00:00 Hey love, it's me. I know you said you wanted some space, but I miss you a lot.
00:07 I just wanted to let you know that I will be coming. I'm going to hit the road and I
00:26 should be there in a couple of days. It's been a long time since I've seen them.
00:33 I'm just so happy that you're here. This is Monica. Hi. Hey. Your mother. She doesn't
00:44 know who I am. I don't know what I would do if I couldn't be with my own mom at a moment
00:54 like this. You gotta say I never would have recognized you. Listen, whatever's happening,
01:01 it's not worth it. Family comes first. I know you told me not to call, but I just
01:12 needed to talk. I can no longer be your mother. That's what
01:23 she said to me. Is everything okay?
01:30 She's been very tough around here. What are you going to tell her?
01:48 What's your name? Please remind me. Monica.
