FREEN'S POV

My mom was as angry as it could get. She won't listen to me. And what is she talking about me leaving the house?

Those words have never been uttered by her not even when I left home and returned after two days when I was a teenager.

Was she really this angry with me? She went inside a room really pissed off.

I also went into my room. I wanted to give her some space. The facts remain that she will need time to come in terms with my relationship with Becky.

I laid down with my back on my bed thinking about how to convince my mum about Becky. I was thirsty so I went downstairs to get water.

On my way back to my room I heard cries coming from my mother's room. I could feel the sorrow, pain, anger, hatred, disappointment and regret coming from her cries.

The bitter taste of tears elicited a pang of regret. This regret wasn't because of my relationship with Becky but it was because of how my actions hurt my mother.

I didn't know when tears started rolling down my cheeks.

I ran to my room and cried my eyes out that evening and all through the night. I didn't even call Becky who I promised to call.

When we departed from the airport, I told Becky that I'd talk to my mom after which I'd call her and tell her how things went, but I didn't.

Becky must be really worried sick about me.

My mom was the reason why I didn't want to go public, so becky knew that I would have a hard time convincing her.

And the fact that I haven't gotten back to her would just make her more worried. But Becky's worries were the least of my problems right now.

I didn't even remember that I told Becky I would call her neither did I notice how fast time went by. I was too busy thinking about how I turned out to be a disappointment.

After an entire night of crying, I slept off during the early hours of the day. I woke up late in the morning around 11:00 feeling a bit sick.

I sluggishly walked to the bathroom and freshen up. I was hungry and so I went downstairs to the kitchen.

I saw my mum in the sitting room and greeted her several times but she didn't respond and so I went to the kitchen.

There was nothing to eat in the kitchen. I checked the pots and even the refrigerator but they were all empty.

I saw some dirty dishes in the sink which had just been used. This means she intentionally made food for herself and didn't include me.

This is a woman that makes food prior to my return home from a trip so that I don't get hungry.

Yet she intentionally didn't make food the previous night and this morning knowing fully well that I'd be hungry.

Since there was nothing to eat and I was starving, I decided to order take out.

I sat down there in the sitting-room adjacent her when suddenly there was a knock on the door.

I thought it was the deliveryman but I was surprised to see Becky at my house.

What is she doing here?

This is the worst time for Becky to have visited. But then I remembered that I had a flat battery  the previous day and I haven't charged my phone.

I didn't know what to do. I was just so confused. I stared at her and turn back to look at my mum.

I couldn't tell Becky to go back home because that would be rude and so I let her in.

The moment my mum saw Becky, she became furious. She stood up from where she was and went straight to Becky pushing her out of the house.

My mom was so aggressive towards Becky that Becky fell to the floor.

I was dumbstruck. I couldn't even help Becky up.

I didn't even have to tell Becky. She already knows my mom's stance and how the talk with my mom went.

My mum forcefully dragged Becky up from the floor and pushed her out of the house.

She didn't even allow Becky to say a word. And I know that this hurt Becky so much that she started crying.

I love my mom and I mean I love her so much but...

I couldn't watch her being harsh with my lover. I took Becky back into the house which made my mum angrier and surprised.

She never thought I would ever go against her and frankly speaking I never thought I could do that but she had push me to the wall and I had to fight back.

If not for myself at least for my lover whom I could see was hurting so much.

I went back into the house with Becky and pleaded with my mom again to let us be together.

"Mummy, what do you hold against Becky? I mean, I get it that you're looking out for me but I just don't understand why you treating Becky this way.

What is that flaw that Becky has that would make you not accept her?

Mummy have never wanted something in this life that you didn't approve of.

I always check with you before doing anything because I love you and because your approval is the only thing that matters to me but why can't you just accept this one thing that I'm asking of you.

Why can't you just accept the fact that Becky makes me happy and I want to be with her.

Please mummy!  please just let Becky and I be together.

Please give us your blessing I can't move forward without it so please mummy! please for my sake accept Becky" I said trying to reason with her.

"I tried allowing you to be under my roof and then you go and say this rubbish out of your mouth. FREEN!!! just get your belongings and get the hell out of my house this instant"

my mom said being as angry as it could get.

"If that is the price I'd have to pay to be with Becky, I am ready to pay that price" I said and angrily I went upstairs and started packing.

Becky begged me to stay and reason with my mom but I was too angry.

I didn't like the way she treated Becky and I wasn't going to stand for it.

She would come to her senses once she realised that Becky is everything I have ever wanted and so I took some of my belongings and left the house with Becky.
