It took us half an hour to get to the place. He helps me climb out of his cool motorcycle, lifts my luggage and hands it to me. I almost wince with relief when I see Aunt Felsie walking towards us with her genuine smile.

"Liana." She hugs me and I hug her back.
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBoYjqlMZSS
It takes more than a few seconds for her to realize she's hugging me. I fake a laugh to make her smile and I did.

"I have missed you. Why have not you come to see us? It's been years, I guess." She pushed her bottom lip forward.
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpZ0mNTaM2n
She's right, I am just not in the mood. I already have plans to visit, but I have scrapped them. I can not stand my plans.
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDSQq76aZ7R
"Anyway, I have cooked something. Would you like to try it?" she asked.
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFB7l4f9g2l
I give a half nod. "Yes, I'd love to."
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOiMHjI7rZY
Me and Jadster walked inside while his hand wrapped around my waist. I missed him. As I remembered, I was here when I was in college. But now that I graduated, I had even forgotten to visit. I am so lame. As I step through the door, I smell an enticing scent. The scent tempts me to rush to where it came from.
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAiSEKy7djt
"Where is that smell coming from?" I asked him as his finger pointed to the kitchen.
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM3wrxyBp4s
My feet take me there. When I entered the kitchen, I saw her cooking. Damn. It's so damn good. No wonder why Tito Jared loves her. She was so sweet and calm.
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeBB8I2WOPT
I did not even see her get mad at me or hit me for my transgressions when I was with them back then. That's why I like her better than my mom.
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzR7Qq6RZtZ
"I am doing this for your own good," I remembered her saying.
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEU5cGYkjih
'For my good? I think she meant for her good, not mine. It's so weird to hear my mom say something like that, and honestly, it almost makes me laugh. Oh! I forgot I was really laughing.
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhvc0nMNZM3
"Are you okay?" she asks, and I snap out of my reverie.
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNqsT0zxlFD
I tilt my head. "Yeah. I just feel exhausted, I guess."
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtRHhC63uaQ
I manage to find the humor, though my mind keeps searching for my mother's condition. She beams and returns what she's doing right now. I place my hands on my cheeks and prop both elbows on the kitchen island.
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqb1wpfjI5S
"Can I ask you a question?" I interrupt her.
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyqaB96kNn8
She turns her head to look at me. "Sure."
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnrw53j8FYn
She gives me a smile before returning to her work. I gather all the thoughts I can grasp. So I can ask her seriously.
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCnIDKdg9uY
I tighten my lower lip. "Um... is love more important than your career?"
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcvmqDarM76
I do not know why I am even asking this, knowing that my mother and I were the exact people who did not get along. She was insane and difficult. With her husband, they are both a disaster.
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpFr24udk17
"For me, love is more important than career. But it can also be the opposite. We have our reasons why we choose love over career or the opposite. If that's important for the future, then I can not blame that person." She gasped after saying those words.
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNhITmFsqib
"Sorry, I am choking on my own words..." she laughed.

I half smile and jerk my head towards the wall. Yeah, she's right. We have our reasons for choosing her. But does it matter? I need love, love from my mother, and not for this fucking future.
