Me *spluttering defensively: Where did you see that?
Him: It doesn’t matter does it? Fact is, I saw it.
Me *squirming uncomfortably: Yes, but- but- I didn’t write about anything you actually said…
Him *staring at me firmly: True, you didn’t.
Me *blushing guiltily, awaiting my punishment.
Him *after a VERY long pause: It was funny actually. Your writing was good. I enjoyed it. Well done Mum.

The only teen that I have left, has not left (though I suspect she’d love to – and who could blame her – NOT I!!) Yesterday morning I went in her room to chat to her and there was a brown banana on top of some cds, which were on some dvds, which were on the windowsill. I also noticed an empty bottle of vodka and a collection of crockery. It’s like one of those quiz shows where you have to memorise shit… π
Ps. I was a similarly gross teenager, but like her…a good soul. I ignored everything but the banana. That HAD to be pointed out.

Kinda. Smart yes. Ruthlessly in charge of his own life to the exclusion of supporting me sometimes? Yes too!

He sounds rather mature for his age, and kind, which is certainly a good thing.
