Two hours had passed, Ian was back at home and he had just announced his plans to live alone. Amy was as shocked as everyone, she didn't think he would come to such a decision but she was curious to where this was going. Alex fell quiet but one could see the evident fury on her face. She suddenly broke out into a laugh, throwing her head back before leaning forward to slap her thighs seeming amused. One would think she had just heard the best joke ever.
"Did you hear him? Did you all hear him? The first thing he says is he wants to live on his own", she laughed again. Stella and Richard frowned when they saw this.
"Mom-" he started but he was interrupted by his angry mother.
"Not one word from you. You just disappear putting us all in a panic then you suddenly come back with not so much as an explanation, and the first thing you say is what?" Alex spoke through gritted teeth whilst trying to keep her tears under control.
