Mavis' Point of View
As soon as I closed the door..
“Who are those from?” My mother asked. My terror of a mother.
“My friends, mom..”
Her gaze at me was like a blade. “What for?”
“It’s my birthday..”
“Is it?” Her words are, too. “Well then, throw those away. Cheap things are not meant to be kept, most especially treasured.”
“B-But mom..” I pleaded.
She breathed heavily before speaking again. “You look exactly like your father. And it gets my blood boiling. He left me with a nuisance that only reminds me of him.” And then comes a bad cough.
I was their only child. Mom became like this when dad left him for another woman. She always treat me like I’m not her own flesh and blood, but I never get used to it. Day by day it’s a burden to my life..
Someday, I’ll just lose it. I will be a body with no mind and soul if this doesn’t stop.
“Go to your room.” She commanded me. I quickly followed and locked the door. From inside, I can still hear her coughing.
I don’t want to throw these precious things away.. My special friends put effort to give me these gifts.. I’m not exaggerating but, this is the happiest birthday that ever happened to me.
