I had worked late the night before, so was just barely awake when I heard the clatter of dishes in the kitchen at about 9 am Oh shit! It's Mother's Day! I had promised myself I would get up and make breakfast, but I had ended up working until 4 am. Shit!
She was furious, so I threw my clothes on quickly and slunk downstairs as quietly as I could. My brother was in the front room looking worried so I went in there and mouthed "Mother's Day." He ran upstairs to his room just as she came around the corner and bellowed, "Can't anybody even say, 'Happy Mother's Day?'
My brother came downstairs and handed her a card from the dollar store and ran out the door.
I don't remember the rest.
