Max POV :
From falling off a swing , i opened my eyes slowly thinking how the hell sand is so soft beneath my head . After few seconds of blinking i realized i was in my bedroom lying on my bed and a pillow resting underneath my head was confirming that i was having a nightmare .
I slowly crept out of my bed making my way to the bathroom for a nice shower . After taking bath , brushing my hair and changing into my jeans and t-shirt i went downstairs to have some breakfast .
I entered the kitchen with my phone checking my mails and whatsapp messages although i hardly get them , while preparing myself a hot cup of tea and salad because thats all i can make . I was so concentrated on my phone that i didn't realize that i had spilled water on the beautiful marble floor .
" Max ? Is that you in the kitchen ? " Mother screamed from her bedroom upstairs .
" Yeah ! Sorry won't happen again " i lied . I'm clumsy AF .
" Better ! I'm trying to sleep here and what the hell are you doing in the kitchen at 6 AM in the morning ? " Mother screamed again .
" I have school ! I told you at night . The winter break is over . "
" Right ! Just whatever you do , do it quietly okay ? I'm trying to sleep here "
" Fine " i said irritatedly .
I was about to take a sip from my tea when i heard the front door open , i cocked my head up to see whose there but inside i knew it was Father .
" Father ? Whats up ? " I said in a greeting manner
He nodded as he opened the fridge and looked inside . " Where is all the milk ? " He murmured .
My heart raced as it occured to me that i used the last bits of milk in my tea . Oh shit ! Dad is gonna be pissed .
" Where is the milk ? " He asked again this time he was looking at me .
" I used it in my tea father i didn't knew you were going to use it i'm so........."
" Really ? You didn't know i drink tea ? "
I looked down at my plate .
" And since when kids need to drink tea in the morning ? " He asked angrily .
" I'm sorry this won't happen again "
" Good ! Now hurry up get me milk from the store " he said closing the fridge door shut .
" Huh ? But ..... "
" What do you have any problem ? " Father asked coming towards me .
" No but i will miss my bus and stores don't open until 7 PM "
" Then you go and wait outside the store " he demanded .
" I will miss my bus " i repeated .
" When does your school starts ? "
" 7:15 AM "
" I will drop you to school on time if you miss the bus . Just go get the milk and do what i'm saying "
I hurried over to the nearest store . I looked inside through the glass window .
" Hey boy what do you want ? " A man asked approaching me .
" I want the milk " i said " please i know its 6:30 AM but i really need it and my bus leaves within 10 minutes .
" Boy do you really think i will open up half an hour early just for your stupid milk obsession " the man laughed as he lit a fag and blow into it .
" You are doing nothing please help me out here " i pleaded " please sir ! I will pay you extra pounds i promise "
" Fine come in "
" Thank you sir " i said after i bought the milk . I quickly ran towards my house as fast as i can . I passed by The Family Park , Candy Shop and last but not the least the bus stand . But while i was running a bus skimmed beside me blowing hot black air at me . Shit !! It was my bus .
I missed my bus ! But Father has got my back this thought made me relieved .
I opened the door of my house . Kept the milk in the fridge . " Father i missed my bus . You promised to drop me off to school "
I couldn't find Father downstairs so i went upstairs only to hear father and mother fighting . I pressed my ear on the door to endure the conversation .
" I can't wait to get liberated " mother shouted
" Same here ! Even i don't want to live with you ! You're pathetic no man would ever love you " father banged his hand at the wooden table .
" No woman will ever love you too . You're hateful "
" Fine leave my house and my son "
" He is not only your son " mother shouted .
" Shut up filth !! You will leave the house and my son you understand ? "
" No this house belongs to me as well . Either sell it and divide the money or leave it "
I didn't want to interrupt them but i had to so i knocked on the door .
" Father you promised to drop me school ! I missed my bus "
" You slow arse ! If you wouldn't have stopped at every shop at your way and running home , you wouldn't be late . Its all your fault so you're gonna be a man and fix your mess "
" But i didn't stopped ... "
" Shut up " father shouted from inside the room .
" How could you be so evil ? . Breaking promises every time "
" I'm evil ? And who are you a keeper ? " Father shouted .
" You're wasting your time honey . Go run to your school you still have 5 minutes "
Without wasting any seconds i started running .
Stay tuned for the next chapter ♥️♥️
