Charming Little Secrets

All my life, I've felt like I was running a pointless race. I never strived for anything mostly because I was comfortable with what I had and because I really didn't care. Mom really hates this part of me,hates the fact that I don't some lofty goals for the future. Sometimes, I wonder how much she wants from me.Like I already do everything she wants me to. Mothers are really demanding, hope I don't turn out like that . So when I told her about my plans to return Springfields with her instead of staying in the city, she was so happy that she made my favourite lasagna just to celebrate. "You know Rosie,I personally think you're headed in the right direction. Yes,you're finally taking control of your life and I couldn't be more proud."she praised me After dinner we booked plane tickets for two for the very next day. For the first time in a while, I felt like I connected with my mother when we were packing our suitcases. Mom even told me a few stories about her childhood in Springfields. It wasn't really groundbreaking but it was nice that she told me. I fell asleep on mom's bed and was really confused to wake the next morning to mom yelling my name and....uh something about running late. Oops! When it dawned on me that we were behind schedule, I shot up from the springy bed and dashed to the bathroom to take a quick shower. I dressed up in whatever mom had laid out for me and went to the kitchen for a very quick breakfast...well more like brunch. We shouldn't have stayed up so late but it is what it is.
