A lesson

Curling his lips upwards, he tilts his head towards Amber who was sleeping like a newborn baby.

"You're the bestest thing that have happened to me Amber and I love you too with the whole of my heart"

He leaned closer to her and pecked her forehead. Relaxing his elbow on the bed, he supported his head with his hand while he brushed her hair with the other hand.

Lying next to her with a smiling face, he kept on staring at her beautiful face for several minutes before switching off the lights.

6:47am

Herbert's apartment

Ding! The elevator opened, Jaxon walked out of it and head towards the fridge to grab a bottle of soda.

Crossing her hands in the front, "Why didn't you call to inform me that you weren't coming home last night?" Sara said.

Spatting out the drink, Jaxon placed his hand on his chest, "Mom, you frightened me"

"I frightened you? Jaxon you made me panic all through the night, I was thinking maybe something bad has happened to you"

"Am fine and perhaps am a full grown man now, I can take care of myself, what if I tell you that I was at my place all through the night? Won't you believe me?"

"Of course I'll believe, why won't I believe my son, he's not a liar after all but I called you and you weren't picking up my calls, why?"

Awkwardly scratching his head, "well..umm, I was...I placed my phone on silent, I wasn't aware that it was ringing all through the night but that doesn't matter, right? Am here now" Jaxon faked a grin.

Taking a deep breath, Sara sighed and rolled her eyes off. "Yes you're here now but next time you're goin to stay out or at your place, please don't hesitate to inform me, okay?"

"Okay Mom, so where's that old man?"

Tilting her neck, Sara said, "well your old man daddy almost beat me up last night because of that useless rat named Amy Rockie"

"Huh" placing the bottle of soda on the table, he added, "he almost did what? And what's up with Amber? Any news yet?"

"Uhh I thought you read yesterday's magazine or maybe watched last night's news"

Brushing his hands on his face, he sighed, "no I didn't so what's up with it? But mom I told you to help get Amber, but you're just taking so much time"

"I am still trying to get her and it's not as easy as you think. I have no idea about her permanent address but I do have an idea about her temporary address"

"So... where?"

"Gavin Warren's place"

"Huh? So Gavin still have the guts to take away my belonging, I thought I already told him to stay away from Amber he–

"In yesterday's news, Amber expressed how much she love Gavin and how he helped her gain a clearer eye vision again."

"Oh really? Am goin to teach that Gavin a lesson"

"Hey what are you trying to do? Remember that Gavin is my best friend's son and I don't want anything that'll come between me and my best friend, so if you want to deal with anybody then let it be Amber and her miserable family, you get that?"

"You're right Mom, you're making sense, am going to get back at Amber for insulting me"

"Oh she opened her filthy mouth to insult my son, huh?"
