Obsessed with you

Chapter 30

October 19th, 1996

Sebastian was walking back home. He went to his friend's house to play baseball with him. His mom called him to say she was patently waiting for her son to eat what Loren made. It looked absolutely divine she added at the end so he would come faster.

With his phone, he tried to reach Georgeta but she didn't answer. Maybe she was in the bathroom. She will call him back in few.

The first thing he did when he came home was to look at his mom. The little boy didn't find her so he called her back and this time she answered.

"Hi mommy! Where are you?"

"Loren forgot to buy milk and bacon so I went to the grocery store to buy it."

"I'm coming!"

He lived only few minutes from the store. He grabbed few things he would maybe need for school and went to his mother.

"How was your afternoon?"

"So fun! You should've come. How was yours?"

"Ah you know, I helped Loren with cooking but she forgot the milk and the bacon for tomorrow."

"She's not eating with us tonight?"

"Sadly no. Put your things in the cart and let's go pay."

He did what she asked and both left to pay their things. His mother didn't pay attention, but every male was looking at her. She was the most gorgeous woman in the world. But when Sebastian was calling her mommy, they stopped looking at her.

Sadly, their little trip to the store finished in a big disaster. Six guys with a mask in their face were robbing the cashiers. They were screaming to everybody to not move or they would shoot them in the middle of their head.

Georgeta was protecting her son the best she could do. Almost on him, she was singing in his ear to make him calmer.

"I'm scared mommy!" He whispered.

"I know, love. Stay calm and everything will be fine soon, I promise!"

Everyone was in silence. Everyone except one. They tried to make him shut it down but he didn't listen. He was asking to leave the store and give back the money they took but the only thing they did was shooting him. Obviously people started screaming and moving so they started shooting them. And to protect her son who screamed, she put herself in front of him and got shot.

After they shot the half of the people, they left like nothing happened. Sebastian asked for help but nobody was preoccupied with his moms death. Only about the money and not about it he dead people.

"Someone help! My mom got shot!"

"Come on kiddo, there's so many people who are dead. We need the money."

"Bastard! My mom died and you can only think about money?!"

"People die everyday."

Sebastian was crying. The boss was a jerk who didn't care about anyone except money. It took time to the police to come and see the mess. But for another time, nobody cared about his mommy.

Sebastian took everything that was on his mother and left to his house, alone. He called Loren and asked her to come. What did he just saw? He couldn't believe it.

"Sebastian, are you okay? You seem sad on the phone."

"Mommy... someone... someone killed her."

"When?" She was on shock of his revelation.

When Loren saw it made him cry harder, she walked to him and hugged him right. She was constantly telling him it was alright... that everything was fine.

Sebastian needed to go to the police station to tell what he saw. He said absolutely everything; from his morning to play outside to the afternoon with his friend and finish with was happened in the grocery store.

And like he was afraid of, he needed to go in a foster family but he asked to have Loren with him. He didn't give them a chance. It was that or he was alone with her and the police couldn't let him alone so they accept.

[...]

They presented over ten families in the next week. None of them corresponded to the good description except one. It was Danita and Frank. They looked really sympathetic and they said they already took care of many kids.

"I guess we will go with this one huh Sebastian?"

"But they're not mommy."

"We talked about this..."

"Okay... I guess it's fine."

He didn't pass over the fact that his mom died but he needed to have a new family to take care of him. He was packing his stuff and kept in his jacket a picture of him and Georgeta.

The couple was waiting for him and Loren to come. They let him say goodbye to his house.

"Come on Sebastian, you have a new home who's waiting for you!"

"Okay."

"You can call me Danita and him Frank."

"Okay."

Sebastian appreciated the fact they didn't ask him to call them mom and dad which would be weird. They drove to Brooklyn for an hour and they were in a cute little house. Flowers were a little bit everywhere, it had beautiful trees, they had a pool... everything to make them look richer than the rest of the neighbourhood.

The fresh air of October gave him chills so they walked fast in the house. Everything was perfect. On the door it was written "Welcome home Sebastian!" And inside it had a cake, candies and fruits. His room was green and blue.

They left and let him take some time in his new room. It was similar to the one he had with his mommy.

"I promise mommy, when I'll have enough money, I'll buy our house."

He put the picture on the desk close to him before to take his clothes and put them in the closet. When he was doing that, he felt a clothe that wasn't to him... no. It was the shawl of her with her perfume in it. He found her so beautiful in it. It made her glow as she ever did.

The little boy finished everything and went in the kitchen when they called him to eat. A homemade spaghetti meatball. He liked that and thanked Loren.

"You know I love cooking for you."

"You know each other since a while?"

"Yeah. I saw him growing up. Way too fast I must say."

"Wow. That's so cool."

But she was about to fired her the next month. She didn't want her in her house. Sebastian needed to work by himself.
