"Hello, Austin. Can I join?"

I grunted inwardly at that question. Wyatt already got the ticket, so of course, he would come.

Austin nodded, and I was tempted to coax him to change his mind.

But then I must remind myself I was the one giving approval. Taking it back would need a logical reason, which I couldn't find at the moment.

Wyatt sat on the empty space opposite me and on the other side of my son. He looked at Austin, and somehow, I felt the odd way he did that. He seemed like someone was longing and in pain. Also, I spotted happiness as well as love.

Did he really know?

"Do you like the book?" He started the conversation.

Austin nodded again, this time more enthusiastically. "Yes. I love Superman."

"Do you want to be a Superman?"

My son tilted his head up so the two most beautiful blue eyes I knew met. "Mommy said, as long as I'm being a good boy and good to friends, teachers, and others, I'm a Superman." His eyes blinked twice after he said that, making

    WYATT"Hello. My name is Karen. Through this video, I want to make a clarification. My previous video showing rotten cookies is not true. I bought them at Ruby's Bakery in good conditions and purposely left them on room temperature for a week before making the video. So, what I said that Ruby's Bakery sold rotten cookies is not true. Ruby's Bakery is legit and has good quality control over their products." The only person on the video said lenghty statements and continued, "I apologize for spreading false rumor and damaging Ruby's Bakery's image. I'm really sorry." And wrapped it up with an apology.I nodded in satisfaction watching it. The video posted an hour ago and had already thousands views. That meant Logan's legal team had done great job on this."How about the others?" I asked Joel, who was the representative working here."They have made clarifications. But we decided to publish them one by one." Joel replied and continued, "After that, we will bring out the news about Foste

    RUBYMom and Dad initially wanted to leave after Austin was awake from the nap and we were done settle our matter. Wyatt and I decided to tell them everything but not in details as some things better saved for ourselves. After that, I invited them for dinner.So here we were. Sitting together on the dining room while enjoying the dinner made by Mom. She insisted to prepare all dishes, so I acted as the assistant for her."What's up, honey?" I asked my son, who sat across me with Wyatt and Dad were on his right and left. He had his foods on his plate. However, instead of focus eating, he was looking at Wyatt and Dad alternately."The three of us have same eyes."Yes. It was obvious that Dad, Wyatt, and Austin shared the same DNA just looking at their eyes. Those clear blue eyes were shining despite the night."Aren't those beautiful? Yours too?" Mom replied from beside me.Austin nodded. "But Mom's eyes are also beautiful. I love her color." He changed the topic to me.I was slightly t

    WYATTOf course, I was surprised to see Mom at the doorway.When I asked Ruby to visit and meet my parents, I never thought it would be the other way around. My parents would visit Ruby instead and we would have this meeting at her house.I couldn't help but be nervous about it. What I feared was Ruby's reaction. It must have startled her to find Mom at her store yet grant her request to visit this house. She wasn't prepared, at least not for this kind of meeting. And Austin? I knew it was the big issue for Ruby."Dad is here?" My voice rose from the shock when I heard Mom's request to Austin. She wanted him to welcome Dad at the doorway meant Dad would be here soon."Yes. Your dad and me drove here together." Mom replied.Not only Mom, but we had to face Dad as well.I turned to look at Ruby whose face was stiff from the moment she arrived home with Mom. And the firm grip on our entangled hands told me she was also nervous for this encounter.I softly tugged her hand, drawing her att

    RUBY[Mom is here.]I sent that message to Wyatt on the way home, of course, with Mom because we were on her car.However, there was no answer even after we almost reached my house. Wyatt might be busy with Austin so he was away from his phone. And I should have called him as this was urgent. But I couldn't as I had to attend the conversation with Mom."So this is where you live." Mom said beside me after we made a turn to a street toward my house, which was a few meters ahead."Yes. The house is number thirty four."Soon, we arrived at the house, and my heart was beating wildly as we stepped out of the car.Oh, God! What should I do?"Your house is nice." Mom commented, but my mind was already elsewhere.It was like my body and mind weren't in sync and my legs moved without my will as they just followed Mom's steps."Should I ring the bell?" Mom's question snapped my mind from my thought and only then did I realize we had stood on my doorway.But when I was about to enter the code, t

    ELEANOR (WYATT'S MOTHER)When Addison came to me with the news of Ruby and and viral videos, I couldn't help but to be raged by that. Even though years took us apart, I knew Ruby never did such things they accused on the videos. She was kind hearted and never puposely did harm to others.Ruby was such a sweet and lovable daughter I wished for, and I couldn't deny that I was heartbroken when she and my son decided to divorce. But I had to let her go when a few years had passed and there seemed no hint of her return. Perhaps, they weren't meant to be together.However, when she suddenly appeared at my doorway with Cookie in hands, hope resurfaced. They were fated and just needed to make a great detour for it to stick them together in a robust bond.It also explained why my son disappear from New York and conducted his work from somewhere. Turned out, he stayed in her city. If not from the videos, I might not know about this.Still, I was furios for whoever made them."The legal team has

    RUBY"Mommy, why are your foods delicious?" Austin's question started a new segment of our conversation during lunch. Sometimes I was wondering how could he never run out of questions?"Which one is delicious?" I threw a question back. I made meatballs soup with vegetables, fried chicken, and rice. Just three menus, but they were more than enough to feed my little family."The soup, fried chicken, and rice." He mentioned one by one while pointing with his finger at each, then added, "All of them are tasty."I chuckled at his way of praising the meals. "Do you like them?"Austin nodded in a bit exaggerated. "I like all of them."I opened my mouth to respond to him, but Wyatt beat me with his sentences."I know why her foods are tasty."Austin perked up. "Why?""Because she thinks about you when she makes these. She pours all her love into her foods."I rolled my eyes hearing that. Such a cheesy lines.However, my son seemed to believe it--it is the truth, though--because his eyes now w
