The doctor and nurses left Anna alone in her big yet cold VIP room. She cried silently on her bed. Her fingers ran on her stomach, ‘My baby, please forgive mommy for letting you go!’
She remembered her miscariage long time ago when she was with Chris. Her heart was so hurt, knowing that she failed as a mother, to bring her two babies into this world.
She struggled to stand up, she removed the IV needle from her arm and she walked to the bathroom. She takes a look at her own reflection in the bathroom mirror. She couldn’t stand seeing herself like that. She turns on the water and fills the bathtub with warm water. Her eyes stared at a drinking glass on the washstand.
Outside the room, Brian waited impatiently. Soon, Mary came with Benjamin. He ran to his daddy, hugged him.
Mark and Ryan accompany Brian to go back to the hospital. From the corridor, they can see Fai was sitting in front of the room with Mary and Smith.“How’s she?” Brian asked Fai“The doctor said she is stable. She should be awake anytime soon.” Fai informed him“I already called Damian and he was with Daniel too. They’re coming here,” Fai finished his words and he saw Damian and Daniel, carrying Ben on his arm walking toward them.“Daddy….” Ben shouted and struggled to move from Daniel to Brian arm“My baby…You want to see mommy?” Brian hugged Ben closely“Smith, Mary, you
In the next dayDamian and Fai came to the hospital with Ben.“Where is Brian?” Daniel asked“Let’s talk outside!” Fai told DanielAfter Fai closed the door. “What happened?” Daniel quickly asked“Brian left,” Fai said it with cold tone“What?”“Yesterday we talked and he asked me to look after Anna and Ben,”Daniel went silent. He didn’t expect Brian would take that way. “I don’t know how to tell Ben about this!”“Today, during the ride,
A month has passed since Anna returned to London.Damian wasn’t feeling well today and he decided to work from home. He has a meeting with the SF and NY offices and it surprised him that Brian and Smith were there. Damian noticed that Brian looked colder than before. During the meeting, suddenly Ben came to his room, interrupting.“Uncle Damian, could you help me with my iPad?” Ben said it loudly as he walked toward Damian who was on a web meeting.Brian who was speaking at the meeting, suddenly went silent. It has been a while, he hasn’t seen his son and suddenly he saw Ben through the webcam. His eyes stared blankly to the camera as he saw his son around Damian embrace. It was only the last seconds before Anna quickly went into Damian’s room.
Anna was awakened in the morning by Ben’s kisses. When she opened her eyes, she saw a bright smile from her son.“Good morning mommy”“Morning my baby!” Anna pulled him closer to her as her hand laid to his forehead, checking his fever. She noticed that his fever had gone.“How do you feel?” She asked“I feel better mommy!”“But……”“Tell me!” Anna asked again“I am hungry mommy!”Anna smiled, hearing about it. “Tell mommy, what do you want to eat?”
The kiss…….Anna and Fai ended it quickly. Both of them went silent, busy with their own thoughts. Fai noticed Anna looking conflicted. He quickly said, “It's already late, I think it is better for me to leave!”Anna was taken aback, but she responded to him shortly, “I see!” She got up and walked him to the door.Fai smiled at her and quickly left. Both of them felt awkward after the kiss they shared a while ago.The next day, Fai didn’t visit them. Anna spent the whole day with Ben at home, helping him with his drawing. The weekend is right in the corner, Anna was a little bit worried about how she will face Fai. It was just right before lunch, Fai came to the apartment. He acted like normal, which is making
Fai drove Anna and Ben back to the apartment. When he got back to his penthouse, he contacted Smith after he got his details from Damian.“Smith?” Fai spoke to him“Who is this?” Smith asked“Fai! Please don’t tell Brian about this!”“Smith, tell me where are you both?”“Mr Davis, I am sorry, Mr Bolton prohibits me from telling anyone. He just want to spend time alone this time,” Smith explained“Smith! Come on! This is for Anna and Ben. She forgives him and Ben misses his daddy. I just tried to help them. Brian will be happy too.”
Anna was nervous but she managed to greet her, “Mrs Bolton”Cecilia didn’t say anything but Ben who was sitting next to her, got up and ran toward Anna.“Mommy! Is it done? You and daddy are married now? We won’t be apart again?”Anna smiled and nodded at him, didn’t say anything.Ben was overjoyed when he found out. “Mommy, I love you! Thank you mommy!” He said it as he hugged Anna tightly“What do you want to eat for lunch?” Anna asked him“Mommy, will you cook for me?”“Sure, what do
Cecilia went back to the dining table after the call ended and they had a quiet lunch together. When they finished the lunch, Brian turned to Anna, “Honey, could you bring Ben to his room?”Anna understands quickly, her husband wants to have time with his mother. “Baby, let’s study in your room, okay?” Anna took Ben’s hand and both of them went upstairs.Brian and Cecilia walked to the garden and sat there.“What do you want, mom?” Brian asked her“So, you remarried her again?” She asked him with a deep tone“Yes! And you need to know, I’ll fight you if you try to separate us again. I’ll seriously leave you if you do that!” Brian w
