Chapter 16 Make a wish

• I came home and didn’t find my mother at home, I put down the things I bought and looked up at the time, it was 8:00 in the evening, I picked my phone to call her since I know she wouldn’t be in the building, her car was not in the garage when I drove in.
• I called her and she picked me up. “Hello mom, you are not home.” I knew today was a weekend and she doesn’t go to work on weekends although I have only been with her for a week, plus I would love to see a movie with her this evening and have a wee chat with her.
• “Yes son, something came up in the office. I will be back later in the evening.” She said from the other side of the line and I could hear the clicking of her keyboard.
