Judith had a long day at work. She reached home
exhausted, frazzled and totally hollow eyed with the intention to hit the sack.
Her daughter greeted her at the doorway and
reminded her of the promise to mend her costume for tomorrow’s dress rehearsal.
Judith’s heart sank on seeing the hope in her
daughter’s eyes.
She nodded but had resentment as she plunged on
the couch next to her daughter who was watching TV and laughing in delight
while she was forcing her eyes wide that had been open since the crack of dawn
to sew together her apparel.
