"So do you still want answer to your question?"
Wow! I can't believe Nina can be such a badass! I knew she was a tough one but this is another level. It's like she's dealing with creepy and insanely handsome guys every day. Well... it can be true, I don't know what kind of guys goes to strip clubs.
He looks surprised by something. What is he looking at?
"Is that a... a baby?"
Are you kidding me? Is he dumb or something? You can't tell a baby when you see one? Michael is a typical cute little baby.
"So you want to ask questions, ok then. Yes, this is a baby."
Nina, my goodness! That irony in your voice would end every conversation. I feel sorry for Michael when he's gonna be teenager and get this from you. Hahaha. But I believe he'll have great relationship with you because you're an amazing...
"Whose baby is THAT?! Michael's?!"
This was unexpected and sounded just like a thunder. I'm taking back what I said about him not being dangerous. This is scary as fudge! I can se his eyes are dark and his clenched fists are trembling in anger. How will Nina react? If he'd decide to attack we would be toast! And he has his men outside.. I'm freaking out now, my anxiety is rising!
I can feel a hand on my shoulder! Is he already here?! Oh God! Ah, it's Nina! It's gonna be fine, she's here, she'll handle this.
"This is MY SON and and the rest is none of your business, sir. And just for your information, it's 9:50!"
"I'm not leaving here unless I see that Michael! You're mine! He'd have to go through me to ever touch you again!"
Ouch! That's some serious threat right here. His aura is so terrifying I can barely breathe.
"If you ever dare to speak about Michael this way again I'm gonna personally ripp your head off." Nina almost whispered towards that creep and that gave me goosebumps all over my body. This is the power mothers can summon when someone threatens their kids? I never believed when they were talking about it...
"You are leaving NOW."
Another deadly whisper. What's happening? Oh Nina is unwrapping my arms I unconditionally hugged myself with and is giving me Michael. She's walking towards that guy and looks almost like materialized wrath. That guy started backing up towards the front door.
Was that a spark that I saw when she pushed him outside the door? Anyway the atmosphere is so much lighter the moment she locked the door.
"Cathy! I'm so sorry for what happened! Are you hurt? What happened?"
*Sniff* I'm crying and don't even know how. She took me to the coach, took Michael and held my hand.
"I'm fine... I don't know why I'm crying. I'm not the one who has lovesick freak on my back... Nina how you handled it was unbelievable but he might come back. He has his gang and he can smell you! I'm not scared for myself.., I'm scared! God how I'm scared!"
"Shush dearie! It's ok, I'm here and you're safe! Breath honey, deep breath in.... and let it out with all your worries... and breathe in...and out..."
She always knows what to do! She's awesome! I don't know what I would do without her! She's my safe place. Like the good older sister mine never was.
"I'm good Nina, thanks."
"I know it can be hard for you these days but I'm here if you need me. You can talk to me and if you feel unwell we will find a solution ok?"
"Yes, I know. Ever since the day I moved in I feel safe and I can get over what happened to me. I can trust people again thanks to you."
Well now that creepy guy had done some damage to what I just stated because I misjudged him.
I don't know what I would do without you Nina. What I did to deserve you? You have great ideas, you're kind, you know me and you always have my best interest in mind, you never suggest anything reckless and...
"Call Martin and ask him out for lunch."
"What???"
And here goes that 'my best interest' away!
"Nina! Are you crazy? I just survived a major heart attack and you're asking me to call upon myself another one?"
Calling Martin! She's crazy, I'm not in the state of sanity to go out, let along with Martin. What if that guy comes back? I have to tell her that I am not leaving her and Michael alone.
"He'll not come back and if Martin is picking you up he'll not do anything. He has to know more people know about us so if something happens we would have someone to call the police."
That sounds reasonable. But still, why should I call Martin? It's not that we're such a good friends and she knows it. She also knows I like him but I'm not in the mood to risk today.
"Besides, he was worried sick about you."
Winking and smiling at me in the situation like this? You're such a fraud miss!
"Hahaha. You know how to make me laugh."
And I mean it.
"Hamamamha"
Oh Michael is here too! Such a precious baby. It's incredible how calm he was. If I would know my kid will be like him I would want one right now - actually more than one. And of our he can be that awesome because of Nina. He can be one hundred percent sure his mom would beat the shi* out of anyone who would mean him any harm... I'm confident about it as well.
Everything will be ok. Nina is here. Nina knows.
"I'll call him."
If he rejects me at least this crappy day will give me the right to stay in bed the whole Sunday until Nina leaves for 'The Raveen'.
"And if I go out you're going to send me a picture of you and Michael every half an hour!"

I'm thinking about adding some more descriptions of the appearance... what do you think about it? Do you like to imagine the characters on your own or you like to be "told" how they look like? Please, let me know your thoughts 🙂
