I have been sick for five days
Cough started last Friday
Lasted the whole weekend I was in Tybee for a redo birthday trip since the one last year absolutely sucked
Fever peaked Sunday night
Itâs gone down since
But the cough has only gotten worse every day
Today itâs to the point where I can barely breathe normally for even three minutes without having to cough
My mom is working from home today
She can hear it all
Every time I cough or sneeze
All she said was âYou better sneeze it all up before you go to schoolâ
I start in two days
She wonât even get me something as simple as cough drops
Wonât even let me use a small spoonful of her honey
She only every buys honey for herself
She only ever buys good food for herself
If I ask her for anything to help with my cough, sheâll just tell me to drink water
Iâve tried
Water just makes me cough even more
Not allowed to ask questions either apparently
Iâm sick but I still gotta do all these chores and shit she could easily do herself
But sheâs âworkingâ all the time
Sheâs working from home for a while
Sheâs heard me coughing all day
Whatever whatever you know that already
But she decided to add something to the list of chores
I was told around letâs say 14:18 that I need to weed eat
I put the battery on the charger around 14:22
Checked the battery around 15:40/15:50
It wasnât charged all the way
So I decided to wait a little longer and let it fully charge
It started raining
I asked my mom how Iâm gonna weed eat if itâs raining
She started yelling at me like I shouldâve been able to read the weatherâs mind and know it was gonna rain
Iâm sorry that Iâm sick and my first thought wasnât to check the weather when you told me I needed to weed eat
And sheâs sitting there, literally two fucking days before I go back to school, saying she wonât take me shopping for school supplies unless Iâve cleaned my room and weed eated
I canât fucking weed eat
Itâs raining
There are so many things I need for school
I hardly have any pants that I can actually wear because multiple pairs that I had to stretch and make last for YEARS had finally given out at he end of last school year
I have told her this
All I need is three or four pairs of pants and school supplies
And sheâs threatening to take away what I need because things arenât going how she wanted them to
Because it started raining before I could do what she wanted me to do
And now sheâs mad at me for it like itâs my fault
