C4 Disowned (1).

After Austin left, the doctor turned to me.

“Is everything alright?” He asked staring at me.

“Yes, it is.” I replied. “By the way, thank you.” I told him before turning again to face the wall.

“You are welcome.” He replied and then he left the room closing the door silently.

I closed my eyes and silently hoped for death to come and take me away but instead, I fell asleep.

Suddenly I felt a hand shaking me roughly wanting me to wake up and when opened I my eyes, I saw mum and dad. Just mum and dad. Cruella was not with them and that was relieving because I did not want anymore mockery for my already shattered life.

“So you think after putting our family to shame and turning us into a laughing stock, you can just take the easy way out and leave us to deal with all your mess?” Mum asked but I chose not to reply and just looked at her instead.

“Well you are wrong if you think so because you are not going anywhere, I am not going to let you die and that is not because I care about you but because if you die, nobody will clean up your mess!” She added.

“In fact, you know what? She asked before continuing " I wish you had just died, then people will forget that I have a disgracing daughter”, she added hurting me deeply with her words.

But why do my parents hate me so much, I mean I have never done anything to them not that I remember. All I remember is I tried to please them but it’s never seems to be enough and that only got me in their bad books especially mum’s.

“Claire, it’s okay. I am sure she is feeling remorseful over her actions.” My dad said.

“David.” Mum called with warming in her voice.

“Do I look like I care if she is feeling remorseful or not?” My mum asked.

“I just thought….” My dad tried explaining but mum cut in

. “No, tell me….” She said. “…. has this child ever brought anything except disgrace to us?” Mum asked shocking me.

When have I ever brought disgrace to them? Except for this one time and It was not intentional because I was set up so what did she mean by saying I had nothing to offer them except disgrace?

I had always brought good grades home to them but they were still never satisfied especially mum. Dad is not really bad, it’s just he follows everything mum says and whatever she wants.

It always like she is the husband and not him. That how it is. Mum loves Cruella so much that she pardons all her mistakes. Cruella gets the worst grade in her department but Mum never talks about it, Cruella Is the one disappointing them every time she brings her grades home but I wonder why mum never wants to admit it and always says otherwise.

But that to me is so unfair and biased, but what can I do? Nothing! I study History in College because I wish to be an historian. I love everything about history especially the bible.

Well it is history too but in a Godly way. Apart from the bible being my favorite, Greek and Egyptian mythologies are also my favorites especially the Greek’s mythologies which is all about their gods.

I mean it is fascinating that their god of science and message is the one allowing us to be able to contact people from afar. I have always thought about how we are able to call and send messages to people who are so far away from us, and it just seems miraculous to me. That is science which I also call magic.

Before the existence of technologies and so on, science is and was known as magic so science is indeed magic.

“Are you deaf!” My mum yelled into my ear snapping me out of my thoughts in the process.

" What is it?” I asked annoyed with her for distracting me from my thoughts but dare not show it on my face. At least they could let me be right?

“Oh, you have grown wings for you to have the guts to talk to me like that in a such a rude tone?” she asked.

“Can you see the girl you asked me to be easy on?” She reported.“She is not even worth me speaking to her or behaving to her in a gentle way” She added.

And of course my dad agreed with her and started scolding me. “How dare you be rude to your mum?” He asked.

“Dad!” I called. “I was not being rude to her, I just asked her what she wants “I said hoping to convince him but of course it will be a futile attempt when mum was there. She is such a manipulator.

Now I see where Cruella got her manipulative skills from.

“Shut your trap!” Mum said raising her voice at me. “You were surely being rude to me.” She said.

“You know….” she continued. “…. It’s funny you created a very great offence and yet you feel no remorse.” She added.

OH MY GOD! Please how was I not remorseful? Of course I was, I got my dignity taken away from me forcefully, I also found out I have been turned into an object for fun, I received a whole load of heartbreaking words from people today.

I should not even feel remorse because I was not at fault, I did not even do it intentionally but the only thing I regret is I being stupid.

' How could I have trusted that a guy who would not even spare me a glance when he was dating my sister, How would someone like that suddenly fall in love with me?' I wondered.

I was truly stupid and was too trusting. How could I even have gone to a guy’s house at night and without telling or informing anyone? I seriously wish I could turn back the hands of tim

" So my words don’t need a reply right?” she asked making me sigh.

“I don’t know what to say mum.” I replied. “Do you think I wished for this to happen to us? I did not” I said hoping she would believe me but who was I kidding?

“Oh, please spare me that sentimental crap.” She said while I just looked at her. “You do not wish for this to happen to us but yet you went to get fucked!” She said.

And Immediately I heard those words, I could not keep Silent any longer and allow her to continue accusing me so I spat it out.
