Choice Made… II 63A

=“Helloooooooo!!!” Steph shouted from the foyer, her five day suitcase in one hand and her phone in the other. She’s timed this perfectly, but the house was quiet. She looked at her wristwatch. Nine. Everyone should be home. She wondered what they were all doing in their rooms and decided to go up and find out. She did just that, going to Shane’s door first, she knocked. When she heard nothing, she knocked louder.

“Yeah?” She heard him say and opened the door. She watched as his eyes widened in surprise on seeing her. “Mom.” She smiled, she just couldn’t help herself. He pulled down his headphones and shut his laptop. “What are you doing here?”

She faked a frown, letting go of her bag and entering the room saying, “Is that what you say to me?”

He let out a short chuckle. “No I mean um… I’m surprised you’re here.”

She shook her head. “Still no good Angel. I worked hard to make sure I can come spend three days with you and that’s what you say?”
