I looked up at my mother. She had her judge mental fake smile plastered on her face. For the first time in my life I felt like speaking up. I was done with getting shit for everything I did.
"Actually, mother, I live here and I've lived here since you kicked me out and I quite enjoy living here" I said harshly. She looked at me startled. I took a sip of my water before taking another bite out of my food.
The air in room turned from nervous to thick and unbreathable.
"Ok. Well what do you work as now? You know to pay for this apartment an all" she asked with still a judgmental tone in her voice.
"Right now, nothing, really" I said blankly shrugging. Right now I felt really confident in myself and I was ready to let it all out.
"Nothing?" My mom asked seemingly annoyed.
"No" I said giving her a mocking smile.
"How do you pay your bills then?" She asked harshly.
"Well, I used to work for Yoongi" I started.
"As what?" She asked harshly holding her glass of water in her hand.
"As his maid mom, I worked as his maid" I said harshly looking at her with a smile. I knew my mom wouldn't be happy to hear I wasn't working some fancy ass job. But I was happy. I meet Yoongi trough that job and I would never take that previous job and try to forget it or erase it.
My mom gave me an angry and half disappointed look.
"But right now he's helping me out while I try to find a new job" I explained now in a softer tone.
"Maybe if you had finished school, you wouldn't have to work these low class jobs" my mom said now raising her voice.
"That's what I'm trying to do mom! I'm trying to save up money so I can go to university" I explained tears forming in my eyes.
"It's a bit hard when your family doesn't support you, or even try to help you out" I said in a lower voice trying to keep my tears from falling down my cheeks.
"You put yourself in this situation! You did the drugs and destroyed our family!" My mom yelled at me with her finger pointed right at me.
"You should have been there for me!helped me out, and supported me trough it!" I yelled at her the tears overflowing and running down my cheeks.
"You're the one who gave up on me!" I yelled. I realized the situation had gotten heated quickly and I sat back in my chair and wiped my tears away.
"Our family was destroyed without my help" I commented. I could tell my mom's eyes Where on me with a death glare.
"Dad would have cheated on you without my help" I snapped.
"Don't bring that episode up" she snapped back obviously not wanting to bring up the incident.
"I understand why he did it" I said looking up at her. I saw she was hurt by my comment but I didn't care.
"You're a horrible wife. You're bossy and so incredibly judgmental" I laughed ironically whiles tears rushed down my cheeks.
"I think we need to go now" she said sitting up. Her voice was shaky and I knew she was hurt. But it was time for her to hear what I had kept in for years.
Both my mom and dad quickly got up from their chairs. Mom walked harshly towards the door. She harshly grabbed her jacket.
I sat up from my chair. I had one last question to ask her.
"Why did you come here tonight?" I asked in a low voice.
"Candice we want you to come home" she said looking at me with soft eyes.
"Why?" I asked not believing her.
"You finally got your life back together. You can come back now" she explained. They only wanted me home when I was their perfect daughter who got it all together.
"I never want to come home. I never want to see any of you two ever again" I said harshly. I blinked away the tears who desperately wanted to run down my cheeks.
It was the truth. I lived happily without them. They didn't care about me unless I was perfect and had now flaws.
My mom huffed and made her way out of the door, my dad following her. They closed the door harshly behind them.
I immediately placed my hands over my face sobbing.
Yoongi came up behind me and turned my body towards him as he pulled me into his chest.
"I'm so sorry Candice" he said softly. I sobbed into his chest feeling like I had just been kicked out again.
That was probably the last time I would see them. I felt like a failure. My mom didn't care neither did my dad.
Even when I had survived without them they didn't even say they were impressed or happy for me. They only cared about everything I didn't have and everything I had done wrong.
Maybe I was a failure. Maybe I should have gone home. Maybe they finally would be proud of me, Finally care and love me like parents should do.
"I'm a failure Yoongi" I sobbed. Letting my Mom into my life again hadn't brought me any happiness, only sadness.
"You're not. Don't say that" he said trying to reassure me.
"I am. I don't have a job, a nice apartment or even a car a bought myself. I have nothing" I said my voice shaking.
Yoongi pulled me away from him. His hands on my shoulders. He looked at me with a serious face.
"You don't need all of that to be successful. You got people who care about you. People who loves you and someone who loves you. regardless if you have a nice car or not" he said looking at me with kind eyes. I gave him a soft smile trying to reassure myself with his words.
Was I forever doomed to feel like a failure? Was people loving me going to be enough? Was I ever going to get the life I always wanted.
