Chapter 2 - Call me mom

Lady: You really shouldn't trust strangers easily, you know? What if I am a bad person who will take advantage of your kindness?

Jaxon: That won't be possible. I have my own methods.

Lady: ...

Jaxon: I am not forcing you, you can stay under that dome till the rain is over or at least take my umbrella so that you won't be sick.

Lady: I will go with you

Jaxon: Alright, follow me

*Both of them were silent while walking until they reached an apartment*

*Jaxon pulls out his keys and opens the door*

Lady: You are staying here?

Jaxon: Yeah….

*There place was filled with dust and the apartment looked like it has been abandoned for years*

Lady: Do you live here alone?

Jaxon: I don't have a family . They are all dead

Lady: I see...….

Jaxon: By the way, what should I address you as?

*The lady gave a light smile*

Lady: How about you call me mom?

Jaxon: What…

Lady(while chuckling): I am telling you that my name is mother, if it is alright with you?

Jaxon: Suit yourself ... mother

Mom: That said what is your name?

Jaxon: Jaxon

Mon: Very well Jaxon, then I will be in your care from now on.

*Jaxon then proceeded to give 'mom' a tour around the apartment. It has little space and barely clean enough for a person to live in.*

Mom: You are going to get sick if you keep living like this you know?

Jaxon: It doesn't really matter since I am outside all day.

Mom: Is it alright if I meddle with your things while cleaning this apartment?

Jaxon(a little shocked): Sure, I don't mind. However, you should rest for today.

Mom: Sure, what about you?

Jaxon: I still have to do some homework.

Mom: I see...…..

Mom: Very well , make sure not to overwork yourself and good night

Jaxon: Good night

*Jaxon completed his homework and went to sleep*
