98. Helping Hand

I was struggling with bags, Aiden, and the door when suddenly a helping hand rested over my palm. My eyes moved up to look at the intruder and I was surprised to find Mr. Clayton here. My eyebrows shot up in surprise.What is he doing here?"You?" I asked, my voice reflecting my astonishment."Yeah, I thought you needed some help," he chuckled, glancing down at the bags I was carrying, Aiden's keys and the car."Yeah, but what are you doing here?" I asked him."Well, I came for some shopping. My mother needed a few things. When I came out, I found that my car had ditched me. I was about to hire a cab when I saw you," he explained with a warm smile on his lips, explaining everything to me. "Ohh," I nodded my head in understanding, "that's not a problem. I can give you lift." I chuckled"No, it's fine. I don't want to bother you," he said."Bother? It's completely fine, sir," I replied, a bit surprised by his reluctance."Uppss," he scrunched up his nose. "I can't take a ride from you

99. Watchful eyes

"So, what would you like to have first? Ice cream or ride?" Richard asked Aiden.Aiden rubbed his chin playfully, as if thinking about both offers, before jumping in his arm happily."Ice cream," he giggled."Sure" Richard chuckled and we made our way towards the ice cream stall."One butterscotch and two vanilla, please." Richard orderedHe knows our preferences really well. Because of Aiden, we have hung out a few times and let him know what we like. Earlier, I was amazed that he always remembered our likes and dislikes but now it has become normal.As I reached for my purse to pay for the ice cream, Richard stopped me in my tracks, a look of surprise on his face."What are you doing?" he asked, his eyebrows raised in astonishment.My eyebrows knitted in confusion"Aiden was angry with me and it was me who brought you here to pay the penalty for ignoring Aiden for so many days so it is me who is going to pay for it," he argued."It's fine. It is the same thing." I tried to reason.

100. The crossroads

"Today, I will pick up Aiden," I informed Philip."Why?" he asked, puzzled by the sudden change in our routine."Because it's my day off today," I explained.Richard has opened a new branch, expanding his firm. So tonight he is throwing a party for that. He gave leave to his current employees for today. "You could accompany me," Philip suggested."Uh, please, Philip, just go out with Mia," I insisted.Philip had evening shifts at his office, making it convenient for him to pick up Aiden, whereas Mia had morning shifts. Due to their work schedules, they rarely had the opportunity to spend quality time together. Today, Mia had also taken a day off, and I wanted them to enjoy some quality time away from the stresses of work and family.It would be wrong from my side if I waste his time when I myself could pick up Aiden. "You are not going alone to pick Aiden" he declaredFrom the last one month, since I have encountered Damien again on the streets, Philip is picking him up. He is doin

101. I want daddy

"Aiden" I called out softly when my baby didn't react even after knowing that I had sat into the car. My hand softly caressed his head. "Yes?" He replied but his voice came out very low which is quite opposite to his real self. "I didn't mean to hurt you. In anger, I went a bit harsh on you. Momma is sorry, Aiden." I was expecting him to look up and react, either complain to me about myself or cry but nothing like that happened. "It's ok momma, don't be sorry" he replied, still looking down.Today I have hurt him really badly. He is not ready to even look up at me. My heart clenched and I regretted treating him that way. I should have told him with love but the anger and frustration of Damien leashed out on him. "I have something for you," I said in a soft voice. His head finally lifted up. I took out the chocolate which I bought for him last night while returning home. Last night he already had a lot of sweets so I decided to give it to him today but in the morning I forgot. I

102. Whirlwind of emotions

After his afternoon nap, Aiden's first request was for the chocolate I had given him in the car earlier. While he wasn't as silent as he had been earlier in the day, he still lacked his usual vigor.Determined to make up for the earlier turmoil, I stayed with him throughout the day, assisting with his homework and playing his favorite games. I could see a faint return of the spark in his eyes, but his previous words still lingered in my mind.As the evening rolled around, Aiden seemed to be gradually forgetting the events of the car ride home, but I knew this topic was far from resolved.I agree with my mother that it is not the last time he has asked for a father; he would surely ask for him again, and every time he would try to know more about it. If Damien kept on coming in front of him again and again, then it wouldn't be too late for him to identify him as his father.By 9 PM, I had managed to put Aiden to sleep. I was already running late for a party that was supposed to begin at

103. His pain, regret and guilt

When I stepped into the pool area, my breaths were labored and loud, as if I had just run a marathon. I was inhaling oxygen through my open mouth, and my vision was blurred due to small tears in my eyes.I was still not over what Aiden said in the morning and now with this dance incident, I am about to get promoted, and I could see in the eyes of the colleagues how they are seeing it now.I shouldn't have lost myself in the heat of the moment.I even went so close to Richard. How am I supposed to meet my gaze with him? I know he wanted to stop me to tell me that everything is fine and that I shouldn't overthink but I can't help. He is really understanding and I know that his intentions are pure but it is just me.Lost in my thoughts, I was suddenly pulled back into reality when I heard that voice—the voice of the man who had caused the storm in my life—and still I am unable to forget him."Tesoro," the voice whispered, sending a shiver down my spine.I didn't need to turn around to kn

104. Confession

I blinked twice to sweep in the tears that were welling my eyes, making my vision slightly blurry. Damien disappeared from my sight when I opened my eyes and in place of him, I could see a manly figure there, which was definitely not Damien.With his hands shoved in his pockets, he walked to me, a gentle smile playing on his lips. I was glad that Damien wiped my tears before he could see me."Is everything fine, Angel?" Richard asked in his soothing voice.I nodded. "I didn't mean to bother you. I apologise if, because of the dance, you""No, Richard, it is completely fine. I actually felt good while dancing. It was my passion and I always used to forget about my worries. It happened today as well. In fact, you brought back that feeling," I told him."Don't get bothered by what people might think about you," he said. "They will still talk behind your back no matter what you do." "I am not," I told him with a small smile. "I just wanted to have some fresh air." He cocked his head."I

105. A perfect match

During the dinner, Richard behaved very normally. He was having his meals, mixing with colleagues, and passing his lame jokes, over which everyone laughed because, of course, he is their boss and they didn't want to disappoint him.He maintained his normal behavior with me as well, as if he hadn't just proposed marriage a few minutes ago. Perhaps he didn't want me to feel uncomfortable, just as he had expressed when he mentioned that he wanted our friendship to remain unchanged, regardless of my decision.I have known him for the last four years; he has never tried anything, which made me uncomfortable. He is such a gentleman and I just don't want to break his heart but that doesn't mean that I shouldn't listen to my heart.I have respect for him, and I am grateful for him but I have never thought of him as my life partner. In fact, I have never imagined anyone as such except Damien and that too in my teenage years when I was a fool.I couldn't see Damien after meeting at the pool area

106. Mommy - Aiden day

"Where is momma's Aiden?" I playfully called out, listening for the familiar giggle that never failed to warm my heart. I knew he was hiding behind the curtains, but I decided to pretend that I hadn't spotted him just yet. His feet were clearly visible and the soft giggles passing through his lips didn't go unheard by me. But his theory is as such that if he can't see me then I can't see him as well. That's why he kept his eyes hidden with his palms. "Oh, he is not behind the couch" I acted "Where is he?" With a mischievous glint in my eye, I gently moved the curtain aside, revealing the adorable, giggling Aiden. "Gotcha!" I exclaimed, causing another burst of infectious laughter from my little one, his eyes still hidden behind his tiny palms.I scooped him up into my arms, and with all the tenderness in my heart, I tossed him into the air, eliciting even more joyful laughter from him.The sound of his sweet giggles filled the hall. I couldn't resist the temptation of squeezing hi

107. Mr. Rich: Friend or Father Figure?

"Which case?" I asked, and my heart was thumping loudly in my chest.I assumed that he was talking about the same case, the custody of my son. In the last few meetings, the way Damien reacted, I thought that he just wanted to warn me that he could do such a thing if I didn't listen to him but it seems like he was serious about it."It is a case of drugs." I released a deep breath of relief upon hearing that he wasn't talking about that. Damien just said that to scare me."I fought a few of his father's cases, and now Damien is here. His father's case helped me grow my career quickly. Now I want you to fight from his side." He said..."But it is illegal," I protested He chuckled"The man in himself is illegal," he stated. "We shouldn't be taking his case when we know that it is wrong," I argued "Angel, if you want to grow in your career, you need not think about what's right and wrong. I know it's unethical, but as long as it's not causing harm to someone else or punishing an innoce
