Chapter 6 - You are reason to live

Katherine was startled by Steven's action. She felt weird with his behavior as he was behaving with her like an old friend. 

" He might be a playboy…." Thinking she walked towards her house. 

She pressed the doorbell and waited outside to open the door.  After a few minutes, Martin opened the door, scrolling in his wheelchair.

" Is Ruby sleeping? " Katherine asked Martin.

" I think she is making Sam sleep. I noticed that the room was dark. " Martin asked.

" I thought you would return very late. "Martin questioned her

" That….I was feeling bored. So I came back early…" She lied.

" Yeah….I know you have lost interest in socializing with others, " Martin said.

" I lost my interest in my life a long time ago." She replied in a depressive tone.

He keenly observed her face and her eyes. Then he noticed the injury on her elbow joint. 

" What happened here?" Martin asked worriedly.

While waiting for the cab on the road, I fell on the road accidentally. 

" You can book a cab in advance when you are present at the party. You should be careful. " Martin advised.

"My mobile was switched off to book the cab. So I had to wait for the cab on the road. I will take care the next time" she replied.

" Okay. Good night." Martin greeted her and went to his room.

She quickly walked towards the room and switched on the lights. She noticed her sleeping, placing her hands around his prince. But Sam immediately opened his eyes with the lighting.

As soon as Sam saw his mom, he crawled down the bed and held Kathie's legs tightly. 

" Momma...I can't sleep without you…." He pouted.

Instantly she picked Sam in her arms and hugged him to her chest. Sam wrapped his hands around his neck. She had tears in her eyes but she controlled herself to not let them come out of her eyes. She felt content as soon as his little prince hugged her.

" Momma...how was the party?" Sam asked her.

" Good…" she replied.

" Momma...next time, please take me along with you. Sam requested.

" Sure. But for now, we have to sleep…" Katherine said.

" Go and lay on the bed. I will come after changing into nightwear" she said and went to the bathroom.

After a few minutes, she came back. As it is a king-size bed, Ruby slept at one side of the bed and Katherine slept on the other 

side of the bed whereas Sam was sleeping in the middle. 

" Momma… why are you looking gloomy?" Sam asked her.

" Nothing. I am so tired." She lied.

" Okay. I will sleep like a good boy without disturbing you because I know you have to go to the office. " Sam said.

" No need to go to my job as it is the weekend" Katherine informed him.

" hehe…" suddenly he started jumping on the bed.

" Why are you making noise? Your Aunt is sleeping…" Kathie hushed him.

"  Weekend means ...you will take me to the park…" he said excitedly.

" Okay.  For now, sleep like a good boy." Katherine said and switched off the light in their bedroom.

" But I want to be a bad boy and make so much noise," he giggled.

Instantly his words make her think about her past.

" If you give me a chance, I will show you, what a bad boy I am in the bed…." Katherine reminded Ardian's naughty words.

Tears rolled over her cheeks but her tears were not visible as it was dark in the room. She hugged Sam tightly then slowly patted his back to make him sleep. She closed her eyes, but she remembered the hatred and anger in the eyes of Ardian. 

...

…..

After a while, Katherine noticed Sam's sleeping face. She covered him properly with a quilt and stood up from the bed. She walked towards the glass window and looked outside.  She noticed the empty streets with only street lights. Suddenly, It was raining heavily like cats and dogs. 

The rain droplets falling on the glass and slowly sliding down. She placed her palm on the window and felt the coldness of it.

Her expression changed to a painful smile observing the rain.

" Kathie…..Will you be my Girlfriend?" …

Whenever she notices the rain at night,  Ardian's voice echoed in her ears. A fresh tear rolled down her cheeks.

" I am so sorry Ardian. I broke your heart." She cried, placing her head on her knees and putting her hands around her legs.

….

…..

Slowly she slept in the same position. All of the sudden, there were loud thunderstorms and lightning outside. Little Sam started crying with fear in his sleep. Katherine immediately woke up hearing his cry and walked towards the bed.

" Momma is with you. No need to be afraid. " She cooed at Sam while sitting beside him.

He opened his eyes and placed his head on her lap. She stroked his hair and asked him to sleep. A few minutes later Sam slept peacefully holding her hands. She leaned towards his son and kissed his temple. 

" You are the only one reason for me to live in this world. I love you, Sam.." she whispered with teary eyes.

She wants to live for her son. She doesn't want anything more than it.
