A ringing phone woke me up, I barely even moved because Arlett is gonna woke up if he hears a blood rushing through my veins, yep, she's not a heavy sleeper.
I carefully answered the phone, "Hello? Who is this?" I asked. "Hello honey, it's your mom. I'm here with Henry and we're gonna be visiting your house today." It's mom.
"Oh, uhm what time do you think you'll get here?" I asked slightly keening voice.
"in about 2 minutes I will be in your doorstep."
WHAT?! I immediately wake Arlett and told her to dress up, and she's still not in this world so I hold her shoulders and shake her.
"Arlett get dressed up mom is gonna be here in two minutes." I look for my clothes, and get Arlett to dress formal.
Mom likes things organized and my house is a mess, there's pizza and beer everywhere and so much mess and I don't know where to start cleaning. I grabbed a big blanket, and wrapped the whole mess up then I heard the doorbell ringing and Arlett panicked and asking me what should she do. I told her she should calm down it's just my mom, "why are you okay?" she asked.
"What me? You kidding? Oh I am terrified." Then I opened the door.
Poseidon runs after mom and greets her with her wiggling tail, she hugged Poseidon "Oh what a good boy." She looks at Arlett, Arlett is wearing a big gray shirt and a short shorts. Arlett standing tip toes Mom looks at her from head to toe, "You must be Arlett the painter"
"And you must be Mrs. Steiner, the mom of Nathan" she smiled and they hugged each other. Mom drags Arlett to the living room to talk stuffs and Arlett looks at me and said "She likes me." She winked me and continues to talk with my mom, I helped Henry with their baggage.
Henry is handing me this big furniture home-made chair he made and I quickly run to mom and Arlett, "Uhm mom can we talk about uhm... things?" Henry followed me and brought this chair "Why honey? What's going on? Everything, okay?" Mom asked. "Nothing I am just giving this chair to Nathan and he runs." Arlett and mom looked at me and ask what's wrong with that. I mean what's wrong with that? I don't like it. But Arlett took it and made it her chair for working. It's not very comfy she said, "But it does the work."
I showed them where they're going to sleep and mom asked to not close the doors to prove their integrity that they will not interfere with our business. Even on bathrooms.
Harris and his family also come over at our place.
They spent time on the backyard swimming, and I spent mine reading book. "CANON BAAAAAALL" And a splash of water as Henry hits the water. I kind of slept a little bit and mom woke me up, and she seats beside me and I leaned in to her shoulder, "I'm so glad I finally met her. It really means a lot to me." She said.
After lunch Arlett, Sophia and mom asked us to leave the kitchen because they're going to do the dishes and to have their own little girl time. Mom showed pictures of my childhood to Arlett.
Harris hands me the baby which is I am terrified to hold. I mean it's a monster for me, like I don't want to have something like this, I carry this baby and looks at it's face and there's a ticklish feeling in my spine. I mean look at this monster, those little big monster eyes, little crooked monster teeth. I know he's so little to be accused a monster but this thing it's just scary. Watching this thing eat it's scary. My heart beats fast. Babies are monsters.
I got to my room to read because they're getting loud. And I really need to finish reading the book. Arlett comes after me and took a bath, After she's done she told me that mom's going to teach her how to cook spaghetti "Oh that sounds nice" I said. "She told me it's your favorite. And it's gonna be great." She dressed up and kisses me, and goes to the kitchen excited.
As the day turns dark Arlett and Henry came with the idea to form a bonfire at the backyard Henry and mom is seating the east side of the bonfire and Harris and Sophia seats in the opposite side of them, Me and Arlett is seating on the north side, we sang along Bohemian Rhapsody, Henry kept feeding Poseidon
Bacon
Henry: "So, Arlett, did you go to art school?"
Arlett: "No, I didn't train formally. I just sort of picking things up here and there."
Henry: "That's right. Just do it. You learn more that way, eh? I mean, look at Calving, eh. Rgiht hijo-mijo. Ha-ha-ha" And he hands Poseidon a bacon again.
Me: "Henry could you stop feeding Poseidon? He doesn't like it. It'll upset his stomach."
Henry: "Oh don't worry. Dogs likes people food, eh" Useless yoda.
Mom: "I used to paint when I was young." She looks at Arlett.
Arlett: "Did you? Nathan never told me."
Harris: "Welp. Father couldn't approve it because it was porn. Nudes. In position. Basically Porn."
Henry: "I think it is very sexy Harris."
Mom: "Henry's been encouraging me to continue it."
Henry: "You should do it again, mama. You're very good at it." As he kisses mom's hands.
Arlett holds my hands and looks at me and holds my cheeks and kissed me, "Aww, you guys look beautiful." Mom teased. "I propose a toast for the both of you. For happy endings." And everybody said raised their glasses "For happy endings." Maybe there's not a real Happy endings nor Sad endings. Maybe it's just The End.
Henry: "Hey Harris. Do you wanna see my impression of Poseidon?" He holds Poseidon's face and makes this emotionless face, and everyone's buying it.
Harris: "Oh that was classic." He laughs.
Sophia: "That makes me laugh"
Henry: "Do you wanna see my impression of Poseidon when he is really angry?" And he did that face again. This is ridiculous.
Sophia: "That's so wrong"
Henry: "he's an intellectual" Everybody laughs.
Me: "Hey don't make fun of Poseidon."
Mom: "Hey honey it's okay calm down. Here take this, to free up your mind" She hands me a beer
Henry: "Oh no, he don't need it. His mind is already big and clear."
Harris: "Oh yeah, his mind. It's so big he can just woosh" He waves his hand like it was magic. "It's so big what he's thinking he can just poof."
Sophia: "Honey what are you saying?"
Me: "Well okay, that's it, I think you had enough beer. Let me take you to your bed."
I took Harris to the sofa, I thought he's really gonna expose our secret.
