The Marvelous Elijah’s Return

Chapter 133

A hesitant look crossed Elijah‘s face as he stared at the word “Mother,” blinking a few times before looking behind to see Peach bareback as she shifted under the white sheet on the bed.

“Son?!” Mrs. Maxwell‘s voice suddenly drew Elijah‘s attention back to the call, and he smiled lightly at the sound of his mother‘s panicked cry.

“Good morning, mother.” Elijah‘s voice was slightly hoarse from disuse and sleep, but the smile on his face never wavered.

“Elijah… Son! I have been trying to reach you for months now, and yet your phone always seems to be off… I know you have to prove something to your father, but how can you put your own mother on a blacklist?!”

“I am sorry, mother… Please forgive your son for his foolish behavior.”

Silence settled on the line as Elijah looked back at his wife and then he let out, “I miss you.”

“Is everything okay?” Mrs. Maxwell asked softly in return.

“Yes. Everything is fine. I just feel like I am in a better place now… I can‘t talk to dad about these things…. But I think he already knows–”

“He wouldn‘t let me know anything about your whereabouts or happens, and it makes me so heartbroken because I want to know, Elijah… As your mother, I would love to talk about your life and all that entails…”

“…I met a woman–” “You did?!”. “Yes. And she‘s the one… I woke up this morning, and thought it was time you knew about her.”

“Oh, Elijah…”

Listening to her husband‘s soft voice, Peach‘s lashes fluttered, knowing she had never met her mother–in–law or father–in–law before. But hearing Elijah talk to his mother about her made her feel like she was one step closer to being welcomed into their family.

“She‘s sweet, a bit wild, a little reckless, but also smart and strong. She has an infectious laugh and the best sense of humor… She makes me so happy, and I couldn‘t imagine having anyone better to spend my life with…” Peach heard him say and tears prickled in her eyes, not realizing she was smiling so hard that her jaw hurt. “And I thought you should know that we are planning to start a family…”

“Elijah! Honey! That‘s a good thing! A great decision! Oh, mine, I am so overwhelmed right now, I don‘t even have words!”

“I know,” Elijah replied, chuckling at the joy he could still hear in his mom‘s voice. “Mom,” “Yes, son,”

“I was thinking, maybe… Maybe It‘s time she meets you.” “Are you serious?!”
