zigginah

Tear-stained cheeks, my mascara was now an ugly smudge after being ruined with all the crying I had been doing for the past hour. I could not recognize myself as I looked through the mirror. The more I stared at myself the more the tears. I could hear them in the next room. Their moans enraged me and made me feel like throwing up. I retched but nothing came out. 

Disgust is what I felt.


My life had turned out to be a chaotic mess and I wondered what I had done to deserve all that. I was a good person or so I believed.

I smiled through the pain and thought to myself that everything was going to be okay. I did not believe that myself but I had to tell myself to keep going or I would be stuck in a loop with my past trying to set myself free...

DAWN.

I did not know how much I had missed this place until I came back. It had changed so much but the things that happened in the past had not changed a bit.

My mum greets me on the doorstep immediately I get off the car. She was so excited when I called her and said I'll be coming home for Christmas. The smile on her face makes her look more lively not forgetting the fact that she looked like she had lost a couple of pounds since I last saw her seems like it was due to the chemo.I EVer knew how much I missed my mother until I saw her. No matter how much she had wronged in the past all I could think about was if I was in trouble she was the person I could come to. She always felt like home because she was home and everybody needed that .

"Hey",I greet her after entangling myself from her embrace .

"Hey come on in , you actually came in time I am baking some cookies come help me",she says.
