Emerald
I stared at my face in the bathroom mirror for a few minutes, contemplating what I should do for the rest of the evening.
Dinner was a hot mess; it was complete chaos and it was almost starting to seem like a never-ending show. I knew my family wasn't exactly loving and caring but compared to these people, I see a glimpse of hope for my family. In their case, there's no hope.
The other thing I got from the hour I spent sitting with them was that none of them liked each other, not even the married couples, like Brian and myself. It was surprising to see how much an entire family despised each other, to the point where they couldn't even fake it.
The only person that didn't seem to have a problem with anyone, was Ryan, mostly because he had kept quiet all through the evening except when he tried to defend me against his mother.
