I watch the blurry trees go past me until she slows down the car at the stoplight.
"Hey, mom." I call out still getting used to calling her mom. "How was I like before?"
"What do you mean hon'?" She asks hitting the gas pedal once again.
"Was I... Happy?"
"I hoped so. You were always a strong child. Ever since the divorce I've noticed your bright smile wavering and getting dimmer and dimmer. Some nights you would just lock yourself in your room, it was my fault." Her voice cracks. "I'm your mother and I should be the one helping you get on your feet not the other way around. You even took care of Jared on my dark days. This is long over due but, thank you Avery.
I keep watching the blotches of green go by. "I love you." I blurt out.
She glances at me surprised. "I love you more."
Sorry! I know it's short but it's better than nothing ;) Hope you guys liked it!! Love you guys <3
