Bobby was dazed for a second after hearing Theresa’s first comment. Instead of questioning her, he just answered the way he always did when she asked him that. “Apple juice, please.”
Nervously, Theresa answered him. “Of course, hun, coming up.”
She reached up and opened the cabinet above the sink and as she reached, she stopped, corrected her aim, and grabbed a tall glass. As she closed the cabinet, Bobby saw what she initially reached for, a sippy cup. Instead of questioning the mistake, he felt sad she did not grab the cup. It was only after a second of thought that he asked his aunt a question.
“How come you still have all of those cups in the cabinet? Does Sarah still use them?”
