“I’m home.. Jeffrey announced and walked into his room. He laid on the bed thinking about violet when his mom walk up to him
“So you still aren’t satisfied after seeing her face all night? His mom spoke
“Gosh mom, you startled me. He said and sat upright. “Wait, haven’t I told you to stop entering my room without knocking? What if I was naked?” He frowned
“See my son talking about nakedness now. I hope you know it wasn’t quite long since you stopped running naked around the house? ” His mom scoff
“So did you have the chance to tell her?” She asked sitting closer to him.
“Mom, you know I can’t, I’m scared. He replied
“Why? You’ve been friends from childhood and she likes you a lot so why are you afraid? She asked
“Yeah, she likes me… but just as a friend” Jeffrey replied sadly
“You wouldn’t know if she likes you or not unless you take a bold step and ask her about her feelings for you. His mom said and he nodded
“Anyway, I will be late for school if we keep chitchatting.. He said and his mom nodded.
“What about dad? Jeffrey asked
“He came back with a broken head last night, though he didn’t tell me how he got the wounds and now, he has gone back to work.. his mom explained
“Hmm.. Jeffrey breathe out before proceeding to the bathroom while his mom left his room.
He was done minutes later and walked out of his room a for breakfast. He ate hurriedly since he was late
“See you soon mom. He said and ran out of the house. He board a cab and headed to school at once.
He was somehow sad he didn’t get to see violet before going to school
