Today is the day that my shop will be finished since mom hired a lot of workers so the work would be a lot faster and I assigned where the worker's area is at.

I looked at my shop at a far distance and it was beautiful.

Although the flower shop isn't visible to many people , I posted it on my social media and shared it everywhere even though it reaches from the other country.

But soon , when I have more funds and have friends from different countries , I would build a branch there to sell beautiful flowers that has a beautiful language.

I looked back at the poster that my brother printed as I called him to help me out it around the city.

I only used my bicycle since it isn't really heavy and it has a basket so it is helpful.

The wind blows through my hair and the leaves were falling down the ground as it was decorated in brown and yellow leaves.

The sight of the trees makes me calm and I smiled as I greet the people I know in the streets.

I putted the poster on the stores nearby and talked to some shop owners that I met and of course , I asked their permission if they could help me out and promote my job.

My phone was vibrating on my left pocket as i excused myself to answer the call. It was William.

"I'm done putting out the posters and invitaions" He said on the phone as I smiled and looked at the empty basket that was full of invitation and posters as well. "Looks like our work is done here" I replied and he ended the call as I went home.

When I came home , I saw my brother talking to a girl , she has a very cute vibe on her. He smiles as he talks to her and she looks at him adoringly with those sparkling eyes.

Her face was small and her eyes are light brown as her hair was tied into a pontytail with the color of Auburn , she was beautiful and I wonder if those two is in love with each other.

I cycled pass through them and as I expected , they were talking seriously as they didn't see me pass by them and just smiled , just let that kind enjoy his youth than restricting him to do things that makes him unhappy.

I saw mom running slowly towards me as a bright smile welcomed me home as she pointed outside. "Did you see them?" She asked and I nodded as she stares at them adoringly. "How my son picked a fine young lady" I smiled. Our mom doesn't restrict us unless we do something bad because she doesn't want us to regret our decisons or have 'what if's' in our mind.

"Did you two talk earlier about her?" I asked and she nodded. "Her name is Julia , she is 17 and she also loves books and they've been together for almost a year!" Mom exclaimed as I smiled and looked at them from afar.

Later on , the two went inside the house as William approached me , along with Julia in the back. "This is Julia , my girlfriend , she's 17" He said as I smiled towards her and hugged her. "Take care of this boy since he doesn't like to be not taken care of" I giggled and she did too as William pouted and they went to the flower shop.

She was looking at the paint and smiled. "Your favorite color is sky blue isn't it?" She asked and I shook my head and walked towards her. "It's blue , all kinds of blue" I answered as my brother interrupts. "Even all her things and her clothes were all blue!" He said as he pointed at my phone and my navy blue t-shirt and a denim pants and I just chuckled at his opinion.

An hour later , she left the house with William as I sat down in the balcony with a book in my hands.

"Anna , sweetie , when will you find your own?" Mom asked from behind as I sip my tea and she sat beside me. "I'm just waiting for mine to come mom"

All my mom wanted is that we would be happy by making our decisions that it is right buy of course , we did made a wrong decision but Mom just said that it is life , you make right or wrong decision.

Mom never knew how I happy I am even in the sight of a flower as she just see me being lonely and just figured out to help me find someone I would like.

But I'm satisfied of taking care of a flower than having someone who isn't sure of that would just leave you alone.

It is wrong to think such things but I just don't want to regret choosing a decision because it would lead in to two ways , having a good future and having a bad future.

And I just wanted to make sure of myself that I will have a great future so that mom will be proud of me.

And I am glad we have a mother who supports us and accepts us for who we are and what we want to be.

She is always there , for me and for William.

Even though time changes.

She's always there.

For us


- love , nicó
