Faking happiness?
Went for a quick new year drink with bestie last night. "B, 5 o'clock." "What? 5 o'clock me or you?" "You." Took some time so as not to look so obvious. "5 o'clock. NOW!" Oh. So sad... A toddler squished in the middle of her parents, sitting numbly while both parents eyes fixed on the phone. The table was still empty. Oh I guess they are waiting for their food. Then comes the food. I turned around just in time to catch the mother taking a selfie with the daughter with the food. Oh. That is sooo fake. Taking a picture and smile smile smile... When in real life you actually IGNORED her! While paying at the counter, took a quick glance at the family. Mother eyes still fixed on the phone. Little girl eating or playing with fries. Daddy eyes fixed on the phone. Oh, please.
