Falling For The Man I Married

Chapter 54: A mother's hug

It's was 6:45 am when I decided to take a taxi and headed to the airport. Sandy was right about booking a plane ticket for plan B, in case Gabriel didn't show up. And yeah, she's right, he didn't come home last night and thanks to God, I listened to her. 

I tried to call him last night and this morning but I got even more frustrated, he didn't answer my calls. I've already sent him some text messages but so far I haven't received any reply from him. Then so be it! I can go without him. 

I stopped calling him when I got to the airport. He forgot about this for sure. Well, he always forgets everything when he's with her... so what would I expect, right? 

-'Huh! The man you choose to love is still in love with someone else, so take the pain! If you're not just a big stupid and idiot, you already know that he hasn't gotten over yet from his past, but you let yourself fall in love with him! Take it!'- my mind screamed inside.

And to avoid thinking about him, I turned off my phone and tried to sleep. I just need to wait 2 to 3 hours and I am in my homeland.

"My baby!"

My mom screamed when she noticed a taxi parked in front of the black gate. She immediately ran towards the gate with our two maids also running after her. 

"Oh my God! My baby, I missed you so much!" she pulled me into a tight hug and kissed me all over my face. 

"I missed you too, Mom," I said not noticing the warm fluid flowing down on my face. 

"Ohh... is that how you missed your old mother?"

"Mom?"

I pouted at what she said but I hugged her again. I missed her, I missed her hug, I missed her comfort and everything in her. I missed my mom. I wanted to tell everything like when I was a kid when I was still her little Madi, but I can't. 

"Why are you crying, baby? You're here now and your old mother is in front of you." She said chuckling as she wiped away my tears. But you can see in her eyes that she's just controlling herself not to cry in front of me. 

Why am I crying? It's for two things... number one, I missed my mother's hug and number two... I'm so upset about what's going on in my life right at that moment. 

"By the way, why are you alone? I thought you're going to introduce your boyfriend to your Mom?"

"Yeah, but I told you he's a busy person, Mom. He's the CEO of one of the largest company in Chicago." I smiled and did my best not to bite my lips. She knows when I'm lying. 

"Oh, I see."

"But don't worry, I'll call him later."

"Okay. Let's go inside so you can start telling me your love story with this lucky boyfriend of yours."

She kissed my temple and we headed towards the huge double wooden door. 

"Oh my God!"

I murmured loudly the moment I walked into our home. I inhaled the familiar scent of jasmine and the morning breeze coming from the air conditioner. It's my Mom's favorite scent. 

"I missed this Mom." I turned to her and hugged her again. 

"Don't worry, your home misses you too, sweetie."
