This choice: She disregards the thought, and goes about her day like normal. • Go Back...Chapter #5She disregards the thought, and goes about her ... by: Hectic   Talia's gaze lingered for a few moments more on her mother's left foot. She felt like there was something she should be noticing about it but couldn't quite put her finger on it. It looked a bit different, but maybe her mother had just recently applied a new kind of lotion or exfoliated it. Eventually she shook the feeling, but right as she was about to turn around and disregard her suspicion, Teresa called out.
"What are you looking at sweetie? Is there something wrong with my outfit?" Teresa looked confused at her daughter, waiting to hear her response. Talia said back, "Oh no, sorry mom. It just looked like there was something stuck to your left foot but I can't see anything. Didn't mean to worry you" and she left the living room. Teresa laughed briefly at her daughter's statement before going back to her book. She read for a few more minutes, but then a thought began to creep into her head. After her workout she did feel the tiniest squish under her sole right before going in the bathroom. Teresa thought long and hard about what it could be, maybe a stray washrag or sock on the ground, but she couldn't quite figure it out. Finally after some time had passed, a light bulb flipped on in her head, and she said, "Oh no, not again" as she quickly hurried to the bathroom. Her feet slammed onto the carpet, her pace indicating that she must be in a rush. To you this might mean she realized what she did to you!
Teresa reached the bathroom, then closed and locked the door. She steeled her nerves for a second, fearing that she may have crushed her daughter's tiny little boyfriend. Eventually she lifted her left foot onto the counter, and inspected it. Initially it looked like nothing more than her normal sole, but she decided to take a closer look just to be sure. Meanwhile, you prayed that she would notice and let you free. You couldn't tell but by the way your body folded over on itself the tiniest tuft of black hair was visible, also glued to the middle of her sole. When Teresa saw this tiniest clue her dreaded suspicions were confirmed. She sighed and said,
"God damn it, how does this always happen to me." You heard this and you were elated. She finally noticed you and would begin the process of taking you off. But Teresa interrupted your train of thought with something that chilled you to the core.
"Listen up, umm, Brad? No that's not it. Is it like, Bug? Yeah I think that's right. Okay listen up, Bug, I don't know what happened to make you stuck to my foot like this, but uhh I have no idea how to get little tiny guys unattached to me. And I would ask Talia for advice, buuuut that isn't going to happen." You were flabbergasted, why was Teresa being like this to you? She even thought your actual name was Bug! You thought you and her had a great relationship before this, but then she continued, "It's not that I don't like you, Bug. It's just that, well, my daughter would hate me if she found out I did this to another one of her boyfriends. You see, Talia has always liked squishy boys for whatever reason, but I have just had the worst luck ever with all of them. It all started when she was in elementary school and she brought a tiny guy, just like you, over for a play date. He was such a cute boy, but he just had to get close to the blender while I was making myself a milkshake. Somehow I knocked the little dude in when he was trying to sneak a taste and well... I ended up blending him up and drinking him. Right as I finished the last drop I noticed a slight hint of flavor that I didn't remember putting in my milkshake. Then when Talia came in the kitchen to ask where her friend went, I put the pieces together. I felt so terrible about it that I told Talia immediately, and she did not take it well. I apologized so many times, but she wouldn't forgive me! She didn't talk to me for the rest of the day! It was one of the worst days of my life."
You could not believe Teresa's speech to you. She was seriously going to leave you as part of her foot for the rest of your life just so she didn't have to face her daughter being mad at her. This was unbelievable! She was actively ruining your entire life just to avoid a small confrontation. You thought Teresa was finished, but she went on to add,
"Since then I've tried my best to avoid you guys whenever she brings you around, but for whatever reason you tiny people are just pulled to me like you're magnets! First, there was her middle school boyfriend who was sitting on the lounge chair out back... I can't help it if I like to tan naked! How was I supposed to see such a little guy on the chair! He should have been watching out for my butt!" Teresa was evidently flustered by the situation as she began to spill secrets that not even her daughter knew. She continued, "Then there was her boyfriend freshman year of high school. I don't know why he was in my bikini top in the first place, but by the time I discovered him on the underside of my boob there was no way I could free him. Ugh, why do you people stick to my skin so easily?! I don't get it!" Teresa paused for a second to calm herself, "It took a while but eventually they both tanned with my skin enough until there was no trace of them at all anymore. And sure their parents were worried, but why would they think to inspect my body for their sons? I feel really bad, but as far as bodies go, I'm sure the little guys aren't too upset to be stuck to mine. Well maybe the one stuck in my ass doesn't love his life too much but he's got to be used to it by now. And I'm sorry, Bug, but I guess you're the next one to join them. This is the last time I'll be talking to you so try to enjoy your life on my foot. I mean, you're providing my left sole with a nice bit of cushion so bam! You're already serving a good purpose! You should be proud of that. Now, I'm going to put makeup on you until I can find the time to tan both of us, so my daughter doesn't notice. Good luck, Bug! Both me and Talia will miss you!"
With that Teresa swiftly applied a layer of foundation to you and sealed your fate. Barring a change of heart in her, there was no way you could ever escape this situation. This was by far the worst thing that has happened to you. Someone who you thought had liked you was willing to destroy your future just to save her own skin. Your only hope was that her conscience would one day win her over, but that was only a dream. Teresa placed her left foot back on the ground, crushing you firmly on the bathroom floor, and you wished you could cry. She then walked back toward the living room where Talia was now sitting and plopped down next to her on the couch. Talia turns to Teresa and asks her,
"Hey Mom? This is a weird question but was that thing on your foot earlier possibly my boyfriend? Ben has a habit of getting squished to things and I just wanted to make sure that wasn't him.
Teresa began to sweat immediately, and she responds...   indicates the next chapter needs to be written. |
