Here are some of the reasons (amongst a plethora) why I hate The Evil Woman, and reasons why you should NOT attempt to alleviate my distaste towards her.
1. She once slapped me for letting my brother walk the dog. Because a 6 year old can't control the dog and the dog might charge out to the road, with my brother pulling along the leash. And they'll both get knocked down and possibly die. Wonderful.
2. SHE LOVES TO HAVE FACE.
a)i) Our family has to attend family dinners that no other people from our extended family bother to attend at all just because we have to 'show respect to ah gong'.
ii) Oh and also, she nitpicks on the clothes we choose to wear to those family dinners. "That top you're wearing is too revealing", "You can't wear slippers! Wear something else", "You are supposed to wear a red/pink shirt, our whole family is wearing a red/pink shirt and if you don't it does not show that we are united!!" (For your information, I ended up wearing a white shirt. Just to go against her.) (And when we do get to the family dinners, most of the time we are a tad overdressed.)
b)i) During those family dinners, everyone is just eating happily and she might suddenly blurt out, "Look at my daughter(s), she's/they're pretty isn't she/aren't they?"
ii) And when those people civilly/genuinely respond that yes, her daughter(s) is/are pretty, she responds, "Everyone says so too! I have no idea why. I don't even think they're that pretty!"
c) She was embarrassed to tell her sisters that her son was actually the last in class the last year, but this year she happily boasted that her son is the second in class.
d) And many other similar cases. I have too many to state. Moving on.
3. She holds herself in a high regard. (read: arrogant/proud/over-confident)
4. a)i) She made me pay for the textbooks that I apparently 'lost' when the fact is the textbooks got lost because she insisted on having a spring cleaning session at home.
ii) The textbooks (+ a calculator) amount to nearly a hundred dollars. I had to pay for it from my own allowance. Now I am left with $113 in my bank account and I still have to pay for the dental appointment this month ($100) and the phone bill. Fuck you.
iii) Because she just HAD TO have a spring cleaning session, the diaries I wrote when I was in primary school are now all MIA.
5. She does not get her facts right. She accused me of slacking and playing games/chatting/blogging on the laptop when I was rushing out a proposal.
6. And even after I retorted that I was doing work (by showing her I was typing a proposal out), she backtracked and said tartly, "Fine, but you still shouldn't leave your work till the last minute. You always do and now you always sleep late."
7. Once when I jokingly mentioned in front of my friend (Jade) that The Evil Woman's English sucks (and it really does), she immediately pulled me aside and smacked me. And barked out that I was being disrespectful to her.
8. Once after Ninja-do, my brother and I waited and waited for her come and fetch us from the Community Club but she didn't. In the end we decided to walk home ourselves, seeing that our house isn't very far from the Community Club. (By the way we walked there earlier that evening.) When we got home it was a bit over 10 PM.
She called home and demanded why were we not there (at the CC). I said we walked home because she didn't pick up her phone. When she came back it was around 11 PM. Unfortunately, I was walking out of the kitchen and she was coming from the corridor. She saw me. I saw her. I tried to hasten my pace and escape to the bathroom upstairs. She bellowed in rage, "LIM HUI EN, STAND RIGHT THERE!" I jumped, shocked with the volume of the voice. She came in the house, slamming the gate behind her. She gripped my arm and started to yell at me. I was jaded and tried to ignore her.
She pulled me to the living room, made me sit down and continued shouting at me. I showed no response. She was crying and scolding me at the same time. I got so sick of it that I started to cry. I was so tired, it was over 12 by then, there was school the next day, I was drenched in sweat. I just wanted to bathe and crash into my bed. She then seemed pleased that she had made me cry. She then said, "Why are you crying?" I shook my head vigorously. She said, "Tell me. I think you are crying because you are guilty."
9. a)i) Earlier this year I escaped to my aunt's house in the middle of the night because I'd just quarreled with her earlier on. I had wanted to go to a friend's house but decided to go to my aunt's house instead. I told my dad I was leaving. He let me go because he felt that if he didn't, I might get angry and decide to go to my friend's house instead. And letting me go to my aunt's house would be safer because at least he would know where I was and he could trust me with my aunt. The Evil Woman was outraged upon knowing this and thus started a cold war with my dad.
ii) When I did go home the next day she refused to go home and meet me. She went drinking/eating supper with her friends. My dad went to meet her and told her, "Your daughter is home, you ought to go home and talk to her." She gave my dad the cold shoulder. My dad shouted at her and asked her when she was going to stop running away. She shouted back at my dad and an ugly debate ensued right there in the coffee shop.
iii) When she did get home, the next day I skipped school and tried to talk things out with her. It was a futile effort. It ended when she said she had a headache and wanted to rest. In the end we did not come to an agreement or anything. Things were left there, hanging.
10. According to The Evil Woman, my attitude is bad and that is no wonder why so many people in school dislike me. Hahaha! C'mon, do you know that all your office staff are terrified of you and all your sisters dislike you? Even your mother (my maternal grandmother) can't stand you. That is why she moved out and never wanted to come back to our house to stay over for more than a night each time. I bet you know none of these. And you are still deluded into thinking that the whole world loves you, and those who don't love you are, in your holy opinion, losers/suckers.
11. Yesterday The Evil Woman called me all the way from Kuala Lumpur to scream at me. When I was merely asking if she took my paint brushes. She was outraged and said I'm always accusing her when my things go missing, and it is because I don't have my own organisation system, that is why I am always losing my things.
Please don't say I am being unfilial. Don't say I never tried to get along with her, I have. (DON'T BLOODY SAY I'M NOT TRYING HARD ENOUGH!!) It has been 2 years and 8 months ever since we started to quarrel like mad and you know what? I just can't get along with her, period. And if you think I am the only one in the family who is treating her like this, you are wrong. The three other members (excluding myself) in my family of five all hate her insane disposition. I am the only one who shows most blatantly how much I hate it.
