i could sense her uneasiness and stress after the day's events. it must have been a traumatic affair for her to experience my mum. and the day was a culmination of all the emotional and psychological tensions over the pass 2-3 weeks. i also noted a slight tint of defensiveness when she talked about how she managed mum. she must have misread me when i asked her those questions. clearly, all the mental preparations i carried out on the maid did not work. nonetheless, i was not surprised to see her being so tensed up. her face showed it clearly.
and on our way home from the hospital, i gave her the details of why mum behaved this way and without sounding like i was aiding my mum, i told her that these were expected challenges when one handles an elderly with mums mental issues… she listens quietly as i explained. i asked her this morning if she understood what i said. she replied positively and added that she couldn't sleep the whole night. i didn't ask her why but i suspected she was kinda confused about the whole issue. perhaps she even wondered if working for me is a good idea now!
haha...
