ECHOES OF LOVE 75
"We are here,"Jordan announced a little over forty minutes later, he got out of the car and waited for Liam to do the same."Don't be nervous, my parents aren't tough okay,"He told him but he just smiled, the smile lanced with nervousness, he saw his mom running out of the house to come to say hi to them and he went to hug her."My baby is home,"His mom said holding him as if she wasn't the one that sent him away just a week ago."Mom, if anyone heard this, they will think you care about me yet you told me to get the fuck out of your house recently,""That's because you were looking so lifeless and I didn't want to see you looking that way, if not I would have to go hunt him down and steak him from his parents which would have put the both of you in a bad shape with his parents,"Jordan's mom said hitting him on the back and pushing him aside to hug Liam who greeted her politely, Jordan didn't think that was the reason, in fact, he didn't even know his loneliness had been showing,

Jordan woke up to Liam watching him, he blinked and smiled, yesterday had been blissful, he hadn't expected Liam at all which had made it even more beautiful for him, even his parents liked him a lot, he didn't know just how much the guy has come to mean to him until he was away, his whole world practically revolved around this one right now, he was his reason for existing right now, whether Jordan wanted to admit it or not, Liam was his life."Why are you looking at me like that?"Liam asked pinching his nose."Like what?""Like I am your whole world,""That because you are stupid, I love you so very much and my world is you,"He responded."Wow, that's intense, but where does that leave your family and friends?"Liam asked."Well, family is family, so is friends too but you are my most special person on Earth, I can't imagine a life without you in it,"He said meaning every word. His life will be meaningless without Liam, he will just be without purpose."You don't underestimate Lia
ECHOES OF LOVE 77
Liam stared at Jordan as the man struggled to find words to defend himself after what he had said, initially, just in the first few seconds, it had felt weird and he felt kind of jealous but it all washed off when he saw his expression like he was scared that he wasn't going to like it, of course, he didn't like it, no one would like to hear the one they love talking about their ex but he had exes too, so it wasn't an offense but he wanted to see what Jordan would say so he kept mute."So? Why are you quiet all of a sudden? I wanna hear it all,"Liam said folding his hands and staring at him."I wasn't supposed to say that, and it's all in the past,"Jordan replied."Thank God you know it's the past,""You are not offended?"Jordan asked him as if he had expected him to be, there was no reason for him to be, if that was to be the case then Jordan should be too because Liam had exes too."Why should I be? As you said, it is in the past, we are the present, I can't be offended by the pa

"Where is dad and why are you alone?""Your dad is at home, he has to go fishing with his friends so he couldn't make it, don't worry I am not staying, I came yesterday and didn't call you, I didn't even know you were home, now can you let me be? And get Jordan for me,"His mom said."He is taking a bath,""Alright, I will wait,"Liam couldn't believe his mom came all the way from Los Angeles just to pay Jordan a visit."What is this about mom? What do you plan on doing with my boyfriend?"He asked."Don't worry, I am not going to tell him any of your secrets, you can come with us if you want to, I just want to get to know him more,"His mom responded. It seemed that she was telling the truth but he couldn't put it past his mom, the woman was very smart and could be inviting him just so he can let his guard down."Sure Mom, I will come with you guys,""Good, then go get changed, you are not going with us looking like this right?"She said pointing at his shirt and white single."Of co

Jordan stared at Liam wondering how he was going to get the words out to him, he had kept it to himself for so long that now he wanted to just get it off his chest, he hope that Liam would want it too, he really wanted them to be a family, and have kids."Why are you looking at me like that babe? Do you have something to say to me? You have been staring at me for more than five minutes,"Liam said and Jordan adverted his gaze."Just say it,"He whispered to himself before looking up at Liam again, the man was looking at him curiously."I want us to have kids,"He let out bringing his head down again."What?""I want us to have children Liam, it has been one of my big-time dream and life goal, I want a family, and I was hoping we could get it together,"He added."Is that why you have been staring at me Jordan? You should have just said,"Liam responded."Does that mean you want that too?"Jordan asked feeling hopeful, but then his heart sank when Liam shook his head."I am sorry Jorda

"It won't be like that, you just have to channel this your thoughts and give them to getting the surgery done, and you won't regret it,"The doctor advised saying the same thing but using a different approach, Liam already understood all his tactics, and it wasn't going to work on him anymore"Let's not talk about this anymore, shall we? I already said what I said and there is no going back.""But what if your partner wants you to have surgery? What will you do then? I already know you haven't told him which is bad might I say, if you do tell him and he wants you to have surgery, are you going to turn him down too?"The doctor asked.
