“Mum, I’m leaving home!” I burst out.
“That’s fine darling” she said.
“Aren’t you so supposed to try and convince me to stay?” I pleaded.
“No. I think it’s the right thing to do”
“I don’t believe this” I screamed. “You don’t love me anymore”
“Of course I do” she replied, “But please stop calling me every 5 minutes with an update. You’re 47 for Christ sake”.
