My Life by Asalah Almardahi
My life is kinda complicated. There I go to the grave yard. I go there almost everyday at 6 a.m. I just walk around and put some flowers for my mom because I miss her. I get home late sometimes because I’m afraid that my dad will throw his anger at me for no specific reason. I’m just a girl who’s just depressed sometimes, maybe most of the time. I’m pretty sure teenagers go through that, but it’s fine. Adults always say, “life gets better once you try something new than just stay in your room all alone like a bear in its cave.” I’m pretty sure that all adults just say that just for us teens. People. When I mean people, I mean adults that are really annoying and like to compare themselves with other people. For example, I said, “Dad why are you always mad?” He always says, “Because I’m always mad there’s no need for a reason. I’m like a guy who doesn’t care about anything.” That explains why he’s so moody. There I go on my way home. Just trying to get there before 7 a.m. so I can finish my assignments. As I arrived home I see that stupid robot again. The robots here are so annoying. I thought 2020 was a bad year, but it’s just 2021. To me the robots there are just basically servants but they talk a lot and sometimes they can be so messed up. I really don’t get why these robots are, you know, “helpful.” All they do is ruin things. Many people like these robots just because they work for them like servants. I don’t like them because they never leave me alone. Like if I’m on the roof trying to drink my Capri Sun in peace I’ll see a robot right behind me saying, “So how’s life for you,” which is pretty annoying if you ask me. I’m already home now and all I see is my dad just drinking and making out with his girlfriend. That’s pretty annoying and weird to watch what your own dad does. Dads can be good but bad to kids at the same time, you know, but I just go with it. I yell, “I’m home.” My dad ignores me because he can’t hear me through that making out with his girlfriend. As I just walked up the stairs I bumped into a robot. I picked the robot up and threw him in the trash because I hurt my feet. I swear robots are so annoying this year. I’m just hoping that the future will get better and there won’t be robots. Whoever made 52
