400 Cecelia AhernLife is strange now. Before even when she lay in bed looking frail andweak she still managed to make me feel safe. Mothers do that don’tthey? Their very presence can help. And even if I ended up motheringher in the final days, she still was taking care of me. I miss her.Steph: I do too and at the oddest times too. It’s only when you get backto the normal routine of life that you really feel it. I keep on havingto remind myself that when the phone rings it’s not her. Orwhen I get a free moment in the day I pick up the phone to call herand then I remember that she’s not there to call. It’s such an oddfeeling.Rosie: Yeah it is. Kevin is still in a huff with me.Steph: Ignore Kevin; he’s in a huff with the entire world.Rosie: Maybe he’s right though Steph. Mum has put me in such an awkwardposition by leaving me the house. Perhaps I should sell it andsplit the profits three ways. It’s fairer.Steph: Rosie Dunne you will not sell that house for me and Kev. She left itfor you for a reason. Kev and I are both financially secure, we bothhave houses, we really don’t need the Connemara house. It would bedifferent if we were both broke but Mum knows that me and Kevare OK so that’s why it was left to you. You work harder than thetwo of us put together and you still can’t get out of that flat. Mumdiscussed it with me before and I agreed with her. This is the bestway. Don’t listen to Kev.Rosie: I don’t know Steph; I’m not hugely comfortable with it . . .Steph: Rosie trust me, if I needed the money so badly I would tell you andwe could work something out. But I don’t. Neither does Kevin. It’snot like we were forgotten about in the will. We’re both fine, honestly.The house in Connemara belongs to you. You do with it whateveryou wish.Rosie: Thanks Steph.Steph: No problem. So what are you going to do over there on your ownRosie? I hate you being all alone. Do you want to come over herefor a while?
