Chapter 13

As soon as I wake up , the first thing that comes to sight is my mum sitting beside me on my bed.

She notices that I'm awake and the worried expression on her face quickly goes away and is immediately replaced with a genuine smile

"oh good you're awake , we need to talk " 

Talk? Why? this early,

Does she want to scold me some more.

I'm just waking up , my mind hasn't processed everything yet and I have to pee, 

I quickly scramble out of the covers and out of the bed,

" just give me a minute" I enter into the toilet to do what needs to be done.

I go back into the room to find my mum cracking her knuckles, a habit she does when she is nervous , scared or sometimes angry .

Did she find out I snuck out? Naa, it's probably not that ,if it was ,she would have already yelled at me .

I sit on the bed beside her, she takes my hand in hers,

I stare at our hands in confusion,
