Clocking out after i worked my nine to ten i made my way outside waiting on my Lyftz

I worked at a Checkers close to my house. Its not much but its something to get me on my feet.

Its late October so it's just starting to get cold outside. I heard the ping on my phone letting me know my Lyft was here.

I made my way to the car getting in. The whole ride was quite but a not an awkward silence it was comfortable.

"Thank you." I said as i got out the car

I got to the door and put my key in the lock opening the door.

I got hit with the smell if alcohol just like i knew i would. I saw mama passed out on the couch.

"Mane mama wake up." I shook her getting aggravated

"What do you want Moira?" She sucked her teeth

"You smell like fucking alcohol and the house smells like shit Ma when is this going to stop" I fussed picking up the empty Hennessy bottles throwing it away

She's been like this for three years after my sister died. All she does is wake up and drink for the whole day while im gone and then leaves me to deal with her when i come back home tired from work.

My sister's death took a toll on our whole family. I learned to accept the fact she's gone in a better place, and that i cant do anything about it.

"Come on let me get you in the shower you stank." I kissed my teeth

I walked her to the tub and filled the water up for her

I helped her into the tub and gave her a rag

"Mo- Moira you know i lo- love you right baby?" She asked as i got up getting a towel for her

I chuckled because she knows she makes me mad when she gets drunk so she tells me she loves me as a way of saying sorry

I know she loves me and i know the pain eats her up on the inside so she gets drunk to feel numb, but she has to stop

I've been trying to get her some help by going to a therapist but we dont have therapist money.

"I love you too ma." I kissed her forehead

___________

I woke up to my phone vibrating letting me know i was getting a call

"Hello?" I answered with sleep still in my voice

"Mamas wake up im outside." My best friend Kiwi said

"Bruh!" i huffed getting out the bed to unlock the door

She walked in and just stared at my face before busting out laughing
