The New CEO

“Don’t worry. I’ll be fine living alone. I have good friends in this neighborhood, so you have nothing to worry about. Get a nice new place close to the office so you don’t have to waste time and money commuting,” my mother said before I could explain anything.

“Thank you, Mother,” I thanked her wholeheartedly.

“Don’t thank me. Thank all the efforts that you put into landing this job. Don’t worry about me, and just focus on your career,” my mother said encouragingly.

“I’ll come back to visit, or you can come visit me,” I said with a smile.

“Sure, I’ll do that. Don’t go to bed too late,” she said before she returned my smile.

“I know. Good night, Mo,” I wished her goodnight.

My mother had to start work early tomorrow, and I knew she needed to go to bed early. I wished her goodnight with a smile. I was always so thankful for how understanding she was. Once I’ve settled into my new life, I’ll take care of her better.
