The Day That Were Pt 1 By Chloe Rae

Many days have me wondering why would I be considered the best of the worst sentence makers

In our state oh well’ it’s a achievement to tell the grandkids one day , Mum was forever decrypting my speech it wasn’t that I never knew how to speak properly or didn’t get a proper education none of that, it was just that I seemed to always over excite myself when it came to speaking , like telling you the kitty litter needed changing could come across as a seven year old girl getting her first bike without training wheels and screaming with hype that she can now become one of the older kids , mum slowly began to wonder how I’d go along in life with such a act up my sleave , my grandmother rose always said my real father was a auctioneer and must of screamed it into me , mum still insists till this day that he wasn’t a auctioneer far from it in fact anything but being indefinite. Grandmother rose was one of fourteen children silly thinking that she is the youngest believe it or not she is the oldest female I know ,if only the others were alive to tell me there memories or even there mistakes or something which could some what entertain me as much as grandmother rose , my mother runs a home in which people who travel abroad stay on there vacations in a matter of speaking I’ve never in my life been able to go on a vacation mother says if people take vacations to come here’ then every day for me is a vacation I truly don’t understand where she is coming from but I know where she’s been so I take her advice one ear at a time , we live of a lake, sadly they’ve never named the lake due to the fact it were to be named after one of grandmother rose’s oldest brothers Elf but since he committed a few murders before he was sentence to death they decided it wasn’t a way to go, grandmother rose still believes Elf had nothing to do with the murders in July 1976 but evidence says other wise he eventually died in the prison we visited him a few times when I was a baby I don’t really remember it , but mum likes to remind me so that I don’t forget my past or present at times. Like last week in school I was to do a speech on my mother and as the interduction I announced her as a Maid as the teacher has suggested she was , but mother got snotty nosed and interrupted and rephrased her job title , I still can’t remember what it was but believe me it was rather long three words in fact and all of which I’ve never herd of before nor have id herd her say them, any ways mum then pulled me out of school because of the teacher naming mums job profession as a maid.

Mum was a little touchy that night walking up and down the hall way talking to her self waving her hands about as if she has a one on one conversation with someone which it was just her. Grandmother rose said for me not to worry about it and to head of to bed in which I did. So following back to before then im now school less, father less, what else does she want to take from me grandmother rose?

Two days later sadly that was to follow, brought her morning cup of tea in to her and nothing much pail

Skin and purple lips arose to my attention. I was then worried over the fact she hadn’t taken her medication which still sat on the table along side her bed, that wasn’t unlike her so I ran down the stairs towards the cow shed where I knew mum would be there with Lacy our dairy cow, “MOTHER “I cried oh so loudly” SOMTHINGS WRONG “She rushed so quickly she tipped over the bucket of fresh milk we piled our way up the stairs. Mum stood at the door as if she was too afraid to enter I didn’t think twice I ran up to her grab to hand “WAKE UP GRANDMOTHER ROSE “WAKE UP” ITS KAYSEE “mother then entered the room grabbed my arm dragged me towards my bedroom door and told me to sit and wait until she had called the doctor in which I did I sat and waited. It took Dr.Marcus two hours to travel out of town to see grandmother rose he said she has died in her sleep of old age . Old age I thought she was only ninety nine years old she told me people can live over a hundred why couldn’t she become one of the percentage of people which do? I was puzzled over that for months to come surprisingly, Mother planed this very nice funeral for grandmother rose she would have been proud we deck out the whole house in yellow with daisy by her coffin as she asked oh I thought I was in paradise in such a weird situation. Many people turned up to say there goodbyes even a few of my mum’s brothers which left town before I was born and to our surprise I had cousins my age. I was so excited to once again to be able to hang out with children of my own age they were my uncle marks kids he was fortunate to of had twins around the same time mum had me and about the same time he left town” strange that he thought he ought to leave town to have a proper life, as for us we found life in such a small vacation town. They listed they were to stay the whole month of September as if mum had enough on her plate but this was too much, out house was a busy place in September we’d have visitors from everywhere as far as New Zealand and as close as New York city oh the city sounds like a stage show with blinding lights, mother said that if we were to find my father that would be the first place to look or Nevada my world map was split down the centre so I only had half of America on the map and was never able to spot Nevada ,
