"Lee?" I asked confused as he burst into the room out of breath.

"Ara?" He breathed out then looked at Ms.Park with relief on his face.

"Mom! Thank god you're okay! Do you know how worried I was and dad is freaking out." He said as he rushed to his mother's side.

Realization dawned at me and my eyes widened.

I just met Lee's mom?!

Isn't Lee's last name Jenson?

Well his mom's name is Korean so she must not have changed her last name and Lee probably has his father's last name.

As I was making sense of their family name Lee tightly embraced his mother before pulling away and checking if she had any injuries.

"Why did you tell you father? He's on a business trip you dummy." She muttered with an eye roll and I chuckled.

Lee finally remembered that my existence was also present in the room and he glanced at me from where he was standing.

"What are you doing her, Ara?" He asked curiously.

"She was on the bus with me and brought me here with her friend. How do you know her?" Ms Park answered before I could and suddenly I grew very nervous.

Did Lee not tell his parents about me?

I told my mom about him since day one!

Well...

I tell my mom everything so...

"That's my girlfriend." Lee answered with a proud smile as he moved to where I was standing and wrapped me in a bone crushing hug.

In front of his mother!

My breath hitches and I tried pulling away from the hug but he wouldn't budge and kept his arms tightly wrapped around my waist.

"W-what are you doing? Stop!" I whispered yelled into his chest and he laughed before pulling away.

"Thank you thank you thank you!" He said and sneaked a kiss on my cheek as my face grew very very hot.

His mom was right there!

"Um your welcome." I said very awkwardly.

"Your mother is standing right here young man." Ms Park said and I grew even more embarrassed.

But that idiot only laughed.

At least he let his hands drop from my waist and moved to sit on the foot of the bed.

"It sucks that you two have to meet like this but mom this is my girlfriend Arabella Meier and Ara this is my wonderful mom Yuna Park." Lee grinned.

"Nice to meet you Ms Park." I said.

Why is this situation so awkward?

Oh yeah cause I already met her like five minutes ago.

"Nice to meet you too Arabella." She told me with a kind and warm smile that instantly made me relax.

"Where's Kai?" Ms Park asked Lee as I sat back down on the chair.

"He's with the neighbours." He said.

"You mean Marcus's house?" She asked and Lee nodded.

"You and Marcuse are neighbours?" I asked shocked at the new information.

"Yep!" He said and ruffled my hair which I swatted his hand away.

"I'm going to let you guys be now." I said after a couple of moments of chatting with them and got up to leave when Lee grabbed my wrist.

"How are you going to go home? It's late." He frowned and I smiled at him.

"My mom's here and her shift is almost over so I'll give her a call and go home with her." I reassured him and patted his head.

"Okay be careful precious and text me when your home." He said and kissed my hand.

"Okay bye. Bye Ms Park." I greeted them both goodbye and left the room to go to my mom's floor and wait for her there.

I sent my mom a text to let her know I was here as the elevator moved to go up to the fourth floor.

I was waiting for the elevator's door to open when my mom replied back.

When my mom finally came she asked what I was doing here and I told her about Lee's mother.

"I'm glad she's okay and I'm very proud of how you handled the situation." My moms smiled at me and my heart warmed.

"Thanks mom." I said.

Before driving home we stopped by to get take out for dinner since I couldn't cook today than spent the rest of our Saturday night eating and watching a movie.

My mom went to sleep after finishing the movie and I decided to text Lee.

😚

❣️

I realized I was giggling to myself like a complete idiot and groaned at how lovesick I must look.

Well you kinda are lovesick.

My subconscience reminded me and I huffed at myself. I decided to call it a night and go to bed.

The next day I woke up to two texts.

❣️

That was obviously Lee.

Anissa.

I replied to Anissa first saying okay than greeted good morning to Lee and forced myself to get out of bed to go to the bathroom.

When I came downstairs I saw my mom cooking breakfast and eagerly sat down on the counter stool to eat the amazing crepes she made.

"Mhmm. This is so good." I said as I took a bite of my Nutella crepe.

"Thanks sweetie. What are your plans for today?" Mom asked as she sat across from me to eat.

"I need to study for exams and do some homework and Anissa is going to drop by to give me my prom dress." I replied in between bites of my breakfast.

"What did you buy?" My mom asks curiously and I grinned.

"It's a surprise only Anissa knows. I'm not even going to tell Lee." I said.

"How is he suppose to know what colour of tie to wear?" Mom asked.

"Oh. Haven't thought of that yet." I said but than an idea popped into my mind. "I'll buy the tie for him!"

"That's smart." Mom nodded.

"I know." I said cheekily and she laughed.

"Oh! Your dad called earlier this morning. He told me to tell you to call him back as soon as you can." Mom told me as she went to wash her dishes.

"Did he tell you why?" I asked with a frown. Dad an I only talk once a month and that was the first day of each month.

Today was April 21.

"No he didn't tell me why. Just give him a call after breakfast." Mom told me and I nodded.

I had this unsettling feeling in my stomach that that call wasn't going to be good news.
