Heartbreak

The Madness Inside

As I went to bed that night, I thought about my worth. I thought about my life, my popularity, my parents, my runaway sister, and my boyfriend. I thought about everything. And with that thought, I fell asleep. "BLING BLING BLING!!!" my alarm rang. As I jumped up, I put on my cute little bunny slippers. Quincy had gotten me those for Valentine's Day. I yawned, and walked downstairs to the smell of hot coffee, potatoes, and pancakes. I knew my dad had woken up early this morning, only I didn't know he was going to be cooking breakfast! I walked downstairs, and greeted my mom with a kiss on her cheek. "Morning sweetie! I hope you had a good night's rest!" she said with a smile, thought from what I heard last night, it was probably fake. "Uh.."I said half-sleep, "I slept fine...but I don't feel to good..I have a bad headache...FROM ALL YOUR YELLING LAST NIGHT!!!" I said abruptly. I don't think she realized what I was talking about until she remembered me running to my room and crying. My dad came in the room and said, "Sweetie, I know it's hard but..your mother and I are trying to make it work!" I couldn't believe it. "I-I ..just..nevermind don't even try to explain it Dad. But..guys what's going on!?" My dad just shook his head and sighed. "Well, your sister will be coming back in a few months..we weren't arguing about our marriage, our marriage is perfectly fine. It was just your sister...Angelica..going to do her own thing.." He started to tear up, so I hugged them both tightly. After that moment, I didn't think to ask anymore questions. I walked over to the kitchen island, which we just got a few months ago, and ate some potatoes and pancakes. I don't really like coffee, but I was really tired today, so I decided to drink half a cup. A few minutes later I was fully dressed and ready for school. My mom offered me a ride, but I told her Quincy was coming to pick me up. Usually, when your in college you stay in their dorm, but I made the decision to stay home with my family.

Quincy came in OUR favorite car. It was a yellow corvette, and he knew I wasn't' like other girls, I loved yellow, not pink. As I buckled the black seatbelt, I told him about my sister and he held my hand. "It's going to be alright love. You know, I haven't seen my cousins in a minute, so you know..uh it's gonna be fine. You just need to trust the Lord ok?" I nodded my head, and kissed him on the cheek. When we finally got to the school, I had hugged him and told him I would see him after class. Then..my phone rang..and what I would hear next would start the madness inside.
