MOM

My mom visited the week of graduation. She didn’t know I’d been in the hospital, and I made my roommates promise not to tell her.

“You’ve lost so much weight,” my mom said. “Are you eating?”

“I was busy studying for finals,” I lied.

Later, she asked Rachel and Elizabeth how I was.

“I didn’t know what to say,” Rachel told me.

“What did you say?”

“That you’re fine.”

“You hid that hospitalization from me for years,” my mom says. “Why didn’t you think you could tell me?”

“You were upset about Dad,” I remind her.

“But you could’ve told me,” she says. “I wish you’d told me.”
