A few days had passed since Erica first saw my house, I was getting ready for work for the first time since I had been sent home from work and was now eating my breakfast.
Rachel was fast asleep, everything had returned to normal again, I was off my cycle. Erica messaged me last night saying that she too, was still in her own cycle and probably wouldn't appear at work tomorrow.
I understood her reasoning, but it didn't make me feel any less sad that she might not be there, even if we both had to act like we weren't seeing each other.
I had an hour before I left for work.
I called my Parents, they lived in the neighbouring country of Ontriovik, It'd be late morning for them, dad would be getting the newspaper and mum would be returning from her morning walk.
I sat there and let the phone ring, it wasn't unusual for them to call me back on their phone.
Both my Parents are Beta's, you heard it here first, I'm a very rare case in an all Beta family.
I hadn't even told them what had happened, and I wasn't entirely sure how they'd react.
Do I tell them about Erica? Ofcourse! No I shouldn't! Gah!!
Just as I was about to give up, the phone rang back.
"Hello Jessica!" My dad said in his thick Ontriovik accent (german)
"Hello Dad, how are you?" I asked him.
"I'm super, I've been tending to the cattle this morning, so I'm a bit stiff in the back actually, but I'll soldier on." My dad said.
My Dad, Mum and Two Brothers were farmers. I didn't like the farm life, so that's why I moved to Estio, and started living in Ritten City.
Thankfully, Estio is a brilliant country that has top of the line universities dotted over the country.
It's also the main reason why everyone I was friends with from my schooling years lives here now.
"That's no good, Is mum around by any chance?" I asked him.
"Yeah, I'll get'er for you." He said to me.
"ANNA!" I heard him shout through the phone.
Soon enough my mum arrived on the scene.
"Hello dear, how have you been?" She asked me.
"I've been, well alright I suppose." I said to her.
"I'll put you on speaker so your father can hear you too." My mum said.
"Alright, can you hear us?" They both said in unison.
"I can." I said to them.
"Mum, Dad, I have some news that might shock you." I said calmly.
"Oh gosh what is it." My mum said.
"I'm apparently an Omega." I said to them.
There was a crash and a bang and I'm pretty sure my dad fainted on the floor.
"Oh get up Harry." I heard my Mum say.
"What's happened?" I asked.
"Your father fell off the chair." She told me.
I heard her switch the phone back over to handheld mode and the door open.
"I'm walking away from the house for a moment, your father doesn't need to hear this." She said to me.
"Alright." I was a bit frightened of what my mum might say.
"Okay, so what's happened?" My Mum asked.
"Well last week I suddenly developed into an Omega overnight pretty much." I told her.
"Heat Cycle etc?" She asked.
"Yes, I've been through all that." I told her.
"Take Inhibitors everyday while on your cycle." She said to me.
"Yes, I know mum, I have been." I replied.
"Oh lordy, so how have you been feeling since then?" She asked.
"Fucking terrible, sorry for the swearing but its the truth." I told her.
"It's alright dear." My mum said.
"You're a strong girl, all your friends are Omega's so it's probably only fair you are too." She continued.
"You're all looking after eachother I hope."
"Yes, we are mum, Rachel still lives with me and we've been fine." I told her.
"Next time when you come home, you'll have to bring her with you." She said back to me.
"Mum!" I said to her, I knew exactly what she meant by that.
"What? Its not uncommon for Alpha's or Omega's to date the same sex." She said to me.
"Uhuh, don't let dad hear you say that." I said back to her.
She laughed.
"Look I won't pry into your life, just make sure that you message me before you come here, otherwise your dad might have a heart attack." She said to me.
"Alright no worries, thanks for talking to me mum." I said to her.
