The Preachers Daughter


Thato and her family are watching tv and chatting.There's a knock by the door, they answer to let the person in. It's their mother's twin sister, their Aunt. Aunt Mary, she's ready pissed and yelling at everybody.
Aunt Mary:Thato and Junior!? I am very dissapointed in you two, how do you let this happen? I told you to bring my sister I will take care of her, what did you say Thato?
Thato:(clears throat) I told you I will take care if her and Dad.
Aunt Mary:Did you?
Thato:Aunty, we are all in pain, it's nobody's fault that mom died, we all did what we can to keep her safe.
Aunt Mary:And what are you wearing young girl? It's your mother's funeral and you are here wearing trousers like men, are you Ohk?

Aunt Mary is known to be dramatic and loud. She knows how to piss everybody off and get away with it. She has always been against Thato's sexuality, she never approved of it because it's evil according to her .

Junior:(picks aunt's things)I will take this to the guest room.
Aunt Mary:Ohk good...that's my boy(smiling)you know how much aunty had missed you? Look how clean and cute you are.(looks at Thato)And you, how are the funeral preparations going?

Dad is on his wheelchair, cool and calm as ever. Him and Aunt Mary don't see eye to eye at all. But for his wife's funeral he was willing to let bygones b's bygones.
Dad:Hey to you too Mary. How are the kids back at home?
Aunt Mary:(with an attitude) they are good. And you?
Dad:As you can see, we are all fine Mary.
Aunt Mary: Thato, how the funeral plans going? Is everything going accordingly?
Dad:Yes, everything's fine, no problems at all. (With a smile)

Junior comes back from the guest room and joins everybody. Brandon is chilling in his and Junior room now, playing video games.

Thato:When are our cousins coming?
Aunt Mary:They will be here Friday, you know your cousins are old now, they are very busy. They don't even have time for me anymore. Kids now a days.
