Is that a new thing?” I don’t know if she meant it that way, but it felt sarcastic. “Yeah Mom, it’s a new thing. Don’t make a big deal out of it.” “I’m not making a big deal. It’s just seemed strange.” I turned around and looked at her. “I just thought I’d help Tollie—that’s all. It’s not a big deal.” When the bell on the toaster rang, I took out my muffin, buttered it and took my mug of coffee upstairs and heard mom shout at me, “I don’t like your tone.” I didn’t respond but hated what I was feeling. Mom and I hardly ever had fights. She was a really great mom and gave me a lot of space, but at that time, with Tollie’s friend Lark visiting—that was her name I found out later--I really liked that name—I didn’t want to talk to her about what was going on with me and Tollie ‘cause really nothing was going on except in my head.
