Mommy...Can you Win Daddy's Love again?

Katherine stepped back from him as her eye caught a tattoo from the right side of his chest to his upper abdomen.

She saw a tattoo that is in a heart-formed lock with added bells and whistles with ornate designs that hold significance from Victorian antiques. The lock displays a hole at the center of It. The piece is depicted in a chastened color palette of black, red, and gold.

Under the design, it was written….

" YOU ARE KEY TO MY HEART … KATHIE…"

She placed her soft palm on it. Her eyes become wet on knowing his love for her.

She hugged him tightly and started crying.

" I am so sorry…..Ad. Please forgive me " she sobbed.

He hugged her back and closed his eyes as he could not see her crying. But he wanted to make her realize her mistakes so that she would never get a thought to leave him again.

" Is that so easy to forgive you for what you did? " he questioned her, moving back from her.

" I love you...Kathie. But it is not enough to stay together. We need faith, hope, and trust. I lost my faith in you and I am not ready to trust you again. I can't live every day in insecurity thinking of when you will leave me again," he said.

" I will do anything to gain your trust and your faith. Give me a chance, " she pleaded to him.

" It's not so easy to get my forgiveness...Kathie, " he said firmly.

" Now I am scared of being close to you. First thoughts arose in my mind, what if you leave me again whenever you come to me. I can't trust you easily this time. I don't live my life with insecurities. You changed me completely with your actions" he said.

She looked at him with tears in her eyes. She remembered how he used to be crazy for her.

" I will try...Ad. I will try until my last breath to get your forgiveness, " she said sincerely.

He smiled in his heart but looked at her with a straight face. 

" If you leave me, I have to take a bath. I don't want someone to think that we are romancing in the presence of our son, " he said in a cold tone.

Instantly she took her hand and moved away from him with embarrassment. She left the room without looking back.

He was so confused about himself for behaving rudely with Katherine. There was unknown fear in the corner of his heart to lose her again in his life. He was vulnerable. He knew what struggle was going on between his mind and his heart.

But he wanted to stay cold-hearted towards Katherine for their future and their son. He wanted to be strict with her and wanted to know the reason which made her leave him. And also he wanted Sam to get mother and father love.

Because he experienced the pain when his father passed away suddenly. 

He knew he was behaving harshly with Kathie but she made him like that.

….

After some time, everyone gathered at dinner. Little Sam sat beside Adrian and Katherine opposite to them. She felt content to see Sam's happiness when he was enjoying his time with Adrian.

" I think someone is admiring his handsome husband without blinking her eyes…" Emily teased Katherine.

Adrian looked at Katherine then instantly she lowered her head. She started eating her food on the plate.

Everyone laughed looking at her.

" Why are you teasing my daughter-in-law? She was admiring her husband, there is nothing wrong with it " Maria supported her.

After having their dinner, Maria instructed Katherine to take some rest. She wanted Katherine to sleep earlier so that her face looked fresh and glowed like a moon.

Katherine took the opportunity to escape from everyone as they were teasing her and making her embarrassed.

She quickly went to her room and changed her dress. Then she laid on the bed. She wanted Adrian to send Sam to her room to sleep with her. But she had no heart to hurt his feelings as he was already away from Sam for many years.

She turned and tossed on the bed as she was nervous for the next day. And also thinking about how to gain the trust of Adrian. 

Suddenly she remembered about Martin and made a call to him. She told everything except Adrian blackmailing her for taking custody of Sam. She doesn't want anyone to blame Adrian. He was happy about the news but also felt sad not to take part in the wedding 

…..

Thomas explained the wedding planner is readied with decoration and other arrangements. Emily and Jasmine were busy arranging the things as per Maria's instructions.

While everyone was leaving their respective rooms, Thomas instructed all to get ready at 9 in the morning. He hurriedly completed the food and left to take care of other Wedding arrangements.

….

After Sam slept, Adrian carried him in his arms to Katherine's room. He could understand how she was attached to his son. So he wanted to make him sleep beside Katherine. 

As she sensed the presence beside her, she opened her eyes and noticed Adrian placing Sam beside her. He kissed his forehead. Their eyes locked for a few seconds. But very soon he realized that it was a bad idea to stare at her because he wanted to act harshly with her. Immediately he walked out of the room without looking back.

He went to his room and laid on the bed. He remembered how she cried hugging him.

 He started thinking if she became pregnant with his child after she went to her home. What situation made her hide from everyone, even from him? Why did she suffer alone while she was carrying his child? Why was she not ready to marry him when he pleaded with him earlier?

He became mad thinking about everything.

After thinking hard, one thing he understood, only three people know the truth about it. 

Katherine, Martin, and Ruby.

But he wanted to know the truth from her mouth. He wanted to wait for her explanation. 

Thinking of everything, slowly he drifted to sleep.
