Turbulence

Chapter 8

May 20th
I’m grounded, or as grounded as I can get when I live in the clouds.

I had a huge fight with Dawn about my father, I don’t remember exactly what was said but I know it went something like this.
I asked if I would get to meet my father sometime, she said that I sat with him at dinner everyday. As you’ve probably guessed that isn’t true so I got really confused, than light dawned (no pun intended) Dawn meant Myth Chaser, her husband. Then I told her I meant my real father, as in the stallion who knocked my mother up at some party. She told me off for language and said that Her Son, no pony will tell me his name I think they’re afraid that I’ll try to find him, is at the Wonderbolt Academy. I asked why I couldn’t live with my father and she started yelling at me about how he was irresponsible and unfit to be a father to me.

After giving me a lecture on how she had to send him away to learn how to be a responsible adult she looked like she was going to leave me alone, then I made the mistake of talking back.

I think I said something along the lines of “I’m sure you would have put my mother there too if you could.” She totally freaked, between the unintelligible yelling and the panting I could get the basic idea of what she was saying. She had a few things she was mad about, I need to be more grateful to her for ‘rescuing me’, my mother was just like my father and how she was my mother and not my actual mother.

Sorry, I’ll clarify the last one using the same word too many times can get really confusing. So Dawn was telling me that she was my mother and not Spotlight who is my real mother.

I tried to sneak off but she grabbed me, by my ear which really hurt, and dragged me back so she could tell me off for not listening to her. Then she grounded me on accounts of multiple offenses including disrespect and the dreaded crime of talking about my real parents.

She is so annoying.
