arrrgh...

"blah...my daughter...getting married next year...saving 
money...blah...we're not young anymore... they grow 
up so fast...blah blah blah... "

she lowered the cup from her lips, blinked, paused.
"so, how?" she turned her head slightly and looked
at me from the corner of her eye.

me, head cocked to one side, mock puzzled look on
face. behind my eyes, flame throwers poised to fire.

"not getting married ah?" sits cup on table mid sentence
and turns to face me straight on.

"what do you think?" i hissed, eyebrows raised. i leaned
forward, noses almost touching, swiped her face with my
ponytail and walked off. leaving her with the bill.
