My mom wants to clean the whole house in 1 week?😭

Im so pissed right now. I (16F) live with my parents and they are obviously pretty messy. It hasn't always been this way but around 5 years ago it started. We never have friends or any other people over because it would be too embarrassing. I've never told anyone about this and it's also the main reason why I'm a little socially isolated, because whenever someone wants to come to my house I have to make dumb excuses and they think that I don't like them. So basically it is something that has upset me for years and I struggle very much with.

Fast forward to now, my aunt wants to come to our country next week and she's supposed to sleep here. I was very shocked when my mom told me about this and have been stressing out ever since.
My mom doesn't seem bothered at all though and has just been saying that she needs to clean the whole house now. HOW the fuck is that supposed to work.

For years and years she's been telling me how much stress she has and why she can't do anything (and I get that, I never judged her for this) and all of the sudden she wants to clean the house in ONE WEEK??? Like NOW? After 5 years of not even caring a single bit how much the mess bothered me, you can clean just because my aunt is coming? I've been crying for hours now because I'm so upset.
She's been telling me to help her and normally I would, but I just can't I'm so mad.

Honestly I will be even more mad it she actually gets it all cleaned in one week. Because what do you mean I've struggled with something for 5 years and you could've just get it fixed it in a week?

But also if she doesn't get it fixed, my aunt will have to come here anyway and it'll be so so embarrassing. She also only stays for 1 or 2 nights and then we'll go on vacation together, so I've thought about just booking a trip alone to Vienna for a few days so I don't have to witness all this😭

I don't even know what to do right now. Should I help my mom cleaning everything? Should I just go to Vienna? Should I stay even if we don't get everything cleaned up? Should I talk to my mom about it? What would you do?

Thank you for reading💗 and also sorry for my English I'm from Austria
