(Prionsa POV)


    A few weeks passed since the dinner. I''m at my job and a coworker comes to me ''''Hey Pri! Steve is here to see you.''''


    ''''Steve?''''


    ''''Yeah, your boyfriend''s father?...''''


    ''''Oooohhh, yeah, Steve! Of course!'''' I walk away and head to where ''Steve'' is waiting for me ''''Hi! what can I do for you?''''


    ''''I...would like a new... suit.'''' I look at him with this confused look. It''s the first time I see him like that... I know I only saw him twice, but Gloom never told me his father was... shy?


    ''''Of course! Actually there is this new tux we just received. When I saw it, I thought that it would fit you perfectly! It''s a little... wild. But I think you have the confidence to wear it!'''' I can see his posture instantly going back to normal and I see that little smirk appear on his face. There is the ''Steve'' I know ''''Let''s try it on then!'''' He tells me.


    When he get out of the fitting room, he looks at his reflection in the mirrors, making a few spin around at the same time. ''''So, what do you think?'''' I ask him


    He looks at himself in the white tux with flamboyante red patterns one, white buttoned-up and red bow tie and pants.


    ''''I never thought about wearing a bowtie or white and bright colors... I kind of always went for black and other dark colors... But I have to say... I love it!''''


    ''''I''m glad you do!'''' He turns around to face me and I can see his face and posture switch back to a more shy and crounching position. He rub the back of his neck with his hand and say without really looking at me ''''Did... Did Gloom talk about me after the dinner?''''


    The question suprise me, it takes me a few seconds to recover, but I finally answer ''''Well... Yes a little. He would deny it if you ever ask him, but he told me that he really enjoyed spending time with you.''''


    ''''Really?'''' His eyes are shining, full of hopes.


    ''''Yeah, really!''''Ensure your favorite authors get the support they deserve. Read this novel on the original website.


    He smile widely and tell me that their father-son relationship wasn''t always really easy. He was really strict and now he realise how unfair he was to him. He wants to make their relationship better, but he doesn''t really know how to do it ''''Do you think you can help me...help us get along better?''''


    ''''I can try and talk to him, but I can''t promise anything...''''


    ''''Thank you so much Prionsa! Now, can I keep this tux on or I have to put it off to pay for it?''''


    ''''Nah, it''s fine! You can keep it on!''''


    It is now the end of my shift and I''m walking back home. I have my wireless earphones in my ears, listening to my music, when I decide to call Gloom to see if he is home. After a few rings he answer ''''Hello?''''


    ''''Hey, angel, are you home?''''


    ''''No, I had a job to do... But I''m heading back now.''''


    ''''Did it go well?''''


    ''''...Kind of... He... he was still a baby...''''


    ''''Oh... Hey it''s not your fault!''''


    ''''I know it''s just... hard.''''


    I sigh, I wish I was there to hug and confort him, but I know what to tell him to make him smile ''''Do you want to hear something funny?''''


    ''''Yeah?''''


    ''''Your father came to the shop to buy a new tux!''''


    ''''WhAt!??''''


    ''''Yup and I found the perfect suit for him...'''' I can''t help but smile devishly at the pun I''m going to say ''''And I have to admit that he was.... Sexy as hell in it!''''


    ''''OH MY.... Are you.... Did you... PRI!!?? Did you just call my father sexy!?''''


    ''''As hell, Yeah! And if you grow up to be like your father.... Then I''m a very lucky man!''''


    ''''I...I don''t know if I should take it as a compliment or not.''''


    ''''You should!...''''


    I get interupted by this lady walking toward me ''''Hum, excuse me?''''


    I take off one of my earphone ''''Yes?'''' I think I know this lady from somewhere...


    ''''Do you know someone called Gloom?''''


    ''''Who is she!?'''' I can hear Gloom ask in my remaining earphone, then It hit me ''''You are the lady that tried to help when... When I was looking for my friend a few months ago.''''


    She simply nods ''''So, do you know Gloom?''''


    ''''Maybe? Who''s asking?''''


    ''''This will sound weird but... I''m her mother.''''


    My eyes goes wide and I can hear Gloom starting to hyperventilate ''''You are his... Mother?''''


    ''''Yes... Listen, I know I wasn''t a good mom... I wasn''t a mom at all actually, but I want to fix this! Even more after what happened on halloween...Please... Can you give this to my son?''''


    She hands me a nicely folded piece of paper. I look up at her and I don''t know what to say ''''I... I will see what I can do...''''


    ''''Thanks!'''' And just like that, she walks away. I stay there, completly frozen, but Gloom pulls me out of my frozen state ''''PRI!!''''


    ''''Huh...yes?''''


    ''''Did... did I hear well? She said she was my mother?''''


    ''''Yes...''''


    Silence on the other side of the call. I shake my head and tell him ''''Let''s talk when we are back home okay?''''


    I hear a snap and ''''I''m already home.''''


    ''''I will be back home in a few minutes. I''m almost there. I love you, Gloom!''''


    ''''Love you too.''''


    We hang up and I run back home. Sometimes I wish I could teleport like he does...
