Chapter 5: Useless Mother

I'm here now outside the mansion of my mom and my stepdad.

I want to visit them.

I was about to enter when the guard stopped me.

“I'm sorry Ma'am, but you can't come here anymore.” He said, so I frowned.

“What did you say?”, I asked coldly to him.

He was about to speak when suddenly someone spoke behind him.

“Are you deaf now, my dear step-sister?”, She said, so I turned my gaze to her.

I saw her while her arms crossed, with her flirtatious friend who is my husband‘s girlfriend.

“It's okay to be deaf than to be sluts.”, I said coldly, looking at her friend at the same time.

I can see their eyebrows rising.

“What? sluts?”, My step-sister said artfully.

“Are you deaf now my dear step-sister?”, I imitate what she said earlier.

She looked at me badly.

She was about to slap me when someone suddenly spoke behind her, But before that, she quickly took my hand and slapped herself with my hand.

I was surprised by what she did at the same time as the person who spoke earlier.

“M-mom.”, I exclaimed in shock.

Mom looked at me angrily and slapped me.

Shit! great, she didn't even know the whole truth and she just slapped me.

“How dare you hurt my daughter!”, She shouted angrily at me.

It was as if I was stuck in my position.

“Your DAUGHTER?”, I asked her, I was stopped by the fact that she didn't speak but she just stared at me.

“I'M YOUR DAUGHTER TOO MOM, FOR PETE'S SAKE!”, I shouted her.

Another slap landed on my right cheek from my good mother.

“Tsk.”, Was the only word that came out of my mouth, and I looked at her coldly at the same time as the two people who were smiling at me.

I clenched my fist and turned my gaze back to the woman in front of me now.

“You're not my daughter and you will never be my daughter, you're useless.”, Words came out of the mouth of the woman who gave birth to me in this world.

I laughed, even though my tears wanted to drip.

“Yeah, I know! I'm useless, but you want to know, who's the most useless? ”, I asked coldly to her.

She was quieted down.

“MY MOTHER.”, I said loudly and turned away from her, at the same time my tears that I had been holding backflow.

I don't know where my feet will take me, Just to keep me away from those worthless people.

I laughed when the heavy rain suddenly fell.

I looked up as my tears continued to flow.

I remember what happened earlier.

Everyone hates me, and it's fucking hurt. damn!

“I don't love you Charmaine, and you know that and I will never love you.”

“You're not my daughter and you will never be my daughter, you're useless.”

Words from the two people who matter most to me.

I lay down on the road and cried.

Yes, I'm bad but why do I have to experience all this?

“I'm tired ..... I'm tired of enduring all the pain.”

“I'm tired of being someone else.”

Gradually as my eyelids grew heavier, I no longer cared if I was here in the middle of the road.

All I want to do is relax because so much has happened today. 

I slowly opened my eyes, when I felt a light hitting my face.

I looked where that light came from.

I just sat down suddenly, when I remembered what happened yesterday.

“H--how?”, I wondered to myself, and looked all around me.

My forehead frowned, as this place was unfamiliar to me.

I'm here in a room that's too big.

I quickly looked at my body. I relaxed as I realized I was still dressed.

I leaned on the bed when I remembered what happened yesterday before I came here. I opened my eyes when I felt something suddenly enter.

“It's good that you're awake.”, He said to me, smiling at the same time.

I adjusted my seat and looked at him with no emotion, I could see his grin.

“Oh ... I forgot to introduce myself to you, I'm Don J and you?”, He introduced me with a smile, reaching out his hand at the same time.

“Charmaine.”, I said coldly and just looked at his hand.

He laughed, lowering his hand at the same time.

“What a nice name.”, He said smiling.

“How did I get here?”, I asked here, while looking outside.

I heard his sigh before he speak.

“That night I was on my way home when I suddenly saw you lying on the road, I thought you were dead, but when I found out you were still alive and looked like you were just asleep I brought you here.” He said.

I closed my eyes tightly when my head suddenly hurt.

Shit! it looks like I'm going to have a fever.

I looked at the old man in front of me when he suddenly asked.

“How did you get to the middle of the road? and why did you sleep there? ”, he asked.

“It's none of your business and asking fucking questions.”, I said coldly to him.

He sighed and looked at me carefully, I was able to hold my head when it hurt even more.

“Lady, are you okay?”, He asked me anxiously.

I ignored him and just ignored it.

I was about to get up when I suddenly felt dizzy.

“You're not feeling well lady, you need to rest.", He said to me.

I closed my eyes tightly and took a deep breath.

“I'm okay, I can take care of myself.”, I weakly said to him.

I ignored the pain in my head when I remembered that maybe my husband is already looking for me. But I stopped when I remembered that he didn't care about me. I'm sure he's happy now because he didn't see me.

“Lady, are you sure that you're okay?”, He said worriedly.

I calmed down and nodded.

“I'm okay.”, I weakly said to him.

I was about to leave, but I stopped and suddenly looked back.

“Thank you for helping me.”, I said and smiled.

This is the first time I smile at other people. I could see how he smiled back at me.

I turned around and was about to leave. I need to go home, right now. I want to see my husband, even if I'm not the one he wants to see.
