Spoiled by the Silver Fox

By the time Saturday night rolled around, she started throwing a tantrum and flopping around on her mom's bed.

Marilyn Bishop couldn't help but burst out laughing at the sight of her rolling around.

"You should be grateful. Look at how well Seb is treating you. He's staying home to keep you company while you study! You're afraid of getting scolded by the driving instructor...but with him watching, the instructor wouldn't dare to say a word! You could hit the wall and he would just gently remind you to be more careful next time... Back in my day when I was learning to drive, whenever I grazed something a bit, I would get chewed out by the instructor!"

Seb usually worked on weekends, but these past couple of days he'd been staying home with her.

She stopped rolling around, propped up her chin and said quietly, "Mom...but I'm so tired! School is already exhausting, and even on break I'm still tired..."

"What's the point of complaining to me? Seb is the one who arranged your schedule, so go complain to him!"

"Uh...I'd feel bad. Seb's been so good to me. I'd be ungrateful if I complained..."

"You're right! So, why are you still complaining? If I had a man as good as him...I'd do whatever he says!" "Haha...mom, you've changed after working for just a few days! So...any nice male colleagues at your company?" Marilyn glares at her, "Nonsense! I don't have time for that."

"Well, you can't spend your whole life dating the pair of eyes in your dreams, right? Don't you think it's a bit unrealistic?"

"I knew I shouldn't have told you about it...But, Steph, I will never find a pair of eyes more beautiful than those... They always appear in my mind. Even a god wouldn't catch my eye anymore. What can I do?" "What if the owner of those eyes never appears in your life...Can you stay a widow forever just for a pair of eyes?"
