Love by detours
I've had to put up with a lot of crap in my life... but never in a million years did I think I'd become one of those women who gets beaten by their partner. Yet here I am, sitting on my best friend's couch with a black eye any boxer would envy, bawling my eyes out.
And as if that wasn't shitty enough, my mother decides to call me, radiating sickening Disney princess happiness, to announce some wonderful news. She's gotten married! For the third time - while I can't even manage to find a decent boyfriend...
And of course, she didn't just marry anyone. Oh no. She had to marry the father of the four little bastards who made my school years a living hell.
FUCK MY LIFE!
Now, my dearest mother is summoning me home for a big happy family reunion. She wants peace, love, and rainbows. I want the brothers' hearts neatly sliced up and served on a silver platter...
We'll see who gets their way.
Turns out, I can hold a grudge for a very long time.
