''Can I take this one too'' Maya asked me out of nowhere pouting. She was holding a bag of extra hot Cheetos, like seriously she just took two of those spicy hot Doritos and now this. I gave her a look but she just deepened her pout while making her famous puppy eyes, actually-

"Please please I swear this is the last one, I won't buy any chips til next month, promise" she showed me her pinky finger waiting for me to intertwine our finger. I really wanted to buy her that but I have only $100 with me and I have already bought alot of things which will last til next month. But then again I can't just refuse her puppy face and pinky finger. So i narrowed my eyes and intertwined our fingers and looked for some toilet peppers.

"Wait- does it mean I can get this" she shouted, actually I had already walked away from her so that's why she was shouting now.

"Yes" I answered and continued looking for toilet papers while pushing the cart down the aisle, but suddenly she came running to me.

"Now what?" I asked her lazily while checking the cart for if I was missing something. She just shook her head.

"No I was just putting this in the cart" she put the Doritos in the cart and left. I kept looking when out of nowhere someone griped my legs tightly. I would have screamed if I hadn't seen the small kid looking up at me with his big shinny teary eyes. He was so small, maybe two or three years old.

"Mommy~~" he kept crying while griping my legs tighter. Omg what should I do, he must have lost his mother in this enormous store. I quickly crouched down and took his hands in mine while I wiped his tears with my other hand.

"Shh don't cry baby, tell me what happened?" I asked him gently, and surprisingly he stopped crying sooner than I thought.

"You are mommy" he pointed at me now smiling, omg he was so cute smiling with his big shiny golden eyes.

But the last time I checked I wasn't his mother nor anyone's mother for that matter, then why is he calling me mommy.

"Whose mommy baby?" I asked him in a baby voice. I loved babies and talking to them always made me happy. That's why I wanted to be a pediatrician.

But this boy he was so cute and somehow he looked so familiar. You know that kind of familiar, when you feel like you have known them for years but you are also sure that it's impossible.

"Meee~" he trailed the word and now I was more than confused, me and his mother. But how's that possible I never had a boyfriend nor husband then how- 'Wtf forrest what are you thinking focus on the baby, even if you had baby would you not know that? dumb' my subconscious told me, you know she can be very smart sometimes, of course i would know if I had a baby.

"Mommy~" the boy said in a loud voice snapping me out of my weird world. He was crying again, what happened now?

"What happened why are you crying. Have you lost your mommy?" I asked him at last. His golden eyes were shinning more than ever, you know I think they are definitely shinier than my future.

"You r mae mommy~" he kept crying while saying it. "Why you.... n..not... go home w...with me?" He kept asking me while he hiccuped. I couldn't just look at him crying so I just hugged him to my chest and patted his head.

"It is okay don't cry" I ran my down his smooth black hair and tried to look here and there for his mom. Maybe he has mistaken me for his mom.

I broke the hug and wiped his tears. "Now baby boy tell me, what is your name?" I yet again asked in a baby voice and pinched his cheeks, not too hard though.

"My name is Ethan" he replied while touching my hair. He was so cute and beautiful, I just couldn't describe it. He kept touching my hair and face.

"You are so beautiful mommy, daddy will like you" he said with a look of admiration. Oh God he was so small yet he could still make full sentences. He talked like a grown up boy. But I still don't get why he kept calling me mommy. I need to find his mom quick or else he'll really take me home.

I touched his cheek and smiled at him. "Ethan baby look I am not your mo-" i was abruptly cut off by a deep and masculine voice.

"What are you doing?" whoever it was but just by hearing his cold voice I felt the hair rising on the back of my neck. I quickly looked behind me to see a pair of shoes, huh? Did a shoe just talk to me? Omg! omg! I have to tell this to Maya. I have to tell her that ghosts really do exist, no wonder i had chill running down my spine-

"I am talking to you lady, are you deaf?" I snapped out and quickly turned my head back to Ethan, oh crap what do I do? The shoe is still talking and it even called me a deaf, like really, even ghost shoes are mean.

Ethan looked up smiling and ran behind me giggling. "Daddy~" he sang happily while I was still crouching down. Oh thank God he finally found his dad. I stood up and faced his dad who was standing behind me but as soon I had turned around I froze, and it looked like he froze too with his eyes opened wide.

Oh em gee! What was he? A Greek God, perhaps? No no maybe an alien cause no human could be so etheral.

I couldn't stop looking at him, I was basically drooling over him. His jet black hair, it looked so soft and smooth with a natural curl on its tips. He was so tall and lean with a body to die for, he looked so strong and tough. And his eyes, holy cow, they were so captivating and it was like I was lost in them. The color was so dazzling, amber with golden flecks.

But he quickly composed himself and cleared his throat and that small light emotion that he held in his eyes when he saw me disappeared replaced by coldness and anger. He stared- no glared at me like I had done some kind of crime. I looked at away unable to look in eyes anymore.

"Look daddy, I found mommy" Ethan interrupted our awkward silence and pointed at me. Shock could be seen in that man's face when Ethan called me his mommy, I could see he was getting angrier and started glaring at me.
