-1Ch.16: The Mother and Daughter Fight.
"Taraneh, you're too young to love." Caoimhin sighed "I don't know why you are so persistent to find it young." Tara gazed at Caoimhin with her ice blue eyes. "I don't really know why I am either, Caoim." Tara thought aloud. "Come on, Lets go you should get some homework done." Caoimhin said trying to change the subject now that it was getting awkward. He gathered up his belongings and slid down the staircase railing. Then guided the girls to the car and took them home. Once at home Taraneh saw it was about 4:00pm and she decided to take a relaxing bath. She went to the Bathroom and turned the handles to the tub and put the plug in. Steam rises from the tub as Taraneh slowly undressed. She careful stepped in the tub and turned of the water as she poured the Bath sand in the water. The bath sand smelt strongly of strawberries and roses. She sat there for a little bit then began to scrub her neck and body with an old wash rag and some soap. When it came time to do her hair she slinked down into the water and stayed under water for at least 10 to 15 seconds. She applied the shampoo then rinsed then followed with, conditioner and then rinsed again.
After, she finished her bath she drained the water and grabbed her towel and wrapped it around her as she stepped out of the tub. Her sister, she found asleep on the couch as she slid out into the hallway and tiptoed to her room. There she dressed and found on her bed a box with a blood red rose on it. She didn't find a note but she thinks she knows who it's from. She slowly opened it and found a pink dress in it and a little stuff animal monkey. The monkey confused her "why would he give her a monkey?" Taraneh knowing she had homework she never finished from days ago put the gift aside and began to work tediously till she heard a knock at her door and her mother walked in. "Oh, Taraneh thank God your ok!" she exclaimed. "Mom, I told you I am sixteen I know how to handle myself." Taraneh sighed. "Tara, I thought the same thing when I was your age but look what happened to me. I had your brother at 17 and now I work for the damn post office. I'm not saying I regret it but it is a hard life and I don't want you to go through it." Taraneh's mom said. "Mom, I'm not you! I'm not the least like you I'm going to finish school and get a job that will let me be there all the time for my kids. I'm not letting my kids grow up not knowing me well nor their Father and rose by their grandparents." Taraneh said obliviously annoyed.
"Tara." Her mom sighed as she got up and walked from the room. "She always treats me like a child I'm sixteen and I barely cause her trouble. I'm always a delight in school, I never fight with her about going to school even when I'm sick. I rarely argue about my chore. Why can't she get I'm just an unstructured and feeling person and not structured and Thinking person. I know I'm Intuitive and often aren't down to earth but I do have common sense." Tara sighed to herself angrily.
