natalie atkins. 2:47 pm los angeles, california.
as i arrived at my house, in my own car, all i could feel was rage. how could juliana do this to me? and with shawn fucking mendes? the guy who is seen out in clubs making out with a new model everyday, a literal fucking player. she knows what i've been through, she could've at least told me or found someone else.
literally anyone else, honestly.
"i'm home!" i shout as soon as i open the front door, immediately ignoring that lingering feeling of rage that was bubbling up, i didn't really want to talk to my mom about my meeting with juliana so i decided against it, the smell of her cooking filling up the room, and i can hear my dad watching a football game in the living room, the occasional blare from the commentator made me aware of that.
"natalie!" my mom shouts, calling me over to the kitchen, i take my shoes off and make my way over, "yeah mom?" i ask, kissing her temple, "hi, by the way."
"how did your interview go?" she questions, kissing my temple back, i shrug and smile, sitting on a bar stool and watching my mom cook dinner, i had offered to help but she said no.
"it was good, jimmy is a really good interviewer i announced my tour, the upcoming album, oh! and also the music video coming tomorrow." i reply and she smiles softly.
"i'm so proud of you darling, i know i don't say it often, but i am."
"oh mom-" i begin but she quickly cuts me off as she shushes me and wipes the stray tear that fell from her face.
"well, want to come help me set the table?" she quips, taking a deep breathe and i nod, shooting her a smile.
"of course, can i invite ally over?" i ask as i put the placemats down, and she nods back.
"go ahead, i made extra." i quickly pulled out my phone from my back pocket, messaging ally to come, she lives quite far but she does have a car, well somewhat of a car so she will be here in about twenty minutes.
i had offered to buy ally a brand new car but she refused, it used to belong to her mom so she has that sentimental value to it but she also said that she didn't want me to buy her anything, like ever. however, she can't stop me if it's her birthday or christmas- so that's my next plan.
my mom reaches for the plates from the drawer and places the cutlery on top of the plates, handing them over to me, i take it over to the dining room and set the plates up whilst my mum brings the food over, placing it on a placemat.
"dad! what do you want to drink?!" i shout, turning my head round to face towards the living room so the sound echoes, he doesn't reply, so i walk over to the living room to see that he's asleep on the couch, snoring away, i laugh and walk back over to my mom who's now in the kitchen.
