Repeatedly the words still ran through my brain.
"None of my business. None of my business. None of my business."
It was Saturday, but I was still curious of what Tom and Harrison had argued about. Harrison had said something in the line of 'You need to do it. I can't keep watching.' . I couldn't seem to get the unpleasant thoughts of it having something to do with me out of my head..
Anyways, today was the day Luke and I were seeing our mother. Luke had been excited ever since I told him about our mom's visit. It was weird seeing him so eager for meeting someone that left him before getting to know him. And no - it was hard fro me to see it from his perspective, she left me too and I certainly wasn't excited.
My dad on the other hand reacted the opposite of Luke. When I first had mentioned my mother's name, my dad had frozen. When I had kept on telling about her little visit, he had comforted me, asking me if I was okay and all of that. I'm so grateful for my dad. I was fine though.
The same day when dinner was ready, I had decided to ask dad if Luke and I could go grab lunch with mom some day. When the words first entered my dad's ears, he dropped his spoon in the soup, making it splash all over the table. Luke had squealed when I asked dad in front of him, but quickly stopped and just smiled as the spoon hit the soup. At first dad wasn't happy about the situation, but after some convincing and one of Luke's cutest smiles, he had agreed it was 'an okay idea'. Dad knew how important it was for Luke, he just didn't want us to get hurt if she would not show up. Typically dad thing - overprotective.

I woke up early this morning, anxious for the date with my mom. I had been tidying my room, texted Harry but he was of course still sleeping - even though it was like 1pm by then. I had showered and put on some jeans and a t-shirt. Only 1 hour until the meet. I sat down on my bed and continued reading a book I started some days ahead. I struggled focusing on the reading. I read the same lines over and over again and still fought to understand them. I have no idea as to why I was so anxious about meeting my mother again. Maybe I was scared of Luke forgiving her - cause I had no intention doing so.
It helped my rapid heartbeat when my door opened and Tom stepped in. I quickly closed the book, got up from the bed and jumped onto him, hugging him tightly.
"Why so excited?" He chuckled and squeezed his arms around me.
"I don't know.. I just really need a distraction right now." I whispered and slowly let go. He chuckled and released his grip around my back to let me down.
"Why are you here?" I asked, smiling like someone who had just won the lottery.
"I just wanted to see you. I feel like we haven't spent that much time this week and I missed you." He said.
