What happens when you call your Mom's cell and your dad picks up - (No)NaBloPoMo Day 18

Pop with Mom in background this
summer getting ready to leave for a bike ride.
In the middle of a conversation with Pop, he says he has to go. He and mom have lunch plans. I hear Mom in the background yelling to hurry up.

Dad abruptly says goodbye. He's irritated, I can tell. He's half way through a good story and now the last part will have to wait. The ending will be ruined when he has to rehash the whole thing next time we talk.

In my imagination, I see my pop press the button to hang up.

Then he walks out to the car and gives my mother her cell phone back. She tucks the phone in her handbag.


They drive off.
