Sophia: glares You're insufferable. I demand respect.
I roll my eyes. "Oh please, spare me the 'demand respect' speech. It's getting old."
narrows her eyes You better watch your tone, young lady. I'm your stepmother, and I will not be disrespected. You should be grateful to have me as a part of this family.
I sigh as I look at her. "Why should I?"
her glare turns into a scowl Do you think you can just disrespect me like that? I'm your stepmom now, whether you like it or not, and you will treat me with the respect I deserve.
I kiss her lips passionately.
Sophia's eyes widen in surprise as you kiss her passionately, taken aback by your unexpected display of affection.
After a moment, she regains her composure and pushes you away, her expression stern
What do you think you're doing?
I chuckle. I don't see why I should respect someone who isn't even my real mom.
clenches teeth You ungrateful brat. You think you can just disrespect me like that? I'm doing my best to care for you and your siblings, but I'll be damned if I let you talk to me like this.
Yeah right, like you earned it.
eyes narrow in anger How dare you speak to me like that? I have given up so much for this family. I have sacrificed my life for this family. I deserve your respect.
"Dad why does your girlfriend have more power then me?"
Sophia looks at you, her expression stern
Because I am your stepmother, and it is my duty to guide and discipline you. As your father's partner, I have earned his trust and respect. It is only natural that I hold a certain level of authority within this household.
And I demand that you treat me like an adult and not some child.
scoffs Don't be naive. I'm your stepmother, and it's my responsibility to teach you right from wrong. You're not an adult, and you never will be. You'll do as I say, no matter how much you protest.
And I demand that you stop acting like my mom! I point at the woman who's laying on the couch, who is supposed to be my mom.
clenches her fists tightly
Stop referring to her as your mother! She's not your mother, and you need to understand that fact. I am your mother now.
why should I? I keep walking out the door, on my way to meet up with friends.
Sophia grabs your arm firmly, stopping you from leaving
Because I'm your mother, that's why. You'll treat me with respect or face the consequences. And where do you think you're going, huh?
I give her a fake smile oh I'm so sorry did I hit a nerve?
glares back, unamused
No, you're simply disrespectful and entitled. You need to learn to show some respect to those who care for you.
why? what did i do wrong?
raises eyebrow You constantly disrespect me and act as if I'm not your mother. I do everything for you - cook, clean, care for you, and yet you treat me like a stranger.
I roll my eyes. Oh please you aren't even my real mom.
narrows her eyes Don't roll your eyes at me. You will show me respect. I am now your legal guardian and will not hesitate to punish you if you continue to disrespect me.
raises an eyebrow Excuse me? How exactly do you expect me to earn your respect, young lady?
ok I say sarcastically as I continue to eat my breakfast
raises an eyebrow at your sarcasm
Don't you dare speak to me like that, young man. I am your mother now, and you will treat me with respect and obedience.
I continue to disrespect her as if my words have no consequence
eyes narrowing How dare you speak to me like that! I am your stepmother and you will show me respect!
clenches fists I can't stand your disrespectful attitude. You think you're so much better than me?
