I RUSH💨💨 down my steps and grab the key to my mom room which seems to be on the table i then RUSH💨 back upstairs and unlock the door. I see my dad who i haven't seen in literally 8 years and my mom fist fighting. But really all i see is my dads fist. He putting her hands down trying to get control. I mean do they not see me standing here cause I'm completely shocked at this moment and i scream" You immature DUMMIES! They look up. I mean do you see a boy in his room screaming and crying like how dumb could you get? I question. Listen honey your dad got carries away. She says starting to sit up. Im sorr- i interrupt my dad. You've said sorry to often don't you have better things to do seriously how long will this last? They both stand up. My mom fixes her hair with blood under her eye and her lip is busted. Can you please get me a tissue honey? She asks. Sure. I say. I give her the tissue. Than- i interrupt her. Its not for you its for Jason cause he has been crying this whole time because of you stupids... Don't be childish mom like you haven't been already? I say. I see in my moms eyes that shes guilty but this time i dont care there literally is no "I'm sorry" this time. I used to just sit in my room and CUT✖ but not this time because that was no help. Her mistakes shouldn't cause me to make mistakes. She gave the tissue to my bro and she went in her room. I hate to put it like this dad but next time i see you put your hands on a women I'm calling the police you've gotten away with too much crap. I say as i cross my arms. Do what you've got to do. He says carelessly starting to walk down the steps. Thats what you've been saying since day 1 dad thanks for the advice! I yell down the steps. Listen i try but- i interrupt him. So tell me when you TRY whats the definition of try and how'd you take it into consideration? I question. He huffs and walks out the door. After i hear the door shut i say" Exactly. My mom is rubbing on Jason's back probably making up some cheesy excuse about what just went down. Shut it and leave. I say pointing to her bedroom door. Shouldn't i get some respect? She mumbles while walking. Huh think about that. I say back to her. You okay big fella? I ask him. Yeah he says showing a nice smile. Good now did you eat? I ask him. Sure did. He says. Good now get some sleep for tomorrow kay? I say tucking him into bed. Im tired any who. He says while yawning. Ok goodnight. I say turning his light off. Goodnight. He says. I leave his room. Im used to this routine. My mom either arguing with me or arguing with my low life dad but whatever ill be a better mother than she'll ever be. I do my midnight routine jump into bed and sleep😴
