After series of trips to the hotel, Justin finally got all the stuff I brought here.

It took me three hours to arrange them.

I still have things in Amanda's house,but that's the journey for another day.

I love my new apartment.

It has two bedrooms,and I'm starting to wonder how much this place costs.

Everything is new here.

I'm on my way back from the store.

I went to grab some toiletries and snacks.

When I get in, Justin is on the phone with someone.

He looks at me,and smiles.

And he keeps staring at me.

I think he's on a video call

"Of course my attention is diverted,mom," he whispers. "The most beautiful lady I've set my eyes on just walked in" he says and I roll my eyes with a smile.

"Of course you can,mom"

He gets up and walks to me with his phone in his hand.

He places the phone in front of my face,and the woman on the screen smiles.

She has some makeup on,and she looks like Justin so much.

Strands of white hair are very visible,but it's all mixed up with her black and grey hair.

And beautiful.

Her hair is brown and bouncy

But something about her reminds me of Justin..

Yes,her eyes.

And her hair

When she smiles,I'm very sure this is Justin's mom.

"Hello, ma'am," I smile at her. "You're beautiful"

She chuckles at me.
"You're also very beautiful,Jessica. Justin talks about you day and night,. I finally get to meet you"

"How are you doing, ma'am?" I ask

"I'm very well, thank you dear," she smiles. "I can't wait to finally meet you"

"Same here, ma'am"

"Are you coming for the family dinner, sweetie?"She asks.

"My hand is starting to hurt,mom" Justin groans.

Justin puts the phone back in front of his face.
"I haven't discussed that with her yet,mom"

"Well,you should,honey" she replies.

I take the stuff I bought to their respective places

When I'm back,Justin is watching some TV.

"Hey,you want some chips!?" I call out from the kitchen

"Sure!" He replies

I get into the living room,and I toss him a bag of chips which he catches.

"Thanks" he replies and opens it up.

"I see you set up the TV" I say

"Yeah," he stares at it. "I'm thinking it's too small. I'm thinking of placing an order for a bigger one"

"No, it's fine"

"What if you have friends over?"

"My only friend is four and a half hours away, Justin"
