my dumb childhood part 2

one day when i was four, my mom caught a cold. she had to stay in bed all day and my dad wasn't home. hoping to make her feel better. i got a plastic kiddie cup and poured in milk, apple juice, a piece of cheese, and an umebosi ( a pickled plum, can be sour, or sweet. i put in a sour one.) i mixed it together, failing to notice that the cheese and the umeboshi was floating around. i ran over to my mom. "here mama!" she took the drink and took a sip. she did her best to hide her disgust. "Is this milk and apple juice?" i smiled and answered, "and cheese and umeboshi." my mom was touched. "thank you." she muttered, and put the drink in on the bed side table. i left, feeling like i did a great deed. but it did not help my mom. instead, the taste must have been horrible.
