★★★★. ★★★★. ★★★★. ★★★★
A week later.
A week had passed with Lucian going to and coming back from work and he had noticed the change in Elara's attitude towards him. She no longer annoyed him deliberately.she no longer held the conversations for long. and she kept the conversations business only."What's happening to her.....was it something I said .....is she upset with me" he thought aloud. After a long pause" wait why am I bothered......not like I care. now I have peace she should just stay within her limits.........yes I'm happy.."
someone knocks on the door while opening it " Mom?"
" son who are you talking to?"
" no one...why .why are you here?"
" you're asking ur mother why she came to ur room 😒?"
"well technically... yes...."
" fine I came to talk about ur marriage.. with that girl what's her name?......................ah yes Elara CALLISTO."
" 🙄 what about her?"
" Seriously? why her why didn't you tell me about it.why-"
" you've been here for over a week and u just realized that I'm married??".
" I've been busy."
" doing what?"
" none of ur business"
" look mom I don't want to argue with you just leave me alone."
" I'm not done.......I came here with the hopes of getting u married to Layla and settle down with her....but I was met with the news of u being married, how's Layla going to feel huh?,,,,,,"
" that's your problem MOM"
" well if u won't give me a solution at least give me a grandchild....I mean u have such a beautiful wife and you stay in different rooms 🙄.."
*no answer*
" listen I'm getting old and very soon I'll collapse-"
" enough mom stop saying such"
" then do what I tell you or else I-"
" FINE!now will u please leave my room?"
" of course sweetheart 😘" she said with a laugh and left.
MEANWHILE....
" I've been ignoring him and he's not even making an attempt to ask why........not like I care but-"
someone knocks on the door
" who is it !?"she asked in irritation.
" it's me Layla"
" oh great that twitch with a tiny voice has come to add 'sugar' to my day" she said in a whisper and shouted" COME IN"
she opened the door and came in "hi how are you?".
"what brings you here" Elara asked avoiding the medium of familiarity Layla was trying to make.
"I was passing by I just wanted to stop by to say hello"
"alright you've said it,now u can leave."
"I couldn't help but notice that you've been cold to everyone especially me and Lucian".
