Chapter 5

That bitch. Why did she do it? Spill the beans to a small child. What can be the reason. I thought that the bad feelings between them had almost been buried. So why has it reared it's head all of the sudden know? What was said? Or was Claudia waiting for the right moment, when Laura was just old enough to understand it but not have full compression her way of turning her against us or more applicably Mom. I can't let this drop it's time for an conformation.

Sydney stepped out of her car and strode purposefully to Claudia's door and pounding on it.

"The door was pulled open very quickly like someone was lying in wait for her to turn up.

"Ah Sydney, so nice to see you so soon. So what can I do for you?"

"Cut the bullshit Claudia. You know why I'm here. You told Laura."

"Told Laura what?" Claudia tried to ask innocently.

"About my Mother"

"Oh that."

"Oh That! Are you such a spiteful woman that trying to destroy your Granddaughter's life doesn't register with you."

"I wasn't trying to destroy her life. She was asking questions about William and I saw........."

"Let me guess the project opportunity to have some payback. I thought you two had resolved the majority of feelings, that you had forgiven her after you found out her reasoning."

"That is where you are sadly mistaken Sydney. I only tolerated her because of my Son, I wanted to stay in his life, and the only way I could was by accepting her nut know since you split up I don't need to."

"So I split up with Michael and you then decide to again destroy her life. Seeing you know how much she loves me, Laura and my sister."

"Sydney, when are you going to wake up. Your mother is a vile despicable creature who only cares about herself and what she can manipulate out of others."

"So your still believing what Lauren told you all them years ago. Haven't you realised from what she has done around you that she isn't all like that."

"It's just a persona. A nice as pie attitude, she puts on in public, but underneath it all she is a cold hearted bitch."

"Actually the bitch is the persona. Mom is a family person, loyal, trustworthy."

"No she isn't and one day you and Laura will end up like her, cold hearted and hating the world."

With that stinging comment she reached up and slapped her across the face.
