Jen quickly made the stir-fried beef and vegetables and served them up in plates. They both sat together at the table and ate as they talked. As they were finishing up their lunch, Lucas received a phone call from Hellen.
"Hi mom" Lucas greeted as he looked back at Jen who was staring inquisitively.
"Lucas, I thought you were moving today" Hellen went straight to the point. Lucas had completely forgotten about this matter. His gentle gaze turned to a frustrated one and Jen slightly tilted her head in question, but Lucas was not able to say anything at the moment.
"Oh well-"
"The movers are here, you told me it's today so I had the maids pack your things in boxes since Friday" Hellen continued.
"Um-"
"Did you change your mind perhaps?" She prodded. Lucas was silent for a few seconds in case his mother wanted to interrupt him again.
"I haven't changed my mind, I just forgot about it"
"Is Jen there? Give her the phone"
