Chapter 27 - Phone Call

" Hey Mom " I said to her as I opened the door and she was at sitting in the couch . I had dropped Jenny to her house .

" Welcome back Troy " she said with a smile as she stood up to give me a hug .

I looked around and the house looked very clean , I wasn't surprised at all she had quit her job so she spent the whole day doing nothing and she wasn't a kind of lady that enjoyed being idle I guess she had cleaned the house for the whole day as it was spotless .

I went to my room , she had also cleaned it . Thanks to her I didn't have to take time to clean it myself . I threw my bag on the bed .

I had to remove my uniform and change to casual ,I hated my uniform mostly wearing the tie , my former school we didn't have a tie but but here wee do I guess I have to bear . I removed the tie and threw it the other side .

I went downstairs after I was done changing to casual . I found mom standing in the dining room.

" You are gonna order food " she said as soon as she saw me .

" why ? " I said in confusion .

" I didn't cook food today " she said .

" so you don't want to cook for your only son " I said to mockingly .

" it's not that " she said in a soft voice trying to defend herself .

" what's it then " I said .

She didn't reply me .

" Whatever " I said going up the stairs .

" And there is something else " she said hesitatingly .

" Yes " I said turning and slopping down the stairs .

" I'm going out with a friend " she said hesitatingly.

" Are you serious " I said loudly . She had expected that I would react like this she didn't react .

" You just went out like 2days ago " I said .

" Yeah but..." she tried defending herself .

" C'mon mom just tell me his name or bring him and I meet him " I said to her .

She looked shocked .

" How did you know " she said with a surprised look on her face .

" Mom I know " I said to her proudly .

She opened her mouth and it made an O shape as if she had realized something .

" Have you been checking my phone "

" No how can I even if I had I would know the name" I said to her calmly .

" Oh that's true " she said realising I had not checked her phone .

" Just bring him " I suggested again .

She sighed and let out a deep breath .

" Look Troy I will bring him when it's the right time " she said in a low voice .

" Ok Mom whatever you want " I said to her in a gentle voice And started going upstairs .

" Troy " she called me and I looked behind .

" Yes mom " I replied

" I love you so much " she said her voice full of emotion.

" I love you too Mom " I said then went to my room.

I reached my room and laid on the bed . I felt happy that mom had started dating someone else for so long . I wanted her to be happy , so her dating someone didn't actually affect me . I felt happy for her .

A message popped on phone and I reached for it .

" Hey " the message was from Tess .

" Hy " I replied to her fast .

" You busy " she texted me fast meaning she wasn't busy but just wanted to talk to me .

" Nah I'm free "

" Grt let's talk I'm pretty bored " I wondered how can she be bored with Amanda there .

" How so " I texted her

" Dad had gone out for a date , Amanda is out with Jerome I'm just alone except for the maids and guards "

" Mom is also going for a date and her Dad has gone for a date what a counciendence " I thought to myself .

" My mom is also going for a date so I'm also alone " I texted her .

" So let's keep each other company " she texted .

" Yeah that's a great idea "

" Can I call you and we talk instead of texting I'm tired of typically " she texted and I was surprised she wanted to talk to me . Maybe she had started liking me who knows .

" Yes but call after 3minutes I'm gonna first order something to it eat "

"Ok "

I ordered pizza within less than 2 minutes and waited for her to call .

She called exactly after 3minutes . I also didn't delay I picked her call quickly .

" Hey done ordering your food " she said .

Her voice sounded sweet in person but also sweet over the phone .

" Yap it will be here in 20minutes " I sad to her .

" Oh , Let me also let the maids know that I will be eating within 20minutes " she said

" Why ?" I asked in confusion .

" So that we can eat at the same time it will be like a date but over the phone " she said then giggled a little .

Hearing her giggle was so magical I felt joy feeling me up .

" I guess we are having our first date over the phone" I said to her .

" I guess so " she said then giggled again .

Just then I heard a knock on my door .

" Hold in a sec " I said to her and went to open the door .

" Yes mom. " I said while opening the door .

I was surprised by what I saw .

" How do I look ? "she asked me nervously .

" Do I look bad " she said looking at me just starring at her .

She had wore a deep blue dress which went up to under her knees , with long sleeves and it had a blue floor and designs near the chest . with long black high heels and a black purse . she had put on light make up and her not so long hair was loose . she looked marvelous .

" No Mom you look great " I said to her .

" You sure " she asked me again .

" Yes hundred percent sure " I said to her .

We heard a car pull over .

" He's here " she said panicking a bit .

" Come down you gonna do great " I said to her .

" Bye Troy don't stay up waiting for me " she said then rushed downstairs .

I wanted to go and meet that mysterious man my mom was dating but I wanted to honor her word she said it wasn't the right time to meet him . I just went back to my room .

" Troy are you still there " I heard Tess' voice .

" Yeah I'm here sorry about that "

" it's okay my dad was also nervous for his date " she said .

" So did you hear anything " I asked her .

" Yap I heard everything " she said while giggling .

" Really "

" Yap I think your mom is sweet " she said .

We talked until let night .

I was somehow waiting for Mom to come back but she wasn't back by midnight so I just went to bed after saying goodnight to Tess .
