"Baby how could you do this to me!?" A deep voice echoed through the restaurant.
"Hunter..."I said in a half raspy and half damsel in de-stress voice," I...Why..?"
dramatic much ?
" You said you loved me. What about our baby? Did you even think about it while you sat here another man?" He said disgusted .
"I think it's time for me to leave." Said Terry my date as he gave me an all too familiar cold glare.
"Wait! Terry, me explain—" I called out after him as he made his way out of the restaurant furiously.
Hunter and I both turned and looked at each other before we bursted out laughing.
"Oh...oh...the baby thing really put the cherry on top of this one." I said whilst laughing.
"I know! Did you see his face?"
"Priceless, damn we are good." I said and he nodded in agreement.
We both finally caught our breath and looked around the room, a shit ton of people were continuously starring at my best friend, Hunter and I. He was my knight and shining joke that saved me from being bullied by my tyrant of a sister and her plastic crew in high school.
well, this is awkward...

After Hunter dropped me off at home. I took a deep breath and braced myself for hell.
it's now or never ...
Just as I was about to open the door my mother's voice bounced off the walls, " Violet Katherine Quaters!!!" The rage was clearly evident, if this were a cartoon she would probably have smoke coming out of her ears, "How many times do I have to tell you not to pull those stunts with Hunter! Are you honestly that thick headed? Your father needed that contact and it was lost due to your disobedience! I don't know why you can't just be like your sister?" She said in a tired tone," You are going to stop stepping out of line. Next time darling, you are not going to meet the guy. We will just drag you down the fucking aisle!" She yelled.
Keeping my head held high, I went up the stairs to my room and shut the door. I need to breathe, just breathe. I leaned against the door with glassy eyes and slowly sunk to the ground, letting my fountain of pain flow.

" Mummy, look what I got on my—" six year old me, held a piece of paper and was going on about my art but I was cut off by a loud high pitch squeaky voice.
"Mummy! Mummy! Look what I did! " Olivia ,my sister said as she came running into the living room and pushed me out the way. She showed mother her piece of paper that mainly consisted of scribbles.
"Oh, wow. My darling angel this is absolutely beautiful. I think I am going to put it up on the kitchen refrigerator." Mother said hugging Olivia with so much love and affection. She got up and walked towards the kitchen.
" But I still—" I said running after her, as fast as my little legs would take me, "Mummy here's mine." I said whilst smiling at her as I handed her the page but she never took it.
" Enough! Violet stop trying to steal Olivia's spotlight. Not everything is about you." She said in a harsh tone.
"Mummy—" I said but my lips started to tremble and my eyes were glassy.
" Wonderful, Now you are crying. For goodness sake's child, why can't you be like you sister and behave well ? " she said bending down on the ground so that we were now at the same eye level, her cold eyes stared at me as she said," You are nothing but a mistake. Now will you remember your place?" She asked with a cruel smile.
"Yes mother..."

I had never forgotten my mother's poisonous words, they were like a potent venom that killed the happy innocent child back then. My own mother regretted my existence ever since I was six. Olivia will forever be the apple of my parents' eyes. I on the other hand only existed for their benefit and would always only come last for them.
that day I learnt that in this cruel dark world, it's just me, myself and I...
