She  laughed  and  gave her mom a strange  look  "Not what I meant,  I meant its been calling my  name for two days  now."  Shaking her head at her mom she went back to the movie "Jeeze mom dirty mind?" The young woman teased as she took another spoonful of the delightful ice cream. She didn't know what was running through her head but she remembered being a teen and  eating the ice cream without her mom and how her mom had pouted about not having her favourite ice cream in the house until April had gone to get more just for her, she chuckled to herself.<br/><br/>"I didn't think we needed a cry fest." she admitted about Bridget Jones' Diary, they had shed enough tears already in her mind why shed more? "Sure it counts for the fact that he's Prime Minister, doesn't give him the right to be a douche, you can be a leader and be kind." She disputed with a giggle, "Oh mom, you're not supposed to bump off your ex that way, you're doing it wrong."  Now it was April's turn to use the words wrong. She handed her mom a tissue (they always had some on the side table) and laughed about the Elton John  comment. For just a moment in time things felt normal again, the two of them nestled under a blanket eating ice cream watching movies and debating them as they went. Laughing, crying, hating the villan (of course).<br/><br/>"Oh my God mom are you okay?!" April yelped when Heather heaped onto the floor, noting that the breaks hadn't been on. "You've got to be more careful. The penguins can't save you from gravity! They're not super penguins!" She tried to make light of what could have been a serious situation. "Yes of course I'll help you up." She had rushed over when her mother fell and gently helped Heather into bed moving the chair close enough and turning on the brakes that way if she had to use the toilet in the middle of the night the same thing wouldn't happen again.<br/><br/>She smiled at the approval of the penguins, "Aren't they, got them on sale too. You'd be proud of my thriftiness." Watching her mom take off her pants was strange she had never thought of doing it that way, but yet again her legs worked just fine. "Of course that's what I'm here for." She helped the woman into her pj pants and lightly tied them in a bow. "Anything else before I go to bed?" She inquired, turning on the bedside lamp and handing her mother a book she had been reading in the hospital knowing Heather liked to read herself to sleep some nights. She also got her mom a glass of water and put it on the table not too close to the edge, but within arms reach. When Heather was all set up she kissed  Heather on the cheek. "Night mom sleep well."<br/><br/>Exhausted and seeing the light go out immediately she went to bed herself, changing into an over sized t-shirt that she used as a nightgown.<br/><br/>The next morning April woke earlier than usual so she could be ahead of her mom. Brushed her teeth, did her hair, but stayed in her pjs. It was Saturday, and she was going to request her mom's famous pancakes, just thinking about them made her drool. She walked towards Heather's room and peeked in to see if she was up. "You up mom?" She said softly not wanting to wake the woman if she wasn't. She still had to help her mom with physio and massaging her legs today, she had bought her mother's favourite scent of lotion at Bath and Body Works (as well as the matching soap and body spray), figuring the woman needed something to help her feel fresh and wonderful after all that had happened thus far, especially with the fall she took last night.
