It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 1791

At the lobby of S City International airport, Patricia paced restlessly whilst waiting for the arrival of her son Eden. As his flight had been delayed, she could not help but be nervous. What if something bad had happened? After all, plane crash rates had an immense increase recently. The justification of her worries, she realized, psyched her out more than she already was.

Ever since Eden went abroad to study, his return became a once in a blue moon kind of occurrence. Therefore, as soon as Patricia got wind of the news that Eden was coming back, she was quick to roll out the red carpet and redecorated his room at once to make him feel at home.

The young man was still a little kid when he was sent abroad to receive a quality education. Although Patricia and her husband would go for a visit when they had the time, it still made a huge difference to have him back in their own home. It was due to growing up away from his parents' side that a sense of detachment could be felt whenever they lived under the same roof.

As time passed by, Patricia grew more anxious and helpless. Just as she was about to start pacing again, a broadcast announced that her son's flight had landed safely. As a result, her heart responded to the news by thumping a normal rhythm once again.

When twenty-year-old Eden came into view, he undoubtedly looked radiant and handsome, carrying an aura of sophistication which he probably developed from immersing in foreign lifestyle and education. He appeared a bit bohemian, arrogant, and possessed a hint of rebellion in those playful eyes.

"Eden, Mommy is here," Patricia said loudly, waving at her son. Upon seeing her, the young man cracked a smile and approached her. It had been a long time since they saw each other.

"Mommy, you look more beautiful than ever," said Eden enthusiastically. Reaching his mother, Eden gave her a big, affectionate hug enough to smother her.

"Well, my boy, isn't that sweet of you?" Patricia said with a smile on her face. "But I'm telling you. At my age, I can't be called beautiful anymore." The proud mother observed her son with eagerness. He was a lot taller than her now. But no matter how big he had grown, in her eyes, he was still - and would always be, her little boy.

"Mommy, that's not the point!" argued the boy affectionately, "You are still very young and beautiful in my eyes. Now let's get going! I can't wait to go home!" Releasing his hands around his mother's shoulder, he began steering the trolley full of his suitcases. He was beyond ecstatic to get out of the airport, and see the rest of the glorious S City.

"Okay! Let's go home so you can have some rest," Patricia said happily, holding onto Eden's arm. When Eden expressed his enthusiasm, she was over the moon. It had been a few years since he last came back to S City. During his vacation in the last few years, he had been studying all kinds of knowledge to enrich himself. So, seeing him be willing to come home this summer vacation was a pleasant breath of fresh air for her.
