" Thanks for the ride, mate! " Roland waved as he left Curt's car after he dropped him at his house.

" No problem, Ro. Don't forget we have a show next week! " Curt reminded his best friend.

Roland smiled and nodded. " Don't worry, I'll see you tomorrow! "

Curt smiled back and waved before driving away. Roland turned around and walked towards his house.

He entered quietly and was greeted by his mother. " Roland, welcome home! " she hugged him.

" Hello, mother. " he hugged her back.

His mother pulled away and asked " How was rehearsal? " as Roland took off his coat since it was chilly outside during the nights.

" It was great. We have a show next week, so we're going to practise again tomorrow. " he took off his shoes and his mother smiled at him.

" I know you know this, and I'm going to say it again, Roland. I don't want you to stop doing what you love, because I know you've been dreaming about this ever since you were a child. You have the chance to travel around the world and perform in front of millions of fans. You have grown into a handsome young man and have accomplished so many things. And I'm very proud of you. " a few tears rolled down her cheeks as she smiled widely.

" Oh, mother. " Roland hugged his mother tight. " Hearing you say those words to me makes me very happy. I thank you for all the support and love you give me. And I love you so much. "

His mother hugged him back tight. " I love you too, dear. " she whispered.

They pulled away and smiled to each other. " Are you hungry? " she asked.

A growl was heard and Roland blushed. " Um, yeah, a little. "

She raised an eyebrow at him in amusement. " A little? " she giggled as he rolled his eyes but smiled. " Don't worry, we have a lot of food, so you won't stay hungry for the next few weeks. "

" Thank you. You're the best! " he grinned and she winked in return.

" Mama knows what's best! " then, a frown appeared on her face. " Though, there is one question that makes me wonder? "

Roland's eyes narrowed in confusion. " What's that? "

She placed her hands on her hips and asked " When will I meet your girlfriend? "

The singer's eyes widened and his face became hot as he exclaimed " What?! Mother! "

She gave him an innocent look. " What? I'm only asking. "

Roland rubbed his forehead and said slowly. " I don't have a girlfriend. "

His mother blinked at him and said " But you're almost 24. Isn't there anyone who you've liked for some time? "

Immediately, Scarlet popped into his mind and his heart began to race faster than the speed of night. (A/n: Bonnie Tyler fans, anyone?) 

His face became 50 shades of red, as he tried to stay as calmly as possible. " Um, no. I'll tell you if there is. "

She blinked again and signed. " Okay. I'm sorry for asking that question, you probably didn't expect it. "

Roland smiled at her. " It's alright. "

She smiled back as she placed his meal in front of him and sat next to him. " Anyway- "

Roland looked at her and patiently waited for her to continue. 

" Will I see my grandchildren someday? "

" Mother! "
