"Mom, haven't you cooked another dish? " I asked my mother.

"No, son." Mother replied.

"Don’t mind me, Zander. I eat whatever is on the table. I am not picky about food. I'm used to eating simple, home-cooked food. Answered by Don. I did not say a word but continued to eat. Don sneezed later.

"Zander, can I invite your mother outside? We won't last any longer outside," he said.

I looked at my mom and she just remained bent over and continued to eat. I'm not numb so as not to feel that Don has a different motive for coming here to the house. I am also a man. So I know.

"I don't have a problem. Ask mom if she will agree. " I said.

"Your mother agreed. You just didn't have it, but since you agreed, thank you. "

Then I saw a glimpse of love in this man’s eyes as he looked at my mother, while my mother just kept on eating. Melissa did the same, as if no one knew what was going on. What is expected of a child at this age? It can only eat the food it wants to be happy in life. We also finished eating, and my mother put away the dishes. I am in the living room now and will sit down to digest what I ate. Don Agusto stood beside me.

"How is a teacher's life?" he asked me later.

"It's OK. It's tiring, but it's fun. " My answer.

"Good then."

"Do you have a girlfriend?" he asked me out of nowhere. I laughed.

"I was courting someone, but sadly I was not answered. Will I leave what I did wrong? " My answer.

Don Agusto laughed.

"Why? What is their reason? " "I do not know." He tapped my shoulder.

"Don’t lose hope. A handsome man like you can see something beautiful. The world is round. " He told me.

I knew he was taking my heart. But I think he is kind and easy to get along with. By the way, I’m here to court your mother. He is hesitant because he is worried about you, " Don said eventually.

"Why did I join you two? Will you be together just in case? "was my answer.

Don laughed.

"I like your attitude. We can get along easily."
I just nodded.

"Will you let me court your mom?" he asked me.

"I have no problem. Sir, my mother will decide. "

"All right, thank you. " And my mother came out beautiful. It was as if she had returned to her virginity. And she put on lipstick that matched the dress she was wearing. I nodded at him in assent.

"Your sister, Zander." She told me.

"I'll take care of Melissa, Mom." I said.

My mother has left, but I am still in the living room. I think maybe it’s happier when I have a girlfriend. There's nothing wrong with me flirting with Mitch; we're both single. The pain in my back from driving I am here now in the living room. While they were there, Luciana was already asleep. Drowsiness does not visit me. Now I just think that my life was very sad. It's a good thing there are nine of them here with me. I tried to call Mitch so I could talk to someone today. In two rings, she answered.

"Hello. Zaneska. How are you? " she asked me.

"When are you coming to visit me in the city?" I asked.

My life is still very busy. Then maybe you will when I'm not busy. And then Zaneska. I’m in love. I want you to meet my love of life. He's handsome. "

Mitch shouted on the other line. My eyes are rolling. Do you have a boyfriend? Who? "

"He's not my boyfriend yet, but he's close to me."

"Don't say you're the suitor." I asked him. Mitch laughed on the other line.

"No. You know, I'm not easy to get. " She says.

"All right, when you get out of here, bring him so I can meet him. "

"Sure," he said once the phone rang.

I went inside the bedroom and laid down on the bed to sleep. Randolf had called earlier, but I ignored him. He will take care of his life. I entered the room to go to Melissa, who was sleeping. I heard my phone ring as I lay in bed. And Melissa texted me. He greeted me and asked if I wouldn’t be out tonight. I told her it was only tomorrow night because there was no school on Saturday. Melissa woke up.

"Brother, has Mom arrived yet? She promised me that she would buy me ice cream when she came home. "

"It hasn't arrived yet, but I know my mother will buy ice cream. Go back to sleep. I'll just wake you up. "

Melissa nodded and went back to sleep. I left the room because I heard the gate ring, indicating that someone had entered. The door opened, and my mother came in with a paper bag.

"What about Melissa, Son, she's already asleep? "she asked me.

"She woke up earlier, mom, but she went back to sleep." My answer was: He bought me ice cream. It's a good thing it hasn't melted yet. Wait, I'll just put it in the fridge. " I followed him inside.

"How's your walk, mom?"

"It’s okay. August told me so. Did you two talk? "my mom asked me.

My mother suddenly blushed.

"Yes, he told me to court you."

"It's embarrassing! It's like we're teenagers again. Is it okay with you? "

"Yes, mother. No problem with me. Just be happy. "

"Thank you, son. Go to sleep." she said to me, and went into his room with Melissa.

I saw my mother pick up Melissa and carry her to their room. I also went into the bedroom to sleep. There's no school tomorrow, so I won't do paperwork. I gave myself a break. It's as if I can rest a little.
