Mommy...Can you Win Daddy's Love again?

" Sam…"

" Sam….where are you? Where are you hiding? " Katherine was searching for her four years old son.

"Please ….come to your mommy wherever you are hiding in. I am getting late for the party," she called him, breathing heavily as she was tired of searching for him for half an hour.

After some time she heard the giggles and laugh of her son Samson. She quickly walked in that direction and bent down to see him under the study table.

" Boom…. I caught you " she held his hand gently and picked him in her arms.

" You are becoming so naughty, nowadays. " She said with a fake angry look.

Immediately he kissed his mother and placed his small hands around her neck.

" Sooorrrry...mama…" he kissed her nose.

" You are my sweet little chumpkin…" she smiled at him.

Katherine kissed him back and carried him to the bathroom. She removed his clothes from his body while leaving him in underwear. They played with water for some time then she bathed him with lukewarm water. Then she dried his body and applied lotion on his soft skin. She wore him a yellow T-shirt and blue pants. Then she fed him with his favorite pancake and choco milk.

" Mama…I want to come with you. Please….take me with you" Sam pleaded with his baby voice.

Katherine looked at her cute boy and felt so bad leaving him at home.

" Mama...will bring you ice cream and toys," she promised him and walked towards the mirror to get ready for her boss\'s engagement party.

She started thinking again about whether she had to attend the party while leaving her son at home.

She had no interest in attending the party but her boss, Emily Green, is the most caring and kind-hearted person. She remembered how Emily helped her while she was in need and gave her the job in her company. So finally she decided to attend the party.

She invited only a few employees of the company. As she was working as an Administration head in her company. She used to have a good relationship with her both professionally and personally.

A few minutes later, she got ready in dark green colors down the georgette frock. She took her clutch and looked at her son amusingly who was playing with his Aunt, Ruby. He was pulling the strands of her hair while shouting in the baby\'s voice as his Aunt teased him by keeping his toy in the air, lifting her hands.

" Ruby...why are you irritating my Sam?" Kathie asked her.

"Sister...we are playing and enjoying ourselves.." Ruby answered with a small smile.

….

…..

She smiled at them and opened the wardrobe. She looked at a small wooden box in it. She took the wooden box in her hand and opened it. She touched the crystal bracelet from it and gave a small smile.

" Are you going to wear the bracelet? " Ruby asked her.

She nodded her head without looking in her direction.

" Why don\'t you move on in your life? It\'s past. " Ruby asked her in frustration.

" I am happy with my memories. Even though I explain you don\'t understand it " she replied to her sister.

" Those memories are blocking your future. Why don\'t you see it? " Ruby tried to explain to her.

" I am your elder sister. So don\'t try to advise what I should do and what I should not…" Katie said seriously.

" Listen to me and apply for the job as you complete your graduation. " Katie said strictly.

" Katie...I didn\'t mean to hurt you. But I can\'t see you gloomy anymore. It had been many years, I saw your happiness in your eyes. " Ruby said while walking towards her sister.

" I have Sam, you, and my best friend, Martin. I am happy with you all. " She replied.

She walked towards the bed and kissed Sam\'s cheeks.

" I will try to come soon. Take care of him. Bye," she informed Ruby and started walking out of the bedroom.

Before she left the room, she asked Ruby about Martin.

" I don\'t know where is he? I hope he will be in the study while scribbling something…." Ruby replied dreamily.

" Okay then, I will go there and talk to him. " Katie said and left the room.

She walked inside the study room and found Martin was scribbling something on the papers.

" Hi. ...Martin. I am going to my boss\'s engagement party. Hope I will return shortly. " she informed Martin.

" You are looking gorgeous. I wish no one would fall for you," he said with a naughty smile.

" Shut up. You will never change…" she slapped playfully on his arms.

" ouch….its hurts beautiful…" he hissed fakely.

" Martin...Don\'t skip dinner while you\'re busy at work . \'\' she bent to hug him as he was sitting in the wheelchair.

" I am making myself busy. I am feeling ashamed as I could not work and earn for the household. You are taking all the responsibilities. " Martin said.

" I knew what you did for us as my childhood friend. Don\'t talk like this again." She said, keeping her finger on his lips.

There was silence for a few minutes. They both eyes filled with tears. As he noticed her tears, he wiped her tears at the corner of her eyes.

" Have a nice time," he said. She waved her hand and walked out of the house.

She took a cab and reached Green\'s Mansion where the party was going on. She showed the invitation card to the security guards and entered the main gate of the Green\'s Mansion. While she was walking looking at the decoration and lighting, many memories were crossing her mind. She stopped for a while before going inside. She closed her eyes tightly and took a deep breath for a second. She made herself strong.

While walking towards the event, she noticed the banner which was written as

WELCOME TO THE ENGAGEMENT PARTY OF MY BELOVED DAUGHTER, EMILY GREEN…..

She slowly walked towards the open garden beside the Mansion where it is fully decorated with lights and white flowers.
