Til Revenge Do Us Part

Charlotte

I can never tell you how my dreams are set to begin but for me the endings are always the same. It ends with me panting and screaming at the top of my lungs and while my mother lay in a pool of her own blood.

Her beady eyes staring back at me as my dad whispers back that it was my fault that she was dead and telling me that I killed her.

..

 I was pulled out of my dream when I heard the sound of loud knocking on my door. “Wake up Char. No one has time for you to sleep in.” I heard my sister yell from the other side.

I mentally cursed myself as I  slowly pulled my eyes and I sighed as I looked around my closet sized room and turned to my alarm clock as I noticed that it was only 6 in the morning. I stood up slowly from my old mattress before making my way over to open up the door to see Ashley standing on the other side as she stared at me with a deep frown on her features. I looked at her with a raised eyebrow as I questioned what she was doing there.

“Can I help you?” I asked as I took in the sight of her silky night gown and had fuzzy slippers. There were times like these when I envied her and the level of attention and care that our parents gave her. It reminded me of the fact that they were never going to give it to me.

“Why are you still here? breakfast isn’t going to cook itself.” she said to me in a hissing and as I looked at her in confusion.

“What do you mean? Don’t you have a chef for that. Oh, mighty princess.“ I asked sarcastically with a raised eyebrow.  I watched as she shrugged her shoulders before a smirk made its way onto her feature. “Well I gave him as well as the maids the day off. I thought they deserved it and so you are going to be doing the cooking. “she said and I knew that it would have sounded shocking to some people but my sister had done much worse.

“Now get up and make breakfast before mum and Andrew wake up. You know how much she hates her late breakfast. “she said as i tried my best to block her out of my thoughts. It was too early for me to go through this.

“Okay how about you take a step back and I will get back to you in a minute. “I said to her and the gullible flop that she was, I watched as she took several steps back. I immediately slammed the door in her face as I raised my hand to lock it.

I heard her let out a high-pitched scream and I chuckled at the sight of her despair. “I am going to tell mum you did that and don’t even think that she will let you get away with this.” I heard her call out from the other side of the door. I only rolled my eyes at her in response as I decided to start getting ready for the day.
