The Sugar Daddy
"Arthur, your mom's working another night shift at the factory tonight. I made chicken soup for her. Bring it to her at work tomorrow, okay? She's had it so hard."
Looking at Dad's hands, which were little more than skin and bone after everything illness had put him through, my eyes stung, and I nearly burst into tears.
"Dad, that's not necessary. Mom eats pretty well at work," I lied, forcing myself to suppress my guilt.
"How can that be? Your mother's always trying to save money. She lives on bread and pickles. She left in such a hurry today that she carried my phone. Bring that to her tomorrow too."
