Living with my choice

“ Clara, aren't you done, get your ass down here. “ I heard my mum's voice from downstairs .

“Am coming ma. “ I yelled back and I heard her scoff. Today is my first day going to Clifford High school.

We moved to this city recently with my mum and she says it is a must. I must attend school after the last incident that happened in my former school.

Furthermore, I actually don't want to talk about it. I just hope you'll find new friends, not some f* cking betrayers.

I grabbed my bad pack after combing your hair and wearing my sneakers. I ran downstairs, I met your mum making breakfast, and she smiled at me .

“ Good morning mum” I kissed her, and she ran her hands through my hair.

“Mum" I chuckled, fixing your ruined hair and she rolled her eyes.

I sat around the table eating when I caught mum staring at me . I raised a brow at her.

“ Mum" I dropped my fork and she cleared her throat. Like it's actually an important thing she wants to say.

“Honey you're starting a new school, that means new Friends. Please don't make friends like your old ones" She stared at me waiting for my reply, since we guys moved into this new city, this has been her anthem in the house. Reminding me of the friends I made that almost led me into drug dealing. And when the police got involved, they tagged me along with them. We had to move into a new city with my mum. But my mum doesn't seem to understand that I have gotten rid of the bad energy and friends, I won't repeat the same mistakes again. I looked at her sulking.

“Mum I have heard it like a billion times, my ears hurt already” I tried to hide the fact that I was hurt by what she said . I were on the inside not your ears.

“ If you say so, honey." She smiled, chewing on her food, and I rolled my eyes.

“Mum you said that yesterday, but you're repeating it today" I suddenly lost my interest in eating, I just wanted to get away from her, from everything I just needed fresh air.

I stood up grabbing my bag. I kissed her cheeks, she stared at me in surprise, before she could say anything else, I already left the house.

I know she's concerned about my well-being but it's hurting me every day.

Likewise, I stopped a taxi, but he looked at me and zoomed off.
