"ethan?" my mom raps a knuckle on my door.
"come in," i say drowsily.
she enters my room and sits next to me on my bed.
"hey," she smiles a thin lipped smile.
"hi?"
"so quick question. really fast."
"yes?"
"you and riley?"
"oh," i laugh, "yeah."
"you didn't tell me?"
"you didn't ask,"
"i'm sorry," she frowns, picking at my bedspread, "how long?"
"2 weeks."
"so not long?"
"no," i say, almost defensively, "but we've had feelings since the beginning."
she nods and takes a deep breath.
"i'm concerned."
"why?"
"you're not... you. does that make sense?"
"mom," i say, starting soft, "the only reason i'm not acting like myself anymore is for a good reason. riley brings out the best in me."
"riley seems like a very nice girl," she smiles slightly
"she is. dad would've loved her."
my mom cocks her head to the side and gives me a stare only moms can.
"i love you, ethan."
"i love you too mom."
