Mother's day Sunday may 14, 2017

Eva's POV

Today was mother's day and I didn't really celebrate it. Now that I knew my biological mom was deceased it made me really not want to celebrate it, but I chose to keep a smile for the sake of my adoptive mother.

I grabbed my phone on the dresser and dialed my mom's number to wish her happy mother's day.

"Hey Eva! How's my amazing daughter?".

"Great. Happy mother's day to the best women on the planet".

"Thank you! When are you coming down I miss you?".

"Soon. Real soon!".

"Okay cool. Guess what babe?".

"What?" I guessed.

"I'm going out with your dad tonight. He insisted he take me out for the sake of mother's day".

"Wow. You guys haven't talked in months. After the divorce you guys kind of just been distant and Now he wants to take you out, I wonder why?".

"Because I'm sexy as hell. Eva you got a young and fine ass mom, look how you got so beautiful, totally all from me".

"Yeah right" I joked.

"Don't yeah right me. Shit I'm the one that's going to be gripping the sheets tonight. You know your dad still wants me, he can always get this pu-".

"Mom!" I yelled.

"Ooh girl I was about to get started. I'm Sorry baby girl".

"You were about to go in on your sex life. Honestly that's your business and only your business".

"Yeah true. Well thanks for calling me stinker I'm going to finish getting myself together and all sexy for daddy. I'll call you and let you know how it went. Love you Leigh".

"I love you too mom".

I hung up the phone and lied across my bed, but soon interrupted when my doorbell rang. I ran downstairs to answer it and bryson was at my door, his face not clear and full of life; it was puffy, Like he's been crying for hours.

"Baby what's wrong?" I asked, wiping his face. He just shook his head.

"Baby something is wrong. What is it?" I asked once again. Instead of answering me he just shook his head again. I grabbed his hand and lead him into the house, making our way to my room. Once we got into my room I sat him down on the bed.

"So are you going to tell me what's going on or are you going to be stubborn and not tell me".

All of his tears ran down his face and it made me want to cry, I've never seen him like this before. I sat on his lap and looked at him. "You can tell me anything". He shook his head, "babe-I-I I miss my mom".

The moment those words slipped his mouth I just cried.

"I know" was the only words I can say.

"Can you tell me something different. Everyone keeps saying they Know. Like do you really know" he spoke in frustration.

"I'm sorry. I-um I'm here for you through anything. You miss your mom and I completely understand that, you have every right to miss your mom".

"I think I just need to visit her you know".

"Yeah, that's great. I think that'll help a lot" I agreed.

"But I don't want to go alone. I don't think I'll be able to handle it alone" he cried.
