"life is better when you are with the right people and having caring friends"
"mom please i promise i won't stay long" i begged my mom kneeling down so she would let me go, "no Hazel you can't go, it late already"my mom said heading toward the kitchen to prepare dinner, i trailed behind her still on my knees, "but am not alone my friends are going with me" i begged cleaning the sweat trailing down my face, "some thing bad might happen to you and who would help you ?" my mom asked cleaning her hand, "my friends of course" i said calmly trying to control my anger, "i don't trust your friends especially Olivia" my mom said, "but why mom she's a nice girl" i said, "nice you say, she doesn't have manners and talks to elders rudely" my mom said turning to face me, "but mom you hardly talk to her how do you know she's does not have manners?" i asked confused, "never mind, honey no mother want to lose their child am trying my best to keep you safe" my mom said softly caressing my cheek, " no mom you are wrong" i said angrily standing up from my current position am tired of her telling me what to do, am tired of her lies, "what did you just say child?" she asked slowly facing me with disbelief written all over her face, " you are wrong mom" i repeated boldly right now i don't care what she did to me, "i see- " her sentence was cut mid way when we heard someone knocked on the door, hopefully i prayed it was my dad he is not as strict as mom, "i'll go open the door and see who's there " i said as l walked toward the door, "hey girls" i beamed happily once i opened the door, "surprised to see us ?" Ella asked hugging me, "yeah but thank goodness you all are here my mom won't let me go" i whispered not wanting my mom to hear, "oh, well we are here now and we are going to beg her together" Olivia said, "tonight's gonna be fun" Enid said, "yeah come in and make yourself feel at home " i said and smiled, "thanks" Ella said. "Good evening Mrs Eli" they chorused together like i said earlier my mom don't like them and they are scared of my mom, such's life. "where are you girls going dressed like this?"my mom asked scanning their dressing with her eyes, my mom some times can be nosy, "we are going to the park " Oliver answered with a smile, "don't you girls have work to do at home?" she asked eyeing my friends, "we are less busy ma" Olivia replied calmly, that's why i love her she know the right word to say at the right time, " Hazel isn't going with you girls as you can see she's busy" i looked at my mom fit to be to be tied am not doing anything what the f***! mom i screamed silently.
