Drunk is the New Sober

(One Direction and 5SOS members included)
"Good morning, Isys!", my mother exclaimed. Her face was sweaty and she looked really tired from the party last night. She leaned in to kiss me on the forehead; her breath smelled of alcohol and cigarettes. I held my breath while she was so close because I didn't like the smell.

I yawned and said,"Oh, good morning! How was the party last night?"

Her face brightened. She exclaimed,"Oh it was marvelous! I loved the food they had there. You would've liked it too. I can't wait until it's time for you to start drinking. We will have so much fun!"

Her voice was slurring and it sounded like she was daydreaming, but every morning every adult acted like she was right now. I was used to it. I questioned,"Why do you HAVE to drink alcohol after you are thirteen?"

My mother shrugged,"I don't care, it's free and it's fun. Obviously it isn't going to hurt you if the rulers insist on it. I mean, alcohol is good for the soul and it makes everything fun."
