A LOUD MUSIC blaring across the room, awoken me from a slumber sleep. I don't know if Jackson did it in purpose to get me to wake up or not. I grunting as I throw the cover off my body and jump out of the bed, the goosebumps across my body as my feet touch the cold surface of wooden floor. I have to catch a train to back to home, I take a shower instead on confronting to Jackson, will be such time wasting thought.

A nice fifteen minutes of warm shower washing of the late stress. I have a quick packing for a full week with my parents. I'm still recovering, I haven't a hundred percent alright, I somehow still could feel a massive headache in the back of my head. I still hallucinating sometimes, I hear someone whispers in my ear sometimes, and I tend to imagine someone that I never know or meet or I even don't know who.

"Jackson, I'll leave now" I said as I saw him in kitchen. "Oh, do you want me to drop you to train station? I'm going to hospital, too" He said and put his already used mug on the sink.

"I'll be waiting in the car" I said and turn around. I take the car key from the table before walk out the room with my small suitcase.

I don't know if our arguments will effect this much, Jackson barely talk or even look at me. The ride to stations is silent, no one is dare to talk. He don't even say anything before I heavily slam the car door. What's the problem with me seeing my parents? He's not my boyfriend, why bother?

The next train to Holmes Chapel. I take my phone out to inform Mom that I'm coming over. The first ring come, the second ring come, and a sweet voice come. "Hello, Chris?"

"Hi mom, I'm in train station right now and i feel like i should inform you that I'm planning on stays for a week or so, is it okay?"

"Oh honey, it's your home, you're free to come and go. You always welcomed, do you come with Jackson?"

"Sadly no, we're in argument yesterday and I think my words effect him. Likes he avoiding me now whatsoever"

"Chris, honey, he just look out for you"

"I know mom, you know we'll talk about this as soon as I'm get there anyway, I'm going now"

"Alright hun, I'll be there in the station for you"

"Alright mom, love you"

"Love you more hun, bye-bye"

"Bye" I said and hung up, I make my way to the entrance with a Starbucks black coffe.

***

I make my way out of the station, trying to get a glimpse of Mom.

"Chris!"

I turn around, to see Mom in her housewife typical dress with designers black coat hugging her small body. My smile widen when I see a bouquet of light pink color of roses.

"Thank you Mom," I said as i take the scent in, it's smell nice. "I miss you Mommy" I said as i embraced her in a missed loving arms. "I miss you too hun" her voice is cracked in the end makes me hug her tighter.

"Let's now, hun"

In the car, there Christmas songs sang, it's nearly Christmas in four days and my birthday in three days. I've never been Christmassy person, but since I'm going to celebrate it with my family of course I will. "Are you hungry?" Mom asked out of blue, hungry? Not really, my head somewhere else. "Yeah, sure" I simply answer, Mom rambling about a diner close to Dad's office said he could've join us so it'll be surprise since he didn't know I'm coming over.

The diner is kinda packed, "Did we have to queuing?" I ask as I slam the door closed, and Mom shakes her head. "No need hum, there always place for us three" She warmly smiled, and took my hand with her as she push the door open.

"Table for three please, Kendra hun"

Guess people know each-other here, since it's small town. The Kendra girl smiles before leading us in a table just in middle of table's row. She hand us menu, we order our drinks.

"What actually happen between you and Jackson, hun?"

"He just don't understand, I want to see you but he is like come in between. He doesn't want me to leave so he said he could watch me over. He need to see his patients, he can't just stay at apartment" I heavily breathes. Mom looked at me sympathetically, I don't like that kind of look.

"Maybe he just want to be around you hun"

"It's not that mom, I don't want to be treated like a child. I'm not, I'm grown women"

Kendra come with our drinks, "Have you decide on what you'll order?" Her voice is nice, and friendly. She shots me a warm smile, "I'll have Mac and Cheese please" I smile. "I'll be have a slice of the dessert on the showcase please, Kendra hun" Mom said, before adding, "And a Burger please."

"I've text your dad and he'll be here shortly" She informs and I nodding my head. "Are you and Jackson is dating?"

My eyes widen because of sudden question, "What? No" I rolled my eyes, "Oh? I thought you are, cause the way he look at you and stuff, it's makes me believe that" She apologizing and I shrugged.

"I'm not seeing him that way Mom"

"How long since you've been single, Chriseve?" Mom another question caught me off my guard, "I don't know," How long I've been single? I don't know.

I excused myself to restroom, I look at mirror to see my old boring self. My brown eyes bigger, my cheekbones shown more, my nose smaller, my lips bigger. I see I no longer have my big body, it's like I'm smaller than what I used to be.

What happen in past that I forgot, what a memory from past that I don't remember?

I splashed water on my face before going back to the booth. I see dad sat next to Mom, a smile creep upon my face and sneakily walk to surprise him.

"Dad!"

"Chris! Oh my, what are you doing here?" I hug dad before kiss him in forehead.

"I think I'll celebrate Christmas with you guys so I'm decided on take a break from London, if you don't mind" I explain as i take a seat in front of him.

"Oh don't be silly, sweets, you're welcome in your home" Dad sweetly smile.

We talking till it's kinda dark outside, I met dad colleague's wife, Mrs. Anne Twist, said it's been too long since she last saw me, and I'm blank myself not remember when the last or first time I meet her.
