Mother's Fraustration
I’m tired of him!
Who the hell does he think he is
to insult me that way?
insult: to speak to or treat
with disrespect.
I cannot believe it.
I am the adult.
How dare he?
Where does he get the nerve
to speak that way?
the nerve:
the audacity,
the boldness,
the arrogance,
the cockiness,
Where does he get the nerve
to speak that way?
I just don’t know what to say.
I’m at a loss for words here.
I cannot believe our daughter
is dating an animal like that.
What a piece of crap he is.
What a piece of shit he is.
You know, I told her
to stay away from Americans.
Did she listen?
Of course not.
She does what she wants to do anyway.
What’s the point?
I never liked him from day one.
Hey, I’m sorry, but
it’s how my mother raised me.
She told me, "Nella, you stay away
from those American boys.
They are conceited and jealous".
conceited: excessively proud of oneself
So, that’s exactly what I did.
I respected my mother's wishes.
If my mother said
jump in front of a train
I would have,
because I trusted her word.
My daughter,
completely different story altogether.
She rebels,
She defies,
She disobeys
She rebels against
what I want her to do.
She forgets all that I do for her
as a mother and as a friend.
Sometimes I can’t believe
she was raised under this roof.
Whatever, I’m through with it,
let them both do what they want.
I don’t care anymore.
At least my other daughter
listens to me.
She’s my pride and joy.
Thank God for her.
She keeps me sane.
She keeps me of sound mind.
I never have to complain about that one.
A perfect little angel.
Alright now…
Let’s do that one more time!
Faster and smoother.
Repeat- After-Me
