Relief
This story is about a sixteen year old girl who works at a local restaurant. One day she had gone to a late night party without her mother's permission. Her mother found out and they got into a big fight. Though they had frequent mother daughter fights this one was brutal. Kathryn was very upset and a little depressed and all she would do is sleep before work then cry and then get back to sleep after work. This regular behavior made her mother very angry and one day she screamed at her about how she was not part of the family with this type of behavior and that her snapping against her colleagues was very negative. Kathryn's mother got fed up and told her to write an apology note to her saying sorry for what she had done and was continuing to do. After receiving a piece of paper she thought about how her colleagues at work were distancing themselves from her. When she finished writing the note to her mother she placed it on her pillow. The next day when she went to the bathroom for a shower she saw a note on the mirror from her mom. It said that her mom would help her and that she knew that Kathryn was scared. When she got in that shower tears came out, but this time it was tears if relief and not of sadness.
