Day 7: Family Reunion

My mother invited me to her house for a family reunion. It must have been forever since I have last been there. I just can't stand their fake smiles and artifical happiness.

Uncle Tom hates my father. My father hates Aunt Mary. Aunt Mary thinks Uncle Leroy is weird. Uncle Leroy lives in a box. My family is disfunctional; what's the point of embracing that at events like these?

I tried to keep a low-profile, but my mother had to ask me how Amy was. Of course I didn't want to talk about it, but she kept pestering me. I finally told her how she cheated on me seven days ago. My mother said she wasn't surprised. She knew that girl would hurt me sooner or later. I couldn't stand staying there any longer.

I left.
