My Mother Has A System But Won't Use It Novelas e Histórias

“Actually, what do you plan to do?” “My Mom also did not force me but when I told her I wanted to return to the city, she threw a tantrum. Her health is not good and today she is still taking her medicine. “Dr. Jack, although I’m angry with her, she is still my mother. My heart hurts for her.”

she said to him with just a hint of irritation in her voice. "I'm sorry mom. But how could you be doing exercise in this incredible heat? Isn't that dangerous? Oh, and another thing, what happened to our air conditioning?" he asked his mother. "You know I can't go through my day without doing a bit of exercise Ryan. And the central air conditioning system crashed last night. It must have overpowered or something but I spoke to the company and they said they couldn't get a technician out here until sometime next week. We are going to have to deal with this heat for a few days." she said to her son with obvious annoyance in her voice.

Scarlett’s Point of View “Mom, how are you feeling?” A warm, grateful smile spread across my mother’s face as she squeezed my hand. “I’m doing well because of you—I was able to take my medicine on time with no worries.” She paused, her loving eyes searching mine. “How about you? Are you overworking yourself? Please, don’t exhaust yourself too much. You need a break sometimes.” My stare was unwavering, but I could not cover up the shame that lit my gaze. How was I going to explain that the funds for her treatment were coming from someone she loathed and despised?

What is she saying that she wishes she hadn't picked me up? "Mom, enough," sister reprimanded her firmly. She supported our mother on the other shoulder, her eyes were on mine. Solen and I talked last night and she explained to me the decisions made by Mom, it's hard to object but what can I do? I don't want Mom to be hospitalized again because of hypertension. "Mom, please-" "Look, and don't call me your mother, because you’re not your child! I don't have a child like you. Get out!”

It was painful as hell but I survived. I'm still surviving. “ Are you just going to neglect your child?" My mother asked,worry and slight anger in her voice. She's been trying so hard to bring us back together but I stop trying months ago. She goes to see her grandson almost everyday,it's almost her second home but I don't think her efforts will work. Mine didn't so there's no use. “ I send her more than enought money weekly . If he's sick it's her fault." I shut my laptop because I realised I had been typing rubbish.

People, too, according to rumors no one ever investigated too closely. "One call," I said. "That's all it takes. The System—" "The System monitors behavior it can detect." My father took a long drag of his cigarette. "It can't detect what it can't see. This place isn't registered to us. It's not on any grid. By the time it figures out you're missing, you'll be in a container somewhere in the South Pacific, and we'll be grieving parents getting our shares back." He actually smiled. "Think of it as the family finally contributing something useful."

However, my fear quickly consumes out my guilt. Did something happen to my father or to the family? I accept the call and put it on speaker phone. “Did you wake up? Do you feel all right? I…” My mother’s ragged voice fills the bathroom while she cuts me off. “Honey, stop. My phone is dead, and the staff hasn’t brought me a charger yet, so I’m using your father’s phone.” I wish that I could be there, but it is too risky, especially with Katherine giving me that evil eye all the time.

“For how long this time? Till next week? Next month? Don’t stress us, please.” My mother chimed in before I could respond. “In this house, you must be useful. You are almost thirty, what do you have? No savings, no husband, no car. Look at Maya—she is twenty-four and look how sharp she is. A successful model and influencer.” I closed my eyes. Comparison……my mother’s favorite weapon. I turned toward the kitchen, because arguing would only make things worse. I put the drinks away, cleaned the counter even though it was already clean, then washed the dishes Maya conveniently ‘forgot’ to rinse.

' I asked. 'Oh that. It is just one annoying situation like that but we have got it under control. You just face what you are doing there,' mum said into the mind link but her voice wasn't convincing. 'Mum, are you telling me the truth?' I asked because I didn't believe her. 'Of course son,' mum said. 'Why is Maureen not allowing me into the link then?' I asked. 'I don't know but I guess it is because she is busy right now. We will give you all the details later. But for now, there is no cause for alarm,' mum said before closing the link.

“I’m really not in the mood for this, Mother.” “Oh, I know you’re not in the mood! You’re never in the mood for anything that matters! All day, every day, what is it? Smoke weed, do drugs, get drunk, and fuck bitches who couldn’t name the family we practically own! And your campaign? Do you even care that the election is in 3 months? It’s an easy win, but you’re too useless to even pretend to care!” I tried the silent treatment, fixing my gaze on a spot on the wall behind her head. It was usually my best defense.
