"Sorry Alex..."

"There's a sudden family business at home and...." Her answer sent your mind all the way up down, though her lyrical voice slow down your decent.

"Ohh Alex, I do really want to go, I'm so sorry... how about tomorrow we set our first date?" Her apology and rearrangement puts the trampoline on the drop and launch you up enough back to the starting point.

"Oh alright..." You said and thinking of what to add to it

"So, uh, see you then!" But then you decided to stop on mere seconds left from being awkward.

"Yeah, see you tomorrow!" Kaylee replied

Months ago, your mom and dad kept telling you stories of how beautiful the moment was on their each other's high school dance. When two couples hold hands and felt their movement as one under the pattern of the song the two heard together. That was your motivation for improving yourself, from the shy guy to the normal guy. You missed your mark at high school and looking forward for the College Prom. Then your once in a lifetime dream was crushed, the dream to attend the ballroom together with Kaylee. Its been months that you wanted to attend the second-year's dance night like many of the cool seniors did last year, having been watching one live for being a backstage labor. You walked back to your friends while thinking what could've been. You wanted to have a night with her, dancing to the tunes whilst stealing moments to stare at each others' eyes (her sky blue to your cloudy blue eyes).

"Did she said yes?" Josh asked as you're closing in to your best buds again, but without the pumped up spirit in your veins.

"No, but she moved the first date on tomorrow though." You told the two.

Together you three shrugged off that dream and talk about more sci-fi.

Back to the realm of possibilities, she could've said no and dumped you for another guy. Your heart warmed up again to the fact that she wanted a re-schedule for a first date.

Damn... I'm lucky and I just realized it

After the day ended, you had nothing else to do around your college district. Due to your pre-planned dance night, you had to miss the box office slot with Josh and Cassie tonight.

So with that option gone, you had to travel home and spend the night with your family.

"Alex!!! Oh my sweet college boy!" Your mom welcomed your arrival with her ever-attractive beauty, loving smile and touch of warmth in her usual blue sweater and pants. David was in his room while Maisie was downstairs, in her white shirt and pants and was in-and-out the kitchen getting something ready.

Back to your mom, she never liked you keeping things silent from her.

Furthermore she got the keen sense of when you're doing so, from your sulky tone and your drained face muscles being weak to make any solid expressions in unison. So you sat down together on the sofa in the living room and told her about Kaylee.

"...Alex, I'm sorry to hear about this... I'll tell you what, how bout we do something you like for tonight! You get to pick." Your mom approached your body and gave you a hug of warmth.

"Aww bro for real?! She should've bail on her family business and go to the dance..." David immediately reacted as he heard you talking about. Apparently, he's into this sort of thing already.

"...Damn, its a once in a lifetime opportunity!!! Sorry mom." David scratched his hair as he went down the stairs, and his cuss incited a quick glare from your mom. He's in his jacket and jeans and seemed likely to not be home for the night.

"David, language!" Your mom said while glaring her gaze at him.

"I said I'm sorry." and made David pout as he resumed his prep to go.

Then Maisie joined the conversation from far on the kitchen table while eating her self-made sandwich

"Well Kaylee is Kaylee, too kind to bail... cool role model." Maisie said sarcastically, rolling her eyes which made your mom facepalmed. "But seriously Alex, Cassie's way awesome."

Cassie would love to hear this, as always.

You then decided to ask your attentive mom about her plans for the night.

"Me? oh I'm already past my Friday night outs..." Your mom said looking down on her body, to the contrast of her maintained youthful looks and energy. Her face was bright as day with those smooth cheekbones and soft lifts still intact. Her kept on shining blonde hair. Her hourglass figure constantly maintained. Which you seemed to saw no signs of her getting old, even through her low-key modest clothing.

"...what about you Maisie?" She then asked her dear rebellious daughter.

"Oh, looks like I had plans for the night... Tabitha had her allowance early so we can rent movies at her house." Maisie said with smiles, hasten her meal and went right upstairs.

"What about dad? will he be home early?" You asked her, not that you wanted a more recap of your childhood for sitting in between your parents.

"Probably not, because of the crash he needed extra works to fill up the shortage due to hospital bills." Your mom sadly delivered the news.

"But, Ashley should be on her way home right now!" and she rejoiced with her ever-loving smile and held your hand together with her warmth. You personally had no problems with Ashley, being the sweet older sister that didn't even nudge you when asking for help in many times on your homework. The thing was with mom, who would surely embezzle Ashley's many awards. Unlike you, she attends the country's prestigious college. Your mom would surely spread Ashley's achievements on your face thinking that'll lift you up from being lazy.

"Yeah mom." you smiled to her joyful face.

Aside from favoriting Ashley, your mom was surely the person to comfort you after a bad outcome.

After helping her to cook dinner, you and your mom were setting up the TV for tonight's activity

Waiting for the dinner to be readily cooked, you both decided to pick what you and your mom will enjoy together and that is romance movies. You immediately subscribe to a streaming service and proceed to set up the TV for watching the chosen movie.

"Oh Tim... you sure about picking this?" She asked with some signs of joy on her face, but you wiped her concern away. Its a legendary movie and a decency for you to pick the movie from her teenage times, ever since you rarely sit beside her and hardly do things together.

Not to be romantic at all but its always nice to hear her laugh and smile while hearing sorts of silly moments from her past.

"Ohh, you know that reminds me of Maisie!" You said after hearing that she did one of those naughty habits you've seen Maisie pulled on people countless times.

"Yeah well, I didn't want her to go far into her rebel side... Why oh why she didn't look up to Ashley." Your mom chuckled.

Throughout the movie, you and mom reacted similarly to its scenes. Cheering for the main guy pulling countless efforts, smiled when the couple had a moment together, your mom covering your eyes on an explicit scene and then telling each other stories in between. Hanging out with your mom wasn't a bad draw and surprisingly enjoyable, her presence managed to sooth you and her stories managed to distract you and kept your spirit from faltering.

*stomach rumble*

"Ohh mom, I-I gotta go." But your stomach did a bad timing for getting in between.

"Okay Tim... make sure you flush twice!" You catched your mom's paused warning as you circled to the back of the seat and trotted to the bathroom far through the hallway.

You took quite sometime in the bathroom but like every people you need to take a dump, especially after eating meat for dinner.

"Shit... uhhh." A relieve after the sweet release of your butt.

"Ahhh!" and startled when the lights suddenly went out for a bit.

"That's weird." and remarked when it turned back on for merely seconds, out of the usual hours of blackout.

With the butt business done, you left immediately to catch up with the movie and to leave less missed moments. Especially the climax or you'll direly need to watch it again, since the climax is the most important thing!

"Huh, guess I'm just in time." You peeked from hallway's edge to the hearted-climax was about to begin.

While you peered, you also saw that....
