A Woman on Her Heels

  A new day, another exam for Zane, another day for Anya. As Anya was on holiday, she was free but wasn't bored due to Elder Collins at home. 

Missing Alvin was inevitable when getting on the cold bed, nobody teasing her in the bedroom or telling her that he will drop Zane. Even if he was talking or not, his presence was enough to fill the silence with comfort.

Anya watched her darling son's eyes often wandering in her bedroom and another side of the bed to confirm Alvin wasn't there. But he wouldn't ask or say it.

Son was like his father. Alvin was also trying to be part of Zane's life and was doing the things he had expected from his father or parents. Unfortunately, he wasn't saying it and was pretending like he didn't care.

"Baby, do you wanna talk to Alvin?" Anya asked while driving the car towards school and Alvin was on the call.

"Momma, I am revising." He was indeed studying but wasn't busy enough to avoid a call.
