Breathing heavily as I open the fridge to get some apple juice my parents in the kitchen fighting as usual ,its like there habit nowadays fighting because of small things and I don't even wanna know what happen this time .I go up stairs in my room where Justin my brother waits for me a remote in his hands ready to watch a movie ,I give him the apple juice as I sat beside him"they are fighting again " gazed in his eyes " oh my god am really tired of this nonses .its like we don't even exist in this house"he increased the volume to a hundred so that we don't here them downstairs " I know right and I thought they would change after graduating but nope" sipping my juice and we hear the footsteps rushing up here like towards my room we all froze as I saw my mom enter my room and slums the door behind her ,her face sore and red from dads slaps my eyes were filled with tears and fear .I have seen them fight for years but today felt different "am.....a....am gonna dirvoce your dad... I ..I can't " my mom broke down crying as she stood in front of our bed and at the same time my dad came in the room his face filled with rage ,it wasn't him but a beast I could see his eyes filled with fire coldness I froze, my body I couldn't fill my body Justin jumped from the bed "dad thats enough!" He stood in front of mom like a shield " get out of my way boy! "Dad pushed Justin away grabbing my mom by the neck chocking her ,I saw my mom fight for her life as she dropped tears of terror Justin took his playing station and hit dad on the head maybe to make him blank but it never worked at least it changed the attention "what the fuck are you doing boy!" Slaps my brother n pushes him making him fall down ,as he turned around my mum slaped him " why are you like this ,what did I do ?.....I thou...."my dad pushed her taking away the words she meant to release,my mum fell down hitting her head on the sharp corner of the table and thats when I gave out a scream my eyes wet I saw only darkness ,Justin rushed to help mom but she wasn't moving I tried to move but my body felt week my dad looked at us and left I dropped from the bed shaking mom but she never responded calling the hospital for an ambulance as I sat there Justin holding moms head and blood coming out "mom! Noooo! Sa ...sandra shes bleeding !" I did nothing I was just crying there the ambulance came took us to the hospital only to here that our mum was no more we cried no the spot knowing that Cannada has become a jungle for the two of us , we don't even have relatives here how are we going to help our selves...
Two days passed the ceremony was done mum in the soils and dad nowhere to be seen thanks to our neibhor who helped as get everything ready for our mum .going home with fear and terror in our hearts not knowing what to do but for a 25 year old me who just graduated from college ,I have the responsibility to take care of the house and my brother and I never rested but looking for jobs from one bank to another one organization to another they all said they where full they don't need an accountant this was really painfull my dream job and am not collified . day and day passed now the stress became thicker and thicker "sis don't worry I have found a job at Freddy's mechanic shop " he held my shoulder trying to ease me down "no no no Justin you need to go to college not that nonses okay ,I ....I will find a job don't worry" now my eyes were full again "sis its okay I can go to college another year but we need money to eat here and and..."I interrupted him as I stood "no! Am going to look for another job I don't won't you working oky!" I took my bag "but sis" Justin held my hand "Justin leave me " I pulled away and left maybe I can get a job at a restaurant or as a hairdresser just anything to get food .i entered this other restaurant "yes how may I help you?" A nice guy behind a counter wow " am I ...I was looking for the manager here" I fixed my hair to the left "oh you can sit there he will be here anytime" he smiled at me as he turned around assisting another customer ,I went to sit down and after like thirty minutes the manager came and I got up to talk to him " hi" he turned around and looked at me "oh am you must be....what's your name again?" He turned off his phone " am sandra ...sandra carson" I held my hand towards him for a hand shake "oh thats right sandra .... I believe you are looking for a job " shakes my hand "yes sir anything please " the manager looked at me with a no expression face "okay miss sandra but you are late we just employed another assistant yesterday " I felt my heart burn again "but sir don't you have anything else?" I wanted to cry but its a public place "sorry miss" he left and I sat down again I cried a little and got out of the restaurant my phone rang it was my boy friend maybe thats what I need some one to comfort me " eh baby gal" I wiped up my tears " hey... Am.... Can I come over " I called a tax "am sure why not " I really have a nice boyfriend he's always there for me and I just hope he helps me find a job.
I got in the tax and went to his place ,seeing him wait for me on his balcony . I got off and walked towards him as I looked in his eyes ,his arms wide open ready to hug me and I also opened mine hugged for some seconds then we got inside sat on the chair as he brought two cups of juice " ey here and sorry again about ...what happen"I sipped my juice " thanks and yah am just trying to move on now" turns on the TV " so have you found the job yet?" Looking at me " am .... Honestly no .... And am so tired everywhere I go ....its either they are full or they want an experienced person and I just finished college how the hell am I gonna get the experience" touching my for head "ey relaxe let me massage you okay , you need to rest " I don't have time for this I gotta find a job . "come on let me massage your head" he got up and began massaging my head and wow he knows how to massage the stress away "mmmmm can you go down on my shoulders" he moved his hands slowly and gently lower on my shoulders I bit my lower lip as he played with my tits kissing me on the neck and his lower arm going down to rubbing my pussy "mm mm what the fuck are you doing !" I got up pushing him away "what's the matter ?" I moved back "sorry but I..... I can't "I took my bag head for the exit "babe come on" holds my hand" this is the third year and we haven't tried anything " guys are really stupid I come here for help and he's trying to smush me" this isn't the time carl I came here seeking for your help not sex " I fixed my shirt "come on sandrah " pulling me close to him as he tried to kiss me" I said not today! " I pushed him turns walking towards the door "sandra!" He turned me around holding my neck gently kissing me " what the fuck ! Get off me I already told you ! And it looks like all you want is sex which I can't manage .... So continue this nonses and its over " I got out if the house called a tax as I walked in the neighbor hood .
Before the tax came i heard a car coming towards me turning around with a little bit of fear that it might be carl " oh my god sandrah !" Stops the car as she got ,I looked at her still young with her blonde hair and red lips" hey rainbow" I gave her a smile " am so sorry for your loss " she hugged me "where are you coming from ?" Looking at me with a sad face " oh am... At my friends place " I hope rainbow is happy now that I graduated I bet she thought I was targetting her man " I heard you where looking for a job " She smiled at me again " you know what sandra get in my car, let's go ,I will drop you off " I think the lord has answered my prayer "thank you " got in the car " you haven't answered me sandrah " I put my sit belt on "well no I haven't and I have given up" she pulled life in the engine " oh God ,have you asked Josh ? Course I heard that her sister was looking for an accountant in califonia " Thank you Lord " oh yes yes can you give me his number?" She made a turn and increased the speed" I will just tell him and he will tell you the results "I bet he thinks am gonna do something stupid ,I always noticed a hatred towards me "am okay but please don't forget " she stopped the car at my front yard "don't worry sandrah I know we had our ups and downs but this is different I can't bring those nonses in this situation" wow has she changed or what " oh my ...thank you Rain " I got out of the car and closed the door ,gave her a wave " see you later girl" Rain gazed at me and left .....
I got inside the house looked around for Justin but he wasn't there tried to call him but his phone wasn't available , it was quiet obvious that he went to that stupid mechanic .
I got angry and at the same time some thing came in my thought not to go ,to leave him work and I can tell him to use the money for himself .
~THREE DAYS LATER~
I woke up to the sound of my alarm ,birds singing and my brother knocking on the door " what do you want !?"I got up and turned the alarm off " I prepared breakfast ,hurry up its gonna get cold " my brother Justin prepared food for me ,wow I think we really better off together"am coming " I took a bath got ready and went to eat seeing him on the screen got me eased up "have you eaten?" He turned towards me "yah you can eat " hmm Justin is trying to be responsible for most of the things here .thats nice of him, I sat down to eat my pancakes and after my first bite I got a call ,unknown number" who is it?" Justin demanded " I don't know " I answered the call
" hello" I waited for the person on another line to answer"yes is this Madam Sandra ?" I looked at Justin "am yes who is this?".......
