I was being inducted as a thespian last Friday. I told her about it for weeks and even the night before asked her if she could grab something for before the banquet. Four hours before it starts I message her to remind her about picking that thing up for me and she says that she's out of town and forgot all about it. I was devastated. I knew my mom and dad just left the house not too long ago either because of the timing so I ask if she will still be able to make it (I was hoping she would turn around) and she just said: "We will see". I didn't see them that afternoon and was so upset I didn't even want to go anymore. I still went, but seeing all the other kids with their parents being all proud made me want to cry. All my life my parents missed out on stuff of mine. My biological father worked a lot but after he kicked me out last year he won't be attending my graduation ceremony this Thursday. My mom missed concerts, citizenship awards, and never went to the family picnic days. I vividly remember the crushing feeling of disappointment as I sat alone in a room eating my school lunch as I heard the other kids and their families outside being normal. Last Friday night it just brought all of those feelings back. She apologized the next day but I'm still mad. She had the ability to turn around and make it, but she didn't. Am I not worth it?
