Chapter 3

He removed her hand on his arm. “I would never be alone, Mom.” He gave her a confident smile. “Trust me, it does not mean I have not let you meet anyone yet, I’ll be alone.” He tapped her shoulder and kissed her forehead. She is the most important person in his life. He will do everything for her but not the thing about her set up date. Nobody can force him to date anyone yet. He wanted himself to choose her woman at the perfect time and perfect place.

“That’s insane, you are soon to pass the calendar’s period. I’m turning fifty-six this year, I am not young anymore. I wanted to see your kids, your wife and your life a husband. I know marriage can wait, but my age can’t wait.” Her words made him stop and stuck staring at her worried eyes. “When will you give me them? When I am sixty and I could not have gotten a chance to take care of them? To carry them?” She shook her head exasperatedly and placed the coffee cup on top of the wooden small cabinet beside them. There is some figurine on top and the cabinet was made up of oak tree.

“Mom, stop over reacting.” He chuckled. “I don’t know when but I promise to give your granddaughter before you turn sixty. Anyway, you got your age very fast but you didn’t look like fifty. Wow! You’re such an amazing woman I know. How could it possible? You looked like my age,” he teased her mother and laughed. This is his only way to stop her the argument. He does not know anything more effective way to stop her mother about it but only to tease her about her look. Though, it could be a compliment at the same time and a fact statement about her mother’s beauty. She looked younger than her age, from being fifty, she looked like forty. Everything on her look says different on her age. She still has beautiful skin. It was the good result of her mom’s effort, taking care of her skin when she was young and until now.

“Stop it, Lessan, I had seen that tactic of yours many times before.” She rolled her eyes on him and crossed her arms on her chest. “Give me a granddaughter very soon, or else I won’t stop plaguing you on a set up dinner date.” Stamping her feet on the floor, she left him on the corridor. He shook his head and shrugged his shoulder. He cannot help not to sigh. Before he met his mom on the corridor, he was planning to have breakfast downstairs, but after the conversation with her, he decided to go back his room and skip his breakfast. He walked towards the mini office inside his room. This is the place where he only met the silence, he wanted each time. This is a good place of him when he wanted to scape the world that is quite disturbing for him few days ago.
