"hello!" mrs. hemmings greeted when she opened the door for my mum and I.

"liz!" my mum exclaimed and reached for a hug. afterwards, mrs. hemmings made us lounge on their living room.

i liked the way how they hung up family pictures in walls, it looked like a timeline. i instantly spotted luke's birthday pictures and saw how puberty hit him like a missile from north korea.

he looked so gorgeous, his eyes smiling with his lips, his hair getting higher and higher each photo, and so is his height.

"macy, come on and eat." mrs. hemmings invited me. i joined her and my mum in the their dinner table. there were different choices of food prepared by mrs. hemmings. mr. hemmings sat and ate with us.

"how's family life, liz?" my mum asked. "i'm so jealous of your three boys." i started to feel like, 'am i not enough'? kidding.

"two of them are working out of town and my youngest stays with us but he's not around today." liz started and the conversation went on. i lacked interest of what they're talking about to pay much attention.

i kinda felt sad when mrs. hemmings said luke isn't around. i was expecting this night for us to meet and stuff but, it wasn't.
