She sighed and smiled at me, one of those rare smiles, all soft

She sighed and smiled at me, one of those rare smiles, all soft and forgiving. "I raised a good daughter," she said, with an air of finality. She turned back to the sink, and was once more lost in her own world of picket fences and trimmed hedges and the color yellow and what the neighbors may or may not be doing with the other neighbors. My mother hid in her dreams the way I would hide if someone broke into my house. With held breathe and big eyes and every part of my soul praying that things we be okay. And who was I to come barging in, opening whatever cabinet or closet that hid her safely away? Because you can't tell your own mother that's she is wrong about her daughter.
Honestly, she didn't raise a good daughter.
She just raised a good liar.
