章 149: I love you, my son

"Are you really okay?" Jamie questions but she widens her eyes in shock at the reply she got from Ethan. 

"NO! I am not! I am wrecked inside out!" 

...

The atmosphere inside got frozen except for Liam who kept driving despite his reply while Lauren and Jamie frown with wide eyes. Jamie blinks her eyes rapidly startled by his response which got her breath hitched. 

"W-What?" She says still eyeing Ethan who now had his eyes widen and avoiding her gaze. He was now flushed with tinted cheeks making him adorable but he had his face away from their sight. he inhales a deep breath as he comes up with an excuse that is too true to not be swayed away. 

"I...I am nervous. " He replies scratching his neck still looking away. "I have a speech to deliver... uh... I am just so nervous. " He continues now eyeing each one of them looking straight into their eyes. The silence in the car thereby gets disturbed as the laughter from each of them surges within the car.
