D
My parents and I lived a happy and comfortable life. But everything has changed since my dad passed away. My mum began to be busy with her work all day long. She seldom had time to be with me. I had to go to a day care centre every day after school waiting for Mum's work to be done.
One day, at dinner time, I begged, “Mum, can we go to the cinema this Sunday?”
“Lilly, you know I have to work on Sunday,” Mum told me.
“Yes, I know... But it's for a long time that we haven't seen a film together! Can't you take Sunday off?” I asked.
“I'll try,” she said.
Then early on Sunday morning, I found she was making pancakes and coffee in the kitchen with her work clothes on.
“Mum, why are you in your work clothes?” I asked. Mum put her hand on my shoulder and said, “Sorry, Lilly! I have to go to work today.”
I felt that was the longest Sunday I had ever had. When Mum finally returned home, she said, “I'm so sorry for leaving you alone at home, Lilly.” “Yeah, you're always at work. Sometimes I think you like work more than me,” I said.
“No!” Mum gave me a hug so tight that it was hard for me to breathe. “I love you so much, Lilly! But we're having a tough time. I work longer hours only to make money for a living. I keep thinking about what you said today, and you're right, because we haven't spent enough time together recently. But now I've decided not to work on Sundays any more, so how about going to the cinema next Sunday?”
