"Hope you slept alright?"
I finally shifted my eyes from my book and faced my mom before blinking.
"Yeah" I turned to the next page of my book. "Yeah I did," I added. I was all curled up on the chair reading one of my novels I brought along, with Hayden's headset on my ear but I kept it on a low volume because my mom kept talking.
"Sure?"
I nodded.
"Sorry I wasn't here," she said, taking a seat on the bed. "Oh, you changed the sheets? I know the other one was much white, this one is creamier"
Trust my mom to notice every detail "Yeah I did" I gripped my book tightly. "I-I spilled soda on it"
"Oh someone must have been watching Netflix all night,"
I forced a smile.
"Must have been super fun"
"Yes, it was" I exhaled sharply feeling suddenly hot as I recalled the 'Fun' I had.
