I hope you catches the story, and you tell me your opinions, through them I know if I'm on the right track.

Remember English is not my native language, I hope the translation is correct, I check it, but

sometimes I miss some incorrect, sorry.

I repeat, I am not the owner of the characters, I only rely on them for the sheer pleasure of

practice writing stories without any economic interest, and these two characters inspire me.

Chapter 6

The days went by and the romance was going in their favor. – On weekends they organized outings to see cities in the vicinity of London, and they enjoyed every moment with each other's company.

Nora found out from her sister that Chandler was having, according to David, a great affair with one of the girls who are at her house.

Nora was filled with curiosity, she wanted her son to fall in love with that girl and be happy, so she decided to take a quick trip through London for a couple of days. She would never meddle in her son's decisions or choices, she just wanted to make sure he was happy.

On Thursday night Nora called Chandler to tell him she had a couple of days off, so the next morning she was traveling on the train from Paris to London, which would arrive in Pancras around 11, if he could pick her up.

"Mom, what a surprise, it's good that you came, but I can't go look for you, at that time I'm giving classes,"

"Son, for once I'm going, can't you avoid work...? "

"Ok, okay, you know I don't like it, but I'll say I'm sick, what time are you coming…"

"At 11 a.m."

"OK see you"

David asked him, "Did you talk to your mother? Is she coming?

Chandler, not very smiling, answered, "Yes, she's in Paris, she's coming for a couple of days, I guess she's staying until Sunday, although she didn't tell me, and she wants me to pick her up at Pancras, so tomorrow I'll have to say that I'm sick, god! I hate lying"

Monica remained silent, the presence of Chandler's mother intimidated her, and if she didn't like her, if she thought she was a freeloading adventurer...

Chandler approached Monica, hugged her and said with a sad smile, "Well for a couple of nights we won't have our exclusive love nest, but we'll get ready in your room or mine."

David heard them and told them "Try not to make too much noise because I am a light sleeper."

Monica turned red with embarrassment and Chandler laughed out loud.

"Well, we can still use it tonight" according to Chandler

"Chandler we can't, your mother will find out tomorrow…"

"No, by the time she arrives Miki will have arranged everything, now I tell her to start with mom's room."

The next day Monica left for the course, but she seemed very nervous, when she returned she would meet Chandler's mother and that scared her.

David noticed her and said, "Monica, Aunt

Nora is a worldly woman, she wants Chandler to be happy and love you if you make him happy, so don't worry anymore."

Chandler was at the station waiting on the corresponding platform, when he saw his mother get out of the first class car with a small suitcase, which indicated without a doubt that she was only coming for a couple of days.

"Hello son," Nora said, jumping into Chandler's arms to give him a hug and a kiss on the cheek.

"Hello mom, you look good, was the trip good?

"If great…. "Son, how good you look... there is something different that I still don't understand."

"Mom, I'm not stupid, you talked to aunt Olivia, she told you what David told her, and you are here to inspect…"

"No, I am here to share your happiness…. And don't deny me that you're happy, it's in your face, in your eyes, you look very relaxed and that's from making a lot of love…" Nora laughed out loud.

"Mom, please don't say those things to Monica."

"Is her name Monica? I like her, Olivia told me that she met her when she went to say goodbye to David at the airport and that she is beautiful…"

"God, you are a couple…"

"Well, take my suitcase and let's go to the car, I want to get home, we have a lot to talk about."

"Please mom, there is nothing to talk about, Monica and I are dating, in a romance in which I like her and she likes me, we had a wonderful time, but she lives in Manhattan, and she will return there in a little less than three months,"

"And are you willing to enjoy the time that remains?" Nora asked.

"Yes, of course, and when the time comes it will be over and everyone will continue on their way…"

"I understand, like with Grace…" commented Nora.

"No, it's not the same as with Grace…" Chandler said, somewhat annoyed.

"Because it is not the same, she is going to leave and you are going to stay…. I don't see the difference" Nora said defiantly.

Chandler was silent for a moment, it was difficult for him to avoid his mother's interrogations, either he answered or it would continue all weekend, and it would be worse when she met Monica.

"It's different because I feel things for Monica that I have never felt before, neither for Grace nor for anyone, but that does not change destiny, she is going to leave, only this time I am going to suffer, but I knew it since I started, so I'm willing to endure the pain."

"How much harm did your father and I do to you that you are willing to lose the woman you love, just to not return to New York?"

"If she loved me, she could stay here too…"

"Maybe she has more things to come back for than you have to stay here for," Nora said

thoughtfully.

"It doesn't matter, this is my life and my decision."

God thought Nora, from whom he inherits such stupid stubbornness, but I have to wait and not pressure, as I say in my books "love is stronger."

"Ok, let's talk about something else, how about university…"

When they arrived at the house Miki greeted Nora and winked at Chandler, everything is settled.

Nora went up to her room and a while later came down to lunch, invited Chandler to eat at the Indian restaurant and asked him what time the boys were arriving.

They returned from lunch on time, the young people arrived, David ran to hug and kiss his aunt.

"Auntie, you are fantastic…" said David.

"I do everything I can, I spend more on cosmetics than on shoes…" Nora answered with a wide smile.

The girls had stayed behind, near the door.

Looking at Chandler she said "One of these gentlemen is going to introduce me to these two beautiful women" and she gave them a huge smile. -

They both came up to say hello, Chandler first introduced Susan, and then Monica, who was blushing, she couldn't help it.

"It's nice to meet you, David and Chandler have told me a lot about you, I know you cook like gods, I'm going to have to try some of what you prepare, but that will be another time, on this trip during my stay I prefer not to "Work", let's go out to dinner, for a walk, and that way we can chat calmly and get to know each other better."

Monica gave her a shy smile, and she wondered, why does she want to get to know me more….

Chandler made coffee and tea for everyone, except him everyone had coffee.

Son, I can't understand how you became so fond of tea, it must be Marion's fault…. I can't help but be a little jealous of her... "Chandler listens to her more than he listens to me," Nora commented, making a sad face.

"Mom, that's not true, plus they both tell me all the time, over and over again, exactly the same things, they think the same things about me, there is no difference, therefore, I love you both, a different love, "But love at the end," said Chandler.

"As for tea, I got used to it at school, and also at Marion's house... any problem?"

Chandler answered with a hint of annoyance.

Nora didn't say anything, she just raised her eyebrows and smiled at him. -

Chandler confirmed that they were going to be two difficult days with his mother, surely not for the others because she was a born seductress, but for him.

During dinner everyone relaxed and really had a great time, Nora's conversation was very

enjoyable, she told hilarious anecdotes. Monica thought that Chandler's characteristics had been inherited from his mother.

The next morning, Chandler didn't know at what time, Nora took Monica for a walk…. He couldn't believe it, she had no right to interfere with Monica.

But really Nora just wanted to get to know Monica, her expectations, what she wanted from life, what she wanted in her profession. And she liked her a lot as she thought, she was a sincere girl, she wanted a family, children, a man who loved her, and to be recognized in her profession.

When they returned Chandler was serious, but he found a couple of women chatting happily, as if they had known each other all their lives.

Monica went up to her bedroom, Nora approached Chandler and said, "She's perfect, it's a shame that she has to go and you have to stay, but it doesn't matter, there must surely be thousands of women in London just like Monica." She turned around and without

further ado went up to her room.

Chandler was going to answer her, but she was no longer next to him.

On Sunday after lunch Chandler took Nora to Pancras to take the train to Paris.

During the trip Nora didn't talk anything about Monica and the romance, she had already said everything, and she knew she didn't have to push any further. -

On the platform she gave her son a hug and a kiss, and she only told him, "don't miss any

opportunity to be happy."

Chandler smiled at her and gave her a kiss, she just said "Have a good trip, let me know you arrived safely."

When Nora left, Monica quickly called Rachel to tell her that she had met Chandler's mother.

In fact, since Monica arrived, called Rachel every three or four days, first to tell her that David's cousin was super handsome, nice, and that she noticed that there was some tension between them.

Then she told her that she had found out that Chandler's mother was Nora Thyler Bing!!

Rachel couldn't believe it, she screamed with joy, she told her that she was dying of envy that she was in the house of her favorite writer and asked Monica to get her some books that she was missing.

"Rach, give me the titles and I'll see if Chandler has them, on the ground floor of the house, where the service staff's bedrooms should be, they use them as storage rooms, and there he showed me that they keep books, furniture... surely there must be some."

Another day she told Rachel that she and Chandler were flirting all the time, and when they went on the date, Monica told her in great detail about the incredible night they had had.

"Rachel, I can't explain it to you, it's... It's incredible, he's by far the best I've had…"

Rachel asked her, "Better than Richard?"

Monica replied laughing, "sorry, who is Richard, I don't remember???" and she continued laughing.

This time she called Rachel to tell her that she had met Nora, who had been at the house for two days. -

"Hello Rachel, I have news, I met Nora, she came to visit us and she stayed a couple of days, I was really scared at first, but she is kind, friendly, affectionate. Yesterday morning she invited me for a walk and we talked a lot, I think she wanted to know about me, and she gave me the impression that she liked me…"

"Liking the mother-in-law is already a lot…. "Rachel said, laughing.

"Rach, don't go so fast, we are having a wonderful time, but don't forget that in just over two months it will be over."

"And if you stay…. Or if he comes…? Rachel asked.

"Friend, since we started we were both clear that this was going to happen, I have to return home, I have my life there, you, my parents, my job that I am passionate about, and he has his life here, his work, his adoptive family, I already told you, when his previous girlfriend left he didn't want to move... he spent several years with her, first as a boyfriend and then living together, we will be

together for four months at most... There is no other possibility."

"Well, Mon, enjoy everything while it lasts, at least you will have an unforgettable memory of London…"

"Ah, Rach, I forgot, Nora asked me for our address, she is going to send you the books you are missing and every time a new book comes out she is going to send you the first edition.

Thank you, thank you, thank you... I already love Chandler, his mother, his cousin... And please be happy, make the most of this romance and don't give up either, no one knows what will happen in two months.
