Robbie was sleeping, tangling around me like a vine. It took me ten whole minutes to untangle myself from his octopus-like grip. Getting down, I glanced at Robbie's pretty face, which now has an unhealthy pallor over it, with visible dark circles under his eyes and unkempt hair over his forehead. The past few days must have been quite hard on him. His confrontation with his dad has resulted in him being in a difficult situation. Although he did not mention details of the dispute, I knew he left his house in the end. He did not even tell me where he was staying. According to him, the less I know, the better. It is hard not to feel sorry for the difficult situation he has landed in. I wanted to tell him to make peace with his dad, but thinking of the conditions his dad has put forward, I cannot bring myself to say it. I patted his head subconsciously but quickly withdrew my hand when I saw him moving. Shaking my head, I went out to get refreshed. Twen woke up half an hour later when I

The question took me off guard. Since male Omegas have a huge bias in society, I was not sure if Mr. Jonas was simply asking out of curiosity or because he didn't like Tanya being around me. However, his next sentence threw all my worries out of the window, "Relax! I am not judging you. I was simply intrigued by you as my daughter wouldn't shut up about you." I breathed a sigh of relief, so that was the case. I laughed lightly as I said, "Tanya and I have been friends for the last four years, so I guess it's natural." Mr. Jonas looked at me with unfathomable eyes as he said in a tone heavy with complex feelings, "That's not all. You are her first true friend who stayed with her despite knowing her true sub-gender." This is new information to me. Tanya and I might have been friends for long, but I got to know her true gender only recently, and I hardly knew anything about her past. Since I didn't want my past to be questioned, I refrain from asking about others. I never knew that

Our trip back home was quite uneventful. Fred got very close to Mr. Jonas, and they both even hugged before parting. Tanya and Fred left on friendly terms, except Fred stood at one hand distance from her. It looked strange that they were speaking in such a friendly way from such a distance. Twen woke up after a short nap and was offered ice cream, which he happily gobbled up. Tanya came and hugged me before saying with a wide smile on her face, "Thank you so much for coming. See you tomorrow at work." "See you! Happy birthday again!" I smiled, hugging her back. Robbie gave Tanya a short one-handed hug and asked her to take care while Mr. Jonas shook hands with him, and Mrs. Teena said warmly to all of us, "All of you, visit us again. I would love to have you all back." We all smiled and reassured her that we would come again. Tanya has got such a lovely family. I looked back at them waving at us without being able to hide my longing. I quickly shook my head and reminded myself th

The woman who just walked in has the same pitch-black curly hair (tied in an elegant bun) and gray eyes like that of Robbie's. However, unlike him, she has an oval face, a soft, kind mouth, and a glowing wheatish complexion. She is quite short with a lean structure, but her presence is quite large. She has the word 'class' written in every nook and cranny of her stature. It is so profound that even some of the cafe's customers turned to look at her. My jaw dropped on seeing Mrs. Walker. Not only is she a beauty, but she barely looks thirty. Had I not known she was Robbie's mother, I would have thought she was Robbie's sister. Mrs. Walker is such a sophisticated and classy lady that I suddenly felt under-dressed. Even in her hurried and exhausted form, she still managed to look very elegant. I was completely tongue-tied on seeing her. Robbie got up and hugged her, chirping, in a happy tone, "Mum, sorry to call you when you're so busy." She patted his back with a bright smile, "Absol

On our way back, Robbie had a constant smile on his face. I narrowed my eyes and asked, "What's with all the smiles?" Robbie gave me a quick cheeky glance and said with a chuckle, "I told you my mum is awesome!" I couldn't deny it. She really is an amazing woman. I smiled, rubbing my nose, "She is. She holds no prejudice against omegas like most Alphas do and is so kind and graceful." "Of course, she is!" Robbie exclaimed proudly. "Can we meet her again?" I asked, looking at Robbie with puppy dog eyes. "Mum already gained two fans on her very first meet," he said, rolling his eyes, "Well, she is usually very busy with her designs and business and has to go out of the country often too. Don't worry, we will find time to meet her. I am sure she will like it too." I leaned back on my seat, feeling very full and warm for the first time in forever. The rest of the journey went quietly till we reached my quarter. Twen had already fallen asleep in the back seat after getting tired of p
