\u201cIs there a seltzer?\u201d \u201cAny specific flavor?\u201d \u201cWhatever looks good.\u201d I grab one that looks to be the most popular flavor since it\u2019s the last one left, then grab a Corona for myself. And that only makes me think of Miller, so I grab her one too. It\u2019s the least I could do for her being welcoming to my boss. I hand Reese the cold can, lacing the necks of the two beer bottles between my fingers, and by the time I\u2019ve got the cooler closed, we\u2019ve made it to the front of the table.<\/p>\n

Reese grabs a paper plate from the stack, but when she also tries to snag all the different disposable utensils, she fumbles a bit with her seltzer. \u201cI got you.\u201d I grab all the needed utensils for both of us, including a stack of napkins. Then I take her plate, exchanging it for the beers in my hand.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou just tell me what looks good when we pass it.\u201d She gives me this look, as if silently telling me that my making her a plate for dinner looks a bit odd. A bit questionable. Possibly inappropriate. But I ignore it. I situate a second plate in one hand, including the forks, knives, and napkins, using my free hand to serve us both food.<\/p>\n

Anytime we pass a dish that looks remotely like one that Reese described bringing, I ask for confirmation if it is. When she points out the three that are hers, I make sure to add a healthy serving of each on my plate. Our plates are full by the time we reach the last table where the desserts are displayed. \u201cOh shoot,\u201d she says. \u201cWe can come back for this.\u201d Reese lifts a brow in my direction. \u201cI mean you can come back for this.<\/p>\n

Alone. By yourself.\u201d She laughs under her breath, slowly walking away from the table of sweets. And that pure look of disappointment that she doesn\u2019t have enough room on her plate for dessert is just another thing I like about the woman. \u201cOkay.\u201d Using one of the plastic forks, I push all the food on my plate together, mixing the flavors in a way they probably shouldn\u2019t be.<\/p>\n

I don\u2019t often write amazing mothers in my books, and I suppose that\u2019s because I knew that even a great fictional mother could never compare to how incredible mine was. I\u2019m so lucky to have had her for the years I did. I love you and I miss you, Mom.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
