oh no! my mother arrives, the first words she says are some derogatory remark, i keep silent, let it sit, then she starts to tell everyone about how wonderful martin is, and how similar jake and him are, we sit around a dinner table as she dominates the discussion, ironically it's about madness. she talks about good parents, and claims she was a good parent. i feel like saying something, 'perhaps the children should judge that.' however i remain silent.
already i feel like i am suffocating, thankfully martin and jake are here to distract me.
