Chapter 4: They're all gone

Charmel was walking home from school, feeling exhausted from staying up all night playing video games. She knew she should have slept last night instead of playing all night, but she couldn't help it. The game was so fun and she had lost track of time.

As she neared her house, she could see her mother waiting for her by the front door. Charmel groaned inwardly. She knew her mother was going to be mad at her.

"Charmel I'm going to work in another country so behave and do not do anything that making me mad!" Her mother said

Charmel was surprised by her mother's announcement. "Wait, you're going to work in another country? For how long?"

Her mother looked at her with a stern expression. "For a few months. And I expect you to behave yourself while I'm gone. No staying up all night playing video games or doing anything else foolish."

"No way! I can't leave without you!" Say it with an act but deep inside she was happy she can anything she wants watching anime, reading manga/novel and playing games

Charmel's mother rolled her eyes. "Don't pretend like you're excited to see me go. I know you'll be happy to have the house all to yourself."

Charmel couldn't argue with that. Her mother had seen right through her act.

"I'm going now take care your self, my idiot daughter" her mother get inside to her car

Charmel waved goodbye to her mother as she got into her car. Once her mother had driven away, Charmel let out a huge sigh of relief. She couldn't believe her mother had actually left her alone for a few months. Now, she could do whatever she wanted without anyone stopping her.

Charmel go to her room and see her figure collection, manga, computer games and anime poster are all gone Charmel's eyes widened as she entered her room. She couldn't believe it. All her manga, anime, games, and figure collections were gone. It was like her room had been emptied overnight.

She couldn't understand what had happened. Had someone broken into her house and stolen all her stuff? Or had her mother taken it away on purpose?

Suddenly her mother message her "I forgot to tell you that all your stupid hobbies are taken by me but I didn't take the WiFi and your phone so be grateful 😜".

Charmel couldn't believe her eyes when she read her mother's message. She couldn't believe that her mother had taken all her stuff! "What the hell?!" She exclaimed out loud.

She couldn't believe her mother had the nerve to do something like that! But then again, her mother was always making her life difficult whenever she did anything she didn't like.

Charmel knew she was going to have a hard time living without her hobbies for the next few months.
