~[JENNA]~I take a deep breath the moment he exits the office and slump my shoulders with weariness thinking about the severe discussion we just had.I shrug and begin to think about the likelihood of Mom's action at the news she is about to hear within, maybe an hour or so.I am about to relax on the table in the office to wait for my precious clothes when a pulse in my pocket catches my attention.I get up immediately and look down to behold my phone ringing constantly in my pocket. I frown with wonder and pick it up to see with happiness that it is Chloe calling me.I can't resist the urge as a smile explores my face while I immediately pick up the call. She replies immediately like she is impatiently about something. “Hello Jenna. How's it been? How is your mom now? Where are you? hope everything is alright?" She immediately splashes a lot of questions in my ear and I find myself laughing uncontrollably. “Hey. easy chloe everything's all right everything is alright chloe. You h

Eric is still basking in the amusement of her wide eyes gazing at him with extreme shock at the comment he just made moments ago. Unexpectedly, her beautiful gray eyes sparkled as she shone them brightly while looking at him and that started making little effect on his body. He didn't expect that her looking at him like that would affect him to the deepest core of his system. That was unexpected."Sorry. I did not get what you said. What exactly are you trying to tell me?" She asked, flustered moments later after recovering from the head-pounding shock that took over her brain. Eric is still standing in his position gazing endlessly at her beautiful eyes as though his intelligence has suddenly evaporated. Her question snapped him back to the present and he blinked his eyes rapidly trying to recall what her question was. Thanks to his retentive memory, he was able to and he smiled down at her.He lifted the orb in his hands and displayed it to her. "You do not know how you are going to

The attitude Jenna just portrayed now made Eric stand in his position as he gazed at her with his eyebrows furrowed. What happened? Why did she go back inside like that? He wondered as he looked around him with the thought in his head that she might have probably seen the ghost of someone she didn't want to see. Then he returned his focus to the door with his eyebrows still in a frown. He bent and looked inside at her as she rubbed her aching head still wincing in pain. "Jenna? " He called and she slowly looked up at him childishly with the most beautiful glittering soft gray eyes. Then a nervous grin explored her face." Hi. " She said and he chuckled. "Are you okay? What happened? " He asked and she smiled softly before taking a deep breath." I am so so sorry. I didn't mean to shock you that way. But look, my friends are about to head in there. I don't think this is a good idea, Eric. We will have to return home. With the way I see things, they are actually about to visit my mo

It's done, Jenna. You can do this easy peasy. It is not going to be that hard. You just have to cool the fuck down and face your mom and tell her the absolute truth about your current relationship right now. Maybe not the entire truth but at least the surface truth that you want her to know. Jenna thought to herself as she clung tightly to Eric's arm while they walked towards her mom's room. Eric noticed how tight and strong her grip was on his arm and it made him know that she was nervous as hell. Eric could only shake his head. A few meters close to her mom's ward door, he paused and pulled his arm away from her before wrapping his arms around her holding her against his embrace. "You need to calm down Jenna. Honestly, it's not seriously that big of a deal. " He said and she gulped down hard. 'Oh great. ' She thought so herself. 'I shouldn't be making him feel this bad.' She thought and finally looked up at him with a big smile. "I'm fine. I'm not worried about anything. Why did

Mrs Lawrence looked at the duo before her with confusion in her brain and a smile on her face as Eric lovingly assisted Jenna with the rest of her luggage with the both of them smiling at each other at certain points of the activity. She found herself rubbing her chin with confusion and worry in her expression. 'This is just too good to be true for Jenna.' She kept on thinking to herself as she watched them with her arms folded. When at last it was all done, Jenna finally turned around to face her mom. "Okay. I think we are done now. " She said and glanced at Eric. He grinned. "We are set to go." She said and Mrs Lawrence nodded her head softly. Her daughter looked happy. She looked happy and content with the man standing beside her. 'Isn't this just crazy? ' She thought to herself as she observed the both of them. 'my daughter is just 18 for heaven's sake. And according to what I have heard the man before her is 10 years older than she was. Old enough to be... ' She paused in her
