Susan immediately looked stern. "What kind of work matters more than your mom's health?"

"I got it, Mom."

Susan sighed and said, "Bring your mom over when you have time. I have something to discuss with her." There was guilt in her eyes when she said this, perhaps still thinking about things that happened decades ago.
