S31 122. Point Number One

“My blessing?” Mrs. Connor’s eyebrows rose high. After one blink, she sighed in resignation. “Your hallucinations are really bad, Ava.”

Ava gasped. She didn’t know that her mother could yell.

“You still don’t believe me? Are you taking Eva’s side, like you’ve always done?” Ava’s disappointment almost spilled over, but was held back by annoyance.

“Don’t make me repeat it, Ava. I’m so tired of you. Get out! My head is starting to hurt from hearing your bullshit.”
