I'm so happy for you darling. Jack's mother, over the past few months, had become kinder and even looked younger. She sat down on the tattered couch in the tiny living room of their tiny house. He was sitting at a small round table in the kitchen nearby.
Mum...I don't want to leave. His mother sat up from her sitting position.
Don't play with my emotions boy.
Mum, Ive met a girl. She rolled her eyes.
Not just any girl ma...I have this strong feeling she's the girl from my dreams.
Gosh Jack, not this nonsense again.
Ma hear me out. If she's the one then I'll be elated. I'll no longer be insanely unhappy.
Becasuse you love her? His mother scoffed. That's what your father told me. Her voice was bitter.
Mum, let me prove something to you okay.
