Abusive Personality [Stella/Thomas]

"Okay. Thanks for taking me home." I said with a small smile.

"Your most welcome" Thomas replied

I smiled and was about to walk in when Lilyana rushed up to us. "Ma! Uncle Thomas!" she called out with a smile.

Thomas looked over and smiled at his niece, "Hello Lilyana" he said to her

She smiled at him and gave him a hug then walked to me, hugging me as well.
"Hello sweetie." I said lovingly.

Thomas returned the hug, "I'll see you two later" he said to them, he then left

"Bye." we said in unison and watched him leave, before we walked inside.

Thomas waived back, then was gone, inside, Lilyana set her bag down, then sat on the couch

I sat next her, my head still pounding a little. "Sorry I couldn't pick you up."

"Its okay mom" Lilyana replied, "You okay?" she asked

"Going to be." I replied honestly.

Lilyana nodded, "Someone hurt you?" she asked

"Not intentionally. I was... protecting a friend." I said honestly.

Lilyana nodded in reply, "Oh" she replied

I wrapped my arm around her, pulling her close to me, glad I was home now with her.

Lilyana smiled and returned the hug, "Mom, what attracted you to dad?" the girl asked, she was curious

I looked at her, smiling a little as I remembered how I met Keven.
"That's hard to say... just... the first thing that got me was his smile and his eyes." I replied.

Lilyana nodded and smiled, "What else?" she asked

"Just the way he is. The way he looked at me, he treated me. A true gentleman." I replied.

"Awww" Lilyana said in reply, smiling at the same time

I giggled a little and kissed the top of her head.

Lilyana smiled when Haylen kissed her, "Boys don't notice me though." she replied

I smiled a little when she said that.
"You're still young, sweetie, you have a lot of time to find one that notices you." I said.

Lilyana looked at Haylen, "How long do I have to wait?"

"Well... I was 29 when I met Keven." I said. "That is a question I can't really answer."
