actually answered her
like they were having just your average run of the mill conversation. “Yes I
do, she asked me to and well, she’s my mom now too in a way.”
    Oh please don’t let this bitch
croak when I don’t have my camera. That’s the kind of shit you need for
posterity’s sake.
    Oh boy oh boy oh boy this was
getting so good. Clueless had no idea of the shit storm that was brewing,
hagfish was about to blow and the little skank that could was about to pop.
    “So Vanessa I didn’t know you knew
my friend Jasper Nash.” Here she goes, I wondered how long it would take her.
    “He told me you two met at his mansion the other day, for
lunch.” She sneered at me and I wanted to gouge her eye out.
    “Yes we did, have you been
there yet? it’s gorgeous. Especially the master suite,
I had a lot of fun working in there.” I tried to keep a straight face but then
clueless had to go and spoil it.
    “Who’s this Jasper guy?” He didn’t
look too pleased about this turn of events. I pulled his head down and
whispered in his ear. “Remember the pictures I showed you of the mansion the
guy wants to redecorate as a surprise for his new bride?”
    “Oh yeah I forgot.” He was back
to smiling again.

 
 
    When she realized there were no
fireworks forthcoming she went back to looking like she was passing a
gallstone.
    I was getting settled into my bouillabaisse when momma the shit
stirrer really did it.
    “So when are you guys coming
out to New York, what day I mean? I hope you’re not just gonna come up Xmas eve. Your father and I are looking forward to having at least a
week with you guys this time. We can go shopping a few days before and Dami we can take you ice skating at Rockefeller Plaza,
you’ll love it.”
    “Wait what? what’s going on?” Haggie had her hackles raised. “You’re
going to be gone for the holidays?”
    “Yes mom, I thought we talked about this before. We spent
Thanksgiving with you this year and we’re spending Xmas with Nessa’s parents.”
    “Yes, well, I didn’t think
anything was settled. Our family has always spent the holidays together. I’m
sure Jackie and Dan wouldn’t mind if you came later; would you?” She looked at
my mom. This lady really is ass stupid.
    Before mom could answer I felt
Damien tense beside me. “No mom, it’s settled, we’ve already made our plans.”
Cue the hostile glares in my direction. I kept my head in my bowl because it
was too soon to laugh in her horrid face, but the strain was killing me.
    “Well now my dinner’s been
ruined. I can’t believe you’d spring a thing like this on me just a few short
weeks before the holiday. It’s very inconsiderate, and after all the trouble
I’ve gone to to make it special.”
    “Leave it alone Mabel, the kids
have their plans set already. No sense in spoiling everyone’s evening.” Poor
Clarence, he tries.
    “Oh stuff it Clarence, don’t
expect me to sit here and watch my family being destroyed and say nothing.
She’s been nothing but a headache ever since she came along. Nothing’s ever
been the same and now this. My own son is deserting me on the most precious day
of the year.” Cue the waterworks. Was this bitch high or had they upped her
meds? Usually she never showed her ass in mixed company, she usually saved that
shit for our special alone time. Like when we used to take bathroom breaks
together. I’d wised up to that shit quick though and soon started finding any
excuse not to be alone with the demon spawn.
    Clueless was wearing a curious look
on his face like he still didn’t get it. I guess mom had schooled dad, because
although I could see the vein popping in his forehead, he held his peace. I had
yet to say a word edgewise, this was the Mabel Spencer show for one.
    “I don’t appreciate your sneaky
underhanded tactics young lady. You know how important it is for me to have
family around me for the holidays, I thought we understood that. But I see I
was wrong. You
