NELINA
"Hi, Aunt Melissa," he walked close to mom, handed the flowers, and then kissed mom on the cheek.
"Thank you, Royce. These are beautiful." Mom said, a smile not leaving her face. He did win my mom's heart.
"Of course, they're beautiful just like you and Nelly," he said the latter as he glanced at me.
I was delighted, but I tried to hide it from him and I ended up giving him a forced smile. He winked at me when mom wasn't looking. Oh, God, he obviously knows how to charm a woman. My face heats up seeing his simple gesture.
"Thank you, Royce. Please have a seat; I'll prepare the cake I bake for Nelly."
"Yes, I also have a mini cake for Nelly. I'll just put it here so that we can eat it." He placed the cake box on the center table and drew near to dad sitting in the wheelchair.
