Scared to get sick

I'm not scare to take pills or go thru a long wait to see the doctor.
I just feel like I can't get sick. Because once I do, that's when things start acting up in the house.
My dad would be even MORE caring ( I don't mind) but its just that it makes me uncomfortable knowing that my stepmom is around. Because I feel like her glare is gonna burn a hole thru my dad's head. On the second day of me getting sick after my dad left for work she says "sigh, seriously, different people born at different times" (trying to translate what ever she said from cantonese). So yeah..like she already told me how she feels about my dad's treatment toward me in comparison to her or my little brother. Its just that when my little sister and I get sick, she barely ask how we're doing, or make things especially for us. Like I didn't feel like eating for two days in a row, dad made me pumpkin congee. My stepmom would have never done it for me. Or feel my head to make sure I didn't get a fever, like my dad does every morning. Its just different. I don't know...my bro got my mom to pamper over him, so I don't know why does she want both her and my dad to like watch over him. I mean for god sake I watch over my little brother, always constantly asking him how he's doing. So whats the big deal. Maybe my dad is just too use to one side parenting. I don't know. It just feels so awkward that I know how my stepmom feels and don't know how to handle the situation. Even my dad knows that my stepmom is jealous. So how come he's not doing anything? Like everyone knows what each other is thinking, yet nothing is done to solve it.

I'm running out of ideas and strength to continue holding the family together. Its too much for a 20 year old to do it. I already feel like 30.

Sometimes I wonder is it too much to ask for some peace and quiet. Its hard enough that I have to listen to this. Sometimes I talk back so things will end fast. I really don't need outside people to hear how messed up my family is.

I Hate Mother's Day.

This is what I wrote to a fellow classmate, but I realize that I got my answer as I was trying to get an advice from her.
Hey [Insert Name],
I have a question. Just a personal dilemma sort of thing.
I hate Mother's Day. I'm sure you know why.
So every year it falls on the date where I unofficially see my biological mother. For all these years I never had any problem with that. Until recently my stepmom starts showing signs of jealously. So this week like every year I would say 'hey lets grab dinner this Saturday, okay'? This year she gave me, 'well its been like this for 10 years already, why wouldn't it be okay'. At that point I felt guilty. So I like e-mail my biological mother if its okay to spend Mother's Day a day earlier. I told her why and everything. After I send it I feel like I did it wrong. Like I should have done it next year instead. And now I feel guilty.

Like I don't know. I tell people I don't have a mom. My stemom gets jealous when my dad treats us a little better, like buying us clothing or offering things to my little sister and I. My biological mom, I feel like i'm intruding in her life. Like she want to be with us because she doesn't want us to hate her because of what she did. When I'm with my mom I feel like I just want to hug her.
...[END]

After I typed that part, I started to cry.
Now that I think about it, why do I have to cry over a simple situation
I just have to start to take turns in spending Mother's day with every year now. Its only fair to both. A simple plan and I couldn't think of it after I wrote that letter that I plan not to send. I always figure out things AFTER I cry. A create way to solve every personal problem.

Fuck me.

Mother's Day - its no longer about presents but who I spend it with.

Every year its a struggle when it comes to Holidays. Mother's Day is the worst.
Because my stepmom doesn't like it when I spend it with my biological mother.
Even though I said lets celebrate it early, from her tone she wants to spend it ON mother's day.
And mother's day is always the date I see my biological mother.
I seriously don't know why she can't see that we treat her way better than we do with our OWN mother. With my stepmom we treat her to dinner, and gifts. With my biological mom we eat dinner with her, but she would never let us pay and she's hard to buy gifts for when she can pretty much afford anything she wants.

I feel guilty for not disappointing my stepmom, but why can't people understand that I have three lifes. I have my dad's, my biological mom and my stepmom to please. Give me a break. All the official holidays I spend it with my father and stepmom, its only Mother's day I spend it with own Mother.

Can't being a child with split parents.
