🌹CHAPTER TWENTY - FIVE🌹

The next day Alexander and I sit by the dining table eating breakfast. Last night we talked until midnight and then we went to sleep together in the same bed, all throughout the night he held my hand and he never let go and I never let go of him.

The doors open and my mom walks inside the dining room. "Morning, love birds" She says happily. She does look better than she has done before and over the weeks she has gotten better, like me. "Morning, what are you doing here?" I ask her.

It's unlike her to come here, but then again she has to check upon me every single day to make sure that I was all right and safe. "I come bearing gifts" She says as she sits down next to me and hands me a bag that she was holding on that I did not notice she had before.

I smile as I take the bag and open it. My jaw nearly drops open when I see my laptop in the bad. "Since now you're feeling better, I thought that it would be best if you'd finish your novel" She says and I smile at her. "I can't even count the times that I've read it and each time I did, I felt closer to you" She says.

I put the laptop on the dining table and welcome my mother into a hug with a smile on my face and water in my eyes. I remember that I had asked her to read it but I did not think she did and now she told me that she has read it so many times.

It makes me feel honored that she would read it. "I for one can't wait to read the ending" She whispers into my ear. "Thank you" I tell her within a smile. She doesn't know it but she has made my day much better than it had been and it had been pretty good so far.

"Please, eat with us" Alexander says and for a moment I had forgotten that he was even here at all as he had not even said a word since my mom came in here. "That was always the plan" She jokes as she starts to put food on a plate that she took, a plate that was meant for fruit but she took it for herself.

I lightly shake my head as we start eating and I'm so happy that my mom did bring my laptop. With everything going on I had forgotten about the fact that I was writing a novel before. Sure, it was in the time that I was betrayed and was feeling horrible about everything and everyone but I still have passion for it and I long to start writing again.

While eating my mom had taken my hand and held it tightly which I did not mind since I like holding her hand and after everything that had happened, I know she likes holding my hand. "I was planning on going shopping today, want to come with me?" She asks me as she looks at me.

I smile at her with a kind smile as I nod my head. "Nothing would make me happier" I tell her and she smiles at me. "Well, I can think of a thing or two" Alexander says with a smirk that makes us both glare at him with a playful glare. "Ah, yeah, and what is that?" I ask him, raising an eyebrow at him.

"Marrying me of course" He says and winks at me while I shake my head and rolling my eyes. He's still on that. "Shall we go?" I ask my mom who's laughing at us. I'm not even going to try to say something back to him, knowing that I would want to say something smart but I'm holding back my tongue.

"Yes, we shall" She says but I notice that she looks at Alexander with a look that I can't tell what is. We stand up and as much as I would like to go into our room to write right about now but I want to spend time with my mom. We haven't had much time to spend doing something fun.
