Ruby's POV
"Romeo! Come on!" I called.

"What mum?" He came down all ready, In a black jeans and a red jacket with "screw you!" Boldly written on it.

I sigh, am tired of telling him to stop wearing such clothes with inappropriate images and words, but of cause he won't listen. I shrugged it off, "I need you to stay with abuela today, she is not feeling well."

"Ugh! No! For once am not grounded am planning to hang out with Luca and the others." He said.

"They can wait, please honey."

"No! Abuela can live on her own, she doesn't need me! Why can't Gabriella or any one else go!" He argued.

"Gabriella have a date with her boyfriend Jack, Jason and Jonas are having a game today, and Camila is just a kid by the way she is going to gym classes." I blurted as I grabbed my keys. He was staring at me with his jaw down.

"What the hell mum! You can't do this. Abuela and I we're not even close! She doesn't like me around!"

"You know she's been living with you since eleven years now right?" I put my hands on my hips.

"But mum! I've got something to do!" He whined.

"Enough Romeo, your abuela's life is more better than your friends. Can't you just skip for this once?"

"N-"

"Ready?" David walked the stairs to where I was standing, he was in his business suit as usual.

"Yeah, first I'll have to drop Romeo off at Mama's."

"Kay." He grabbed my cup of coffee and Rudd sip. If not for Romeo standing right here I would've scolded him or give him a clack!

"I don't wanna go." He Mumbled in Spanish.

"You have no choice." I replied in English.

"What's going on here?" David directed to me.

"Just a minor problem."

"And what is that minor problem?"

"Romeo doesn't wanna go to Mum. He has to hang out with his friends."

Romeo stare at everything except us.

"Is that true?" David's gaze dropped on Romeo who was pulling his sleeve, that's what he does when he is nervous. Which is rare.

"I just wanna hang out with friends." He said in a small voice barely audible. Whoa I was expecting him to blow off on David's face, he is fearless and extremely rude, but standing there cowardly wasn't him finally someone that can control my rebellious child. Good.

"Too bad Romeo, not today, cause you're coming with us to your grandma's. And I don't wanna hear you whine. Go wait in the car." He said softly, more like stern soft. But my little imp understood the message.

"That was great." I said monotonously.

"Kids like Romeo you gotta be harsh with them." He said.

"Come on. We'll be late for the therapist." I grabbed my coat and we went to the car where Romeo was grumpily seating.

"Come on dear cheer up." I said in Spanish. He only glare at me. I sigh.

The ride to mum was silent, I don't like forcing Ro to do stuffs for me, he has the right to have fun like all his friend but sometimes he can be really selfish, I just want him to stay with mum to run errands for her, she is sick! The doctor said it has something to do with her heart and all, am really scared to let her alone at home, but I trust Romeo, he is a difficult little boy but not heartless.
