So, help me, God!

Mum?
Yes Jack.
Mu-um?
What, darling?
What’s a new year’s resolution?
A promise you make to yourself on the first day of the year. To do something. Or, more likely, not do something.
Oh.
But most likely, you don’t keep the promise.

Mum?
Yes.
Mu-um?
What dear?
Mum, did you make a new year’s resolution?
Yes, I did. Midnight, last night.

Mum?
Jack?
Mu-um?
What now?
Mum, did you keep it?
I’m trying hard precious, but it’s difficult.

Mum? Mu-um?
Enough! Back in the box with you or, so help me God, I’ll fail yet again.
