I barely remembered her birthday. The half that I look to to figuring me out. I was glad. I called her immediately. I loved morning calls, no matter how uncomfortable they were. Happy birthday! I said to amma with all the enthusiasm I could muster. I realized Mike was probably not going to be awake soon enough to wish her. I love you amma, I hope thats enough. Hes pretty normal, incase you are worried about whom you married your daughter off to. I am not sure who he is myself, but by all accounts, he is normal, or so I hear. Anyhow, hey you got a new phone, hey! I still can't hear a word you say. Is it the connection then? Yes, there is whatssap. No, I can't hear you properly over the new phone, so whatssaping calls is not going to help matters. Did I say I love you? Anyhow, yeah chechi and her weird big headed kids birthday is coming up. No way I am calling her up, but yeah whatever. I am not telling you that. I hope you are not lonely like I am amma. Oh amma, I am so lonely. Never mind. you probably went to the temple didn't you? Well, ok. I love you and you love me too and thats enough. Now I will listen. No, I can't hear what you say, but I will listen still. Did I say I love you? Ok, bye. Umma. God I miss every bit of warmth I ever had. Bye. Bye. Bye.
