"David"
Mrs. Miller called him from the living area.
When he heard her called him, he said
"I'm done for sure"
"David come here"
"Yeah mom"
Without any delay he went near his mom and sat next to her then he starts to blabbering some irrelevant topics in order to avoid the one he don't want to.
"Mom, you know what that brat Aiden did, he drank so much today that I have to drop him and and....", he couldn't find any topic to say.
While he was searching what to say, Mrs. Miller was watching her son intently and worried. When she take it more she stop him.
"Son!", When David heard that call he knows that he can't avoid it. He sighed and surrendered.
"You don't need to blabber, son"
"Can you tell mom what is going on atleast"
"You used to tell me everything before".
She reached out her hand and took his hand to reassure him. She ask him to sit in front of her on the ground so that she could give a head massage. While she was doing head massage she asked him
"Why don't you share what you feeling right to your mom".
"Mom its not like that, its just that.....", he hesitate to continue and Mrs. Miller continued
"You can't forget of her, your first love?"
"Ummmm"
"Mom its not that i didn't try to move on but i start to compare others with her, she is just too good"
"And the first you are talking about didn't even know that you had feeling for her", Mrs. Miller stop all of sudden and asked,
"David, does your first love you were talking all this time know you", when he heard that he choke his saliva and started to cough.
"Really??????", Mrs. Miller widened her eyes in shocked, she couldn't handle this time and she slapped him on his shoulder and said
"Your are really a disgrace as your nephew says"
"Mom could you say that"
Mrs. Miller tried to calm down
"Don't tell me all this time you were stalking her?"
Instantly he replied, "No....., how could you think like that mom"
"Before i could do that she already had boyfriend at that time and now....."
"ok lets leave all this past things and let's focus on today's one"
"Who is that girl your nephew is talking about?"
"Same girl mom"
"What??"
"I thought that i could move on but today i saw her, she is still there in my heart even if i try i can't", he said that with teary eyes.
"So she is already married and had kids which is same age as your nephew"
"ok tell her name atleast"
"Mom..."
"Again don't say that you don't name as well", giving him a disappointed look.
"No mom, its Lily"
"Lily??"
"Such a nice name"
"After all this time finally i got to know her name",and she look down on son who is sitting in front of her and said, "Go and rest, you must be tired, don't stay up late".
Mrs. Miller said that and went inside her room
"Before you go to your room don't forget to turn off the lights"
"Yeah... mom", he chuckles and he turn off the lights and went to his room, freshened up and slept.
After a while Mrs. Miller went to his room to check if he has slept or not, she went near him and sat next to him on his bed. She reached out her hand and gently stroke his cheek and took a long breathe and said softly, "Brat you really make me worried, not leaving me to take rest at this age, other than your work you are really useless" and she left silently after arranging his quilt.
