Chapter 4: Not only girlfriends get hoodies
I laid on his sofa. Face down, trying to forget about the things I heard last night.
When I was ten my mom lost her job. At first it wasn’t a problem. Dad had inherited enough money from his parents to replace her loan for the next 10 years. Of course we didn’t plan on using the money that way but it was a solution until she found a new job.
The years passed and my mother stayed a stay-at-home mum. When we sat together she always told us how difficult it would be to find a job but she was happy to spend more time with us. As I grew older I understood what was really going on. My mum didn’t even tried to find a new job and the excuse that it was for the kids would have worked if she would have been there for us more. What she wasn’t.
