The Mother I Barely Knew

Xhemin entered the grey cottage and switched on the lights, only to be welcomed by an unexpected familiar silhouette who had been waiting for her at the living room.

"Grandpa?" Xhemin was surprised to see Dr. Miles as she didn't expect him to be home. Since Huzey's accident, the old man barely comes home at this hour "You are home?"

Dr. Miles looked at Xhemin in a hard gaze "Where have you been?"

"I went to the hospital to see Huzey and I went out to see a friend," She answered politely aware of the glint of indifference in Dr. Miles eyes. Did he saw Darryl and her outside?

"A friend?" The old man's lip curled before he confronted her once again. "That's the Lagdameo heir I saw in the gate…"

Xhemin's face lost all the colour she had in her face when Dr. Miles pointed the fact.
