Helena

Helena’s fifteen year old daughter Max hates her right now. Right now and all the time, actually. How does Helena know? The eye rolls, the scoffy exhalations of air, the silences, the slammed doors, the texting her best friend right after Helena asks her to do something. The way the air between them feels. There is a war, but Helena is a conscientious objector. She knows engaging in the fight will serve no good end. She is patiently waiting for Max to turn thirty. The wine helps.
