In a Mood
Monica and Ms G asked me if anything was wrong.. I lied.
After school today, I called my mom and asked her if she could pick me up. She asked me if I could find another way because she was getting ready to go to sleep. I reluctantly agreed. I got a ride home with Monica. When I got home she was watching movies.
My brother called after wrestling practice to be picked up, and my mom let me drive to pick him up and drop myself off at the game. I asked her if she could pick me up after the game. She said yes.
After the game, I called her and asked her to come pick me up. She asked me if I could find another way. I said yes, she sounded tired anyway. I got a ride home with Monica (like I do after EVERY game and EVERY practice).
I'm sick of having to ask other people for rides. If my family has means of transportation there's no reason for me to have to depend on other people!
And now, she's changing hours at work. I'm never going to see her. If I forget something at home, she won't be able to bring it to me at school because she'll be working. When I get home, she won't be there. She might be home when I wake up in the morning, but I doubt she'll feel like giving me a ride to school. In fact, I doubt she'll talk to me at all.
She's working two jobs now. If not having a relationship with my mom is the price I have to pay for having nice things like a computer in my room, and money for local shows.. I can do without!! I don't remember the last time my mom and I had a meaningful conversation where maybe she taught me something or I was better prepared for life because of it.. I want a mom like that.
