"How come you ended up back at Fucla Residential Area last night?" Cole Duncan mumbled, desperately searching for something to start a conversation. He was terrified of the silent treatment that Daisy Willow was giving him.
"Hmm, your mother told me not to come back." Daisy Willow answered truthfully, her voice impassive.
In the past, whenever she entered his room, she would always first ask if he needed anything - helping him use the bathroom, fetching a basin of water to wash him, or serving one of his three daily meals.
Today, Daisy Willow seemed indifferent towards him, didn't inquire about his needs, and for the first time in their marriage, referred to his mother as 'your mom.'
That meant she was no longer considering his mother as her own.
