"We will leave now... It's been so long... Since we were here... It's going to be night soon..." Amelia said and Valentina nodded her head at Elizabeth.
"Yeah... Val has work tomorrow too... She needs rest!" Elizabeth said and Amelia nodded her head in yes.
"When will you come here again?" Elizabeth asked Valantina making her chuckle.
"Umm... I will come again soon, Aunt Elizabeth..." Valentina answered.
"Yes... Take care, Love." Elizabeth said and Valentina nodded her head in yes as they both hugged each other.
"Eat well and sleep well on time... Concentrate on your health first... Later everything!" Elizabeth said making Valentina smile brightly.
"Yes, Aunt Elizabeth!" Valentina replied and Elizabeth kissed her forehead.
Elizabeth and Amelia hugged each other. They all Walked out of the mansion while Xavier walked behind them.
"Xavier... See you soon. Take care." Amelia said with a smile and Xavier nodded his head with a small smile.
"Yes, Aunt Amelia... You too... Take care." Xavier replied and Amelia nodded her head with a smile.
"Yes. Thank you!" Amelia said and Xavier nodded his head and looked at Valentina who just looked away as soon as their eyes meet with each other...
He took a deep breath as he saw her ignoring her from the time of their lunch... And until now, she didn't talk to him... It made Xavier heart crush seeing her not at all trying to talk to him... Even though, he is trying hard to make her talk with him but still she didn't talk to him.
Amelia and Elizabeth looked at eachother as Xavier and Valentina isn't talking with each other as they thought that something might happened between the best friends that they don't have any idea about...
"Umm... Alright... See you soon!" Valentina said as she looked at Xavier making him smile.
"See you." Xavier replied with a smile as she at least talked something...
Amelia and Elizabeth smiled at each other.
Valentina and Amelia got into their cars and drove off from the drive way...
Xavier and Elizabeth walked inside the house and Xavier was about to walk upstairs when Elizabeth called him making him stop in mid way and turn around towards her.
"Xavier..." Elizabeth called making Xavier turn towards her.
"Yes, Mom?" Xavier asked.
"Your dad isn't home yet? Did you talk to him?" Elizabeth asked.
"Ummm... Yeah... He said, he will be home late tonight..." Xavier answered and Elizabeth nodded her head.
"Umm... You are not going to Rose? She must be alone at home?" Elizabeth asked.
"Um... No... She is staying at her parents place tonight..." Xavier answerrd and Elizabeth nodded her head in yes.
Xavier turned around and was again about to walk upstairs when Elizabeth agian called his name.
"Xavier..." Elizabeth called making him stop in mid way and turn around towards him.
"Yes, mom?" Xavier asked.
"Come here... Sit with me for a few minutes!" Elizabeth said making Xavier nod his head with a smile.
Elizabeth sat down on the big couch and Xavier walked towards her and sat down beside her.
Elizabeth looked at him and frowned. She kept her hand on his shoulder making him turn towards her.
"Are you okay?" Elizabeth asked and Xavier took a deep breath and hugged her tightly making Elizabeth take a back with his sudden move but still, she hugged him by caressing his hair.
"Son..." Elizabeth said as he hugged her tightly and breathed in her motherly scent.
And she stayed like that in his arms until he felt good.
Xavier slowly moved away from her and looked at her.
"Is something wrong, Son?" Elizabeth asked and she cupped her face in her hands making him look into her eyes.
"I don't know, Mom..." Xavier answerrd as he took a deep breath.
"Come here..." Elizabeth said making him sleep on her lap.
Xavier kept his head on her lap and closed his eyes thinking about the stuff going... He so want to relax his mind but he just couldn't...
Elizabeth caressed his hair as he slept on her lap.
Suddenly, Elizabeth saw a tear falls down from Xavier's eyes that made her wide her eyes as she is shocked that what happened that made that tear falls down from his eyes.
"Xavier... Son..." Elizabeth called making Xavier open his eyes and Elizabeth saw his teary eyes.
"Son... What happened?" Elizabeth asked with a worried face as she saw his blood shot eyes.
"I don't know, Mom..." Xavier answered as another tear escaped from his eyes.
"Xavier... What made this tear fall from your eye? Did something happen?" Elizabeth asked and Xavier shook his head in no.
"No... Umm... Just let me be like this." Xavier answered and Elizabeth nodded her head as her heart started beating fast as she has no idea what made her son cry? Because without anything, the tear won't fall from his son eyes so easily...
Even though whoever in this position, she would just think that, what hurts that made him cry...
"Xavier..." Elizabeth called making him look at her.
She wiped his eyes and looked into his eyes and smiled.
"Everything will be alright..." Elizabeth said and Xavier nodded his head in yes.
"Hope so, Mom..." Xavier replied and his voice is so cracky that made Elizabeth emotional and think about his son. Because his son is not someone who will cry for nothing... He is strong for this... Something that doesn't make sense won't let him cry this so easily... There is something that made him week and made him cry... There must be some big reason that made him fall a tear from his eyes... Or else... He will neveret any tear fall from his eyes... Something must have hurt his heart so badly and she so wants to ask his son what is going on with him but she is just lost of words seeing his son cry in her lap...
"It will, Son... You shouldn't worry about anything... But I guess... There must be some reason behind your precious tears, My son... Can this mom know what is the reason?" Elizabeth asked with a hope... Hoping that he would tell her...
