Broken With My Mother In Law

“What? Of course, I’m not. But you really don’t need to do that for me.” I bowed my head and continued to “eat” the cake she prepared for me, listening to some strange questions from her.

“Very interesting, isn’t it? So on to the next question. Are there any genetic diseases in your family? You know, these may be passed on to my grandchildren. I hope you can answer truthfully.” She asked very seriously, which should be what she wanted to ask herself. Pulling lawyers in is a cover. I knew what she was doing. She was really a schemer. She used her will and her attorney to ask me those nonsense questions. 

“No. we don’t have any genetic diseases. ” I swallowed a small mouthful of fish fillet kidney cake and told her truthfully. I really want to stop eating but I don’t want her to be offended so I keep on eating small amounts.

“Okay, clear on that. I was relieved to know that you don’t have any. How many men have you had sex with before? Or how many relationships have you had before my son?” She took off her glasses and looked at me defiantly. She really wants to know everything about me.

“Huh? Why are they asking? Do I need to answer that?” It’s a stupid and ridiculous question. I smiled and took a sip of the red wine glass in front of me.

“You don’t want to say, I think you had a lot, right? Would you like to sign a prenuptial agreement? Of course, it’s for my son’s safety.” She widened her eyes, thought I had sex with a lot of men, and said what she thought was right without logic.

“What are you talking about? What do you mean?” I was starting to get irritated by her questions but I wonder why she needs to ask those.

“I know that you are just having fun then and It’s none of my business. If you don’t want to answer it, it’s okay then let’s talk about it another day.” I looked at her. I didn’t know what she was thinking. I really wanted to pick up the pan on the table and swing it in her face. She was really annoying me.

“I won’t ask you any questions. Now you can enjoy your dinner. I’ll clean the kitchen after you finish eating. Enjoy your food.” She finally stops asking her mindless questions. 

“No, no, you have cooked. I’ll clean it up. You can go and have a rest.” I returned politely. She went out and I was really relieved to see her leaving. I hope she finishes quickly so that she can go to her room and rest.

“Are you sure?” She took a peek at the entrance of the dining table. In my head I say ‘Sure, if you don’t leave, how can I dump that disgusting dish?’ 

 “Of course,” I smiled at her.

“I’m a little tired, so I’ll go down first. I didn’t sleep well last night. Thank you and please after you finish the dishes go to your room and have your rest. Goodnight!” She held her forehead and went out.

“You didn’t sleep well?” When she went out, I cursed in a low voice. I knew she had a nightmare but she was still sleeping peacefully at my side.

Linda’s Point Of View

When she went out, I quickly put away everything and started to clean the kitchen. 

After finishing everything, I thought that I may be able to sleep, but I was not sleepy at all. I nested on the sofa in the living room and planned to watch TV for a while.

“Look at the bus! It’s skidding, it’s out of control, the bus’s out of control.” There was a boring commentary on TV, so I changed the channel again.

“Is anyone here? Tina, Tina? Hello? Is anyone here?” I turned the channel of the tv to seventy-five, it was a horror movie. I suddenly became interested, I changed into my comfortable posture because I wanted to be focused on the movie. I felt that there was someone with me so I said, “Who is it?” Looking up.

“Ah-ah…” I quickly jumped up from the sofa when I heard the screams, I was really frightened by the sound. I saw Diana meter away in a very strange suit, with a face covered and her long nails. I don’t know when she came or where she came from. But I was really scared. 

I was terrified to death by her screams, and is she going to stay up overnight just to pretend to be a ghost? I thought to myself. What is she doing? 

“Why you? Oh, my God. I thought you were asleep. You really scared me to death!” I calmed my heart and breathed several breaths. My heart was racing rapidly. She always tortured me by surprise. She really would be the death of me if she would not stop doing that.

“I can’t sleep, he never forgets my birthday, and of course now he doesn’t care anymore. Do you mind if I sit next to you?” She was very disappointed and annoyed at the same time. the dim light reflected in her face, she looked more vicious terror, she waved her hand, wanting to sit next to me.

“It’s okay, just sit down next to me.” I really want to tell her to go back to her room and rest but of course I didn’t tell her that. 

My thoughts were ‘can I get rid of you? Can you go back to your house? Why are you so annoying? Why do you always want to come in our way? Why don’t you just be like other supportive mothers? Why are you so vicious?’ I rolled my eyes in my heart.

“Just sit for a while” she walked next to me and sat. I was wondering why she had to sit next to me if the sofa was so wide that five people could sit comfortably.

“What is she running for?” She looked at the movie I was watching on TV and asked me.

“Oh, she’s being chased.” I told her nonchalantly.Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.

“Why chase her? by whom? Did she do something wrong? What happened? ” She replied curiously to me. 

“I don’t know yet. I just turned it up on that channel. I was just about to watch it also.”

“Oh, who is she then? Is she the lead star? Do you know her? What’s her real name?” she was really curious about the movie.

“I don’t know, we have to watch it first, it was a horror movie. Don’t talk anymore, you will spoil the movie. Just watch. ” I patiently replied to her and told her not to talk any more.

“Well, don’t you hate the clothes she wears? Why is she wearing that in the first place? Running outside barefoot, and, uh, the pajamas? It’s too fake. They should make it more realistic. I once did a show on an evening program, you won’t believe how much demography has affected broadcasting. I mean, it’s ridiculous. All they care about is the cost. It’s nice to sit with your family and do nothing, isn’t it? I don’t even have to talk. It’s great. I really miss being an office worker’s mother. I used to take Donald to the set. That’s where he met Gore Vader and Jackie Chan. Are there other celebrities in this movie? Because I don’t know them, they all look the same, all the girls have the same body, all the boys have the same hair, are there so many beautiful people living in Los Angeles? I think all the beautiful genes are in California. Why did he kiss her? I can’t understand it. Why are you watching that? It’s too fake and they look stupid.” 

I’m suppressing my anger; I need to calm down. listening to her gushing, I was very upset. I just want to watch a movie. But why does she want to ruin it? Of course, she really wants to annoy the hell out of me.

 The more she was blabbing about her experience and her feedback on the movie, the more energetic she became. It was really irritating to hear.
