    Walking on the streets of California, I passed so many shops and people. I make sure I twisten up a little and expect calls from all zones.

  Phone Beeps
I slide my phone out of my pocket and put up the screen. I got 21 messages and 10 notifications!

Oh crap!

  First, it's chloe.

"Hey girl! The boys and girls want to go to the restaurant. I mean, seriously Stace, Maria and Max are really growing in a romantic manner. Do you know that they were talking and watching TV so late and they slept on each other. Maria slept with her head on Max's shoulder and Max's head on her head. Sent you the pic. What about you and Alex, haven't heard from Alex. I'll call him later, take care!"

I recall the first time Maria met Max. They just were shy and unreasonable then.
No offense but, I think Max is the one for Maria. No doubt.

  My head is high up as I sit on a city bench and read the messages and notifications.

The last one caught my attention though.

My Mum!

It's been nine months since I talked to my mum! I'm such a sick and terrible daughter.

  I quickly dialed her number and she picks up.

'Hello? Mum!'
'Oh! My baby girl! It's so good to hear your voice again from the other side'

  I laugh like a little girl indeed.

'How's California?'
'We're doing great! You?'

'Can't imagine such happiness!'

I laughed with my mum out loud.

'How's Zee and the rest?'
'They're fine mum'

  'Oh! Sweetie, I saw a picture of you and a guy on twitter, is that someone you're dating?'

WHAT!!!!!!!

'I and a guy? Where?'

'In a restaurant. He's Name is Alek... Alejandro... A-'

'Alex. Mum, it's Alex'

'Oh dear, sounds handsome to me'

I physically rolled my eyes because it's not video call. Had it been it is, I would have been dead by now.

  'Why are you guys not taking the relationship to next level?'

'No mum, we are just friends. Nothing more or less'

'Friends? Sounds like lovers to me'

My mum have been on my neck ever since I entered the university that I should look for someone to get married to.

Speaking of the university, I totally forgot my classes!

  How can I forget such a thing. I need to take online classes! This instant!

  'Hello? Honey are you there?'

Oh no! I placed my mum in suspense!

'Yeah mum! I'm here!'

  'Oh! So when are you coming home?'

  'I still got twenty two days to stay here'

'For the rest of the month! Honey, isn't that too much? Mexico is here you know'

'I know mum, it's just...'

I really don't know what to say.

  'Cut it a little bit shorter. Say ten days'
