A Mother and Daughter Bond Late in the Evening

It was late at night when Charlene came home. When she opened the door, she noticed that the lights were still on, which told her that someone was still awake - probably waiting for her. Before she could close the door again, her mom appeared from the kitchen, holding a glass of water. There you are, she said. What took you so long? I was starting to worry, you know. It's not like you to come home late. Charlene approached her mom and gave her a kiss on the cheek. She apologized saying, I am sorry, mom. I had to talk to a Derby caterer and then I got stuck in traffic on my way here. I wanted to call you earlier, but then I realized that I left my phone in my office drawer. Today is not my day, obviously. Her mom was sympathetic. She knew that her daughter must be very hungry and tired and so she volunteered to set the table for her. The two ended up talking until much later. Charlene has always been very close to her mom. She could not last a day without engaging in a conversation with her.
