Sixty

Jace's POV

"I heard you are back in New York now, typical of you to disappear without letting your dearest father know" his voice came in as I picked up the call, sometimes I wonder why I still do.

"What do you want?" I snapped angrily.

"Not the best way to talk to your father if you ask me, can't a father check up on his son anymore?" he replied, making me scoff.

"I will not ask again"I shot at him.

"Well, your mother's birthday is this weekend. I was wondering if we could do a little something for her," he said, shocking me.

"You want to arrange a party for Mum?" I asked skeptically, something is wrong.

"Yes, why do you sound so surprised, I know I have not been the best and I treated her terribly but I have realized that she barely has a month to go. Why can't we just grant her one wish, all of us together as one big happy family" he answered.
