Jason....
Few minutes after Mercy left my place. I decided to go clean up my room.
It's already 5pm in the evening and all i have taken today is snacks and some light breakfast this morning.
I had to eat something solid and weighing if I'm going to sleep well tonight.
But first I am heading to my room to work and when its 6:30pm i will get to the kitchen and start preparing dinner. maybe i should make some spaghetti or porridge for dinner, mom can have some of the food when she comes back home tomorrow.

After cleaning my room and taking out the trash. I dropped my tired body down on my bed.
🎵my heart is stereo, it's beat for you so listen close. Hear my thoughts in every no oh-ote....🎵
I heard my phone ringing. Turning to the direction of my phone i saw the caller ID
"Mom?" I voiced out surprisingly. Picking up the call,I speak into it tiredly.
"Mom...was sup?"
I greeted her Sluggishly.
" Baby, how are you doing my love?" She asked sounding worried.
"I'm fine mom, what about you?" I asked her sitting up on the bed.
"You most be bored out of your mind? Staying at home alone" she asked sounding more worried.
I grunt a little at her worried voice.
She just don't know how my week has been going that's the only reason why she's worried for nothing.
"No oo Mommy I'm not bored. I'm just tired"
"Tired?..for what? Love what did you do?"
She asked rising her voice up.
"No Mom...I'm not up to anything —"
"Then tell me the reason why you are tired?" Her voice started getting desperate with worries.
"Mom just calm down OK. I'm just doing a little clean up in my room" i said reassuring her. She calms down a bit and decided to ask about Jessica. Well she's the only close friend i have, and we have been friends right from when we were both little kids.
"Jessica is fine mom. Why don't you call her and ask about how she's doing." I told her. Jessica is a great friend but she's not my type of a girl. She's too clingy for my liking and can be hell annoying sometimes but i don't want to pull up with someone like that for the rest of my life.
"I knew it...that you guys are a great companion. I bet there is no boredom whenever she's around"
She said excitedly. I chuckled at her remarks.
"Mom, actually... there is someone you need to know about. She's a beauty to behold and awesome. totally opposite of Jessica" i said to her even though I'm not trying to compare them, No i won't pull a comparison between them.
"Awe...you don't like Jessica"she sounds like a teenager.
"I do like her mother, its just that i don't have any intimate feelings for her"
I say sincerely. Mom became a little quiet and decided to change the topic.
"Have you eaten dinner?"
"No I haven't....I'm just planning on preparing spaghetti"
I informed her making up my mind at last.
She chuckled over the phone.
"Since morning. Sweetheart what have you been doing?"
She asked.
"Its a long story Mom, we will talk about it tomorrow when you comes back"
She agreed we talk about Mercy when she's back.
Getting off the phone i got to the kitchen to make dinner. I put on the gas, bought out the pasta and precooked it. Which we normally call parboiled. Then cooked it after washing the starch off.
