The deadman's tale

The Lamp post

"Dad" I mumbled. My mom's head shot up and she is looking me with wide eyes.

"Mom" I called softly, "Why did you came here in the middle of the night?"

"O....Ol...Olivia" my mom stuttered "Wha..what are you doing here? Why di...did you came here? You should be sleeping in your room"she said.

Is she for real?

"So you are" I said.

"Mom, don't you dare dodge my questions, I heard some weird sounds and woke up,I came tp check on you and you came all the way here not listening me, where I was shouting my lungs out" I'm becoming impatient.

"NOW,answer me" I asked with authoritative voice.

I know that I should be soft to my mom but her actions are pushing me to an edge and I feel like I can't stand this whirling storm of emotions. I don't want to loose the one and only person I care about and that care about me.

She flinched at my voice but stared blankly into the dark.

"ANSWER NOW" I growled.

She started crying saying she's sorry. I felt immediate pang of guilt for shouting at her.

"Mom, look I'm sorry for shouting at you, I didn't mean to get angry at you, I was just....you know..." I trailed off.

"I know Oli, I know, I'm sorry for running out like that, I know baby that you care about me, but...but I'm ashamed because that should be exact reverse how it has to be...I should take care about you" she said while sobbing.

"Mom, look....."she cut me off and continued.

"I was just thinking about your father and came here without another thought" she spaced out again.

Then it hit me and I asked her the 1st question that is lingering in my mind.

"Mom, why did you came here if you think about him? Of all places why here? I asked.

"What are you saying, I was just....." she trailed thinking how to answer me.

"Mom, I know that you didn't stop randomly at side walk and crying hugging a damn lamp post. I know that there is something you are keeping from me...that there is something you are not telling me" I asked just to see her reaction if I'm correct or not.

"No there's nothing......" she stopped what she's gonna say when she saw me giving a pointed look towards her...you know that 'you can't escape from me and I won't leave it till you say it' look.

"There is no point in hiding now, she has to know now or sometime" she mumbled to herself very low. But I caught it.

"See Oli, this is the place where......"she started saying.......
