THE BOY IS MINE

Part 11: CHANGES.

It is a sunny Saturday morning fit for some outdoor activities and be around people.
Jordan, Thomas and Rose decided to have some lunch at the mall and show Jordan around as well.

But Thomas has gone back to work already and he left them at the mall to continue with their shopping for Jordan right before he starts with school in two days time.
He is really excited about these little changes and he cannot even hide it, it's as if he is finally living his dream as young man. The dream of having good education, starting afresh and will probably start making friends as well and live a normal life.

Rose: We got your school uniforms, your stationary and a few clothes for you. So what else are we missing?
Jordan: I need a new hair cut, it's time that I shortened this hair and maybe add some colour to it I don't know.
Rose: What colour would you like?
Jordan: Red.. I want a german cut tinted red. Sounds good to me.
Rose: In that case then we should find a good barber for you.
Jordan nods and then they continue to walk side to side checking out the shops that they pass by.
Rose: That would look good on you, maybe a little colour would do you great you wear so much black clothes for a handsome boy Jordan.
Jordan: I love black clothes and besides sometimes it is not necessarily black clothes but just dull and also nude colours....just nothing bright. And that blue is too bright for me.
Rose: Oh I see... Let's just move along then.
He nods walking with her and with his eyes checking out the place.

Jordan: Rose..
Rose: Yes dear?
Jordan: Don't you think that Dad is being unreasonable for not wanting to buy me the motorbike?... Or was I asking too much of him?
Rose: You heard for yourself that he doesn't mind buying a motorbike because he can afford it but he just won't buy it for you because he doesn't want to have his son using it as a transport, bikes are not really safe.
Jordan: Bikes are safe just as long as a person doesn't speed up when riding it. So Rose please help me make him understand that I really need it, please please please Rose.
Rose: Your Dad just doesn't want to lose you again dear, especially through death it would really kill him because he would be the one responsible for buying you the bike. Please understand where he is coming from and give him a little time, he still needs some convincing.
Jordan huffs and then nods.
Jordan: Arg fine then, I will give him the time to think about it. I really want the bike and not one of his cars. I want something unique because I am unique as well.
Rose chuckles at that.
Rose: Try to forget about the bike for now and start focusing on your shopping because we have so much to cover for you since we only have tomorrow to get you prepared for school on Monday.
Jordan: Then let's find a barber quickly and get me that red German cut shall we?
Rose: Ow yes that's the aim.
