I followed Jace's lead as he set the table.
It reminded me of a sweeter time
Me, mom, dad. Not perfect, but....it was family, my family
I tried to block it out
But I miss her so much, I miss my mom
The funeral was only a few weeks ago, so.....
I brushed it off, I didn't want to think about it. I just want to hang out with my best friend and
Forget for a while
We finished setting the table, it didn't take long since there's only three of us
Jace called his mom back into the room and she shared out our food
Dinner was normal, light small talk with some uncomfortable mentions of my mom and not so subtle jabs at Jace.
I've never understood Jace's relationship with his mom, but I'd rather not bud into anyone else's business
It's an uncomfortable topic for him so I'd rather not push it
We finished up and washed our plates even though Ms. Clark insisted that we'd leave it to her
Now we're upstairs, debating on what to do.
*God these are so short lmao*
