Thanks Antonia. I KNOW W is not the same person she was even 1 year ago. She did "flip" virtually overnight.

S16 is mad at me. W is coming to pick him up in 2 hours and we had the following conversation:

M: Is your mother still planning on getting you at 4:00?

S16: Yeah. Haven't heard otherwise.

M: Well I won't be here when she picks you up.

S16: Why not?

M: Because I don't want to be.

S16: Why?

M: Because I just end up being hurt when I see her. I'm going to keep my distance.

S16: That's stupid. You should be here.

M: Well, I'm not going to be.

S16: Just be here.

M: Not today.

S16: God. That's stupid!

M: Why what's wrong?

S16: Because now I'm going to get asked questions.

M: Why?

S16: Everytime you're gone or she knows you have plans, I get flooded with questions. I hate it.

M: What do you mean?

S16: Where's your dad? Where is he going? Where did he go? That's all I hear.

M: I doubt that.

S16: I hear it all the time.

That was pretty much the conversation. It surprised me that W has been asking questions. I really didn't think she even had any interest in me or what I've been up to. She'll really be curious after today. I'm pulling away and becoming mysterious....
