Karen: tapping foot loudly Where the hell have you been, kiddo?
Hiererra
sorry mom i was hanging out with friends
looking at you sternly You better have a damn good reason for being late, young lady. I've been worried sick about you. And what were you doing, hanging out with friends this late at night?
Hiererra
sorry mom i was out having fun
sigh I know you were having fun, but it's two in the morning. I was starting to worry. You know you're not supposed to stay out past midnight without telling me.
Hiererra
"Just hanging out" I say, smiling at you while holding up my phone and pointing at the texts from my dad. "He's wondering where I am too."
sigh "And what exactly were you doing all this time, hm?" I cross my arms and give you a look that says "I know you're lying"
Hiererra
i walk inside and take my shoes off
Karen looks at you with a disapproving glare. You're late. And don't take your shoes off until I say so. She crosses her arms and taps her foot impatiently.
Hiererra
kisses you im sorry mom i was out with my friends
I push you away from me, glaring at you.
"I don't want your damn kisses, young lady. You're supposed to be home hours ago. Do you know how worried I've been?"
Hiererra
I'm a girl I was at a party
Karen raises an eyebrow, crossing her arms over her chest A party, huh? At this time of night? You know I told you curfew was midnight. And I swear, every time you come home late, you say it was a party. What were you even doing at this party anyway?
Hiererra
i walk inside my room and i shut the door behind me
I hear your bedroom door close and immediately follow you No, no, no. You're not getting away that easily. I asked you a question, young lady. Come here this instant.
Hiererra
i put my backpack down sorry mom I lost track of time..
folded arms, raised eyebrow Lost track of time? Really? You think that's going to fly with me? I look at my watch It's nearly midnight! You were supposed to be home by ten!
Hiererra
I sigh and kiss your cheek sorry I was late mom
I scoff and raise an eyebrow. Sorry doesn't cut it this time, young lady. You know you're not supposed to be out so late. And what were you doing out there anyway?
Hiererra
I'm sorry I didn't mean to stay out so late
Karen raises her eyebrows and folds her arms "I don't care if you didn't mean to, you're still hours past your curfew. Do you know how worried I was? I've been up all night waiting for you."
Hiererra
we had to go somewhere at the last minute
folded arms At the last minute? That’s what you always say when you’re out too late. sigh It’s past midnight, you know how late I was up worrying about you?
Hiererra
I went on a bike ride. it was nice seeing nature
She looks at you with a raised eyebrow. A bike ride, huh? At this time of night? Do you realize what time it is? It's almost midnight. And you expect me to believe that you went on a bike ride?
Hiererra
I was hanging out with my girlfriend I say nonchalantly
her eyebrow raises, she crosses her arms Hanging out? You said you'd be home by midnight. It's nearly 2 am. And you're telling me you've been "hanging out" with your girlfriend this whole time?
Hiererra
she hears me drop something, as I walk towards the kitchen
Karen's ears perk up as she hears the sound of something dropping.
"Hey, watch your step! You better have a good explanation for being out past curfew."
She stands up from her seat and walks over to the kitchen, crossing her arms and waiting for you to explain yourself.
Hiererra
I take off my shoes sorry mom i lost track of time
crossing arms and raising an eyebrow You "lost track of time"? You know what time it is? It's way past your curfew! And don't think I didn't notice those empty beer bottles on the sidewalk. sighs Come here, sit down. We need to talk.
Hiererra
sorry mom I lost track of time..I pull out my phone and show you 5 missed calls from you
I raise an eyebrow and snatch your phone from your hand, scrolling through it to see who else you've been talking to while you should've been out with your friends.
Glares at you with arms crossed, unimpressed
And what were you doing that made you lose track of time so badly? Huh?
Hiererra
she'd be drunk, stumbling towards you I'm sorry mom..
I cross my arms over my chest, looking at you with a mix of annoyance and concern. Don't 'I'm sorry' me. You were supposed to be home hours ago. Do you have any idea how worried I've been?
Hiererra
we got kicked from the party we went to
She raises an eyebrow. And why exactly did you get kicked out, hm?
Hiererra
i was at my friends house
sighs and crosses arms
And it took you hours to get there, I bet. Do you know what time it is?
muttering under her breath Idiot... always staying out too late.
