Emotions are something to ponder

My dad suggested I call my mom on Skype (a free calling program you use on your computer), and eventually I did (after playing a little bit of "the Sims," of course.)

I don't know why, but I almost felt even more awkward on the phone. I guess it's because I haven't heard her voice in such a long time. We talked a little about our recent happenings and my opinion on the current ideas and decisions that were being made. When I heard her voice, I was kinda surprised. It almost felt that I was talking to a different person. Dunno why. It was strange. But then my voice started to break and I had to somehow hide it so she wouldn't notice. I even shed a tear or two, but kept my voice as steady as possible. It eventually went away. In the end, my mom had to leave to eat dinner.

Why did I almost cry...?

You almost cried because you missed your mom. DUH! Isn't it obvious? Heck, you're 14, you're not too old! There is no 'too old,' for crying anyway. I mean, when my mom left for Minnesota and was gone for two weeks, I cried because I missed her, and that was when I was 16. So you have every reason to cry.
And I even understand why you didn't want your mom to know you were crying, because I've done that before...sometimes, you just don't want people to know, even those close to you.

I hope you feel better. Don't worry, your mom is still your mom, even if she sounds different on the phone. And good luck on the Sims!
