Is the underlined a completely natural sentence?

Thanks,

Not to me, no. There is an expression "part ways (with)", but I don't know "part your ways". ("part ways (with)" is usually used about significant or permanent separations, not about everyday events like this.)

It should be "pick up my mother".
