I ain't talking to Mama anymore--let me tell you why.
The last I told you, Jacob (my long-lost brother from Mama's previous marriage, which she knows nothing about since she has AMNESIA) showed up out of nowhere. He stayed the night and he and Mama were up to all hours, gabbing like a couple of retards. They took to each other instantly, making me more than a little jealous. I mean, this guy appears on my trailer doorstep out of the blue and he's already closer to Mama than Cunt Face and me? Whatever!
Speaking of, I haven't seen Cunt Face's mug in a few days. I don't know where
Back to what I was saying. So Jacob is all over Mama like a drunken Thai prostitute and I'm pissed. I felt like they were intentionally trying to annoy me the next day when Mama said she was going to a fancy breakfast with Jacob. He was taking her to IHOP and I was not invited.
"Screw pancakes--why don't you two both go to HELL instead?" I said from my recliner, Starla bouncing on my knee.
"Don't be bitter--it makes you look uglier than you already are!" She snapped back, pulling on her heavy coat.
Jacob appeared soon after, all bundled up and ready to go. "Thanks for letting me stay over, Trasha--that was really nice of you."
"Yeah, whatever." I replied, not looking at him. My initial attraction to him had already faded to cool disgust.
When Mama came back later that afternoon, it was only to pack her bags. Apparently, she was leaving to move in with Jacob.
"But you don't know him!" I yelled. "How could you just go off with some stranger?"
She zipped up her suitcase. "Easy--I don't know know you either and frankly, you get on my nerves. See you later, woman."
I watched her thumping her way down the stairs, the suitcase weighing nearly as much--if not more--than she did.
"Well, fuck you then, lady!" I screamed, Starla on my hip. "Forget where this trailer is--you ain't welcome here no more!"
Jacob's eyes caught mine briefly as he helped Mama into the passenger seat of his fancy dark blue Dodge Neon.
"Eat shit and die!" I bellowed as they drove off, out of the the trailer park and hopefully, out of my life forever!
Love,
Trasha
