"Mom, I love you so much!" I say as I lean in to hug her. "But how are you paying for this?" My mom and I have been low on money ever since my dad left us. "Well...... There's a catch. Sweetie I'm sorry in advance." Oh god. What did this mean. Last time she said there was a catch I ended up sleeping in the back of a car for 3 days. "I knew that there would be a catch. There is always is when something good happens. What's the catch?" I turned my phone off because Simons broadcast finally ended. "Sweetie, before you say anything, let me finish talking." I nodded my head in response. "Your father is going to take you while I go on my business trip. But it's ok. He's paying for it. And I'll just be in the hotel. My work is having a meeting down here. I figured while you're at Impact, I can do the meeting. I know how you feel about your father. Just be nice to him the few hours you are with him. Ok now I'm done." I had no clue what to say to that. She knows how I feel about him. "Ok. It's only a few hours and I'll be with the guys most of the time. I'll be good. Now let's go get some sleep." My mom and I walked into the hotel. She checked us in while I was connecting to the wifi. We walked upstairs and sat down. I just laid there for a while trying to decided if tomorrow was going to be a good day or a bad day. Without saying good night, I fell asleep.
