ADDAMS

"Why do you want us to go on vacation, why so early?" she questioned

"Because I want to enjoy our relationship, to be relaxed and overlooked everything to just be focused on us" I justified

"There is not a place to be happy, we can also be happy staying here, I will always be happy with you wherever we are," she said

I knew she didn't want to leave her mother alone, It was why she try to argue as she did though her mother supported me and wanted us to profit from this vacation.

"Don't understand her Addams, the only thing she wants is to stay and look after me as if I was in any dangerous situation" Mrs. Lucas sustained my cause.

We were sitting in the garden, it was already 5 pm, and we had decided to spend the major part of our day with her.

I was delighted to talk with Mrs. Lucas, every moment spent with her was an instant of enjoyment.

"Mama, you know how much I care about you, I don't want to leave you here alone" It wasn't easy to convince her from leaving her mom.

"There is nothing to fear, It will only be for a week, I don't find any worthy reason to refuse. After this week you will have all your time to take care of me" mum explained

"Isn't it?" she questioned looking at me, wincing a nodd, telling me to agree

"You are right" I immediately responded shaking my head into an approbation.

Whitney looked at us wondering about this harmony of thought, at the way we understood each other.

Thinking of the prejudices I had built against her, it was stupid to judge her at the first sight.

"Okay, I surrender" Withney sighed in abandonment

"I have thought of renting an island for the week" I expressed

"I like the idea" Mrs.Lucas agreed, she was impressive

"You will spend the greatest week you ever had" said I to Whitney with a smirk, pressing my lips against her.

She winced, however, I knew she would be happy despite her mother's loneliness. It wasn't easy to accept it but it was how life was designed.

Every child had to grow up and leave his parent's house. However everyone knew it, the separation had never been easy to handle, exceptionally for Whitney who had known her as her only family.

The Harmony of this family was what I always tried to build with my father but everything I succeeded to create was always a fight between us.

Should I tell him I was about to go for a week?
I didn't know how to behave when it came to him, the only thing he ever succeeded to do was to piss me off.

I had never known my mother, he was my only parent, he told me my mother died when she gave me birth. And during my life, I only knew the roughness with which he made me grow.

"Mom it is almost 9 pm we have to leave" Whitney expressed.

This visit had been great good for Mrs.Lucas, we spent our time laughing Whitney had a chance to have her as a mother.

"Okay be careful on your way back home and don't forget to inform me of your departure" Mrs. Lucas stood trekking with us to the car.

"We can't forget" we replied

I opened the door to let Whitney enter the vehicle before motioning to enter the driver's side, Mrs.Lucas interrupted me

"Will you tell your dad about your trip?" she questioned. She knew the situation with him wasn't as harmonized as it was between Whitney and her.

"I don't know what to do, I haven't yet made my decision. But what do you advise me if I can ask about your opinion" I demanded

"The judicious thing to do will be to inform him, you work in his enterprise. You are indeed considered as the leader but now you will be absent, tell him to assure the interim during your vacation to make sure everything goes as it ought to"
She explained, and everything was clear and wisely decided.

"Thank you, mom" with a nod I said, she flushed.

"Sorry, but can I call you like that?" I pleaded this woman showed me a great kind of love, that I didn't realize when I called her mom.

She hugged me "How can't I love you as a son with everything you did to make me happy?" she expressed emotionally

I couldn't imagine I would have called any woman like that, this family had an impact on me.

They were changing my harshness into an incredible kind of love. I didn't want to live with
another girl than her. Whitney was in the vehicle looking at this cheerful moment.

With a wave of the hand, I entered the vehicle and we drove back to the house.

"This visit was incredible, I felt as if we were a family, the family I always wish to have, nothing will ever succeed to separate us, I care about you, and this perception of life you give me"
I expressed, all these words came deeply from my heart.

"Can you imagine, I called her mom? it was my first time calling someone like that, she won a huge place in my heart" she taped on my lips, following every word I uttered. She wondered about my assertion.

"Have you never called someone mum?" she asked, her blue eyes wide open.

"Never. I have never known my mother, my father told me she trespassed when she gave birth to me" I expressed, stressing the first word

"It is why I like to see you as you are with your mom, it makes me believe that maybe my mum was also an amiable and tender heart as your mum is" I continued, without turning away my glimpse from the road.

I didn't know when she started crying until I heard her yelling out a cough, I looked at her with her cheeks already wet.

Have I said something I shouldn't? Have I made her remember her late father?

"Sorry Luna," I apologized, cuddling her hair.
