By his side

Chapter: 8

Mia's P.O.V:

"It's such a beautiful morning, isn't it?" I asked myself and stretched as I got up from my sleeping position and sat on my bed from one amazing 'undisturbed' sleep.

"You should say afternoon honey." Mom's voice boomed in startling me. I saw her standing near my room's door with a laundry basket in her hand.

"Jeez mom. You scared me," I said keeping my hand on the chest and she chuckled looking at my scared expression.

She really did scare me. I totally didn't expect her to be in my room when I wake up.

"What do you mean by afternoon isn't it like-" I opened my eyes wider to find the clock which was lying on my table, brushing my hand through my messy hair I looked at my watch to see the time. "Sheesh, its 2:00 pm already?" I asked her not believing if it's the actual time.

"Yes it is." She said rolling her eyes.

"Damn, I overslept but who cares. It's Saturday today." I mumbled rubbing my eyes.

"Anyways mom, what's up? How come you are in my room?" I asked her while I got out of my covers.

Ahh I already miss the warmth of it.

"I just came here to collect your laundry. I thought I'd do it before we leave." She answered while picking up my top that fell down from the basket.

"We?... Are we going somewhere?" I asked, not understanding what she was saying.

"Oh. I mean me and your dad. I was going to tell you yesterday night but it slipped from my mind. Your dad and I are going out in an hour for an event held that your dad's boss is holding in his farmhouse. We will be returning home tomorrow evening as it is a bit far from here." She explained and I frowned.

"What? You are going in an hour and you are telling me this just now. You should have told me last night mumma. Why didn't you wake me up? What if I wouldn't have got up now and--"

"Baby, I am sorry. I know what you were going to say so before you start arguing about it let me tell you that we weren't planning to leave without telling you so don't worry. I was going to wake you up earlier but I didn't because I knew you'd go all bonkers on me saying 'how could you wake me up from my amazingly peaceful much needed weekend sleep'" She cut my rambling and answered to my unasked question, more like I didn't get to ask as she cut me off and said the last part mocking me.

Ahh my mom knows me really well ..but this is not an excuse.

"I know this is not an excuse but your dad stopped me as well saying 'don't wake my baby girl up. She needs sleep after a hectic week'". She answered the question that I didn't even ask and this time she said the last part mocking my dad. Awe my sweet dad, he is the best!!!

"Ugh fine." I groaned but from inside I was happy thinking that I'll be having the place for myself for almost the whole weekend.

I smiled as I thought I could call the girls to spend the night today. It's been three days since we had a girl's night at Eva's place. It's been three days since I am asking myself the question which girls asked me that night.

To be honest, I didn't think about it much though as girls told me to stop thinking about it too much and that I'll find answer to it as time passes.

I wanted to talk about this whole thing with Aaron as well but the last two days got all of us really busy in college, catching up on the assignments and stuff. All of us barely got to talk though even if we shared classes.
