About a year ago, I stole a black tshirt my youngest sister. She came home for holidays and before she left, i took the tshirt out of her bag. My sisters and I have been stealing clothes from each other for ever.
This black tshirt had some writing on it and I never bothered to read what it is.It is black( my favourite colour) and cotton. I have been wearing it at home all the while.
Yesterday I was in the kitchen and my oldest was standing next to me. Out of the blue she said ‘mama is a maniac” and like all maniac’s something snapped and barrage of crap came out of my mouth. I was so mad. Not enough that I am a maniac, I don’t need a 7 year old to tell me that. My poor child looked stunned. She was just about to burst out crying and told me she just read what is written in my tshirt.
I looked at my tshirt. It is written “MANIAC” in bold and side ways the m is ‘e’ for eyewear,n is ‘c’ for creative and the c is ‘u’ for unlimitted.
Damn, I can never ever tell you the guilt I felt..I made my child cry for no reason
