"Who the hell is it?"

"The temper is still so stubborn, it's me!"

"Mom, why are you here?"

"What? Can't you come?"

"How could it be! It's just a little surprised, you came alone?"

"Your dad is looking for a parking space downstairs."

"What's going on at the dining table? There's still a strange smell, why don't you know how to take care of yourself?"

Watching my mother pick up the dishes on the dining table and dump them into the kitchen waste bin, I don't know why there is an inexplicable pain in my heart.

"Why are you still standing there in a daze, why don't you come to help." Mom's voice was stern, "Okay, okay." "Just say the answer once, not so many times."

When the table was almost cleared away, the doorbell just rang...

"It should be your dad, hurry up and open the door." The person who rang the doorbell turned out to be dad. "Dad, you are here too." "Yeah, let's see how my son is doing."

It was a rare time for our family to get together, and my mother suggested going to a restaurant outside for dinner. Dad also thought it was a good idea, so he didn't have any intention of vetoing it.

"Xiao Mo, move back home when you are in your senior year."

"Dad, why did you say this so suddenly, besides, I'm living a good life now."

"How dare you say it, and don't think about the confiscated dishes on the table."

"This... can you not discuss this matter for now? I am just about to enter my sophomore year, so don't keep discussing things after this."

After dinner, it was already eight or nine o'clock in the evening. I wanted to take my parents around for a while, but they said that they would not stay any longer because they had to go to work tomorrow. After all, they came to see me today, it seems that it was my mother's temporary intention , and Dad just acted as a driver.I told them that if they are really tired, it is better to stay with me for one night before walking, after all, driving while tired is dangerous, but in the end they declined.

I don’t know if it was Mom’s intention, or I was too caring, because Mom kept urging Dad to drive over quickly. When the door closed with a “click”, Mom’s eyes seemed to be different from before...

"Son, tell me, is there anyone you like now?"

When I hear such a sensitive question, I always lie about it, no matter who asks me this kind of question, even if the other party is a parent.

"No, Mom, why do you ask that?" Her eyes seemed to tell me that she didn't believe it at all, and she continued, "Didn't everyone say that after going to college, they will have a girlfriend or something? Why didn't you see something you liked?"

"Mom, things like feelings will come when they should. Now I just do my part." Although I lied firmly, my heart was unavoidably shaken.

And Dad's phone call is like my rescue, when Mom is about to continue asking questions, I put down the phone and tell Mom that Dad's car is waiting for her downstairs, and she doesn't continue to ask.

Before getting in the car, my mother told me one last sentence: "If you have any difficulties in your heart, just tell mom, no matter what, mom will stand by your side." This sentence sounds really warm to me now. , but I still told her "I'm fine, don't worry about it."

Perhaps no matter how old we are, in the eyes of our parents, we will always be children who will never grow up...

I watched my parents off until I could no longer see the car, then went upstairs...

It's just that I still silently repented of my behavior in my heart, "I'm sorry, I didn't intend to deceive you, but I don't want you to worry about this."
