Helpless

You sit on the stairs, listening in. You know you probably shouldn’t be but you can’t help it. You can’t help anything now. They’re overwhelmed and all you can do is sit here. You do your best not to complain. You don’t want them to worry about anything because more than likely, you can fix it yourself. You hear as they list off everything that has gone wrong and with every new thing is a new worry that fills your mind. So you sit there on the stairs feeling helpless as they discuss how everything is falling apart.
