how long?

How long will I keep looking out the window, seeing Mom's car and thinking, "She's home from work."

How many more times will I hear Dad talking to his Sugar Dog in the bedroom and assume he's chatting to Mom?

When will I stop reaching for the phone; either to call Her or to dial her number?

A year, maybe two. Could be longer. My mom's been gone 9 years now and every once in a while I think, "I should call Mom and tell her about this," or when I try to remember something from my childhood, I think I'll ask mom about it because she'll remember. Then I remember. :(
