“I better let my mother know so she doesn’t worry,” I told Lisa and went into the living room to give my mother a call.
“Hi Mom,” I spoke softly into the phone.
“Eric,” Mom replied.
“I’m not going to be home this weekend,” I informed her. “I’m spending the weekend with Lisa.”
“Do I know Lisa?” my mother asked.
“She was the girl I dated in high school. The girl I was supposed to go out with on Valentine’s Day.”
“Oh yes, I remember her. She was so sweet and petite,” Mom responded. “Treat her nice and remember everything your sister and I taught you.”
“I will. And Mom, thank you. I love you”
“I love you too, sweetie.”
The end.
