Embarrassing Mom Moment
U/carpe_perdiem: “I was in the school musical…and I was singing a duet with the cutest boy in school. Then the fire alarm went off. The stage manager signaled to us that it was just the fog machine and to keep going. Cute guy started to get nervous so I grabbed his hand to give him strength. The audience, of course is awkwardly leaving because…the fire alarm is going off.
Just then, I see a blurry shape out of the corner of my eye. Someone is running towards me…it’s a woman. She’s screaming. It’s my mother. She runs up to me on the stage…and screams into my face microphone, ‘What are you doing?!! There’s a fire! Get these kids out of here!…’ I was shunned for weeks and 12 years later my drama teacher still tells the story to his students.”
