"You don't have work today, Mommy?" Erom inquired in the middle of watching cartoons.
I smiled thriftily at him then gently cupped his small face. "I took a leave," I answered.
This is the second day I haven’t gone to work. I immediately filed a sick leave to our head manager last time after I peeked at Valjerome’s record in the logbook. He has two check-in days at the hotel so I am sure he won't be there tomorrow at once.
"Mom," Erom called that caught my attention.
"Yes, my prince?"
His earlier vision that was focused on me gradually twitched. "Can I stay with you during weekends, Mom?" softeningly he said.
I was stunned and did not immediately say a word. I just stared at my son who didn’t seem to be able to look at me properly.
"Is there a problem, son? Don't you like to be in your Dad's company?" I calmly inquired and moved to sit closer to him.
He glanced at me for a while then averted his eyes again. He played with his fingers then looked at me again.
