Where Are You?

So I was at cocktail party the other night with my sister and some of her coworkers when I saw my phone was ringing.

I looked and saw it was my mother.

"Hello?" I said.

"Deana, where are you?" my mom said.

"Oh, I must've forgot. We've been sitting here waiting for you to come home so we can eat dinner."

When my phone conversation ended, a few people were looking at me.

"Yes, that was my mother wondering why I wasn't home for dinner..."
