Stay inside and hope the power comes back soon

    by: Anonegg Author IconMail Icon
Arms folded across her chest, Rebecca sunk into her chair and felt her nose wrinkle in disgust. It wasn't her bloody responsibility to fix the electronics, and she certainly wasn't going to try it in the nude.

"Screw that." she muttered.

Her mother re-appeared from the basement, and took in the sight of her two daughters. Caitlin was dutifully washing her breakfast dishes in the sink, while Rebecca sat sulking like a petulant child. She sighed.

"So you're not checking the breaker?" she asked.

"No mom. You can do it."

"I can't. I need to check my paperwork before I go to work in case I've left anything in the study. Caitlin, sweetie, have you got much left to do before you go to school?"

"I still need to pack my bag, but it shouldn't take long."

"Um, excuse me?" Rebecca snapped. "Why are you two planning to leave when I'm still stuck like this?"

"What do you want me to do, dear?" her mother asked. "Our entire lives can't revolve around you, you know."

"Do? DO? I want you to go outside and fix the goddamned circuit breaker so I can get my goddamned clothes, you stupid cow!"

A stunned silence filled the room. Almost as soon as Rebecca had uttered the words she regretted it. Caitlin lowered her gaze, focusing only on the sink before her. Rebecca was unable to hold her mother's gaze, and instead looked at the floor.

"Rebecca." her mother said with misleading quietness. "I want you to know right now that I'm very, VERY disappointed with you."

"Mom, I'm-"

"No. You be quiet for a change and listen. I am very disappointed with you. Your laziness. The way you've spoken to me this morning. The way you speak to me every single day. I've had enough of it. From now on, you are going to do your own chores. You are going to look after yourself a little. Is that understood?"

"Yes mom." Rebecca mumbled.

Their mother stared at her for a few moments more, trying to decide whether the apology was sincere or not.

You have the following choices:

1. She gives Rebecca a break

*Pen*
2. She doles out the harshest punishment she can think of

*Pen* indicates the next chapter needs to be written.
