Xlipto- Busted 1
"Busan" she called.
She called again after waiting some minutes without getting any response. She stood at the door impatiently, cursing in her mind.
She could swear with all gods in Xlipto that her son was still in bed. She wrestled against the idea of entering the room. Yes, the door was locked but since when did she need a door to enter into any room. The last time she had entered her son's room, she had met him naked to the bones; not that it bothered her in anyway, she was his mother and his nakedness was nothing new to her but the son's reaction was enough to give her a rethink this time.
He had screamed the planet to vibration and with the speed of light literarily, had dressed up. When she had recovered from the vibration, the look he had given her was of pure horror.
"You should have at least warned me before coming in ma," he had said accusingly.
"I'm a man now, I need some privacy."
And that was how he'd gotten her to promise she'd always knock on the door and patiently wait for him to open before she'd go in.She was already getting mad with impatience.
"Buzan!" she cried out again swearing she would go in if he did not respond or better open the door immediately.
"Ma!" he called out and opened the door trying very hard to control his breathing so he would not give himself out.
"What have you been doing all these time?" She asked him, noticing the way he was trying hard not to gasp for breath.
"Nothing Ma. I was just trying to tidy up my room before I let you in. I didn't want you to start whining about how I can't keep my room clean and all".
She entered inside the room and looked around to fill herself in with what was really happening. The room was clean, she'd give him that but something was just off. She could not place what but she could just feel it in the atmosphere. She turned again to the son.
"Buzan?"
"Ma?"
"Well, are you going to tell me or should I find it out myself and you know if I find it out myself..."
"Fine!" he interrupted her.
"Fine! But you have to promise me that it will be between us".
" And if you've done something stupid?"
"Hmmm..."
"Buzan?"
"Ma it's something stupid but I promise you it's for a good course."
"And that's supposed to calm me down? What's the reason if I may ask?"
Buzan looked down and anxiously scratched his head. He slowly looked up to the eyes of his mother still staring at him.
"I'm in love ma..." he said drawingly, half expecting the mother would not just get it.
To his surprise, she smiled. Buzan's mother could recognize that sheepish look on the son's face. That was the same his father, her beloved gives her when he is overwhelmed with love and does not know just how to express it.
"Who is the girl" she asked.
"Errrmmmm. That's where the problem is Ma."
He lowered his head again to the ground and anxiously chewed on his nail.
