Lunch break at the office provided a brief respite from the demands of the day. As I sat in my office, a mixture of nerves and determination fueled my decision to make a call that had been long overdue. I took a deep breath, pulled out my phone, and dialed my mother’s number.
The phone rang for what felt like an eternity before Mia’s chipper voice greeted me. “Evie, darling! How wonderful to hear from you.”
I bit my lip, steadying myself for the conversation ahead. “I’m ready to talk. Can we meet?”
Mia’s enthusiasm didn’t waver. “Of course, sweetheart! I’d love that. Where do you want to meet? My treat!”
I hesitated for a moment, considering the options. Then, a thought struck me. “Actually, why don’t you come to my office? I’m on my lunch break now.”
There was a pause on the other end of the line before Mia responded, “Your office? Oh, how exciting! I’d love to see where my successful daughter works.”
I could almost picture the smile on her face, and the skepticism in me grew. Nevertheless, I gave her the address and agreed to meet her at the office.
When Mia walked into the sleek lobby of the firm, she looked like she stepped out of a glossy magazine, her presence commanding attention. As she approached, I couldn’t ignore the sense of pride that flickered in her
eyes.
“Evie, darling, look at this place! I always knew you’d succeed in life.” Mia beamed, surveying the impressive surroundings.
I forced a smile, suppressing the questions that lingered in my mind. My mother had always been skilled at deflecting, turning the spotlight back onto me whenever I sought answers. I led her through the busy office, trying to gauge her reaction to the controlled chaos of a corporate environment.
We reached my office, a small sanctuary amid the hustle and bustle. Mia’s eyes widened as she stepped inside, taking in the minimalist decor and the view of the city beyond the glass walls.
“Wow, Evie, this is amazing! I’m so proud of you,” she exclaimed, her praise a balm to my conflicted emotions.
