Chapter 16

At My Parents' House

The weekend came, and it is my day off. I have plans for today, such as cleaning my condo unit, going to the grocery, and visiting our home where my parents live. Just as plans, I woke up early and did my morning rituals. I started cleaning after I ate my breakfast when my phone rang. I smiled when I saw who called.

"Mom!" I squealed when I answered her call.

"Geez... Ashley, can you just lower down your voice? You almost broke my eardrums." Mom complained, but I just chuckled.

“Anyway, I just called to ask you if you could come here today?” She asked.

“Of course, mom! I will go home today, but maybe later afternoon, I will have to buy stocks from the grocery. But promise, I will be there before dinner.”

“Okay. I will cook your favorite dish. Take care yourself, alright?” I nodded even if she did not see me.

“Yes, Mom. I should hang it up now. Bye, Mom. I love you.” I said before I ended the call and continue cleaning.
