Chapter 69- Maverick
ZARAH~
Saturday morning, I placed the plate in front of him and a happy smile lit up his face.
"Thank you, mommy." He said happily as he began to eat the breakfast I had made him, my eyes remained on him, watching every move he made with a growing smile on my face.
"What do you wanna do after this?" I asked, wanting to spend the entirety of my day in his presence.
"Emmmm, I was planning to go play with Josh." He answered with food still I’m his mouth, Josh was one of his friends in the neighborhood and he would usually come around so he and Elliott could go to the park. Honestly, I was a little saddened.
"Oh," I said then began rethinking my plans for today when he called me.
"Mommy." He said, his voice is soft and gentle, I looked at him and leaned down so we were on the same eye level.
"Yes, my little prince," I replied.
"Can you—Can you—teach me how to talk to him?" He asked shyly, I immediately knew who he was talking about so I stood up straight and said.
"Of course baby, when you get back from the park," I said then picked up his now empty plate and walked to the sink.
"Mommy." He called again, I turned my head to him and gave him a hundred percent of my attention.
