she 'd come to this party for one reason . he told me he was in town dealing antiques . but since i do not know how to drive , i choose to join in and have weird fun . my mother has the audacity to laugh . i wanted to experience this moment before he told me the truth and i had to leave . you laughed at him , and you know that only encourages him to be silly . it was a reminder to him never to get too comfortable .
