"It's your Mother's birthday! I thought you had a conscience to realize and called me to talk about your mother!" Gary was about to explode from anger.
What?
Monica was dumbstruck.
She had forgotten that today was her mother's birthday. To be exact, she had never taken serious note of it.
Gary was so infuriated, to say the least. "Come home for dinner tonight and spend time with your mother. She has been so worried about you lately!"
"Okay," Monica agreed.
Then, Gary abruptly hung up the phone.
Monica looked at the phone, wondering why the old man was so angry. He did not even know how to control himself, considering his heart was weak.
She adjusted her emotions and dialed Michael's number. "Michael, I just told my father about your cousin, and… there's nothing I can do."
"Okay, I got it. I'll inform my mom and tell her to reject them."
"I'm sorry."
"Silly, you're helping me. Why are you apologizing?"
