Mrs. Vayra looks at us both and says " stop looking like that you're not in trouble, I just want to have an honest conversation with you both." We sit side by side and look at Mrs. Vayra waiting for her to start since this is her show. I pray this won't be like the one with my parents yesterday.
Mrs. Varya looks at us both and starts by saying " I know you are both adults now, and are going off to college in less then 2 months." She stops to take a breath and her eyes are tearing up.
I want you both to know how proud of you I am, but I also want to impart some knowledge that I wish someone would have thought to tell me when I was your age and embarking on the same journey. I know that once you guys leave you'll be without somethings that you are used to, like me making breakfast in the morning, we all chuckle a little. However, you both need to know that if there is anything you need I'll always be a phone call away.
I look at Tish because she has always been the more emotional of us two, and she is tearing up just as I suspected. I give her a one arm hug to let her know I understand, and we continue to look at her mom.
Mrs. Vayra stares back at us an then says the most unexpected thing, and we both just stare mouth agape.
