Watch a Girl Grow, I Grow BIG.

I got that one hand then I got the other. I got the one trigger then I got the grenade. I got the boy but then I want to be that girl. I found myself at the worlds edge and putting on a show for you. I place myself in front of the stage and dance and dance for your entertainment.
I got the trigger then I got the grenade.

I showed up unannounced, I knew she would love that. I knew she would be so happy, her daughter in-law showing up to her own sons birthday party. I deserved to be there. I fuck the him for christ sakes, now let me be there to sit by him and tease him under the table, right in front of the head bitch. I entered into the living room where all the family gathered. I was dressed in all white to remind them I'm married to this man. Silence crashed down as soon as I walked in. All faces blank and in complete horror. I could here them "Why is she here and who invited her?"
"Minnie, what are you doing here?" She fucking said it. Even with a snarl at the end. "It's my husbands birthday, I would like to enjoy it with him. I figured that wouldn't be a problem." Stale talking from myself. His father, Mervin, typical, got up from his chair and walked towards me. He put his arm around my waist. "Well, of course dear. Come on in. Lets get you a seat." Only the men loved me. Women hated me for their own reasons. I guess they knew I could and WOULD snatch their men away. "Thank you, Mervin."

I sat right next to my husband and Mervin sat on the other side of me. "So, Minnie how have you been. Seems I haven't seen you in awhile."
"You haven't Mervin, for choices that were not up to me. But I am good, thank you." He turned his heads towards the scrunt. Gave her a look of a certain HOW DARE YOU magnitude. She gave it right back to him. "Well, Minnie we are glad to have you here. Please stay for a while. Can I get you anything?"
"No I'm fine thank you." The whole entire family just pounded their hate on top of me, with their stares, snarls, lips, and thoughts. I just held on to my husband the only one who cared enough to keep holding on to me knowing he was happy I was there. The only person who would die for him. I looked at him, he smiled to me. "I'm happy you came. I don't think I could have made it through the day."

I love him. "Well, how could I give up a chance to make your mother stir crazy?" We laughed all day and only looked at one another. We were happy.
