“I won’t but no drinking in my house,” Mrs. Brown said
“Pinky promise,” she replied
“How about you sing me a song, what did you think?” Mrs. Brown asked
“Sure, there is this song I wrote when you were still in a coma, I wanted to come over and sing it for you but since you’re here now let’s do it,” she said and went over to her piano
“It’s not an original song though but I changed so many things cos I put my soul in it,” she added
“Show me what you have got,” Mrs. Brown replied with a big smile
