heart sank further with each passing car. this was a day id looked forward to for weeks: miss paces fourth-grade, end-of-the-year party. i had happily volunteered my mother when miss pace looked for cookie volunteers. moms chocolate chips were well-known, and i knew theyd be a hit with my classmates. but two oclock passed, and there was no sign of her. most of the other mothers had already come and gone, dropping off their sweet offerings. the three oclock bell soon took me away from my thoughts and i took my book bag from my desk. i decided i would slam the front door, and refuse to return her hug. but when i arrived, she wasnt at home. i was lying face-down on my bed upstairs when i heard her come through the front door. “robbie,” she called out a bit urgently. “where are you?” i could then hear her rushing anxiously from room to room, wondering where i could be. i remained silent. coming through the door, she said: “im so sorry, honey,” she said. “i just forgot. i got busy and forgot.” then my mother did something completely unexpected. she began to laugh! how could she laugh at a time like this? i rolled over and faced her, ready to let her see my rage (愤怒). but my mother wasnt laughing at all. she was crying. “im so sorry,” she said. “i let you down. i let my little boy down.” i was moved by her tears. i tried to remember her kind words from times past when id skinned knees or cut myself, times when she knew just the right thing to say. “its okay, mom. we didnt even need those cookies. there was plenty of stuff to eat. dont cry. its all right. really.” we didnt say another word. we just held each other. when we came to the point where i would usually pull away, i decided that, this time, i could hold on, perhaps, just a little bit longer. 64. the author was
