Tamara.
I'm about closing from work on a calm Friday evening when my phone beeped with a text.
It was from Hilda, my aunt and my mom's only living family.
“Please come see your mom when you can Tammy, she misses you, I do too.”
My chest tightens as I read through her message. I have not been able to visit my mother in a really long time, just regular check up through phone calls and it has my heart in fierce guilt.
It was intentional, I was avoiding my own mother and I feel awful about it. She's my entire world but I sometimes can't turn off my emotions every time she brings Killian up.
I know she has no knowledge of what's been going on but I figured avoiding those questions was the best thing to do.
And now her birthday is in five days and I'm at lost on what to do.
