Someone came by today.
I don't really remember who they said they were, but they were here to talk to Mom.
I tried to tell them she wasn't up for talking, but they insisted.
So I went and got her.
She didn't respond to me, so I went and tried to tell the lady.
The lady asked if she could talk to Mom.
I just kind of shrugged, and let her inside.
I know I shouldn't let strangers in the house, but she didn't look like someone who was about to mug us.
I showed her to Mom's room, and she went inside.
I didn't think I wanted to hear what was going to be said, so I just kind of waited in the living room.
She was in there for about ten minutes, before she finally came out. She looked a little disgruntled, and when she saw me she had the same look in her eyes that the people at school do.
She asked me if there was any family she could call.
I said there was you.
She looked surprised, and then the look everyone gave me came back but was more intense.
She asked if there was anyone else.
I said there was Aunt Clarisse.
She asked for her full name and number.
I gave it to her.
Then she handed me a card, and left.
I threw it away.
