Mom, is Your Favorite Color Still Yellow?
March 12, 2010
Hey mom.
Oh, you don’t have time now.
Oh, you don’t have time to make dinner now.
Oh, you’re coming home late tonight.
Oh, it’s okay I have homework.
By any chance could you he-
Oh, well, I know. Mom. I KNOW.
I have to be independent and do my own homework
but-
I KNOW it’s because you’re in college
because you weren’t independent
because you relied on him
I’m sorry
just two small words to her
she hates them
okay mom
i wont apologize anymore
it’s just one question.
for homework.
but not to my mother.
