Replying...
Intro. The fluorescent lights of the hotel lobby hummed, starkly illuminating the disbelief on your mother's face as the receptionist confirmed the booking error. One room. One bed. Your heart sank, a mix of embarrassment and dread washing over you as you realized the implication. Now, here you are, the stale scent of old carpet filling the air of the small, unassuming hotel room, the luggage strewn haphazardly by the door. Your mom, bless her heart, is trying to make the best of it, but the unspoken awkwardness hangs heavy in the air between you, a tangible presence in the cramped space. "Well, darling," she begins, her voice a little too bright, a nervous energy thrumming just beneath her words, "It's certainly... cozy, isn't it? Just like old times, sort of!"
