CHAPTER 4
As flora begins to walk home, she begins to absorb what had become of today. She sighs as she got to her front door hoping nothing would happen to her. She already had a bad day at school; she didn't want anything to happen at home again.
As she opens the door she sees her mother on the couch sitting there. She rolls her eyes and knew that idea went right out the door. Her mother stood up with an bottle of alcohol in her hand. She slowly and uneasy walk towards her daughter and smirks, "Who the fuck you think you rolling your eyes at." Flora drops her book bag and begins to walk towards the kitchen. "Mother your drunk. Please sit down." Flora said yelling at her mother from the kitchen. "No….n….nooo…..no. I don't want to. I'll ask…I'll ask…again…time…..who….the fuck you…..rolling your eyes at…..Flora rosary Mathews." Yell her mother holding onto the couch. Flora sighs and walks over to her mother and sits her mother down and says, "No one mother."
"I thought so flora….you know what…you…you" Said flora mother pointing her finger at flora. "What is it now mother?" said flora coming down from the steps. "You... You look just like your mother." Flora just froze there confused. The lady that she knew from her baby years is saying she isn't her mother. What is going on? "What...what are you taken about? You're drunk." Yell flora covering her ears.
Her mother got up and quickly pulls flora hands from her ears. "It's true flora and you're going to….to…um….listen to the story." Flora lets a tear falls down her cheek. "It all started when I was little girl around the age of 7 and your father was 12, my older sister which is your mother was 12. Ever since I met your father I fell in love with him. But no….no my sister didn't know how to treat him. She would be with him for a couple of months then let him go when someone new came around, but no Matter what he still loved her. He wouldn't stop going after her. So one day she went too far and got pregnant. She tried to pin that baby on him. At first he was happy but after a while he went to the doctor and they said he couldn't have kids."
"So after a while he was happy until I told him otherwise. So once you were born he resented you and I've always hated you because you were your mother baby girl. So he slip…..and I push….never mind that. One day she was found dead and that's all we know. That's why I hate you and you get beat your ugly looking girl."
She drunk another slip and sat down, beginning to watch TV. Flora was left they sad and crying. After a while she went to her room. She stood in her room and just cried her eyes out.
