Taking Mom to the Movies

This looks good," Tom said as he went to the kitchen for breakfast.
She smiled, "Thanks. I was supposed to meet some clients this morning, but I got a message last night that they had to cancel. My boss said I could finish my report at home, so I figured I might as well do some cooking and catch up on chores."
"That's cool," he replied while eating. "I've got an exam today and it's a real pain in the ass. But seriously mom, you work too hard and you should try relaxing a little."
"If I relaxed during my free time, then who would cook and clean for my college boy?"
"Good point. In that case, just work the amount that you need and don't tire yourself out too much."
She playfully slapped him on the arm. "Very funny. You know, if I didn't love you so much, I'd force you to do your laundry and clean your room."
He finished his food and kissed her. "Then I guess I'm lucky to have such an awesome mother. I wish I could stay and eat, but I have to meet some friends for last minute studying. It's the only way I can be as smart as you, right?"
"I'm glad we agree on that," she replied as he smiled and left.
