It was as if the sun was dying. I walked into the living room and my single mom was sitting on the couch watching her favorite TV show, "Bold and the Beautiful". It was 9:47 and I was two hours late for school. "Mom why didn't you wake me up?" I moaned. She turned off the TV and walked towards me. "Sorry honey. The power went out last night. I didn't see what time it was." "Uuhhh!" I yelled, as I went to my room. I slammed my door. I was sick and tired of her crap. she always an excuse, and never respected anything I did.
