symptoms
It was a rainy day in Brisbane, Australia. Everyone was inside of their homes, with their family waiting for the rain to stop. Some families were watching movies, others were taking an early nap to wait out the rain. However on the top of the hill lived The heeler family. They were having fun, with a game of twister all four of them.
Bluey who was struggling to keep her balance on the red spot. Was a 6 year old blue heeler, so was her father's bandit. Who had a black patch covering the top of his face. And a large black patch on his back. He was tangled with his wife who was a red heeler with white patches all over her body and a dark brown patch on the right side of her face. And lastly the youngest heeler was Bingo she looked just like her mum except she didn't have any brown patches on her face. She was 5 years old. And giggling while watching her family struggle.
"OK my turn, bingo flip the spinny thing" said bandit
"OK" she said happily as she spinned the spinner.
"Left hand on purple" she said
"Oh for Christ sake" bandit was having difficulty moving to the purple. Since It was on the far right side of the paper they were on.
"Come on bandit we believe in you" exclaimed his wife. As she was being crushed by her husband's body.
"OK I almost got it, right the- WHOA" bandit yelled as he fell on chili, she was being crushed by his weight.
He tried to get up but since both of their arms were tangled, it took a bit of effort. For them to get untangled.
"Sweet biscuits bandit I think you need to lose a bit of weight you almost broke my back." She complained as she stretched out her back
"HEY…actually I think you need to gain a
Few pounds, Have you been losing weight honey?" Bandit questioned her
"I'm just trying to watch my weight bandit. unlike you. All you do is eat, and stink up the crapper all day. Wouldn't it bother you to be HEALTHIER." She yelled at him and left the family room.
………….
"Kids I think we should call it a night, Mum doesn't look happy right now"
"But dad, what's wrong with mom?" bingo questioned
Bandit kneeled down to bingo
"It's something you two will experience later on in life but be happy. You don't have to experience it for now. Bandit explained
Chilli was cutting up the carrots for the chicken soup she was gonna serve for her family. She looked tired even though she had a good 8 hours of sleep. It might have been because she woke up every hour to get a glass of water. Each hour she got thirsty, but it wasn't a normal need for water. For her it felt like she would pass out. If she wouldn't get at least a cup of water. So now she always keeps a liter sized water container, With her at all times.
"Mum, when's dinner ready." bluey asked her from the dinner table.
It's almost ready sweetie I just have to- OWWWW FUCKING CUNT. Chili yelled
Bandit heard her cuss and went to check up on her
"Chilli are you ok, I heard you ye-"
"NO I'M NOT OK, I CUT MY BLOODY FINGER."
OK let me just get you the medica-
"IM FINE, just sit down while I finish the food and don't interrupt me," Chili said as she drowned her wound in the sink.
Chili why are you acting like this, I just wanna help y-
"PISS OFF" she yelled at him
Chilli has never cussed this much. There were times where he made her mad Enough. That she would kick him out of their room. And he would have to sleep on the couch. But this was a new type of emotion for bandit. She wasn't mad, She was stressed out.
"Honey I think you need to go sit down, you're not acting like yourself." Bandit suggested.
He was trying to keep his cool. But her constant yelling was starting to bother him.
I said PISS OFF, WHAT ARE YOU A BLOODY YANKER. ARE YOU TRYING TO CONTROL ME!
"Wha- chili that was completely unrelated to this conversation, What's wrong with you." Bandit said
Mum, dad are you two squabbling? Asked bluey she was playing with her fingers.
"Oh no mate this isn't squabbling, THIS IS A BLOODY ARGUMENT."
Bluey ran away crying, she was never yelled at, But she hated it.
"Look what you did, you just yelled at your own daughter, are you proud of yourself?" Exclaimed bandit as he left Chilli in the kitchen, To comfort bluey.
Chili was still mad, but yet she didn't know why. It felt like everything was against her. And all she was trying to do is defend herself. But why would she feel threatened by her own daughter?
Drip*
Drip*
Drip*
She was still bleeding but it wasn't normal. She was bleeding as if she cut through multiple vines In her finger. But she didn't, she just lightly cut herself on the skin on her finger.
"Maybe bandit's, right I should get a bandage."
As she left the Kitchen go into the pantry for some medical equipment to heal her wound. Bluey was in her bed crying to herself. She couldn't believe her own mother had just yelled at her. She knew she did nothing wrong and just asked a question. Which is what hurt her the most being yelled at for no reason.
Bandit opened the door slightly, "Hey mate are you ok" he questioned
"NO mum just yelled at me and now she hates me." Bluey covered herself with the blankets to hide her tears from him.
Bandit went over and sat on the far end of the bed with a worried look on his face. "Listen mate, I don't know what's going on with her. She's all skinny, she won't eat, and she drinks a lot of water. Maybe I should take her to the doctor to check h-
WHAT THE BLOODY HELL ARE YOU LOOKING AT, RETARD.
Bandit just remembered that bingo was left all alone in the dining room. Meaning that chilly was gonna let all her anger out on her.
He leaped off the bed and hurried to the dining room. To see chilly, in a corner with bingo. holding a knife to her throat.
"Mama, please don't hurt me." Bingo cried out.
Listen here you little shit. Ever since you came into this world I've Hated you. You look nothing like me, I should have done an abortion. But they didn't want to do it. And now I'm stuck here with you, A worthless pile of filth. Chili started to dig the side of the knife into bingo's throat. Tears were running down on the knife.
WHACK*
She stopped crying when the knife apparently dropped from her mum's hand. She opened her eyes to see her mum on the right. Appearing to be knocked out.
And then she looked to the left to see her father holding a broken hockey stick. His hand was breathing slowly, frightened to see what he had done.
"Are you ok bingo?" he asked her. She just ran up behind him.
"What's wrong with momma" she asked
I don't know mate, just go up to your bedroom and stay with bluey ok. I'm going to have to call an ambulance.
Bingo listened and left the Kitchen into her room.
Bandit reached for his phone on the table and called 911.
"911 what's your emergency?'' asked a female dog on the phone.
Hello ma'am I just…. knocked out my wife with a hockey stick. She was going batshit crazy and almost cut my daughters throat.
"You did..what?"
