The Note

Aside from Damien, only one person knew her landline number. Whenever there were contact details that needed to be filled up, she always used her mobile number.

“Go ahead and answer it.” Damien said to her nodding his head. “I will take care of Adam’s breakfast.” He added.

Arabella looked at Damien with a thankful expression and strode towards the telephone. Her mind was a bit messy right now thinking about the call.

“Hello, Farrah.” She quickly greeted. She registered a landline number for only one reason. It’s for her best friend.

“Bestie, your mom…” Farrah’s voice was shaking in the other line.

“Tell me… what about my mom?” She asked worriedly.

“Good news, she is asking for you. She wanted to see you. But…” Farrah reported but stopped with hesitation to continue.

“But what, Farrah?” Arabella was very happy to hear that her mother was asking for her. For so many years, she didn’t recognize her as her daughter and she allowed herself to be trapped in her trauma.
