"I called Mom and Dad to meet me today as well." Reyna informed Cole as he put his black t-shirt on her after bathing her. She was seated on the slab. He just nodded and kissed her forehead.

'I have called them because I want to bring him close to his mother. I can see the unsorted things between him and her are disturbing him, and I just can't see him like this.' She thought, staring at him when he was drying her hair by rubbing the towel. She had no idea the problem she thought was bothering him was trivial compared to what was truly bothering him.

Then he carried her inside the room, and all she could do was stare at her loving man. The way he cared for her flourished her love for him, and she couldn't stop herself from kissing his lips hard.

"I love you, my hottie biker." She whispered after drawing away from his lips, and he just smiled and laid her down on the bed.

"From tomorrow your exercise will start to open your body. I have called a trainer." He told her, putting up the comforter over her.

"So boring." She pouted at him.

He smiled and kissed her pout. "But it's needed for your body, Kiddo. I, Ethan and Ella, will all join you as well." He said, placing his hand on her face.

"It's okay. Nobody has to do all this with me." As she said, he rolled his eyes.

"You think if you say no, I won't do exercise with you." As he asked, she shook her head.

"I love you." She kissed his cheek, bringing a smile to his face.

"I love you more, my kiddo." He kissed her cheek as well.

Cole was out for a walk in the garden with his mother in the evening. There was a complete and awkward silence between them. Their faces were being touched by the breeze, and the trees' leaves were gently swishing.

"Cole, how are you?" Mia initiated the conversation.

"I have Reyna with me. I'm great." He answered and flashed a smile which wasn't genuine. It wasn't that he wasn't delighted to have Reyna with him; it was just that the thought of losing her again was driving him nuts.

His mother could read his face, but she stayed silent because she didn't want to bother him by talking about all those things which were stressing him.

Cole composed himself and asked her, "Why have you again come into Dad's life? What happened to the person for whom you left us?" Cole asked, staring at her with deep pain in his brown eyes.

"He is no more. He left this world five years ago. I met your father three years ago in the cafe when, for two years, I had been trying to move on from the grief of losing the only person whom I could call mine, and I was drowning in the pool of darkness. I never had a baby again after you because I was afraid that I might hurt him as I had hurt you." She was in tears while telling him about her life. Cole was just listening to her silently, her tears were hurting him. After all, she was his Mother, he had a strong connection with her.
