Unwelcome Guests !!
Welcome, my family, to my second article in March! How do you find this month? Are things going as you planned? Well I hope so
You may have read the title of the article and were surprised! I mean, I know that we should not resent the guests, in my area they are considered as ablessing and the guest should be respected and honored, I know this, and I fulfill the guest's duty to the fullest. But let me tell you why I am so upset with the guests today.
Unwelcome guests to me are really two types. The first type is the one that comes without informing you in advance of its arrival. Yes, you hear the house bell ringing, and when you open you find one of your acquaintances standing at the door waiting for you to let him in. They just got bored and decided to visit you without warning, in the past that would have been acceptable but now there are a thousand ways to communicate and tell you want to visit, without coming all of a sudden
I mean, they didn't think about whether the time was right for you or what you're planning or how your current situation is. Perhaps the house is in an inappropriate situation to receive guests, or perhaps you do not feel that you want to receive someone, tired or busy, or there is work you want to do, or you are planning to go out, for example, or you just want to sit at home alone or with your family without outside members. They just don't think of all this and they surprise you with a visit!
The second type of unwanted guest is the one you tell him that you are tired, busy or sick, yet he does not understand the hint and insists on coming and visiting you. He plans to get out of the house and visit you, he cannot spoil his plans even if you are in a situation that does not allow you to have him, he remains insistent on coming.
The second type of annoying unwelcome guests is what I encountered today. Let me tell you before you judge me.
I don't like to share sad news with you, but in the past two days my mother was really tired and sick, she feels unwell and loses appetite with constant vomiting, she has gastroenteritis, so she does not accept food, and therefore feels weak and constant pain in the stomach,
Plus, after the exams, which lasted about 80 days, I began to suffer from back pain, well, this is the worst thing that happened to me. It limits my movement and makes me constantly need to lie down and rest with painkillers and anti-inflammatories. However, due to my mother's fatigue and illness, I compelled her to stay in bed and rest, and I would take care of all the household matters, from preparing food for my brothers, my father, and her. Cleaning the house and daily chores despite the pain I suffer from. Well, this is normal for now
But the problem is that after I finished all this, my back pain got worse, I took the medicine and wanted to take a nap to feel better, but a few minutes did not pass and when I started falling asleep, my mother woke me up. Well, I was surprised and upset, but what really made me angry was that she told me we were expecting guests and wanted me to have them.
Well I was really angry, I mean, she was sick. She couldn't eat or sit well and I was tired and I had back pain. She could have apologized to them or put them off to another suitable date, but she told me that she tried and told them that she was tired and sick but they insisted on coming. Well this is inappropriate, I mean that my mother is loving and kind, she did not want to tell them not to come directly and just told them that she was sick, but they ignored it and insisted on coming. Well I got really annoyed and labeled them as unwanted guests. I mean their house is not far away and they can come at any other convenient time but no.

Well, they already came and left about half hour ago, and I did not treat them inappropriately at all, I welcomed them and well done their hospitality, but this did not remove the feeling of resentment that I had, so I decided to write about it and share it with you, so that you may tell me something similar you went through with guests as well, and we make a little mockery of unwanted guests. Well I wait for your opinion in the comments, but now I will thank you for reading the article and I will go clean the house, do the dishes (the worst kind of housework) and go to sleep.
Waiting for your words .

Sorry about mom's health. Wishing her speedy recovery.... Just like what you Said in the beginning, no one drives away their guests but they can make you feel so uncomfortable sometimes. Especially the ones that comes to see when they heard that something bad has happened in the house, especially if they are looking for a new topic for gossip in guise of offering sympathy. Lol. They can be very annoying dear.
