"How is my brilliant graduate?"
Will laughs at his mother's beaming face as he enters the kitchen. It's only his first morning back at home, but it's as if he never left for college. Well, except for the wife in his bed now.
"Fantastic," he says, kissing Inez good morning before grabbing a cup of coffee.
"Where's Talia?"
"Sleeping. Where's Dad?"
"Work." Inez sits down with her son.
"How about I take my favorite girl out for lunch today?"
"What about Talia?"
"Not invited."
"Will..."
"Mom, I missed you. Can't I spend some time with you?"
She nods. "Okay, baby."
