Tea and Mocha
Daniel P.O.V
The next day we woke up at about 7:00 due to jet lag so I made Tom come with me for a run as we weren’t far from the bridal trail where I usually do my jogging. When we got back it was about 8:00 so we both had a shower and got ready, when we where done it was almost 9:00 and my mum was here to take is over to gfg to get a coffee. I waved at mum as she pulled in and me and Tom got in the back seat
“Morning mum.”
“Morning Sue.” She turned around as I hugged her from the back seat
“Morning boys did you sleep well?”
“Yeah, we did, what about you mum.”
“I didn’t sleep to well actually kept waking up for some reason.”
“Oh, that’s a bit weird.” We spoke about a few things as we headed over to the gfg. Mum parked the car and we got out and headed over to a table under a tree for shade. I felt a bit sad as memories came back off when my dad kicked me out the house as this was where it happened but I tried not to focus on that.
“So, Daniel you would like a mocha and brownie, Tom would you like a tea and what muffin.”
“Tea sounds great thank you and can I please have a blueberry muffin, are you sure you don’t want me to pay.”
“Yes of course I am.” Mum got up and left and Tom held my hand.
“How are you going with being back home?”
“Honestly better than I thought it’s good to see mum and I have missed Hannah, plus the idea of the ball isn’t so bad as long as you are there.” I gave him a quick kiss, “And thanks for coming with me.”
“What do you expect where else would I be.” Mum came back out with everything we had ordered and she got herself a tea and a bit of carrot cake. It was nice sitting in that café catching up with mum and I felt even happier because Tom was there as well and mum didn’t care. We spoke about the premier, and we also spoke about how good Tom was in civil war then mum wanted to see my drawing so I showed her and she was happy to see that they were slowly becoming happier drawings. When we finished Tom got a call and had to take it so he gave me a kiss on the check and got up to answer.
“I’m so happy for you Daniel, for the first time in a while I finally feel like you’re okay with yourself and to see that makes me so happy because you are finally moving forward.” Mum had a few tears in her eyes as she smiled at me.
“No mum don’t you start because if you start crying then I will start crying and that will be to many tears, but you are right mum thanks to Tom he make me feel okay make me feel safe even happy.”
“Well that’s good.” I smiled at her and I knew I had to ask her even though I already knew the answer.
“Mum.”
“Yeah?”
“How dad going.” I mum gave me a sad smile.
“Yeah hes doing good, but I have a feeling that’s not what you mean and before I tell you are you sure you want to know.” I thought for a second and nodded. “I know he misses you but he would never say that but at the moment he just acts like you don’t even exist and I tell him that its wrong and I have tried to get him to understand but he just gets to angry.” I smile and mum trying not to look to hurt.
“Are you okay Daniel.”
“With Dad no but one day I will be.” She smiled at me as Tom came back over and sat next to me.
“Sorry about that Sue work called.”
“No don’t you worry about it I understand.” Mum looked at her watch and gasped. “My God its 1:00 all ready im sorry boys but I need to go I have Chris coming over in an hour and need to clean the house before she gets in, oh and that reminds me I have to showing machine in that car so you can fix up Hannah’s dress a bit more so let me give you a lift home.”
“Thanks mum.” I got up and gave her a hug.
“Thank you, Sue, it was good to see you.”
“And you too Tom.” We went over to the car and mum drove us to the Hotel. When we got there me and Tom said our goodbye and he then carried the showing machine up the stairs for me. For the rest of the day started I fixing up Hannah’s dress while Tom took some phone calls then at 5:00 we watched the first Spiderman movie then went to bed when it finished. And I lied in Tom arms as usual with my head on his chest listening to his heart.
“Night Spidey Love you.”
“Night Darling, I love you too…”
