Chapter 19- Leave
ZARAH~
Saturday morning, the one day I could catch a breath from the waves of the weekday. Elliot was still fast asleep in his room even though it was already 10 am, I usually let him sleep in till whenever he wanted since school kept him busy throughout the week. I poured myself a cup of coffee and laid comfortably on the couch, folding my legs on the cushions and resting my head on the chair arms as I looked through my emails to see if there was anything I missed before I could truly relax but thank God there wasn't, I entered into my Netflix and was about to watch a movie when I heard a knock at my door.
"Urghhhhhhh" I groan annoyed at whoever it was that was disturbing my peace, "who is it?!" I shouted, refusing to get up from the chair, there was no response.
"Who is it?!" I repeated and still there was no response, now I was really getting annoyed, I grudgingly stood from the couch and sluggishly walked to the door, I looked through the peephole and saw no one, 'probably just the kids in the neighborhood' I thought as I turned back and was about to go back to the couch when I heard the knock again, my blood boiled with annoyance as I turned around and aggressively pulled the door open, immediately I saw who had been knocking I felt my stomach twist with disgust and anger.
"Hey, Zah," my mother said, my eyes glowed, and holding tightly onto the hinges of my door was all I could do to hold back the anger I felt.
"What do you want" I asked, hatred and anger filling every word I spoke.
"I just wanna talk Zah," she said her voice soft and calm but I was enraged.
"Don't call me that!" I shouted, but I quickly calmed myself down afraid that I would wake Elliot.
"leave" I demanded in hushed tones.
