Bad Girl (On-going)

Chapter 6 (Make-Over)

As soon as I arrived in my condominium, I immediately parked my car in the basement and went into my unit.

I tossed my bag in bed and went into my bathroom; I needed to do my thing.

After several minutes, I went back into my room.

I was going to change my clothes when the telephone rang, so I answered it and went into the balcony.

"Hello?"

When I heard her voice on the other line, I was so delightful. She never broke her promise.

"Mom!"

I was so alive to the extent that I wanted to jump.

"I missed you, sweetie."

I felt like I wanted to cry, thinking that she's far away from me.

"I missed you too, Mom."

"You seem depressed, what happened?"

"I just missed you. I'm so glad that you never broke your promise."

"Of course, my dear... By the way, I had deposited money in your account. You can use it to unwind yourself for a bit 'cause I know that college is not that easy to deal with.

I had separated your money for next month. It's for your school fees and for the unit."

Mom really knows what's best for me and I couldn't stop myself from feeling this guilt inside me. It's like a fire; It kills me.

"Thank you so much, Mom." I said, sounding like a crybaby.

"Are you crying?"

I wiped my tear and composed myself.

"Tears of joy"

I am happy that I still have my Mom.

I know that I can live without my damn Dad, but without my Mom, I think I couldn't spend a single second of my life. I owe her my existence.

"Since we have a lot of time today, why don't you tell me about your college life? How is it going? Did you find a special someone who inspires you a lot?"

Mom has never changed. I know that it has been hard for her to move on after Dad left us, but she didn't get tired of talking about those things.

"School is fine Mom," I answered shortly.

"Hey, you haven't answered the rest of my questions. Why is that so?"

Mom is acting childish again.

"Mom, didn't I told you before that I hate talking about those things?"

"I know, but come on... it was a long time ago when your ex-boyfriend left you, haven't you moved on already?"
