I'm totally annoyed.
I went to bed late yesterday and I didn't worry about getting an headache or anything because I knew it'll be a Saturday which meant I can get enough hours of sleep. However, my mother jingles the handle on my door, trying to open it (lucky I decided to start locking my door to stop her barging in when I sleeping or trying to sleep).
It's 8:00 am and she wants me to get up to wash my carpet.
"..."
On a Saturday!!
It took me 10 minutes to get out of bed because I was cold and my throat was dry. I groggily made my way to my dad, asking what she wanted because I missed some of the things she said when I was yawning and stretching. He tells me she is washing the carpet rugs and I was like okay and went to my room and carried my carpet to the backyard.
Once I get there she tells me to put it on the ground so she could wet it and put the soap on it. I was about to leave to go to the bathroom but she was like "No, don't you run away. You need to help me."
I don't say anything but just stand there by the door waiting for her to stop wetting the carpet so I could put soap on it. But she starts doing it herself and starts irrigating me by talking. She's like,"You need to learn how to clean. You can't sit on your butt doing nothing. Doing nothing won't help put food on the table. I woke up earlier, when you were still asleep washing the bathroom towels and some other things. You know Ricardo (our neighbor's son) learn how to clean and he does it."
At that point she just pissed me off by insulating that I don't do anything at home. My dad knows I clean the house but she never pays any damn attention to me to know that. Just yesterday I clean the bathroom...again. Where was she? At work but she should have known that it was cleaned because it smells like disinfected which means it was clean recently.
Again...she doesn't notice anything if she's not looking for anything.
Ugh, besides, why complain to me about sleeping and not cleaning? No one asked her to wake up at 8 am or 7 am to clean. That same work of cleaning could have been done at 10. It's not like the house is that dirty, sure the halls and stairs are a bit dusty but in a week they'll be like that again.
Of course that didn't stop her from finishing the carpets and coming back upstairs, talking to my dad about me. Well, it's mostly a one-sided conversation because my dad knows I can clean and that I do. But even than...he doesn't bother to tell her that, which pisses me off too. Ugh, he never stands up for me and I mean NEVER. Heck, he RARELY ever stands up for himself either. It's no wonder why my mother has so much control over everything he says and do and the house.
I'll end with a quote that my mother said about me to my dad.
"Say nothing or she'll run."
