how soon
You're defending her? Did you hear what she said about me "
"No I didn't but please mom she's important don't hurt her"
"I don't care if she's part of management, let her not try me again " his mom said
"Here's the money, please leave "
She was satisfied and she left
"Hey I am sorry " Lena apologized
"That was something I never wanted you to see"
"Sorry again "
"Hey Lena I am grateful for you standing up for me but don't insult my mom again…. Please "
"How is he still calling her mom, maybe one day she'll ask " she thought
"Ok I am sorry I just can't stand when someone treats you like that even if she's your mom but I promise I will never do that again "
He smiled and hugged her
"Thank you " he said and kissed her cheek softly
She was lost after that and he asked
"So you're part of management? How come I didn't know "
She laughed and said
"Sorry you heard everything "
"Come on let's go watch me eat" he said and laughed.
Aidan for the first time spoke back at his mother and couldn't sleep,
Early in the morning he called his mom and apologized
"It's ok she's part of those paying you so ask her to forget everything that happened"she said and hung up the call without even asking how he was but he was glad he was able to apologize
"Did you hear them chanting your name, screaming out your name today, oh I was so happy " Lena said
"No I only saw you making the loudest noise for me"
"Oh come on although I was shouting I am sure you didn't even hear my voice "
"I will recognize your voice even if the whole world is shouting because there's a certain melody in your voice that only belongs to you "
"Really?!! So how do I sound "
" like a bee" he said and laughed
"Hey!!"
"I am just joking" he said smiling
Lena stared at him and he realized
"What?"
"You can make jokes now?" she said
"Only when I am around you " he said and smiled and she looked at him and said
"You're really handsome and beautiful inside and outside, I am glad I got the opportunity to be close to you, thank you for giving me hope" Lena said and he hugged her
"What do you mean by giving you hope "
"One day you'll understand" she said
It was his birthday and before the d-day, Lena gave him something and asked him not to open it, she also told him she had something important to tell him at 12 so he should pick up his phone when she calls
She sounded so serious that Aidan got scared, he could hardly sleep, he picked up as soon as she called
"So what's that important thing " he asked impatiently
She smiled and started singing a happy birthday song to him, after she was done
"What is that important thing" he asked again
"I just said it, happy birthday Aidan "
"It's my birthday?" He asked
"Is it not? but that's what is given on your profile" she asked confused
"What's today's date?" He asked and she replied
"Hello?!!!"
He was quiet for a moment before he spoke
"Thank you so much love"
"Love? He said love. Is he referring to me or the fact that today is his birthday" she wondered but too afraid to ask cause she didn't want to ruin the moment
She asked him to open the box she gave him
"That's your birthday present although it's not that much I hope you really like it"
"I love it already " he said
"Have you opened it?" She asked
"Not yet "
" then wait till I hung up, it has a letter in it" she said and hung up
what was in the letter that she hung up?, he wondered and opened the box
