It was a Saturday morning and I was sitting at the dining table typing on my laptop.
"Watcha doing?" the little devil asked peeking and taking a peek.
"It's none of your business," I reply still typing away.
"Are you trying to buy a house?" she asked again.
The car honking caught my attention.
Finally!
I close the window and shut down my laptop. Then I wait for that dreaded knock on the door before I open it. 164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3IZJHhKI69
"Grandma! Grandpa!" I yell hugging the two old people before me. "How was your trip?"164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt1yYq85NdF
"Oh, it was beautiful Darling. How are you?" Grandma replied.
"And where is that idiot son of mine!" Grandpa screamed.
My dad came running from upstairs and nearly stumbled on the landing while adjusting his tie. "What the...Hi Dad!"
"You!" my grandfather marched up and struck him on the head. "You should be ashamed of yourself! Letting some random stranger sneak into your daughter's room. Where is your fatherly instinct!"
My father was trying to explain himself but I couldn't hear anything because my grandma was busy hugging and tweaking my cheeks. "Aww my poor baby! My poor baby! I hope you are alright!"164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi4Y17xIagO
"I-am- fine-granny!" I mutter.
"What the hell is going on in shit!"
We hear the door slam and the sound of it locking. All eyes turned to the room upstairs.
"You are still together with that awful woman?" bellowed my grandfather.
My dad tried to make another excuse but was quickly shushed and lectured by my grandpa.
Hey! Remember when I said my homelife was crap? Well, it was but my grandparents are a clear exemption from this.
Why?
Because I am their favorite child!164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAuwIOy1jDR
Yep! I helped them win the jackpot at the casino three times! So I am officially their lucky charm. However, the reason why I am not living with them is as above; they are gambling addicts. They have gambled away their savings, their house, and even their life insurance at the casinos in Lake Vegans and New Yolk.164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7kEUvlXz4Q
Don't ask me how they discovered the sport.164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ3MZrGu2jW
However, because I was their 'lucky charm' they are willing to give me some pocket money for Christmas every year if I ask them. So I am crossing my fingers that they will help me with this new plan of mine. 164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVZTlWrnIZA
"So grandma. Do you want to go out to grab cookies?" I ask while rubbing my throbbing cheeks.
"Of course my dear but..." she twiddled her fingers. "I don't have any money."
"Oh don't worry," I take out a couple of bucks from my pockets. "It's on me!"
"Yippie!"
"Granpa we are going for cookies! Do you want to come?" I ask.
"Not until I am done scolding the shit out of him!" he yelled back.
I leave the house with a smirk.
"Aren't you working today dear?" she asked.
"Nah! It's my day off," I reply as we walk into the mall near the gas station and start searching for the cheapest chocolate chip cookies we could find.164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe5voOHiNtt
"Can you buy me some cigarettes dear?" she asked earning a sigh from me.164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyGCXThu5eN
"You are still smoking?"164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhPfiGTP9lN
She pouted. "Don't give me that look. You smoke too."
"Yeah, but I am not old with recurring lung problems." I pay for the cookies and a carton of chocolate milk. "Thank you."
"No problem toots," the cashier replied.
My grandma giggled and nudged me while I roll my eyes. Once we were outside, we stumble into someone who I never thought I would see.
"TK!"
