"He's going to be fine. Let him rest and sleep here for a bit so that he can recover then you can bring him home," The doctor said and Sophia breathed a sigh of relief.

If something bad happens to Caius she doesn't know if she can ever forgive herself.

"So he has panic attacks?" Caden asked, his arms crossed, leaning on the wall, looking at Sophia with a soft gaze.

Sophia looked at him, moving her hand along to the back of her scalp as she sat down on the waiting chair.

"Yeah...I don't know when it started but he has always been like that, probably a year ago," Sophia muttered, hanging her head low, avoiding eye contact with Caden.

She heard the metal chair behind her creak and spotted Caden in her peripheral vision sitting down, still looking at her.

"I think he got it from Grey,"

Sophia snapped a look at him upon hearing him mentioning the name she have always tried to bury.

"I'm sorry, I didn't know you were uncomfortable with that topic," Caden apologized, sensing that she didn

    "Excuse me, hi," Sophia waved at the receptionist who was wearing a bitchy look. "Yes?" The receptionist replied with a sarcastic voice, raising her brows at Sophia. "I'm here to see Caden, can you tell him I'm here?" Sophia asked nicely. "And you are?" The girl looked her up and down. Seeing the expensive clothes Sophia was wearing, and especially her pretty face, she felt inferior and got jealous. Why can't she be like her?! She bet she's a slut that her boss beds with. "I'm Sophia," The girl pretended to type something in her computer and looked at Sophia with a gloomy look, "You haven't made an appointment with my boss. He's not someone you can just meet without an appointment. I know women like you are after, so leave before I get guards to drag you out," The girl barked.Sophia was restraining everything in her to not burst and meet her level since she's far above her. But bitchy girls like her really deserves some humbling, so she decided to go along with the drama."Oh rea

    "Pick what you want, I'll pay," Caden said, as they sat down. There was live music that filled the atmosphere with a romantic air. Everyone was chatting, and Sophia started looking at the meñu."All of these are too expensive Caden, I can make dishes at home, probably even more delicious,"She never really had problems before when it comes to money, or even in the present, but after she became a mother, even though she had money flowing everywhere, she became extra sensitive when it comes to her expenses.She also wanted to teach her son to be frugal and learn that money doesn't just pop up when they need it and it has to be earned. That's why she studied all the necessary like cooking and washing. Not to mention she's not receiving anything from her family anymore and focused on her writing career instead since she's not really interested in business. Thankfully she got her brothers to back her up woth her decisions no matter how opposed her parents was.She wanted to stand on her

    "Mommy! Mommy!" Sophia could hear loud noises coming from beside her. Her bed was moving in a crazy manner as Caius jumped up and down to wake her up.Sophia groaned, wondering what made her son so cheery so early in the morning."Caius, baby, mommy is still sleeping," Sophia pulled her son down and hugged him, caging him in her arms as Caius pushed her face away wanting to get free."No, bad mommy! Let Caius go," The little boy demanded and Sophia chuckled at her son's bossiness and freed him, not wanting to get him into getting tantrums.When Caius got a meter away from her, he fixed his white t-shirt that had a baby white bear's face printed on it and looked at her mother seriously."Mommy, you have to move. Papa will be picking us up any time now," Caius ordered, but Sophia thought he was just joking around and didn't mind what he said and closed her eyes again wanting to get some rest since she had an all nighters from finishing her writing draft."Caius, don't disturb mommy, go

    "Mommy, Uncle, look! Caius is having so much fun!" Caius yelled as he bounced on the trampoline. Caden and Sophia stayed outside, looking at him with smiles on their faces.The awkward atmosphere still hasn't receded between the two of them. "What food do you like for lunch?" Caden suddenly asked on the side. "I'm okay with anything, but Caius on the other hand can be quite picky," Sophia said, waving at her son who looked at their spot."You shouldn't spoil him that much Soph, if he grows up to be a spoiled brat it won't be good for you," Caden said. And they exchanged gazes at each other, but Sophia didn't quite react kindly to what he said."I know my son well Caden, and I'm not spoiling him, he's just picky because of his allergies, and I don't think you're in the place to say things about how I should raise my son. I've done well for three years of raising him alone, and I don't need you to make snarky comments or anyone else's about my parenting style," Sophia harrumphed, cro

Why did she even say 'yes' in the first place? She should have just told Sophia 'no' right? "Don't worry Soph, me and the little guy will have fun tonight," Marcus chimed in. Kate gave him a side look and sighed in her heart.Right...it was because of her boyfriend, him and Caius always got along well, but for some reason the little rascal disliked her, well not really dislike her, but he likes doing pranks to her and always successfully makes it appear like an accident.Like one time, when her and Marcus was babysitting him three months ago, Cai

    “Is this the first time you visit him?” Caden asked. They were now squatting in the grass in front of Grey’s tombstone. The day wasn’t getting any brighter and soon the whole cemetery will be covered in darkness, and the likeliness of fog to shroud isn’t too far fetched given the landscape and location of the place.They did nothing the whole time but sit and contemplate. Sophia upon hearing his question straightened her back and left Caden’s warm embrace to look him in the eye. A nostalgic expression appeared in her face, her eyes gradually dimming with sadness, “I haven’t got the courage before to visit him, the truth is…I might actually still be in denial before, that… he is really gone. It’s just so hard, knowing that I’ll never get to see him again,” Sophia muttered, her voice heavy with emotion.Caden nodded his head, “So what pushed you to finally come here?”“You, I guess,”“Me?” Caden pointed to himself in disbelief.“Well not just you, also Caius.

    "Sophi... babe, wake up," Sophia groaned when she felt someone kissing her face. She never wants to be disturbed in her sleep, but when the person calling her stole a kiss on her lips, her eyes quickly opened, and the charming smile of her husband, Grey, welcomed her sight. His sparkling ocean blue eyes, looking at her with so much passion and love more than she can ever begin to describe."Babe, why are you waking me up, it's saturday," She groaned, moving further in the bed.But Grey also moved along with her, determined to wake his sleepy wife up. "If you don't want to get up then I'm also mot getting up, but I assure you, someone else more loud will come barging in if you don't get up now," Grey whispered in her ears as hugged her from behind. "So be it," Sophia replied without much care, and Grey chuckled at her indifference. He looked at the clock, and when it exactly ticked at 7:30 o'clock the door of their room also bursted open, revealing an angry looking Caius."Mommy, P

"Do you trust me?" Caden asked, gazing at her with soulful eyes that Sophia couldn't resist."Go away!""Hey~hey, why are you so hot today, did I do something wrong?" Caden asked, placing feathery kisses on her nape as she turned her back on him. "I already told you I don't want to go there, do you wish that I sleep on the sand? Is this your idea of a romantic honeymoon?" Sophia complained, huffing.Caden chuckled at her cuteness and didn't think much about the hurtful words she was saying. He stuck his tongue out and travelled it along her nape. Sophia could feel the wetness of his tongue moving along her skin.She tried to stop the moan from coming out of her mouth but she can't suppress it, not when Caden is sucking her sweet spot behind her ears that sent bolts of electricity all throughout h

And in the altar stood two gentleman, one wearing a white tuxedo and the other wearing an earthy brown color."Are you nervous?" Axel asked Caden who was constantly fixing his tie whenever he got the chance. "I'm fine, just a little uncomfortable with this clothes I'm wearing," Caden replied, still struggling to fix the tie that was wrapped in his neck."Well if you say so, but as your best man, I advice you to breathe properly, because I'm sure the moment you see my sister, you will need to breathe sharply as you can," Axel said, displaying a lot of pride for his sister.
