Lame Party

Lame party….
“Such a lame party.” I said to myself as I got into the room gazing around, it seemed like the party was almost over when we arrived.
I was searching for mum as I anticipated she would be at the party. I had asked Dad if it was a welcoming party for mum when I realized there was a party ongoing at the house as we got home and he said it wasn’t and motioned for me to see what it was about myself.
Even though I was curious about what was going on, I guess I just had to trust Dad and go see for myself. It had been alot of drama for one day but I was optimistic about meeting mum. I just needed to see her as I have missed her and wanted to hold her.
I noticed chattering filled the air as I got into the room. The guests seemed to have enjoyed themselves even though it looked like a lame party. The guest were children about same age as me and I could not help but wonder if it was a fund- raiser party for kids.
I soon recognized some kids from my school and I wondered what all of this was all about. What amazed me even further was that a party was going on in my house with my school kids all in attendance but I wasn’t invited. I knew I had to ask Dad a lot of questions when he got in.
As I walked around, I didn’t seem to find any adults in the room. I wasn’t sure about what was happening but I needed to find my mother amongst anything else. I was going to bother about what the party was about when I found her.
Suddenly I got the glimpse of a woman who looked like my mum and my heart gladened. I could not hide my excitement and walked to meet her. I concluded it was a party for mum’s company and I raced to where she was, beaming with smiles. Even though I was angry she had left me I was just so happy she was here now.
” Mum”I called out for her as I approached her, she had just finished talking to a guest when I got to where she was. She seemed uneasy as she heard me call her mum and I soon realized my mistake.
” She isn’t mum.” I muttered as I noticed she wasn’t my mother. They had such a striking resemblance and was really pretty. She would have passed off as mum but I knew my mother better and some fancy clothes and a nice makeover was not going to confuse me.
“Oh sorry.”I said in an apologetic tone as I realized my mistake. She had become uneasy as I called her mum and I walked away from her. I soon noticed the inscription wishing Selene a happy birthday and it made me wonder even more.
” Why is there an inscription wishing Selene a happy birthday.” I said to myself but i was not going to let that bother me just yet. I needed to find mum and dad already said she was at the house.
” Where is mum?” I asked myself racing upstairs to find her. I opened my dad’s room and all the other rooms. As I opened the door to the guest room, I noticed some guests who happened to be students at my school, I wasn’t sure what they were doing but it wasn’t really my concern as I raced right after I noticed it was just students at the room and mum wasn’t there.
I headed down to the kitchen and when I opened the door, I realized it was the caterers who were in charge of the food at the party that were there. I had search everywhere around the house but didn’t seem to find her.
I decided I was going to meet dad and asked him about mum. For some weird reasons he wasn’t at the house yet.
” He said she was home.” I muttered to myself as I headed down to meet him, tears has welled up my eyes. I was hoping dad did not lie to me and raise my hope up for nothing.
As I walked to meet dad I saw Selene and I asked her why she was our house. She looked at me confused as she though she didn’t understand what I meant by what she was doing at my house.
” How could you be so dumb.” I asked her as she looked confused. What annoyed me even further was that she was as ignorance as I was. She didn’t even know it was my house.
” How could she not know?” I mumbled dismissing her ignorance for pretense.
” One could never trust peasants you know” I muttered again but I’m second thoughts it would have been planned by my dad and when he walked towards us with the woman I had seen before who happened to be Selene’s mum, I could not be anymore furious about the situation. I had seen Selene mum at school severally bit this was the first time I noticed her resemblance with mum.
I yelled at dad for allowing strangers into our home and soon enough he dragged me upstairs in front of the rest of the guests.
“Daddy humiliated me all because of Selene and her pathetic mother.” I mumbled as I cried my heart out when I was being dragged to my room. I was so bittered about everything happening.
” I wouldn’t have you embrass me in my own house.” Dad said as he dragged me upstairs to my room. I mumbled annoyed by how he had treated me.
I had arrived home and didn’t find mum anywhere and here was Selene having a party at my house. She was one of the few people I couldn’t stand as she disgusted me more than anyone at school.
