Hundred word Challenge: #5 Temper
Relda was over and beyond exhausted with Sabrina's constant, red-hot, uncontrollable anger.
"Control your temper, liebling," she said, exasperated. "You're going to make me old fast."
"You're already old," she heard Puck mutter.
She ignored him.
Sabrina rolled her eyes.
"What's the point in having a temper if I can't use it?" she questioned rudely.
The older woman sighed. "I'm sure you could learn to live without it."
The girl stared at her grandmother, obviously not believing a word she had said.
"Oh, stop being so stubborn," the elderly woman snapped.
"Mom," Jake addressed her. His eyes twinkled. "It's not like you to be hypocritical."
Relda sent her son an angry look telling him that he wasn't making anything better.
He got the message and lowered his head under the heat of his mother's glare.
Turning back to Sabrina she asked, "Could you just try it? For my own personal health, if for nothing else?"
Once again, the young girl just stared at her.
Relda raised her hands in surrender. "Or not."
One day her granddaughter would learn, but for now she could keep her temper.
A.N.:
It's short. Deal with it.
On a less nasty note, thank you everyone who reviewed the last chapter. (emowriter, Sarcastic Freaks, SweetShireen [Cherry], The Queen of Sneaks, and Curlscat)
