And even plans the dinner outside, giving the excuse that there is nothing proper to eat in the house. But a mother's duty is to see to it that her daughter, who comes home after a long time, is fed homemade food and preferably with mothers own hands. Even when they reach the bar and order drinks, first as every good mother she inquires about the daughter's studies and plans for future but slowly as that topic drifts towards the mother's plans and her house, the mother starts talking to her new husband as both of them throw the daughter out of the conversation. Even her mother's new husband starts off about their house that it was too big and old, and so they were looking for something smaller and newer or temporarily renting a place. The new husband is also as neglecting as the mother but is also a bit too drunk and above normal when he calls the bar waitress "sweetheart", soon after which he calls the daughter the same. And not many of the bar waitresses would not be angry on being called a "sweetheart".
The mother neglects her duties towards her past, her daughter, that too for her new husband, her present. She didn't even consider asking her daughter's opinion about her remarriage, only talked to her about it a couple of times, that too long distance. Then the mother is giving justification about her choice, saying, "He makes me feel living again." That was intended in terms of sexual life. "I feel like a woman again." What is that supposed to mean? As if she was deprived of being a woman before she met her new husband. She is just trying to convince her daughter that the new husband is a good choice her mother has made. And then later in the evening, the daughter is feeling dizzy because of hunger but the mother and her new husband, who were enjoying each other's company at the bar, neglect the daughter and go on for a third round of drinks. .
The mother sounds happy with her new husband who makes her feel like a "woman" again.
