I walked down the street facing my mom’s home as slowly as I could. It was a lively street that was named Flowers and Rues. I used to love this place. It housed most of the facilities that entice a child and the flower arrangement- was mind-blowing. It was planted by one of the past Lunas who after her death, her husband decided to give this place its name. How he came up with it is a mystery anyway.

Standing in front of my parent’s house brought many memories back to my head. It was as if I was back to being sixteen and ready to sneak into the house after spending the night out with my friends. I took in a deep breath as I opened the front door.

“Hey Mom,” I called out into an empty space. Not even one sound could be heard from the house. It was as silent as a graveyard.

“MOM!” I yelled out again. I walked into the bedroom she shared with my father and didn’t find her there. I checked the closet. I went back out to check the bathroom. I also went into the kitchen and found her phone lying there on the kitchen

counter.

Through the kitchen window, I could see a shadow cross my peripheral vision, I almost panicked until I saw the silver-kissed hair that belonged to my mother. She was in the garden while I looked for her through the house.

“Mom!” I called as I came out to the garden through the backyard. She looked up with a smile on her face as soon as she saw me. She removed the earbuds and I shook my head. That was why she didn’t hear me.

“Angela. You came,”

“Of course, I did. That b*stard brought my child back here,”

*You mean, Darius. The man of your dreams,” she replied and laughed. I gave her a bad look but soon resigned to my fate and joined her. I once believed that was who Darius was to me and to whoever cared to listen, I never hesitated to tell them

that

“I was so st*pid and gullible,” I lamented.

“No! You were in love,” She corrected me.

“yeah, st*pidly in love,” I shrugged. I took a closer look at my mom. She had lost a visible amount of weight. Her ey lost its color. She looked as if she bore the weight of the world on her shoulders. She had planted this garden with l together with my father. No matter how much she tried to pretend and c*ack jokes, I know she’s not fine.

I walked in and couldn’t find you, I thought you got kidnapped or
