“Are you sure you really want to do this?”
My mother had called just after two on the second day we had been back. She went straight into a review about this amazing restaurant she had heard about. It took her about five minutes before she finally explained it was the perfect place for us to catch up.
I knew where it was going, but laughed internally about how I had only gotten out a single 'hi' so far.
It was a bit odd that I hadn’t spoken to her in… I think two months and the last time was mum calling me to just whinge about her life. I listened for a full five minutes before I said I had to go and would call her back.
I didn’t.
And I never intended to.
And as expected, she never called me back to follow up. She had only huffed when I said I needed to go and said something about me
