Author's Notes: Written for a contest, but managed to tie it in with these 20 themes. hehehe. wrote it over a week ago, just didnt ever post. am sorry.
start-
Ezaria Jule was a busy woman, which was to be expected from a Supreme Councilwoman. She controlled her life, and the lives of those around her, with an iron fist. And she always got her way.
It was a charming afternoon in August as she made her way home from work, early for once. In the aftermath of the war, she'd been relieved of many of her duties, which was understandable, considering she'd been on the losing side. But this loss of control bothered her. With this problem on her mind, she arrived at the house she shared with her son Yzak. He would be pleased to see her, she hoped. Yzak might actually be home for once. With their conflicting schedules, she rarely saw him anymore.
Entering quietly and hanging her jacket on the coat rack in entryway, she silently made her way through the house to the large sitting room, pausing as her ears picked up a faint sound. Frowning, she only peered into the sitting room, her eyes widening with shock as she let out a gasp, blushing.
It was loud enough for the two to hear, Dearka and Yzak both staring at her. Yzak pushed Dearka roughly off him, tumbling from the couch and frantically straightening his shirt, his cheeks stained a rosy red. "Mother, I didn't think…"
Ezaria felt as though her world had just become fragile and shattered. Her son…and Dearka… Feeling nauseous, she turned away, striding quickly back to the front of the house as she tried to regain her composure. This wasn't how it was supposed to be! She didn't ever ask for this!
Dearka just shrugged. Yzak's mother would've found out eventually anyways, he thought to himself as he kissed Yzak again gently. No time better than the present.

And to answer VG Terra, a 20 themes challenge is a challenge that's been posted at the community 'deayza' at Livejournal. It is where you are given a list of 20 themes, and your goal is to write (or draw, but i cant draw shit) a story for each one. hehehe.
And thank you also to anmah, Neko kami, Skweeshy, and Tinted Amber as well for reviewing! -gives you all hugs-
I'll try to update more, now that my evil AP test is over! (its amazing how much pain and cramping you can write through, even though i couldn't move my hand after) i've just lost some inspiration (must be the lack of the need to procrastinate). but i'll hopefully update soon!
