the one with the controlling mother

I had dinner over at the 'in-laws' last night. His sis and mum are back in town. To W's family, I'm still his girlfriend because they don't know what is going on between us. Needless to say, it's none of their business really.

So his mum and I were sitting down having a chat. She complained how W and his bro never call her since she came over. She lamented how W is being an ungrateful child wanting to move out from her house. Her exact words were, "Now that the dad is gone, he's trying to push all his responsibilities to his older bro and he doesn't want to take care of me. Fine if he wants to do that. He will not get a single cent out of my will". I was thinking what exactly are her problems? Knowing W being the person that he has always been, I don't think he fucking care about his parents money at all. At the tender age of 22, he was already half-way up the corporate ladder without his dad's connection or influence and that is something I really admire about him.

Of course I can't tell that to the grieving widow. W did mention to me before that he wanted to move out so he can be independant despite the fact that his parents owned a huge mansion and there are only 3 of them living in the place now that the dad has passed away and his sis has moved to Perth for good. I guess it's a very different mentality all together.

I know the mum was hinting to me so that I would talk W to back out from the idea. She knew that W probably respects her but deep down inside, it hurts her to acknowledge the fact that his son loves me more than her because unlike his bro or sis, W has never actually open up entirely to his family. And he trusted me with all his heart.

Of course I didn't tell W what his mum said because it will only make him more determine to move out. And whoever said I was gonna talk him out of it? *innocent eyes*
