BREAKS IN A SIGH

d'' Luna said. He opened the door and saw his mother taking a look at her newly purchased clothes. ''Good evening, mom'' he said as he sat on a stool next to h

appy, unlike you. Leave those clothes, sit down and tell me what's going on'' Luna said and sat at the edge of her bed as she dragged Sage along. He smiled, but still was noticeably with some facial expression of some hard feelings. ''But mom, I am okay'' he said, trying to force smiles out of his frozen cheeks. ''Now, no, you are not going to tell me that, I gave birth to you and have spent my life with you for decades, I mean decades, not just some years. Son, I understand you. Tell me something. So, what is it?'' Luna said, imploringly. Instead of opening up as hi

tive amusement. ''Mom, I am worried'' Sage said again, with depictions of concern written all over his face. ''Son, say something, what is it?'' Luna asked, imploringly. Sage was trying to think out something from his head. ''What's it? Don't worry about my life, I will push through it. My age should not bother you. I am strong'' she continued. ''I am not talking about all that, mom. There is something'' Sage said, now with a frowned face. ''It's alright, make me un-derstand you, son'' Luna said, in appeals. ''Mom, daddy is worried'' Sage said, and uncon-sciously or unconsciously, picked up the remote control from the side stool. ''Your dad?'' Luna asked, curiously. ''Yes, my dad, he is not happy, and he made it clear too'' Sage said, frowning his face with worries shown on his face. Luna took a breather, thinking about what to say. ''So, what about his worries?'' Luna asked, in sulks. ''I mean, mom, he did not deny his worries'' Sage said, looking at her with the same ugly glare, showing some depictions of disappointment. ''So, why are you looking at me like that?'' Luna asked with indignation. ''Mom, it seems you are not getting it, or are you?'' Sage said angrily. ''Now, make me un-derstand. Because I would like to understand why becoming pregnant for my husband has become a problem. Not that you are afraid of me being able to carry the baby to term, or doubt my resolve to carry the baby. So, isn't it better you tell me what it is?'' Luna asked. ''I am worried mom, because my father said the pregnancy is not his. That's why I am worried'' Sage said in a low voice, yet its bass tone was loudly deafening. Luna was shocked to hear that from her son. ''Son, who told you that lie?'' she asked audaciously. ''Mom, it is the same man'' Sage said. ''Who? Which man'' Luna asked, looking as though she was about to lose her anger. ''Dad, my father'' Sage said. Luna became more worried. ''When did he say such a thing to you?'' she asked. ''Is it more necessary when he said that? I just decided to have it discussed with you today. Is it true?'' Sage asked, resolutely. ''What do you mean by that?'' Luna asked, daringly. ''That the pregnancy is not his?'' Sage said, ignoring her anger. ''How dare you ask me such a silly question?'' Luna asked, aggressively. ''Because he told me so, I decide to clarify this with you before I have another discussion with him, on this'' Sage said. Luna looked at him scornfully. ''What, mom? Why are you looking at me like a bad person, here?'' he continued. ''You mean somebody talked down on your mother, and asking her disrespectfully was all you could do?'' Luna asked him in words that lacked base for understanding. ''Mom, I have not disrespected you, any way here. I mean this was what daddy told me, and I thought the right thing was to have it discussed with you. I am no longer a baby'' Sage said. ''Oh, you mean, you have grown so much that you can talk to me any way you feel, right?'' Luna asked in glare. ''Mom, not that, I don't mean that I have grown to disrespect you. Mom, you know I don't'' Sage said, but just that when he tried to continue, his mother interrupted him. ''But that's what you just did now'' she said. ''No mom, I never did. Let's see it this way, we have had a wonderful family that not only
