C1 They are quarrelling again

29 years old Jaden-Lee couldn't sleep at night due to the noise that kept coming up from the next door, which of course, was her mum and dad's room.

He was the only son of his parents and has a little sister who was dumb.

His mum, Mrs Ava-Mae, and his dad Aiden- Leigh I've been married for 23 years now and he was actually given birth before they were officially married. And after 15years, they gave birth to his little sister Ruby who was 8 years old now.

Quarreling and fighting was a normal norm between his parents everyday and They seem to be quarreling again today and this late at night? Jaden pondered to himself as he quickly checked the time from his phone.

It was past midnight.

His father wasn't at home by the time Jaden retired to his room and for them to be fighting now, it only means one thing. His father was just coming back from who knows where.

He had really stressed himself today at school and had even stayed back to study as they were taking their final exams in the university were he was studying business administration and he needed to have some rest but the noise kept interrupting his sleep and so, he stood up from his bed, reached out for his head phones which he connected to his phone as he put on a music and raised the so high that he wouldn't be able to hear the noise coming from his parents.

After which he slowly drifted back to sleep.

Meaning well, the two adults continued to quarrel as their voice could even be heard by the neighbors who could be awake.

" Where are you coming back from this late at night?" Jaden's mum queried.

" Where else or not from work or what is it that you're thinking?" Her husband replied.

" Don't tell me that nonsense who on earth works till this late at midnight?"

" I'm very tired and not even in any way ready for this argument so can you get out of my way?" Her husband asked.

" No,not till you tell me where it is you're coming back from. I checked your office when I was coming back from work at around 7 pm and they told me that you guys I've closed so what the hell were you doing outside since?" She asked.

" So you're now stalking me?" He asked.

" Answer my question!" She roared.

" Do you know what time it is? Why are you disturbing the whole neighborhood this late at night? Are you going insane or what?" He asked, his eyes popping out.

" Wow, since when did you start caring about what the neighbors are saying? The Leigh I know never cared a damn about what people are saying or are going to say or else, why will you be coming home now?" She asked.

He just ignored her as he tried stepping into the room but she blocked him.

" Get out of my way at the count of five….. one, two, three….."

" What will you do if I don't? You're nothing but a shameless man who can not even have control over the thing between his two legs. I know you've gone to sleep with another prostitute haven't you?" She roared as she kept her two hands at her waist as she blocked his part.

"Four….. five!!" Her husband shouted as he quickly bounced at her and started beating a hell out of her

He continued beating her till he was satisfied then he entered the room leaving her in the sitting room in tears.

The next morning, Jaden has finished dressing up for school and has just come down to the dinning to eat his breakfast. It was only his little sister that was at the dining table when he arrived and she wasn't even eating the food before her.

" What is ruby? and where is mum? Why is she not here? He asked.

He didn't bother asking about his father as his father never joined them to have breakfast in the morning. He probably should be away by now as he was always going out very early and coming back so late at night just like yesterday.

Ruby couldn't answer his brother as her eyes were full of tears and she was sobbing quietly.

Not that Jaden was even expecting an answer from her, she was dumb after all and couldn't speak although, he always speak with her with a sigh language but she was probably not going to reply seeing how moody she was.

They fought again. That was the only reason why ruby could be like this. I mean who couldn't be? He was just trying his best not to let it affect him. That's why anyone could easily mistake it as him not being bothered.

He had a serious exam this morning and needed to be at school so early so he could have some time to revise before the exam commences.

But just like other days, he has to take his sister to school before going to he's.

" Eat your food fast and stop crying, we are already late" he ordered her.

" I'm not hungry," she answered with sign language.

" Why?" Jaden asked.

" Mum" that was all she sighed back to him.

" Mum? What about her?" Jaden asked, a little bit puzzled.

She must 've been too busy for her not to be at the table but for his sister to I've mentioned about her while still snobbing, it means there was more to it so he left the dining table for her mother's room.

" Mum, it's me, open the door," he called out to her.

" You should be having your breakfast. Why are you here?" Her mum asked as she managed to control her tears to avoid making her son know that she was crying.

" Shouldn't I at least see my mother and have her wish me luck before I leave for school?" Jaden asked.
