Your POV

My stomach growled. I smiled. I forgot all about my hunger... Over... '

No. Don't remind yourself.' I walked to the kitchen. Then to the fridge. I looked through the food. A sub caught my attention. I grabbed it, and closed the fridge.

I sat at the table and happily ate my sub. It tasted good. Roasted duck inside, good bit of sauces and spices. Perfection. Mom must have made it, cause John can't cook for shit. Ah, John. The motherfucker of the house. Also known as my new "dad". I grimaced. I hate saying, or even thinking that. I loath him. Loath. And he loathes me. So, we're even. He goes for low blows, I shoot back. He thinks he's great, I remind him he's not.

 Just then there was a knock on the door. So I put my sub down and went to the door. I opened it. It was my parent... Oh, and John too.

My mom hugged me, "Aw, hi honey. I'm so sorry about leaving you all alone. We had to go grocery shopping." That's when I noticed she had two bags in her hand. 

I grabbed them, "Then let me help! We usually buy a lot of groceries, so yeah!" I walked over to the kitchen and I placed them on the kitchen table and walked back to mom. That's when John walked in with four bags. I frowned. I sensed another one of little routines coming up.

"Ah, (Y/N). I missed you. Mind getting some more bags?" John said, nicely. I didn't answer. I just kept walking. I heard my mom sigh and apologize to John, saying that I probably had a bad day. How right she was. But still, I was never sorry about 'hurting' him.

Still I grabbed four more bags and brought them in. Mom brought in three more, and John brought in the last two. I managed to avoid eye contact with either of them. Mom can usually tell when I've been crying. John can complain about why I look 'off'.
