Speaking of Allen…
The little boy somehow escaped his mom’s security and made his way into one of the eateries. He could hide in here for a while or so he thought because the moment he turned around, a boy bumped into him- amid his attempt to evade the boy- and his ice cream slipped to the ground.
“Mommy!” The cry baby opened his mouth, bawling his eyes out.
“Stop crying so loud, you’re hurting my ears. It’s just ice cream. I’ll get you another one,” Allen enticed him but the boy shrieked further.
“Neon!” A woman rushed over to him, worry written all over her face, ” What is it?” she panicked.
“My ice cream,” Neon pointed to the mess on the ground and to the boy who stood watching them blankly.
“What did you do to him?” Jennifer focused heated orbs on Allen when her son wouldn’t stop crying, “Did you hit him?”
Allen snorted, “Hit him? Why would I hit him? I don’t waste my energy on crybabies,”
“He called me a crybaby?” Neon burst into more tears.
“Apologize!” Jennifer growled at him.
“I spoke the truth so why should I apologize? For him being a crybaby? He was the one who bumped into me because his entire concentration was on the ice cream. I would pay for the damage to his ice cream but I won’t apologize for pointing out the truth,” Allen declared boldly without blinking an eye.
“You rude child!” Jennifer saw red, raising her voice on him, ” Who’s your mother?! “
“I am,”
The third POV
Those chipmunks were getting on her nerves, they wanted her to age faster than her time.
Reina had waited for them, patiently. They had even dared to disguise their appearances – what kind of mother would she be if she couldn’t identify her own children?
So the moment they came out of the arrival terminal, Reina had recognized them and they did too because they sprinted into a run.
And so the cat and mouse game began. Nonetheless, they gave her a hard time finding them but it also came as a relief to Reina- they wouldn’t be kidnapped easily by the enemy.
But the kids underestimated her, she was able to find out Allen’s location through the surveillance camera now monitored by her people.
Informed of Allen’s location, she sashayed into that lunchroom to give her son a piece of her mind when she stumbled upon a scene that made her boil with anger.
“You rude child!” Reina saw this woman yelling at her child. Her brow raised, someone dared to bully her son in her absence?
“Who’s your mother?! “
The nerve!
Fine, she summoned her? Here she comes.
“I am,” Reina strutted comfortably to the middle of the noise that had also attracted the attention of other people.
Jennifer was angry seeing Neon cry his eyes out, her son was a nice child. Who knows what that evil child has done to him?
The anger plus the frustration of discovering that the man she was supposedly getting married to was cheating on her, made Jennifer call out the kid’s mother.
But she never expected to see that woman! Jennifer had watched that video over and over again to the point of insanity. Hence, there was no way she couldn’t recognize her at first sight.
Honestly, She was intimidated. There was this aristocratic yet dangerous aura around this woman not to talk of the way she carried herself confidently – an attitude she couldn’t pull off without appearing clumsy.
“You wanted me here? Why can’t you talk? Cat got your tongue?” Reina taunted her without holding back Reina recognized this woman instantly, she was Niles’s fiancée who he would get married to or so he thought – she wouldn’t let that happen.
There was no need to pretend, Reina didn’t like her nor did she like her either. At the least she wasn’t fake with her feelings, that was an admirable trait.
“Yes, I did,” Jennifer thrust her chin forward, wanting to look intimidating. Her fists were folded by her side as she scrutinized Reina. She could see why Niles was attracted to her.
The woman was beautiful- not the enchanting version of beauty but the type enamoring enough to make a man whistle. Jennifer herself wasn’t left out in the beauty department, but she was cute and plain, she thought.
“Your son hurt my son and refuses to apologize, ” Jennifer laid her complaint.
Reina gave her a mocking look, ” You mean your son or the ice cream?”
Jennifer went red in the face, ” Is this all you can say? No wonder your son has no manners,” she blurted out. She didn’t mean to say that but staring at that face reminded her of that video and how much it irked her.
“Excuse me? ” Reina raised a brow, threading her hand through her hair. Someone just provoked her.
“Isn’t that what you should say to yourself?” Reina settled her fierce orbs on her.
“What?”
” Your son was the one who wasn’t looking and bumped into my son. Still yet you dared to request an apology even when he offered to buy him another one? How shameless could you get!” Reina raised her voice on her, the way Jennifer had done to her son moments ago.
Jennifer was speechless, this wasn’t the reaction she expected.
” Mommy, ” Neon who had stopped crying tugged on her clothe,” Stop crying, “
Jennifer at once realized tears were streaming down her face and began to wipe them away, furiously. She didn’t intend to cry but she was such an emotional person.
At once, people began to murmur, gesturing in disapproval against Reina. In their eyes, she was now the woman bullying mother and son.
“Stupid people,” Reina muttered, pulling out her purse to bring out wads of cash which she placed in Jennifer’s grasp amid her refusal.
“My son offered to pay for the damages and as his mother, I’m taking on the responsibility. That should be enough to buy your son the ice cream and a lot more,” she enclosed the money with Jennifer’s palm, ” But then, I want him to apologize to my son!”
There was a deep outroar from the crowd, this woman was crazy! Not only was she bullying mother and son, but she also wanted an apology too? Shameless! How shameless!
“Mom, don’t bother. Let’s just leave,” Allen told his mother but she stood firm.
At first, Reina would have left but not when people were giving her son condemnatory looks. She wasn’t Maria who let people play her around. Now, she was Raina. Neither would she allow her son to be accused unfairly. Justice must be brought to light now!
Jennifer blinked away the tears, her lips pressed in determination. She wasn’t going to lose this fight to this woman.
“How can you be so sure that your son is innocent? You just chanced upon the scene halfway plus your son wasn’t respectful, he called my Neon a crybaby and made him cry further,” was her defense.
The crowds murmuring increased.
“Fine, let’s come to a deal then,” Reina’s mouth curved to the side, “If my son is guilty, not only would he apologize but I would too as his mother. However, if your son’s at fault, you would apologize alongside him, how’s that?”
