I looked down at my feet as tears fell down from my cheeks.
It has always been like this. Mother only loves her and doesn't care about me. Why though? We're both her children, and I'm clearly more well-behaved than Lina. But mom is always on her side, and I'm always the one who gets blamed for her mistakes.
Just like now...
"You're really useless! The only thing that you know is to cause me a headache!" Mom yelled angrily as she pointed her finger at me.
"Mom. It wasn't really me. I swear. I didn't break your favorite vase. It was Lina. Trust me mom, it wasn't me. It really wasn't. HU HU HU." I cried so hard, looking at her with pleading eyes, hoping that she would believe me this time. Just once. Just this one time. Please.
But what did I expect? This is mom we're talking about, "And now you're putting the blame on your sister?! How dare you! You're so evil at such a young age!" she continued yelling at me. Pushing my head using her long slender fingers. The hands that was supposed to hold me affectionately is the same hands that cause me bruises instead.
I knew mom won't believe me. But maybe, she will believe that it wasn't me if Lina was the one to tell her. Maybe then, mom would feel guilty of how she treats me. Maybe then, she'll hug me and say sorry. Then, she'll finally love me. Because I'm a good daughter. It really wasn't me.
I looked at Lina with pleading eyes. Hoping that this younger sister would feel sorry for lying and tell mom the truth. But no, she... Just looked away. She looked away like she didn't saw me. She looked away like she didn't care.
Why? Why are you being like this? Do you hate me? Why would you blame me? Did I wrong you Lina? Why does nobody love me? Just why?!
Hopeless, I looked at my mother's ruthless eyes. But what she said next, totally ruined my young heart. "Why did I even give birth to you? I should have obeyed mom and got rid of you when you were still just a blood in my stomach. But now you are already such a big nuisance. TSK."
If I was born as Lina, would things be different? If I was the youngest, would I be the one receiving mom's love and attention? If I wasn't born, would I feel this much hurt?
I hope I never existed. Maybe mom is right, I'm a worthless being. Why am I even alive?
Then, should I just die?
.....
