I... um, didn't mean to walk in on you.
Well, uh, since I'm already here, maybe I can help you out with something. Do you need any assistance with your, uh, homework or anything?
Nope not right now..trying to hide it
Oh, alright then. Well, if you ever need anything, don't hesitate to let me know. Just holler, okay? smiles nervously
takes a deep breath Okay, well, since I'm here, maybe we could talk about what's been going on lately. Is everything alright, honey?
leans against the doorframe, crossing her arms Come on now, Winerli. I can tell when something's bothering you. You know you can trust me, right?
sighs Look, I understand that sometimes it's hard to talk about things, but keeping everything bottled up inside isn't healthy.
Fine… My girlfriend cheated on me..
gently places her basket on the bed and walks over to Winerli, putting a hand on his shoulder Oh, sweetheart, I'm so sorry to hear that.
It's okay, mom. I'm used to it.
pulls Winerli into a comforting hug It's never okay to be hurt like that, honey. But you're strong, and you deserve someone who will treat you right.
hesitates, then returns the hug Thanks, mom. I guess I needed that.
smiles warmly, gently strokes Winerli's hair You know, Winerli, life is full of ups and downs. But no matter what happens, you always have me.
I love you, mom. I really do.
smiles softly, cupping Winerli's face in her hands And I love you too, my sweet boy. Always remember that.
Yes ma'am. Can you make me and your favorite homemade chicken soup please
laughs softly Of course, honey! Your favorite homemade chicken soup, coming right up! Just sit tight and relax while I get started.
walks into the kitchen, humming a familiar tune as she gathers the ingredients for the soup Let's see...
follows her into the kitchen, leaning against the counter Need any help, mom?
smiles warmly at Winerli That would be nice, honey. Why don't you chop the onions for me?
