Episode 17

Alexander's POV

After watching Mona as I usually call her cry to sleep last night, I couldn't help but to feel guilty. I laid down on the couch to sleep but sleep was very far away from me.

She really must have missed her mum and I totally understand that feeling. During my early years, mum and dad were the busy types. They hardly spent time with me and I was left alone in the caring hands of my grandmother who died few years ago.

I was pampered by my grandmother and she made sure I got whatever I wanted. She would shout at my parents for scolding me and even threatened to close down one of the high school I attended because a teacher scolded me badly. After much drama, my grandma spared her because she was just newly employed and doesn't know the rules.

Although my grandma did everything to make me happy, I still missed my parents; most especially my mum. I would always silently cry to sleep each night, hoping that a day would come when she would sing lullabies and cuddle me to sleep
