We were sitting at the grand table. The fathers sat on the heads of the table. The mothers sat on the fathers right. And finally the children sat on the fathers left. Her gray eyes looked oddly happy. Happier than this morning; her eyes beamed with happiness. She looked pretty--cute-- .

After dinner was served, everyone started eating, "So Jared," I looked at John (Liz's father) who 'surprisingly' was dead glaring at me, "What are you studying for?" He asked.

I finished chewing and murmured under my breath, "Mom tell him," 

She looked at me and looked back at John, "He's learning to be an FBI." John gave my mom a look, "Sorry John but my son doesn't like talking to other people."

I then eat my salad.

"Oh wonderful." I lift my head looking at Mrs. Amore who had her hands together, "Liz is learning to be a teacher, not any type, to learn t---" Liz slammed her hands on her mom's lips and whispered something in her ear. Letting a smal, "Oh," The mom than changes the subject, "Jared dear you look handsome as always."

"Well who wants desert?" Mom asks getting up then she grabbed every plate from the table. Then she took 'em to the kitchen, "We have chocolate cake: since I know that you love it~" Then she yelled, "Jared help me!" I groaned and gave dad a look that said, 'Dad your here help your beloved son!' 

And damn I wanted to talk. 

He gave me the look of 'son survive on your own'. 

I groaned again and stomped into the kitchen, not even a second later I get shover with THREE plates, "Hey I'm not a waiter!" 

She only huffed.

I've been asking my self lately, if one day I would remember everything of my past.

I gave the family their plates, went back to the kitchen and saw mom looking at her phone with a sad smile. 

I didn't say anything...

I didn't move.....

Till a drop of water slided down her pale skin....

"Mama, que pasa?" I asked with a soft voice. I looking at her new Samsung, witch had a photo of a boy around his nine or ten years old..

Mom then blinked several times. "Jared don't let our guests and your father waiting and go!" She shoved me with two plates and grabbed hers and we sat on our places. Then we started eating the chocolate cake that my mom baked. 

"Mrs. Daal is was exquisite." Liz complimented towards my mom, "I missed this cake."  

I ate a peace of the cake, and I remembered the photo that was on my mom's phone.

I looked at Liz, then I remembered that the boy had a necklace that had a moon and a pearl.

And miraculously Lizabeth had the same necklace on her neck.

I kicked her leg with my right leg. She gave me a questionable look. I tilled my head. meaning that she should come with me after dinner. She only nodded.

After dinner the mothers went to clean the dishes and the fathers went to watch a movie on Netflix. I pulled Liz towards my room and we talked about random stuff. Then I said, "Um, this might be a personal question but: who gave you that necklace?"
