A Nightmare
“After everything I’ve done for you, you have to rub this in my face?” It said. Joe was completely perplexed. As her biggest nightmare came true, Alina’s cheeks burned. “What are you talking about?” He inquired of his mother, but she did not react. He paused for a moment before texting her again, “Mom, is everything okay?” He didn’t realize it yet, but something about his photo bothered her.
Ignore Him
Joe continued checking his phone throughout the day, expecting for his mother to say something. Mari, unfortunately for Joe, was the kind to ignore people when she was furious. Alina was feeling sick to her stomach. She blamed herself for everything, and she was frightened of jeopardizing Joe’s relationship with his mother.
