The Joke Falls On Me

love and affection

That morning maxine was woken up by the smell of coffee, 'mom' Maxine thought to herself, she then flung her legs to the side before planting her bare feet onto the cold wooden floor, maxine stretched out making her back arch perfectly, she then stands up from the bed before walking into the bathroom, Maxine then switched the lights on, her eyes squinted from the lightness that shine in them, after a second of adjustment maxine looks at herself into the mirror,

Maxine skin was pale,her eyes held with dark circles, lips pale but still had an tint of pink, Maxine was lifeless, reaching an hand into her hair only making her grimace, From the greasiness from her curls, Maxine huffed out the wipe her hands onto her pajamas, Maxine then reach over cutting on the bathtub faucet, she turns the taps to hot temperature,

maxine grabs the hem of her pajamas pant, before grabbing the hem of panties also, pulling them downwards till its falls down her ankles, maxine step out them,

Maxine mind drift back to jokers word from him to her...

''Shes one feisty gal... if you know what i mean?'' joker say winking before chuckling darkly

Maxine momentarily slaps herself for thinking such a thing, Why she was thinking so off?, Maxine continue with stripping from her clothes until she was exposed, maxine steps a foot into the hot temperature water, at first maxine hissed from the sudden of hotness against her cold skin, but after a minute maxine carefully slips in the hotness, after being fully in the water maxine deeply exhale with relief, after a month in two weeks maxine finally let her guard down an smiled, not just any smile but an genuine smile

But maxine knew deep inside that this happiness wasn't gonna last long, she know he'll come back she can feel it,
----------------------------------------------------

Maxine was now out the bathtub, Maxine wore an purple long sleeve shirt with an 'v line' neckline, with some black high waisted pants, she top it off with some low top white sneakers,
Maxine hair is an a high ponytail with curls dangling down to frame her face,

Maxine walk downstairs only meeting an empty living room, Maxine figure that her mom was an the kitchen, she walked into the kitchen before once again meeting an empty kitchen also, Maxine caught glimpse of an note onto the counter top, Maxine walks over and grab it

Joke

Maxine furrowed her eyebrows 'what the hell?' Maxine thought, she balled the note up before throwing it away,

Maxine walk over to the cabinet and grab an coffee cup, preparing to make herself some coffee,

Maxine Impatiently taps her finger onto the counter taps, turning her head towards the window, Maxine saw children playing in the snow, her ears was filled with laughter,

'Pure souls' Maxine thought

Maxine was interrupted by the coffee machine going off, she grabs her coffee, Maxine then grabs some coffee cream, pouring 4 coffee creams making then reaches for the sugar, Maxine pulls sugar into her coffee, once she was done she stirred her coffee, Maxine then sat onto the kitchen table and started sipping her coffee not caring about how hot it was,

"Maxie" a voice say huskily into Maxine's ear, Maxine twirl around to face the joker to give him a piece of her mind, Empty

Maxine stands up from the table forgetting about to coffee, Maxine goes into the living room, she grab her fur coat from the coat rack before throwing it around her shoulder after putting her arms inside of the sleeves, Maxine finally let down her curls, she then puts an beanie over her head,

Just like that Maxine walks over an unlock the front door locks, the cold wind blew Maxine in the face hard making her shivered, Maxine locked the bottom lock of the door before slamming the door behind her, Maxine walked down the stairs before walking off in Gotham's Winter weather,

Later that day
-----------------------------------------------------

Maxine was walking back home, Maxine had went to the park that earlier just to keep her mind activated, she had a little peace there without thinking of Joker, And his plans,

Once her house came in view Maxine saw that her mother car was here, She knew she had some explaining to do once she gets face to face with her mother,

Maxine walks up the staircase, Maxine then took a deep breath before bringing her finger to the doorbell,

Ding dong

The doorbell rings from inside, Maxine then heard heavy footsteps coming towards the door, Making Maxine Nervous shift her posture, Then there was the sound of door locks getting unlock

Here it comes, Maxine thought,
The door then was swiftly open wide reveling Katie making a face that say 'You have alot of explaining to do', Maxine Just looks down From the uncomfortable stare her mother was giving her,

What to do?....what to say!!!!... Maxine thought, Maxine was about to speak but Katie beat her too it "house now" Katie's say, Maxine haven't move this made katie furious "NOW" Katie yelled lowly for only Maxine can hear before moving out the way so Maxine can go through,

Maxine jumped out her skin from her mothers shocking action, She then went inside of the house, Katie shuts the door before locking the door, Katie turns her attention to Maxine once again,

"Are you fucking crazy Maxine?, You know it's is dangerously out there" Katie say before once again continuing "Say if anything could've happen to you out there Maxine I'm so sorry for yelling at you but I have no choice but to yelled I'm am your mother and I want you to be completely safe under my will" Katie now was broken washer machine from breaking down crying,

For the first time Maxine was speechless, and moveless, She couldn't believe right before her eyes Her mother was crying her heart out for her,

Maxine walks over to katie before embracing her with an big hug that Maxine have ever inflicted to an person, this hug was special, Katie sobbed into Maxine's shoulder, after calming down Katie's lift herself up, an look up at Maxine face before gripping onto the side of Maxine face affectionate, Maxine looks into her mother eyes

"I'm sorry mom...I'm really am I'll never do it again sorry will you forgive me" Maxine says all this while looking katie in the eye,

Katie face them broke into an genuine grin before following by an softly chuckle she kissed Maxine onto the forehead "I forgive you honey" Katie says to Maxine,

Maxine knew her mother was telling the truth, Maxine then leaned into Katie more,
