You seem upset.” My mother asked me while we were driving home. “Ugh..” I groaned in stress “It’s just that Lauren had to invite Nicole to come to the dance with us this Friday, and you know that 3 peas don’t fit in one pot, and whenever Lauren invites someone else to a place we’re going, I just don’t enjoy it rather than if it’s just Lauren and I.…

Parent Relationships One can wonder, what is it like to not know their own mother or father? Many people could relate about that but not knowing about your own parent hurts. In both of the literature selections, the narrators build up tension in both stories in each event that takes place in the story. For example, in Excerpt from “Father” by Alice Walker, the narrator explains how she wasn’t able to bond with her father even now since he’s dead. Also, in The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini,…

One of my middle brothers, Lucas Wheeler, was always the troublemaker of the family. Ever since the day my father left my mother, he has made my mom’s life a living hell at times. He was by far the closest to my biological father, so the day that he left was not easy for Lucas. He used to spit at my mom when he was mad at her and said “how do you like that?” My mother would have to hold him down while he threw a temper tantrum and when he was done, he would cry and say “I just want my dad”.…
