Drop! Ping! Scream!! “What!? Come again!?” Can’t believe my ear.  “You getting married!!!” scream my mother excitedly. “Yes, Tom had just propose me at the dinner.” my sister said. “Oh my god! Look at the ring, dear!!” my mom looking at my sister engagement ring, then she look at me angrily. Hailey Stocks the third daughter in the family, ‘she only twenty!!’ I scream in my head. No it can’t be, when did she dated. How come I didn’t know? Great, mom going to nag on me again. I’m going to hear it again from her, “Erica’s when are you going to get married you almost thirty!!” my mom look at me sharply. ‘Great! Here we go again’ I pretended to read. Ignoring my mother. She added “Now Hailey’s give me a good news, when will you give me good news, Erica? You the eldest and you still single!!” my mom almost scream. Pretending reading the new story on my phone, not looking at my angry mother on the other sides on the chair. She stare at me like a hungry beast ready to choke me down. “Well it’s not my fault that I’m single till today, it just all the guys I went out or blind’s date with never last than to second date.” I said murmured softly, don’t know she heard or not. “It must be your fault that the date when horrible!!” she said, “Really Erica’s you should wear something nice once in a while on date, where skirts and blouse; not jeans and t-shirt.” She added. “Well I’m being comfortable around them, I’m sure there are guys that accept that on the first date,” I shrugged. “Does it work? “No right? Then you should not wear jeans and t-shirt then.” she continue “The next time you have date, YOU ARE GOING TO WEAR SKIRTS AND BLOUSE!! NO JEANS OR T-SHIRT, that’s FINAL.” She emphasise it. I Sigh, “find skirt and blouse.” I agreed to her, not wanting to add fuel on my furious mother.
