Instead of telling the reader your mom was angry, they can hear it for themselves.

For example

“Andrew Tan,” mom bellowed, “Get in here this instant!”

Instead of stating"I feel so angry"

Try this - The more I thought about it, the madder I got, until finally I just sort of boiled over. “You treat the dog better than you treat me!” I yelled. Correcting my manners, making me do housework all the time. I am so sick of this, I rather be a dog in this household.
