LIFE BEGINS AT 40 - Chapter 25：CHAPTER 25

ERINE

Just like that, he kissed me surprisingly that I got use to his kisses. Every night while I am alone in my bed, his face and kisses that always, linger in my mind.

I wanted to think I was just lack of intimacy with men but I denied it because I am aware that I can live without men in my life but somehow Brandon was different. I felt something for him from the moment I set my eyes on him. There were sparks and I may not believer of love at first sight but now I do.

Every night we see each other my feelings became clearer. I must admit he truly touched my heart. His face was always in my house not just weekends and my son Dean seems to like him. They were closer like a father and son. He seems different when he is with me or with us at home. I know that he was a divorce man but the more I learned to know him he was a loving father. The way he treated my son was just natural of being a good father.

I smiled as I saw them playing PS4 together in the living room. I was in the kitchen cooking dinner for them as usual. It was my moment whenever Brandon is in the house and I give them their privacy to spend time with each other.

I know my son was looking for a father figure even he did not say a word to me. However, I can feel him that is why I let him enjoy his time with Brandon.

I finished cooking our dinner just in time. I went to the living room and they were now sitting on the floor talking about games.

“It’s dinner time.” I said as they turned their heads on me. “Hurry up you two, I am starving.” I added smiled at them as I walked towards the dining area.

The smile on their face was still there as they sat down in front of the table. It seems that they were really enjoying their games a while ago.

“Hmmm, smells yummy Mommy, you are always the best.” Dean said as he kissed my cheeks.

“Yeah, yeah, hurry up and dig in I know you two are hungry playing your games.”

“We got hungry from the smell of your foods, always delicious as ever.” Brandon added.

He was sitting beside me while Dean was in front of me. They started dig in the foods I smirked as I watch them eating. I love watching them.

Brandon put some foods in my plate. “Stop staring at us, you stated you were hungry but then you just watch us only.” He shook his head.

“I love watching you two eating it make my stomach full already.” I grinned.

I nodded as I dig in too. I saw my son Dean smiling widely looking at us.
