Something has recently caught my attention, it's nothing I condone really. And honestly, most people wouldn't make much of it. Call me silly but, I don't get why I should pay rent at home as soon as I start working. It disturbs me how this current has become so prevalant, especially in the townships.
I don't understand this trend, and I'd be damned if my mother pulled such a stunt. Actually, I'd slap her. I've never hit anything larger than a mosquito but I had a mean backhand in Squash; I'm certain my actual backhand would leave a face dented if I displayed my violent streak. Leave one begging for dentures. I have no idea why you'd have a kid only to make her pay for living with you 20+ years later. Are you taking revenge for the nine months I was in your tum? The sleepless nights, the swollen breasts and the stupid cravings? It's probably the clothing hey, as well as the good education I received. For all I know, the gods could have whispered in your ears, the possibilties are infinite! However, I'm convinced it's all the poop I couldn't wipe off my backside for a good four years. Yes, that's it, right? I mean, all the mess I consumed from breastmilk to baby porridge, crayons and even bugs! Surely there was MURDER coming out my rear and you couldn't bare it. You had to of course, because "you're Mummy, and Nanny's off." It was in those moments when you devised the cunning plan. To make me pay. One day.
Well, pardon me Mother, and Father. I was being my usual tardy self, I did not think before accusing you of greed, stupidity and insanity. I thought it's only natural for kids to live at home with their parents WITHOUT paying rent, until they want to move out. I really don't think at times, at crucial times actually. Forgive me.
Bless you if you're subjected to such fuckery.
