A few days later my mother came back to visit and as planned I had a movie day planned out. Well there wasn’t so much planning as I only had to enter the tape in. I was more than excited with my mothers presence after so much time was lost.

We only settled in though after we had dinner together and it was hilarious how stiff Faye got around her. After being reassured that my mom actually liked her she did loosen up. When we finally did get back with the kitchen now finally full, after relentlessly pestering Faye for us to do some much needed grocery shopping, I grabbed a bag of popcorn I begged for for me and my mom.

Faye had a cute and sickenly face on as I passed her with it to go sit down with my mom. She was watching from over the couch and saw the face too, “What do you have against caramel popcorn? It’s not the worst thing in the world.”285Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡysoCDFPl4d

Faye chuckled at getting caught but her dislike for the item didn’t lessen, “Now I know who she got her taste buds from. I can handle regular popcorn but I don't like it to be dipped in caramel or however else they make it. I’d like caramel more with just apples.”285Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBDnfIo3x4L

“She’s just a despiser mom, don't mind her. But I will one day blindfold you and force you to try it.”285Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQQU8171R6T

“She hasn’t even tried it and is making assumptions?”285Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy2wnCrvuAL

I felt a pinch at the back of my neck and couldn’t stop my resurfacing smile, “He just texted me back that he’ll be in town next Wednesday and that he can’t wait to meet you. I can’t wait, I haven't seen him in so long. He’ll absolutely adore you just like I do, love,” She leaned down kissing me on the side of my mouth obviously only because my mom is right beside me. Otherwise I'd have tackled her to the floor to continue.

“Come sit down so I can start it,” I picked the remote up and unpaused at the place that really mattered. I was not going to listen to that long and unnecessary speech. Sure it was inspiring for some other people but it was hot out and all everyone wanted was for it to be over. Of course the people on the platform were fine with their fans keeping them cool.

I winced seeing my face. I looked mad only because of the guy behind me. And then after that I was fine, well at least I think so, “I sort of tripped there but that wasn’t my fault since the platform was a little higher than I expected. Oh! And the dude behind me smelled like straight, excuse my french, donkey shit. It was horrible sitting and waiting next to him. I literally shuffled as close as I could to the girl in front of me but that didn’t help not one bit.”285Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVMkRlDS0Zf

They both laughed but I was dead serious as it was excruciatingly horrible for me, “You look so beautiful though.”285Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwttNJDBRJo

“You can thank Cherry for that when you meet her. And you’ll absolutely treasure her too like I do. I was never one for makeup and she did me a huge favor that day.”

“Other than having to deal with the smell, were you excited?”285Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhK7xIa6iBS

“Most definitely. All my hard work paid off and I was tremendously happy,” I watched my past self walk the stage and a faint but still loud yell from Cherry reemerged in my memory. I remembered Aunt shouted too but it was more indistinct than Cherry’s. They were the only two I had there and it was more than enough.

Reengaging now, we were at the part where we shook hands with the dean and posed for a picture. However, looking back, there were a couple things to note about the business dean that presented. He was a bit touchy touchy and even more so after he came out as gay but he never had a partner which was suspicious. I was about to tell the two that and looked over to my mom first and found her tearing up. She did so quietly and I hadn't even noticed, “What’s wrong?”285Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgHHYOx6Smn

“You just look so happy. I’m glad your upbringing didn’t affect you. Half the reason why your father is a raging lunatic is because of his abusive relationship with his own parents. And there he was doing the same thing with you. I do have his sister to thank for stepping up for the both of us and you turned out to be a formidable woman Cleo. And that makes me so happy.”

“Well we are fine now so don’t even think about that anymore mom,” And we were I have nothing against her as there's no reason to. I can see her trying and that's all I ask for. I only hold resentment for my dad and thankfully he is not a factor anymore. This never ending story looks to have an end and we’re almost there285Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwFKjlPBNYV
