Part 5: Cj's house

So, it is now 12:51 a.m. when I finally reached my house. Looking at my house from afar I noticed the lights were on in the living room, which indicated that my mother was woke and waiting on me to arrive home. I already knew what was going to happen by how my night was already going. I finally stepped into the yard, walk through the concrete gravel driveway and reached the door handle. As soon as I twisted the door, unlocking the hinge to open the door my mother is already yelling about me because I'm late for my curfew. She exclaims "WHERE WERE YOU? I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR YOU ALL NIGHT. I SPECIFICALLY TOLD YOU TO BE BACK HERE BY 12 O'CLOCK, AND AS ALWAYS YOU'RE HARD HEADED BLACK ASS DON'T LISTEN. MAN I REGRET KEEPING YOU IN MY WOMB. YOU'VE BEEN NOTHING BUT HELL AS SOON AS YOU WERE BIRTHED. NOW WHAT'S YOUR EXCUSE TO WHY YOU WERE LATE?" As I'm listening to everything she's saying I completely go blank. Like as a mother you're supposed to be here for me when I need you to love, nurture and support me within any and everything I do. Communicate and understand with me and teach me some things you hadn't known when you were my age. But instead, I'm bashed for not coming home by curfew which wasn't even entirely my fault. And instead of asking me and communicating with your child, you bash me and throw me under the bus like a dog. I am your daughter, your one and only child. And still I'm hated for doing absolutely nothing. As I'm spaced out thinking about all the horrible things my mother just told me. She thinks I'm ignoring her and she gets in my face yelling "OH NOW YOU HAVE NOTHING TO SAY? YOU'RE ALWAYS COMPLAINING AND TALKING ABOUT SOMETHING." As I try to respond she smacks me and I fall down holding my right cheek as it looks like I'm blushing on how red my face is. I try to get up and she hovers over me so I get too terrified to get up. But, at this point, I'm furious with everybody and everything. I get up and brush by her and go start to walk to my room. She follows me still complaining on why I didn't answer her question. I get to my room, lock the door and call one of my male friends on the phone. I called him I said "hey cj, I really need a friend and just somebody as of right now, everybody's bashing me and trying to break me down. Could I please stay with you at your place for a couple of days?" He responded "of course I'm On my way!" While I was on the phone my mother was knocking on my door the whole time, still upset because she hadn't received an answer to her question. After I got off the phone I unlocked my door and she bussed inside trying to see what I was doing. I grabbed my bookbag and attempted to grab everything I thought I was going to need. She goes and asks what am I doing and why am I packing. I proceed to explain to her how I'm done with this toxic relationship and this abuse from my mother and I'm gone. While she tried to respond to that statement, cj beeped his car horn outside and cut her off. So I grabbed all of my belongings and went outside.
