"can you give me my money?" i ask my parents impatiently.

"no, you need to get a job." my mom says sternly.

i laugh.

"oh my gosh, that was a funny joke.... so when are you giving me my money?" i ask.

"get. a. job." my mom claps out.

"you're crazy if you think i'm getting a job." i snap at my stupid mother.

"daeva! all you do is sit around all day, you don't do anything to earn this money we give you. you're so greedy! you just want more more more." my mom rambles.

"oh shut up! we've had this talk so many times! just give me my money, now!" i yell.

i'm starting to get angry now because i need money, without money what am i?

"do not speak to your mother like that!" my father yells.

"then tell her to shut the fuck up and give me my money!" i yell back.

"just give her the damn money, mila." my father says.

"no! i will not just give it to her! she's so spoiled." she shouts at him.

"don't yell at me as if it's my fault. it takes two to tango, babe!" he shouts back.

i cannot stand this stupid ass argument so i leave and grab mom's purse and take her credit card out.

i go upstairs on my laptop and start shopping!

it's not my fault that i love money, i've been raised that way. money grows on trees in my mind. at this point, i need money or all else will fail.

everyone's gotten used to just giving me money at home because they know i'll throw a tantrum if they don't. i'm not even embarrassed that i throw the dumb tantrums. i literally will do anything for money.

anything.

i've done way worse than steal from my mom for some quick cash.

i'd rather not go into detail.

but just know, i always get my way no matter what.

especially when it comes to money.
