I have to prepare for my goal again, Have good grades and never, ever lose focus on school work.
Rising Action
Why are they staring at me? Do I have a fly on my nose?
One Saturday evening in the middle of July, my family and I were in the house doing nothing because my dad was working and when he isn't, we just go shopping and have family time. But because he was working, my family and I didn't have plans on where to go. We were just staring at the glossy, brown floor as if there was a competition on who stared at the floor the longest. Out of the blue, my sister stood up and started walking to the door and stated, We should go out. We can't waste beautiful weather like this. She wasn't wrong, we haven't experienced a beautiful, windy day during the summer. We then stared at my mom who had my brother on her lap and was still staring at the floor like she found a hundred-dollar bill. She then stated, I've got a great idea!
Climax
Just have family time. Always help out and have fun!
I have to make new actions. I have to create a btter version of me, for my mom, and my family!
After 15 minutes of packing the diaper bag filled with essential items for my brother and obviously, soft, white, diapers, we were off to my mom's idea, my godparent's house. We haven't been there since a party that took place there about 1 month ago. We took the same route as always, having the time to see my future high school football field. When staring at it this time, I felt something I have never felt before. The same feeling I felt when reading my speech at my 8th-grade promotion. I believe it was because of course, in less than a month, I was going to be attending that school. I started thinking about the goals I always have each year, Have good grades and never, ever lose focus on school work. I know I have less than a month on vacation but the same feeling I have every time was coming back and I did not like it.
Falling Action
After a 6-minute road trip that felt like an entirely, maybe because I was thinking about the high school I was going to attend in less than a month, we arrived at our destination. We waited until my godmother opened the gate and my mom parked in their driveway. As always, we greeted our family like my parents have taught us because people always love good manners. We then sat on their cozy, gray couch that feels like you are laying on a fluffy white cloud. My siblings went with their cousins to play outside while the grown-ups started talking about the events that occurred during their weeks and of course, drama. I didn't like listening to them because when I hear something bad, my blood boils out of anger. Instead, I ended up watching the soccer game until I saw my mom and godmother staring at me like I said something disprepectufl.
Resoultion
I love you mom!
I love you more!
I was completely scared of what was going to happen next. Out of the blue, they were having a conversation about me and wanted me to have a conversation with them. My mom mentioned how I am always doing homework all the time which causes me not to help around the house. Just because of this, my godmother gave me a 30-minute lesson about my life and how I can have fun while having good grades at school which I didn't think was worth it. She explained to me that my cousin always had a great schedule where she helped around the house, went shopping, and even have plenty of time to do homework. She explained to me that a mother always loves when their children are always with them and help around the house because one day, they leave and build their family. I was happing when she finished the speech because one, I was already tired, and two, I could finally escape and see what my siblings were doing because as always, I am always curious.
After a long visit that lasted about 4 hours, we headed home and prepared to sleep. I wasn't sleepy as always but instead of staying all night scrolling through Tik Tok, I was thinking. I wasn't thinking about sports, what am I planning to do the next day, or the outfit I am planning on wearing, but instead, the lesson my godmother taught me. I was confused about why I was thinking about it that night. I kept on visualizing her face when she was talking to me. How her eyes were filled with sadness as if somebody killed a family member. Her brown eyes stare at my own black eyes as if somebody has stabbed her. I then realized, my godmother was crying when talking to me. I felt chills go all over my body. I started to tear up and realized that she was expressing her feeling toward me, and how she now feels without her children by her side. How she is teaching me this lesson not because she was jealous because I had all A's on my report grades but because she wants the best for me, for my mom. I realized how stupid I was in the conversation and how a bad daughter I am to my mom. How I just focus on homework and don't help around my family. I knew I had to take new actions.
The next morning, I woke up like a different person. I felt a new me inside me but I wasn't weirded out by that, instead, I was proud. I started to make a list of things I was planning to do for the day to spend time with my family. The first thing that occurred to me was to make breakfast. While I was making some amazing fluffy banana pancakes, my dad appeared in the corner of the kitchen and stated, Is that you?. I was at first confused but then I realized that I have never been awake at such an early time so I responded politely. I was happy my dad woke up because, with his help, the breakfast was finished in less than 10 minutes. While he was completing the last batch of pancakes, I started to prepare the table, and then out of the blue, my mom popped out of the living room with a huge smile across her face. I later explained why I was wide awake in the morning making pancakes for them. She started to tear up and hugged me as if I was going to die any second but I didn't complain. Instead, I just smiled, thinking that the lesson my godmother taught me was very valuable and changed my life of mine. Since this day, I have improved on time management and having time with my family. My new goal for each year is to make time in the day to hang out with my family no matter at what cost. Family is important.
