Mommy Mearest Novels & Stories

Serena explained as she took over Maureen's cell phone when the owner picked up the plate of rice again. "Relax, Auntie." Aya could breathe a sigh of relief. "Maureen?" She called out to the eldest who was busy eating the leftovers again. "Yes, my mom, the youngest and most beautiful woman in the world." Maureen's mumbling while eating really cheered Serena up. "There was a delivery from the boutique." Mama's backdrop shifted to a brighter room. From the look of the micro lights with Maureen's name on them, it's clear that the brick-orange room is Maureen's most comfortable place to go to dreamland.

I'm not a wuss in any way, but I'll definitely run for my life if I see one. I love cats most of all. I usually see dogs as playful, loving animals( well, most dogs). But cats seem really smart to me. They have calculated motives and actions. And despite being small, they're aggressive if need be. I had a cat when my dad was alive. Actually, my mum did. Her name was Snow( and no, the cat wasn't white) and I know I liked watching Snow lick herself or play with her toys. Mum wouldn't let me go near her because at the time, I was pretty young. Maybe six years old, I don't really remember.

After I started college, Mom said she'd send me money in installments. "Lucia, you're an adult now. I want you to learn how to manage money, so I'll give you your living expenses in installments." I figured she meant monthly. Maybe weekly, worst case. Then move-in day came. Mom walked around the cafeteria, checked the prices, and sent $8 to my payment app. I stared at my phone. "Mom, did you send the wrong amount?" She smiled. "Silly girl. That's your lunch money for today. I checked already. Just get the cheapest grab-and-go meal. "From now on, ask me for money before each meal." I froze. So by installments, she didn't mean monthly. Or weekly. She meant one meal at a time. By da

I say as I feel tears threatening. “You have worked so hard for this, my little Mad Hatter. And you know where to find us. You won’t ever be alone, sweet pea. We are just a quick phone call or drive away. You’ll see us so much you’ll get sick of us. This is your destiny, Maddie. Not stuck in the circus of River View’s packhouse. I love you, bigger than Pi is infinite and I am so proud of you. I couldn’t have asked for a better daughter. I am so happy the Goddess blessed me with you.” Mama engulfs me in a huge hug, which I can’t say is easy for either of us because of her big belly. One of my siblings takes this moment to kick and it launches me backward.

Danielle and I were busy weaving in and out of the crowds in the enormous conference centre, heading to meet Iain before the event officially started. I spotted him just as he saw me, waving to get my attention. He was standing with another man, slightly taller than him—a man I wouldn’t mistake anywhere. It was Andrew. “Amy!” Iain exclaimed. “It’s so good to see you. It’s been too long!” “I know!” I replied excitedly, running into his arms. “You have no idea how much I’ve missed you!” “And Danielle, look at you!” He continued, “You look like a different person!”

“My other mommy said she was a witch. I don’t want to go to the bad space and get on fire.” “You have two mommies?” Royal wondered what she was doing because this was information, he’d put on the intake form when he’d filled it out online. “I have Mommy Mindy and Mommy Famke.” Royal’s heart clenched as she addressed Famke as Mommy Famke. Famke would probably cry her heart out at the name. He told himself it was a good thing. A good name. Precious knew and acknowledged she was her mother. “You’re lucky. I only have one Mommy.”

he muttered as he bounced his head, a frown playing between his eyebrows. He looked visibly angry, but as I was about to sidestep him, my aunt appeared. She was the reason I rushed back home. She must have been worried since I hadn't shown up for almost three days. I tried to look composed as she walked into the living room. Aunt Hannah had been my only family member since the death of my parents. Being my mom's older sister, I saw my mother in her sometimes, and it was all the comfort I needed. "Welcome. Where have you been?" she asked, her gaze watching me from top to bottom and back up again.

Mommy reassures me with genuine enthusiasm, extending her hands towards me as I work hard to stay steady on my feet. Filled with anticipation, I take a step forward, trying my best to maintain my balance as I cautiously extend my other foot towards mommy. Overwhelmed by fear of stumbling, I can't help but let out a whimper. “Don't worry, my darling, you're safe. Mommy will always be here to catch you,” mommy reassures me, her face beaming with a comforting smile.

Dean was still standing, dripping on the doormat in the kitchen when Omem entered. ‘I am Moon, Maddie's grandmother,’ she said, ‘nice to finally meet you.’ Dean nodded. 'Mutual.' She smiled as he stood on the mat until Maddie returned with a large towel. When he sneezed, she thought it was enough, she got involved. ‘Maddie we do have some spare clothes in the top of the closet, which he can trie on. And there must be a free bathroom where he can warm-up, ‘she said.

she asked, her curiosity seemingly endless. "No. New York." Her eyes widened. "America? Mama said we might go there someday." Mama. Estella. She was calling my wife "Mama." "Your mama," I said carefully. "What's she like?" Arielle beamed. "She's the prettiest. And the smartest. She's a CEO, which means she's the boss of everybody." Her face suddenly fell. "But she's sad today. She didn't want to come to the park."
