Mother Gone Mad

I only own my OC's!

Lily's POV

I let out a groan while looking at a clock in the gym. It's been 10 minutes since Mother left, and she hasn't showed up yet. She said she wanted to get her phone from a cupboard, right? Then where the fuck could she be?! The changing room was like, a room right next to this one! I turned around to look at the window.

Sun was shining brightly, and it must have been hot outside. Another good reason for me to go back to our room and pretend as if we never were in this gym. What were girls doing with their mothers anyway?

Suddenly, everything changed. The feeling of everything being peaceful disappeared. I was feeling uneasy, and I didn't know how, but I just knew someone was watching me. And not in a good way. I put a strand of hair behind my left ear while resisting the biggest urge to turn around.

And then... 'BEHIND YOU!' That voice in my head warned me once again, and I ducked just in time to avoid getting hit into a head.... By a weight?! I then jumped out of the way to avoid a... Skipping rope?! I quickly turned around to see.... Mother looking at me with the skipping rope in her hand!

"Mother, are you out of your mind?! You do realize you could have killed me by throwing that weight?! And what are you doing with that rope?!" I shouted angrily without thinking. Mother looked at the rope and then back at me before dropping it without another word. "Sorry, I thought there was a bug on the wall and I wanted to get rid of it."

"Without seeing me in front of you?" I asked, my anger slowly rising. "It was an accident!" Mother responded simply. I marched past her and out of the gym while fuming.

While Mother was at the reception asking for something, I was alone in the room. I wanted to call the girls and tell them about the scene with Mother today, but it looked like someone was already calling me.

I opened the compowder and saw Sam and Alex on the line. "Huston, we have a problem!" Sam said. "What's the problem?" Alex asked. "Well, everything was fine until my mother accidentally pushed me off a cliff!" Sam stated, making my eyes widen. "What the actual fuck?" I gaped at the red-headed girl, making her nod. "My thoughts exactly."

"Your mum's acting weird too?! I thought I was the only one!" Clover joined the line. "But what happened?" I asked with a frown. At the same time I was wondering whether I really wanted to hear it... "Stella accidentally tried to drown me in a mud bath!" She explained. Now that was just mental... "My mum's not behaving weird really... Unless you count her accidentally pushing my massage table into heavy traffic!" Alex then said.

Everything was becoming crazier, and crazier... "What about Bryony? Is she behaving weird?" Sam then asked, all three of them looking at me. I frowned. "Apart from her accidentally throwing a weight at me thinking I was invisible and trying to hit me with a skipping rope, nothing really." I finally said, making all of them gape by now.

"I say we meet at the Lobby pronto!" Sam said and all of us agreed. I closed the compowder and put it in my pocket, getting ready to get out of the room but... "WHAT THE FUCK?!" I screamed once I turned around to see Mother looking at me with this murderous look on her face while holding a hairdryer in her hand! "Going somewhere?" She asked sadistically.

At this point, I wanted to do the most reasonable thing. I wanted to scream because Mother was fucking insane! But I never got a chance to scream because I had to duck to avoid her hitting me with that cable. Alright, enough was enough.

I cried in pure rage before taking a pillow off a nearby sofa and throwing it at her. I then tripped her before kicking her three more times as a good measure. "Sorry!" "Sorry!" "Sorry!" I could hear the girls at the doors of their rooms. "Not sorry!" I shouted so Mother could hear while opening the door, slamming them and running downstairs, right after the girls.
