K-King returned to the present from his memories of the past and saw, through Com’s screen, his disturbed daughter standing there with her head down in shame.

"Come back to Alpha Planet, my Princess." He hoped that his daughter agreed with his request.

Unfortunately, his upset daughter refused and decided to stay on Earth and live like an ordinary woman. She would live there until eight months later when she births her child, then later, after the same fate that had happened to her late mother, she would be too, be taken away by the Universe Lord.

Eight months later, triplets were born. Two months passed with ease, but at four months it started getting tough for the young woman. Her mood swings weakened her immune system. She cried for her father and then wished to deliver her child on her planet instead of Earth. Then she isolated herself, each day crying in the seashell of her chamber with emotions inside her. She begged the fates for a hug from her lover; however, her dream didn't come true. “Maybe he doesn't love me because what I did to him. He won't come to see his baby and me.”

She found out in the sixth month through Com's scan that she was pregnant not just with one child but three. She was super excited, and her heart was pumping so fast it felt like it would burst out of her chest. After hearing the news, she informed her father a about the good news. Hopefully, the father of her children would be happy for her.

However, she didn't expect his reaction when he found out about her. The final month finally arrived. She stayed inside the seashell, soaking in grief for hypnotising Superman. She felt guilty, and her loneliness had given her so much anxiety and fear that soon she was going to die without handing her children to their rightful father before the creator appeared on Earth and lifted her to Heaven.

She emerged from her memories. She still had her arms around her newborn son, and she glanced down to see him fast asleep. She turned and was about to place her beautiful son back inside his new seashell. She got distracted by a sonic boom from the sky, making a rumble as something approached her space pod.

The baby named G started to shriek. His mother rocked him to calm him down, with a whispered calm voice. "Oh, my son, please don't cry, come on, my beloved little boy...Your mother cannot see you cry."

Her upset son opened his tiny blue eyes and looked into his mother's dark chocolate brown eyes, "You have your father's eyes. You will be just like him." She could sense her son would grow up to be very charming and steal so many women's hearts with his good looks when he became a man.

"Guess who’s here, my son? Your father,” she whispered with a smile on her face.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

She leaned forward and pecked her son with motherly love and faced the entrance to be ready to tell the news to the father of her children.

It was eight months since he had returned from India, and here he was, impatient to know why S-woman called him. Superman, aka Clark, was not himself when he came back to Metropolis, no longer cheerful, and to avoid his thoughts, he focused on his two jobs, hero duty and journalist at the Daily Planet.

He contributed by working with the superheroes of the Justice League and stayed at the Watchtower on the moon most of the time. He didn't tell anybody about his trouble, but his super-team members could sense something was bothering him. Even Batman perceived it. Batman knew better than most how the past weighed on you, so Superman tried his best to conceal his trouble, but the Dark Knight’s brooding gaze saw everything.

Every superhero was concerned but waited for him to open up with them. One superhero found out by himself. Martian Manhunter, the survivor from Mars, read Clark's mind without his permission, but he kept it to himself, hoping Clark would reveal his situation to him.
