"You were so bad ass there, Mama." The happy little boy says, jumping into Lola's hands after he had had enough of his 'Uncle Sebby.'

"It's only because of my baby." Lola replies.

We are in a Ford Jeep conveying us back to our quarters, I look at the both of them, I wonder how old she was when she conceived him.

"Uncle Sebby, do you know I know it was Mama when she entered, she is also so cool."

Sebastian laughs boisterously, Lola's smile lightens the whole car. I don't know she looks far less younger than she looked.

"Don't do that. Mama will get too pumpous." Sebastian tells him.

"Go on, my love. Mama knows she is cool." Lola says.

"Wanna call your Mum? She has been very worried." Sebastian says.

Your Mum? Is Lola a Lesbian? Don't look at me like that! That's the only plausible explanation I can think of rn.

"Video call, Uncle Sebby!"

He clicks his phone, and then he smiles at his screen, in sure the said 'Mum' has picked her call.

"Hi, khaddy."

"Sebastian, let me talk to my son."

"Mummy!"

"So rude!" The happy boy and Sebastian says at the same time.

He grins even wider after sitting his mother on the screen, "Mummy, Mama was so bad ass."

"You can get down now, we are back at your quarters." Lola says to me. "Here is your cloth, you can keep those." She continues, pointing to the dramatic cloth on me.

As I turn to alight the bus, Sebastian catches hold of my hand, in spite of happy boy being on his laps.

"Zendaya!" My heart trips on itself, I haven't heard that name in a long long time, the name my parents named me.

"I," he clears his throat, "I will see you tommorow."

I only nod in response, I honestly don't have the strength to argue or even simply open my mouth to answer him.

Last last maybe there will be a closure between us and his chapter will be closed forever, we will see how it goes
