Were the hell am I?


Were the hell am I?


April Waligora woke up refreshed after a good night sleep. The best sleep she has had in her life time. She slept like a baby all night long, without wakening up not even once, which is unusual for her, because she always has trouble sleeping at night. She happily gets her butt out of bed and merrily goes down stairs to the kitchen. She makes herself a bowl of cereal and sits at the table. Her mom and dad are not there yet, and she is so relieved because they really get on her nerves, they are the most annoying people in the whole world. So she enjoys her breakfast without them. April is an only child so she gets all the attention; she can’t blame anyone else because there is no one to blame, so it is always her problem, her fault and she knows it’s true but who wants to hear it all the time? Not April.

Oh god no, I hear them, its mom and dad,
Good morning April her mom Sais,
Hey mom, hi dad.
It’s Saturday and me and your dad wanted to go to the lake today. How do you feel about that?
April thinks for a second, sure, if you guys want to go, but what time will you be back?
Aprils dad looks at his daughter, don’t you want to go too April.

Wow, they are being nice she thought, but it must be a trick, ok she thinks when are we leaving?
Her dad Sais in about an hour,
Ok I will get ready now,
Don’t forget your bathing suit her mother says softly.
Ok, April replies.
Then April looks at them for a second and notices something terrible,

There not my parents. Her mind is scrambling, they look like my mom and dad, but they can't be. My mom and Dad would never ever have been dressed this early if they didn't have to. Come to think of it, mom didn’t say what the fuck or anything vulgar yet and it’s almost ten in the morning? Then April starts to look around the kitchen for a few seconds in complete confusion. Why is this house so clean? Dads hair is combed and cut, this cannot be happening to me. I am losing my mind.

April thinks for a minute, keep your cool old girl, just stay calm because who else could they be? No, they can’t be aliens that are secretly trying to take over her planet. Just like the movie the body snatchers.

April slowly excuses herself from the table to go up stairs to her room so she can get dressed and also to just think about what is going on in her life. Either her parents are doing drugs and becoming like Barnie wan bees or they are aliens or she is nuts? They are doing a drug, that’s it, and she feels all ok and grounded again in that though. That makes much more sense to her then any of the other thoughts. And she remembers her mom saying that her and her dad were like nerds at school, and the uncool bunch of kids, so now in their old age, they starting to do all the things that they couldn’t do because no one would sell it to them.

So April is ok for the moment, but just then while she is picking out her outfit, a little green man pops up in her room. April thinks for a minute? Am I doing drugs? No, I am too smart for that.

Who are you April asks. I am your genie, and I am here to help you learn a good lesson. You have been sent to this alternate universe to live with your alternate family.
Why would you do this to me? What lesson is it that I am supposed to learn? Now April is kind of mad, who is anyone to tamper with my life without my permission she is thinking.
The little green genie doest care about what she is thinking, he knows she is in need to learn to love her family a lot more than she does. She takes her mom and dad for granted and the genie believes that a little time with a different family will prove to her that the grass is not always greener on the other side of the road.
April, you are a little bitch, and you are going to see that you are the problem, not your mom and dad,
April reaches for her pillow and swings it at the genie and sais I am not hearing this little green nobody, and then she hits him again and again with her favorite fluffy pillow.
Ouch stop it, stop it your brat, sais the little green man.
April gets her bathing suit, and flip flops and dashes down stairs to her new mom and dad, on an alternate universe similar to her own in every single way. The car ride with these two new parents was absolutely wonderful, pleasant and fun, why they all sang songs from the radio, talked and laughed, stopped to get a bite to eat at a nice restaurant off the highway. It was everything she ever wanted in a day out with her parents. April was beaming with delight, she thought, if I could be any happier, I would just pop, burst open and explode. She wanted this day to never end.

The little green man, the menace genie did not like it at all, what he was seeing, he was like holy cow, this is going to blow up in my little green face, well I don’t think so, he thought, but I must think quick because time is running out, and if April doesn’t want to go home within 31 days, the two Aprils will die. How dreadful he thought, and now he was really regretting his stupid idea to help this one April at the cost of the other, who by the way was in torcher living with her new parents. She even started to drink vodka to help deal with her new reality. It was very hard on that kid, but oh well, life can suck at times, we all know that, and what are you going to do, nothing that’s what.



The other Aprils new nightmare

She gets up happy as always, yet her head is hurting just a bit, she notices that her fluffy pillow is not fluffy at all, it is dull and lumpy. That’s odd April sais with her little frilly girly voice, I guess mom and dad will have to buy me a new pillow today is all, that will take care of this , she thinks to her self, and she smiles, its Saturday April thinks to her self, its family outing day , I wonder what mom and dad have in store for us today, April thinks, hmmmm, well if they ask me for a suggestion, I am going to say lets go to the zoo, and then lets go roller-skating, and she smiles so bright at that thought, April rushes down the stairs to the kitchen to greet her parents , but when she gets there, no one is downstairs, hmmm April thinks this is weird, it is almost 8:00am in the morning,

April runs upstairs to her parent’s bedroom, bust open the door and run threw it, jumps on their bed, and starts hugging both of them and smiling, momma and papa wake up sleepy heads, its morning.

Wilma, Wilma, the papa is screaming his wife’s name, what the heck is going on, is your daughter on drugs, he asks in a mean and viscous way. It hurts Aprils feelings, but she supposes that her dad is just playing a mean game with her is all.

Fred, this early in the morning, she is not my daughter, she is yours, April get the heck out of our room, what the hell is wrong with you , what is your problem, get out now . The moms voice is so unloving and she doesn't even seem to care that she is being really rude, and I guess like a inbred hillbilly. Thats how she sounds.
April has always done this and her parents were always happy for her company and always loved April and never ever were ever ever ever mean in any way, she was confused about their new personality traits.

Ok, I’ll leave, but I was just wondering what we are going to do today. Both Fred and Wilma just look at April, and they are speechless, they don’t know how to answer that question, April were we suppose to do something today Fred asks his new in his mind weird daughter? Well its Saturday, family day, isn’t it. Both Fred and Wilma just flip April the bird and April’s new dad picks up his daughter from his bed, and tosses her out the bedroom door into the hallway. Scat kid, and don’t bother me till noon, cause that is when I will probably wake up.


April is so upset that she starts to cry and runs straight to her bed room, their with her lumpy pillows, she remembers they were not lumpy before though, and then with her wet tears dripping down her sad face, she notices something.

Her bedroom is different then it was just a day before, the paint on the walls is chipped, and dull. The furniture is also different, why didn't she notice all this before, it is a completely different bedroom?

Her bedroom set was not new, but it was nice, She had a pretty metal bed, that looked like the old time antique ones, and she had pretty sheets and a pretty blanket, she had white draws for her close, and she had a white small vanity for her makeup.

This room had a ugly blue metal bed, that looked cheap, and she had a white set of draws, but they looked old and worn out, and she had a small white cheap desk that had her make up on it, kind of cute, but old and not in that good condition.

April feels very lost, and is feeling scared, am I loosing my mind she asks her self? Just then a little green genie appears, Hi April. April looks at the small man and smiles, Hi, who are you? she asks wrinkling her nose as she sais it.

I am your genie, and I am here to explain to you why I switched you here, and the other little girl, I switched to you old home. Why did you do that mean thing to mean sir?

Now the genie is feeling really shitty about what he did, he just graduated from genie school and was just wanting to do something good, but it is turning out to be something bad.

I thought the other little girl needed to see that the
