AVA

"Mom me and Sofia can make lunch. You don't have to-"

"Sshh I said I'll make lunch today. " Mom forced me to sit on the stool beside the counter. I tried to stop her from making lunch but she didn't listen to anyone.

I kept staring at her while she made lunch and kept talking to me. It felt so good. After years someone was showing me some mother like love which I needed. Sometimes I feel like this house was as same as my aunt's but since mom came to visit, the atmosphere totally changed. I was able to talk to someone so freely. We even watched TV together while cutting jokes.

"Ava, what happened?" Mom asked worriedly. That's when I realized that I was crying.

"Ah that's nothing-"

"Tell me Ava. What's wrong?" Mom came closer to me and put her hand on my head.

" I'm fine mom. It just feels so nice to have someone like you by my side. "   I wasn't able to find words of how grateful I was of her.

She smiled at me. "C'mon lemme show you something." She grabbed my hand and lead me to her room.

" Sit here. " I sat on the corner of her bed while she was searching for something in the closet.

She came to me with her bag in her hand.

"What is it mom?" I asked being impatient.

"Here." She handed me a photo album.
"Open it."

I slowly opened it. The first picture was of Jungkook and his parents'. It was not so old.

"The picture was taken when Jungkook became the CEO of the biggest company in California. Though he was very young to be the CEO. "

His eyes held the same aura. His strong powerful gaze. His sharp jawline. His beautiful lips. His dark brown hair. His strong muscles. Everything about him screamed beautiful. He was so beautiful in my eyes. Just like the first time I saw him.

I smiled and turned the other page. The first thing caught my eye was a small baby, maybe age was 2-3 years, smiling so brightly at the picture. His eyes became so small because of smiling too much. I couldn't help but smile. He looked so cheerful and happy,just the way I wanted to see him. The picture melted my heart.

"Jungkook was 3 years then. I remember he used to go to fishing with his father every year. His favorite was gaming. He used to play games on phone or computer all day. I must say he was so focused when he used to play as if his life depended on it. " Mom said smiling, remembering the memories.

I smiled at her and turned another page. That was full of Jungkook's pictures when he was so young. From his kinder garden school to high school. There was a picture of him holding a fish high with his left hand beside the sea. He was smiling brightly as if he won something.

Then there was a picture of him sitting on table with so many banana milk packet around him. I couldn't help but laugh.

"Jungkook still loves banana milk. He used to cry for banana milk and no one ever dared to touch his food or milk otherwise he would scream so loud. Once he was so mad for 2 days and didn't talk to anyone because Damon hid banana milk from him." Mom said while laughing.

" Really? " I laughed at that.

I couldn't believe that cute Jungkook became this devil now. From the picture , anyone could tell he was such a gentle guy. But the reality was totally different for me.

"This is the picture from his middle school graduation. You won't believe he was too shy around girls. He always used to keep his head down. He was never that socialized. Just keeping himself company by his own. So I found out he never dated anyone, until Stella. " Her voice became cold at the end.

" To be honest I never liked Stella. I don't know what did Jungkook find in her. " She sighed and looked at me. "But now I'm glad that you came into his life. I know you can change him. You are just his type Ava. When I saw you, I knew at that instant that you both are made for each other." She smiled.

I couldn't help anymore. Tears ran down my cheeks. I instantly looked down to hide but I was late. Mom already noticed.

"Ava. I don't know what you are hiding from me. But I'm a mother too. I know a child's heart and mind. It's okay if you don't want to tell me. But just know that you are perfect for Jungkook. He is maybe too blind to see it. But be patient for him. He will prove it to you. " Saying that, she hugged me. I hugged her so tight and sobbed in her shoulder.

After a long time, I felt relief. It felt so good to talk to someone. Maybe it was the first time I cried in front of someone and that's mom. I always tried to stay strong. Never showed anyone the tears. But I couldn't help anymore.

"I'll be strong mom." The words slipped out of my mouth.

"You are strong Ava. You are the strongest. Stronger and mature than Jungkook. " She said while laughing. I laughed through my tears.

We both pulled away and I rubbed my eyes.

"I know it's too early but I want to see my grandchildren soon okay?" My eyes widened and I looked a her. My mouth widened at the same time.

"I know it's early but I know you are strong . Just imagine a young Ava or a young Jungkook running around the house."  A smile curled on my lips.

A small me or a small Jungkook. How beautiful it would be! Maybe a boy? Or a princess? It's eyes would be just like Jungkook, beautiful dark brown and strong. Smile would be like Jungkook too. Remembering of Jungkook's smile,which was hard for me to see, my cheeks heated.
I always wanted a beautiful happy family with kids. A beautiful family with the love of my life. With Jungkook. But was that possible?

An unknown tear left my eye.
