Well, if that was what worried you, I'd have told Mom to bring a steak.
She recalled no emotions, though, to indicate if that exchange was good or bad.
I always wondered if that was why Mom and Dad split up for a while - because Mom was used to a different lifestyle and social circle.
Still, if that were the case, she need not have brought up the telephone call at the table.
It wasn't as if that was the most important part, so why did it hurt the most?
