Ace Ambrose Vincent
After a long 3 hour drive I finally parked my car at my mother's house. It was around 7o'clock in the evening, time for dinner.
I went up to the door and pressed the bell. "Dinng-Donng" it rang.
I heard some footsteps nearing the door and it opened revealing my mother, smiling warmly. "Come in Ace. We were just talking about you." she said.
We... that means he is here.
We walked in and I saw him sitting on the sofa viewing his mobile. I cleared my throat yet he was still looking into that mobile. I couldn't bare to look at him.
Mother looked at me and said, "Hey, c'mon I'll show you the bathroom. You can freshen up and then we can have dinner. C'mon."
I looked at her and we went upstairs.
"Listen, please don't do this here. You may be enemies outside this house but here with me, you are my son and he is my husband and your father." She said
"He is not my father. And he was your husband. " I responded angrily emphasising on the 'was'
"No, honey-"
"Listen, ma you don't understand. He left me to die, in Italy and now when I am finally back, he cut off most of the arms supply to Ares. Why did he do that? Just because I told you that he was cheating on you? That motherf-" I cut her.
She pinched my ear and said, "You will listen to me here, boy. He is your father and you are his son. No matter what you both have done in the past. you leave it outside my house. Here both of you will act like a family. You understood?" She asked.
"Yes." I mumbled defeated.
"Can't hear you?" She asked again.
"Yes, ma."
Mother always has the last word no matter what.
"Good, now go and freshen up and meet in the dinning room." With that she left me.

Although you might be ruthless and the most powerful person in the word, mothers... their love for you and their scoldings are always stronger.
