"Liam, my dear nephew!" My aunt grabs my cheeks and pinches them like I am a kid . I hold her arm trying to stop her "I am not a kid-"
"No you are still a kid to me" she says and continues to pull them
I can hear Mia giggling while sitting on the couch watching me. After a while she leaves me and asks "so how are you doing? It's been a while you have grown taller"
"I am good and I am still the same"
She steps back and examines me from head to toe and shakes her head "I don't think so, I see a difference, a change" she turns to Mia and asks her "don't you agree Mia?"
Mia squints her eyes and smirk agreeing to our aunt
Every now and then whenever aunt Lia is in the city we don't miss a chance to have a family dinner and today is the day. She is mom's younger sister, they share the same brown hair and green cat like eyes. They are 8 years apart but still resemble each other but mom has softer features then Aunt Lia who has sharp once
She just returned from a trip to Japan
"You know we saw something today" aunt says
Mia gets up from her seat and comes and wraps her arm around aunt Lia "While I was picking Mia up from her school, we saw you at a flower shop and buying flowers"
Oh no
"So who were the flowers for Liam?" Mia asks
I try to keep my expressions calm because aunt Lia can sense lie in a second "I wasn't-" she points her index finger at me preventing me from
speaking "don't you dare lie to me, I know you very well" she warnsOf Course she does. She practically raised me
"So tell me who she is?" Mia pulls the hem of my jacket
"Or who is he, you know I don't mind right? I can talk to your mother" aunt says
Oh my god what are they thinking
At the right time I see Lucas coming down , perfect timing. I call him "hey Lucas!" he raises his eyebrow at me and eyes mia and our aunt surrounding me, he catches up soon about the situation
"help me!" I mouth him but he passes me a smirk replying "NO"
"I think I am going to help mom" saying this he slips off
This brat!
Can't he help me for once
Aunt Lia and Mia are looking at me with their eyes filled with curiosity
" just a friend nothing else " I say
They both look at each other and smile like they are having some silent conversations in their minds "just a friend?" Mia grinds
