" I want my son to be with me from now," Adrian said to his mother.

" Yeah… I too want to be my grandchild but I don't want him to separate from his mother. He is a small kid. Try to understand, " she said.

" What do you mean? " he asked in an irritating voice.

" Marry Katherine…" she said with a smile.

" What!!!!! " he exclaimed and stood up from the bed.

" Are you out of mind, Mom? Till this evening you don't want her to be your daughter in law. What happened to you? " he questioned his mother with amazement.

" I have to appreciate her guts for giving birth to a child without being wedlock. I could see how much she loves your child. " Maria said.

" Yeah….she loves my son but not me?? She wants him but not me? " he said sarcastically.

" Maybe she had her reasons to stay away from you. " she reasoned.

" Will you stop it, mom!!! Don't support her, just like Thomas. I am frustrated ". He said.

" Okay. I am not supporting her but telling you to think wisely. As a mother, I know your happiness is with Katherine. So I accepted her even though I didn't like her at the beginning. But now, she is the mother of your child. So I am thinking of Granny of Sam. He needs the love of both mother and father" she expressed her thoughts.

" But I hate her now. I don't even want to see her face" he shouted.

She laughed at his son and said, " Yeah….I know how much you hate her" 

" Mom…." He was annoyed with her laugh.

" Okay. Think about my suggestion, all night and make the right decision," she said, patting his shoulder.

" You can give all luxuries to your son but you cannot buy mother's love with money," she said and left the room so that he could think.

He laid on the bed and closed his eyes. Katherine's crying face flashed in his mind. Instantly he opened his eyes as it was hurting his heart. 

" Sometimes you have to make a decision that hurts your heart but heals your soul…." He thought of his life in his mind.

Katherine and Adrian didn't sleep the whole night. 

...

…... 

Katherine sat beside Sam looking at him the whole night. She lost her last hope in her life to live. She didn't realise the sunrise till Little Sam opened his eyes and greeted her, " Good morning".

" Good morning…" she kissed his forehead.

He sat on the bed and asked with a pout" Momma...when will we go home? " 

She embraced him in her arms. Her eyes became wet with his question. She could not tell him that his father will be coming to him away from her. 

" Mommy…"

Little Sam moved away from her and asked, " Do you know him before me? Why was he talking with you rudely? "

She doesn't understand how to tell him that Adrian is his father. She is afraid what if Sam will also hate her just like Adrian.

" Momma...tell me, Do you know Ad? " He repeated.

" Kathie…."

" Are you awake? " Thomas entered the room.

" Hi….Sam, Good morning" he greeted.

" Good morning…." Sam replied with a gloomy face.

" What happened, little champ? Why are you looking dull? " Thomas asked, picking him in his arms.

" I want to go back to my home," he said in a low voice.

" Why? What happened? Don't you like to stay here in our home? " Jasmine asked from behind.

" No. I want to stay in our home with Aunt Ruby and Uncle Martin, " he said.

" If you go home then how can you meet your father? " Thomas questioned, looking at Katherine. She felt restless on seeing Sam's excitement.

" My dad? Is he coming here? " Sam asked excitedly. 

" Yeah… He just called me and told me that he is coming here to have breakfast with you." He said and instructed the little one to brush his teeth.

" Momma… Why didn't you tell me? Do you want to surprise me?" Sam asked him.

Katherine plastered a smile on her face and nodded her head with tear-filled eyes. She looked at Thomas helplessly as Adrian was going to take him away. 

" Get ready and come out. He is coming here" Thomas said and left the room.

 ….

After freshening up, Katherine came to the living room. She sat quietly controlling the tears coming out of her eyes. A few minutes later, Jasmine came and sat beside her. 

Jasmine placed the hand on her knuckles and said, " I can understand your pain. Thomas and I will try to convince Adrian to change his decision. "

" I will accept any punishment of Adrian. I will do anything to stay with my son. I can't live without him" she cried, holding Jasmine's hands.

" Don't worry. Everything will be alright " Jasmine consoled her.

Just in time, Adrian entered the house along with his mother. He heard their conversation and sat opposite to her crossing his legs. He was examining her face without blinking his eyes.

" My lawyer prepared copies to take custody of Sam" he informed and placed them on the table in the living room.

" Addy... If you separate Sam from her. He will hate you. Please once again, " Thomas advised.

Meanwhile, Sam came running towards them. He stood holding Katherine's hands tightly. Adrian was hurt when his son looked at him weirdly. His anger increased as it was happening because of Katherine.

" Sam...come here" Adrian called him.

" No. I won't come to you. You talked with my mom rudely last night. I don't talk with those who hurt my mom" he answered.

Adrian fisted his hands and glared at Katherine.

" Sam...you should not talk with him like that," Thomas said.

" Why? Sam asked, looking at Adrian.

" Because he is your dad. He loves you so much, " Thomas replied.

" Really…." Sam asked, making his eyes wider.

" Yes, little one.. He is your father and I am your Granny " Maria smiled whereas Adrian opened his arms looking at his son.
