186 Dying to Feel you Again

That night William ordered take out and they ate together at the dining table. Julie dominated the conversation, totally hyper and overly excited.

William explained that in a couple of days Lina would be coming to live with them.

"Do you understand Julie? Lina's going to be my wife so that means she's like your mom now."

Lina choked on a piece of pizza and began coughing and patting her chest.

William gave her a funny look, "Are you okay?"

Lina nodded and covered her mouth.

Did he say 'mom'?

Lina was totally embarrassed, it wasn't like she hadn't thought of Julie like her own. She often did, but 'mom' is a big word, a huge word and with only twelve years between herself and Julie, Lina didn't know if it was the right word.

However she ate politely and tried to look enthusiastic as Will started explaining the wedding. It was to be held at the Zheng Estate, as a way to appease his parents and the family elders.
