Steamy Dreams
I saw my mom entering the house again.
"I forgot my keys," she said.
We both just smiled at her, and my friend's mom asked, "Is it okay if I take him to my home?"
My mom replied, "Yeah, sure. He will feel better in his friend's company."
They both exchanged smiles. My mom then gave me instructions and left. My friend's mom, with her eyes closed and her hand on her chest, breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That was close." She turned to me, smiling, held my hand, and said, "Let's go."
