Jealous
Keeping Luccia happy is Mom's priority. Her stupid cat who nibbles on the knots of my shoelaces and knocks over furniture that conveniently gets broken and blamed on me. Luccia scratches my mom while she works then gets knit booties and kisses. All my life, I've sat by every foster home door, waiting for the person who knocked to be my mom demanding that I come with her immediately. But nope. I aged out and reconnected with her only to watch her kiss her cat and kick me to the curb once again every day.
