Bella's pov

" I....need time." I said after battling alot within myself.

He sighed sadly and said
" Take your time, I'll wait for you. "
After that he silently began to turn and go towards his car.

This time I wanted to stop him.
I wanted to ask him to stay a little bit longer .
Somewhere, I knew what my heart was telling me but a major and obstinate part in me didn't want to believe it.

I didn't do anything except to just stand there and watch him leave.

"You are late." I was greeted by a not so cheerful Gia standing like a strict mother at 2 am at night waiting for her teenage daughter to return home.

"No....I am sorry." I almost joked in an attempt to make her smile.

"But I am angwy." She said while scratching her nose.

"Hello angry I am sorry. Now.....let me come in please."

She gave a dramatic sigh in response and said.

"Okay come but next time you are not supposed to be late. Okay?"

"Okay!" I nodded.
"Then come inside. Quick."

"Hi Bella. " Elena entered.
"Heya.Ele." I greeted her back and tried hard not to sound off.

"Come in ,I made butter cookies. "
"Oh that's great." I said amidst entering the house.

"Ahem Ahem." Gia fake cleared her throat to grab our attention while we were sitting and having butter cookies.

I on the other hand was not actually eating the cookies but wandering whats wrong with me. I was not feeling the way I would always do whenever I met Gia , I was not my usual cheerful self . However I exactly knew the reason behind this distress.

"So ladies and.......ladies . I am going to present to you a beautiful song."

"Yay.." Elena began to cheer her up .

She cleared her throat once again.

"Mumma ,you told me that we must obey God at all times. But after that, who else should we listen to and be close to?"
She asked.

"Who?" Elena asked where as I just remained silent but was genuinely curious to hear her out.

"Your Mother." She said and left me in aww.

Then she began singing.
"Who should I give my love to?
My respect and my honour to?
Who should I pay good mind to after God?
Comes your mother
Who next?
Your mother and then your father.

'Cause who used to hold you and
clean you and clothe you
Who used to feed you
and always be with you
When you were stay up all night
Holding you tight thats no other
My mother

Who should I take good care of
Giving all my love who should I think the most of aftet heavenly father?
My mother.
Who next?
Your mother.
Who next?
Your mother.
And then your father.

'Cause who used to hear you before you could talk?
Who used to hold you before you could walk?
And when...when you...uh..oops....."

She formed her lips in a thin line , she was very upset and blinking her eyes several times looking down. I could tell she was about to cry as things didn't go as planned.
