I am so sorry for the long wait. this chapter took me 22 days to construct, maybe because I am not yet a parent to explain the hurt nor a child abandoned to feel the pain.
But there I made it. The next chapters will be a hell lot of a roller coaster so stay tuned and please vote, follow, share and enjoy reading.
THANKS MUCH from my aching heart (haha)
Love lots,

CHAPTER TWENTY NINE : NINA
"To Love is to be vulnerable..."
"Are we just going to sit here?" I whispered the words because we've been quite likemute for an hour now. He still didn't make any sound, when I looked at him, he has this deep look in his eyes, a look I can't explain if it's longing or madness. His face is tranquil and holds no emotion, even his lips,
"Hon," I tap his hand that is resting on his lap,
"Don't." I flinch as he spoke the words, why is he so grumpy? I stare back to her, to the woman whom we are staring at for almost an hour now.
"Your issues will never be resolved if what you did in the last three months is to just stare at her!" I am seriously exasperated now, for the last two days that we've been talking about his mother I never thought he's not man enough to face the woman who delivered him to this world. I understand the pain and hatred he has because his mother abandoned him, but to just stalk your own mother and never got the chance to straighten up all that has been broken, I don't think he's man enough after all what's the sense of stalking her?
He sighed so heavily, I still got my eyes on Nina, but I am not mad at her, I wanted to talk to her so bad, to know her.
"Don't start with me about her again," but he still has his eyes on her,
"Then what's the sense of brining me here? I know that you are blessed with the stalking expertise but can you just man up!?" his fists are balled on his lap and I just don't care, he's being so coward,
"What about I go out there and talk to her and told her how lily-livered her son has become!" I didn't let him stop me because as I am pestering him I am unbuckling my seat belt as well.
He can cuss on me all he wants but never will I step back to his car, since the car is parked a block away from where Nina is selling her goods, I take my time to blend with the people at the market, she looks so happy attending to her customers who seemed to know her, I take cautious steps upon reaching her, she looks younger than I expect, a lovely lady I must admit.
