We Came To Help

Issues

"Mother." I say with a stern voice. I dont know why im even answering to her. I should just walk away and ignore her. I turn my head to face her. I see shes wearing my short baby blue frock with a sweetheart neckline that shes obviously ruined and not washed for a while since it has stains all over it along with rips at the bottom . Her fine damaged blonde hair is thrown back with a piece of brown twine. I couldnt help but notice her eyes. The dark bags underneath from the lack of sleep she got made her look so ill.

"Why, why are you leaving me?" she asks like she actually cares, only took her eighteen years to attempt to.

"I dont want to be here anymore, im not looking after you and father anymore."

"But I need you"

"You've always needed me, but have you ever stopped to think that at one point I might have needed you? No, you didn't, you have always been so selfish. Everything has always been about you and now im helping myself." I answer back to her.

"What about me? What about your dad? How are we going to survive if you dont bring in the food and water?"

"Why dont you figure that out for yourself? you are thirty six years old mother! Instead of wasting your money on fucking drugs why dont you actually buy food and water? Why dont you look after yourself for once! Because believe it or not, im not here to be your source of life!" My voice starts to raise. She makes me so mad. Her selfish ignorance is unbelievable at times.

"Dont go Kirsten, please" i hear her say, i dont hear any sense of emotion in her voice. Its like she doesnt even feel any sense of wrong in her own doings.

"My name is Kalee, Goodbye Kirsten" I walk away from her, leaving like she always left me when I was a child. I can finally leave all the pain behind.

Kyle is waiting for me as I push the door open to back stage. There are five suitcases, one to each band member.

"Right on time Kalee, are you ready to go?"

"Ready as i will ever be" I say with a smile, I have never smiled after talking to my Mother but I couldnt help it when Kyle spoke to me.

"Are you okay Kalee? You look angry or upset" Duece asks me, its sweet how he cares.

"Yeah, im fine, just I saw Kirsten, she was trying to make me stay" I say, they understand the stuff with my family I mean Myles told them enough but not too much, I hope.

"Oh right hun, if you want to talk or need anything at all just tell one of us, okay?" Jaime tells me, I didnt expect him to be the caring type to be honest.

"I will do, but im sure ill be fine thank you" I try to be as confident as possible but my mother always brings ky confidence down, she makes me so uncomfortable, I cant wait to get away from all that.
