BROKEN

chapter 21

I know I was being over dramatic , but me being astonished and worried at the same time was worth it , cause if I would have not behaved in this way . Leslie would not have told me what she did . I am completely okay with whatever Miss. Johnson  wants to do with her life , but being her daughter makes me eligible to atleast know what it is  .  This is what parents always do , expect you to to tell them every  minute detail about our life and not telling a shit about theirs . This is not fair .

Mom has definitely dated men in past , but not for a long time now , especially after that horrible experience of ours with david . What makes me so surprise is the fact that what did she saw in Tom's father that she was ready to forget whatever happened in past and start afresh.  And why would she hide it from me . Will this make her distant from me as her past relationship did or will we remain the same . I was curious to know and I hope she is to tell .

"Les, why do you think she did all this ? "I asked les after a really long silence and was astonished as she answered .

"Maybe ...she thinks that you are the reason her previous relationship didn't worked out  "

"No ...you dont know what happened . She can never think that "

"Oh ..trust me , I do know what happened . "

"No way , she told you that . "

"Yes , she did . I know all that what happened.  And I think that she is right about david , he seems to be nice . " les muttered.

"Oh , so a murder seems nice to you . What is wrong with you les   ?  " I stood up to leave when les said something she shouldn't have.

"Yeah , doing what you do the best , run eva . "

"I was not running , les . I saw moms alleged boyfriend stealing money from her purse , and not once but three times . And when I tried to tell mom he threatened me that he will hurt her and tried to kill me . He was a murder les . How  could you even not trust  me on this . I am your bestfriend and you don't even know that guy . "

"What's your problem, anyways , with your mom's happiness.  Why can't  you just leave her on her own  and let her live . It feels like sometimes you just forget that your are her daughter and its not vice versa . " I dont know why she is supporting her so much , but there's something wrong , it has to be or maybe she has gone mad .

"She is my mom les , its just i care about her . Trust me if she decides to marry again , i will be the most happiest person alive . But i can't see her with a wrong guy . Stop panicking.  Stay out of this . Its not your matter to be concerned anyways . "

"You wanna know why I am so concerned,  eva ?"

"Sure , I would love to  "

"You remember the  night my mom died ? " She whispered .

"Yes , what about it "

"Actually that night I saw something I shouldn't have . "

" what was it "

" I saw my mom kissing someone and it was not my dad . I was disheartened and decided to confront her . I fought with her for almost like an hour and she left the house in vex .  And she never  came back , eva . What came back was the news of her not being in this world .  That's why I just want you to support your mother , no matter what for . I would never meet my mom again . I miss her . I live her .  Cause at the end of end day we care for  them . And if anything happens to them we will regret it more than anyone else. But sometimes our stubborn nature becomes so important that we just forget who they are and how much they matter to us . " she was sobbing so heavily that my anger melted away and my heart told  to hug her till her sleep.

"Your dad knows about this? "

"No, I didn't wanted to remember  his love of life with any kind of bad memories .

" I am sorry "

" les is my mom in town right now ? . "

" yes , she is . She arrived yesterday to meet ..you know . You going to meet her ? "I nodded .

Les was asleep  in less than a minute,  and I tucked her to bed and decided to meet my mama  .

"Hey , thanks for meeting me " I hugged her as soon as I reached the place . "

" why do you wanted to meet me .  ? My mom asked as soon as I seated myself .

"Uhm...cause you are my mom . Why didn't you told me that you were in the town . " I hesitated

"I was going to "

"When ? "

"I just came here yesterday and was going to call you but my phone got stolen . So  I had to  buy a new one and I am sorry to say but I didn't remember your phone no . "

"Okay , mom its decided.  "

"What ?"

"You don't know how to to lie  so dont you even try . And les told me about you dating Tom's father . And I am okay , so dont try to hide it anymore . "

"I was about to tell you , that's why I came here . I am sorry ."

"Theres no need to be , just be careful . Well ...you know why . "

"Every relationship won't be the same eva . He is good . And I want you to meet him . "

"No way I am doing that . I am okay with you dating my bestfriend boyfriend's dad , doesn't mean that I  will meet him.  "

"So what you will run from him , your entire life " she said and my calm nature died , just when I started to accept the fact of her dating again , I have to accept a stepfather and my mom's new husband .

"What do you  mean by entire life "I asked even though I know what she will say ."

"I am gonna marry him after my  divorce gets finalized with your father .  He proposed me yesterday and I said yes . "

"You are not forced to love him , but accept him for me . And even for that you can take as much time you want , eva . But please dont make yourself distant from me. "She continued seeing that I am seriously not in a condition to answer back.

"How long this has been going on ?"

"It started after a week you left . " she said and I just didn't wanted to talk anymore .

"I am not saying anything mom . I will definitely think about it and will definitely support you . Love you , mom . "

"And that idea of fake pregnancy of les was really bad . And also,  tell her she is not a good actress and she should have known how to  hide her periods well , if she wanted to fake pregnancy.  "I throw my  stupid smartness on mom and left to meet jason . I was dying to get out of  all the mess and kiss him .
