- Let's go for a walk, shall we? I'll be there in no time.
- Ok, I'm going now, I'll be at the dogs yard, meet me there.
15 minutes later... My father and her arrive and signal to me from a distance, so as to have me follow them, SUPPOSEDLY to walk ALONG with them.
I quicken my step so as not to lose sight of them, but I keep a certain distance to watch things over. She walks as much as 20 meters ahead of my father, they (obviously) cannot even talk to each other.
We take eight rounds around the square. Not for a SECOND does she turn her head back to see IF I was with them (since she signaled to me to go along) nor, in the worst case, to see if my 74-old father had dropped DEAD, due to desperately trying to keep up with her pace. Finally, I see no point in jogging like this and I stop at the dogs yard to read some more of my book and to caress dogs that come near me.
So much for a "family".
