Chapter 3

“What are you writing?”

He yelped in surprise and grabbed the piece of paper off the table before crumpling and stuffing it inside the pocket of his jeans. He glared at his mom, Nancy, in irritation.

“Fuck. Mom. What the hell? It’s none of your business.”

“Language, young man.”

“I’m already thirty-two, for goodness sake.”

“I’m sixty-eight and I’m still your mother. What’s your point?”

He rolled his eyes. His mother was a sassy old woman. Not that he would ever say it out loud. She would murder him for calling her old, blood-relation or not.

“Mom, what are you doing here?”

“I happened to be in the area, shopping, and things of that nature. Can’t I come in and visit my darling son?”

“Cut the crap, Mom.”

“How rude. Anyway, your dad’s birthday is coming up soon.”

“I remember. It’s Wednesday next week. Any plans?” he asked in a more serious tone of voice.
