Chapter #4Paige by: Unknown "Hey mom." Kelly said as she entered the living room. Kelly just came back from another day at school. It was Friday, so she was in a better mood than the rest of the days.
Paige on the other hand was sulking as she was lying on the couch watching another of her soap opera's. It was another dull day, just like all of them. She went to the pedicure this morning to get her nails done with a couple of friends and this afternoon she took it easy. But it was boring, like all other days.
"Hey, how was it?" Paige asked as she was still watching her soap.
"It was okay, a Jock at school asked me out though, I turned him down."
"Wait what? You turned him down, why?" Paige asked her daughter, she couldn't believe what she just heard.
"Yeah mom, he looks great and all, but all muscles and no brains. Do you know what he said when I asked him what our future perspectives would be, huh? He said I would stay at home taking care of our kids, while he would go and be a major football player."
"And could he be a big player?" Paige always liked the jock types, those thick and big muscles she loved it. And being the mother-in-law of a major football player could have it's benefits. Perhaps she could go look after him, if her daughter would be away. Paige smiled at that thought.
"I guess so, there are a couple of universities interested in him. But that's not the point mom, he just expects me to go sit at home doing nothing while he's out there. That's so old fashion."
"Hey, watch it young lady, me and your father have done the same thing. And look at how happy I am." Paige showed off her pearly whites.
"Yeah mom, while dad is away for months you're sitting here alone with me. That's some live." Kelly rolled her eyes. "And besides that's not even the worst that jerk said to me. He even told me to change the way I dress."
That's something we both agree on. Paige thought. For years she tried to change the way Kelly dressed. She would suggest skirts and dresses, but the more Paige pushed Kelly, the more she rejected it. In the end she dropped it, though she couldn't resist making comment once in a while. Kelly had gone to school wearing jeans, white socks, sneakers, and a pink tank top. It could be so much better.
"And that's something I will never change mom, not even for a guy." "Well I'm going to be upstairs." Kelly shook her head, letting her long and curly hair bounce on her neck. Paige was always a little jealous of her hair, well actually she was jealous of everything Kelly had. Kelly had such a tight and pretty body, Paige couldn't believe she was still a virgin. When she was Kelly's age, she was already pregnant of Kelly. It was an accident of course, she didn't want to be pregnant at that age. She wanted to do so much more, she wanted to get in college, hang out at party's every night, and have sex all day long. Instead the man who would become her husband, stayed with her, promised to take care of her and their child. She accepted it of course, but she always resented that decision. If he was like one of those other jerks she knew from that time, he wouldn't have looked back at her and she would have given up her child and get on with her life. Now she was a house-wife, a loaded one, but still, she never could enjoy her youth as much as she wanted to.
But that wouldn't be long, Paige received a gift this morning from an old friend. The friend promised her it would help fulfill her deepest desire. To be young once more. Paige grabbed ... from the table. indicates the next chapter needs to be written. |
