DESTINY
Seeing my mother again after almost three years, honestly, I didn’t know how to react. I wanted to be angry, be hurtful, but to tell the truth – I was just sad.
Sad that it was so easy for her to forget all about me. Sad that she had another child, a sibling I didn’t even know existed.
But that was Aurora for you. Always only thinking of herself. No one else mattered and I doubt that little boy mattered to her. Poor child. I wondered if my father knew about it. Probably not.
I took Suzy to town just to get away from the house and be on my own. James was at work, and I was bored out of my mind. Mrs. Donahue had everything going smoothly at home, so I wasn’t really needed.
I prided myself on being frugal, growing up turning every penny twice before spending it, taught me that. But I liked window-shopping although I had my own card and could buy whatever I wanted; it didn’t mean I would.
