Letter to My Daughter (2008)
“As often happens, the leader of the group showed herself immediately. There was no question as to who was the boss. The woman was small, with a quick smile and a high-pitched voice. She met each statement I made with a sarcastic rejoinder. Not caustic enough for me to call her down but pointed enough for me to realize she meant to put me in my place, which was obviously somewhere beneath her.
I said, “I’m glad we are meeting in this restaurant, it is one of my favorites.”
She said, “I have not ...been here for years but I remember the last time the atmosphere was so boring we could have been in an old lady’s home.”
She looked around, smirked, and said, “It does not seem as if it has gotten any better.”
After she had responded sarcastically to my statements three times, I asked, “Why are you doing that?”
She answered in a sweet innocent voice, “What, what am I doing?”
I said, “You are timidly attacking me.”
She laughed and said, “Oh no, I was just showing you that you cannot be right about everything all the time.MoreLess
