"Kathy.... Where are you?" I called out to my 4 year old daughter. We we're playing hide-n-seek in Parkson's park on a nice day.
"Kathy, baby, where are you?" I called out again. It has been 3 minutes and she haven't come out yet.
"Baby, come on out. Mommy is worried. Baby? Kathy...." I was getting worried, so I started searching furiously.
I was about to call her name again when I heard giggling, I turned to my left and saw my baby girl. Her long curly brown hair that is tied up in a ponytail, she was wearing a blue shirt and a jumper, and her sparkling sneakers.
I ran there and tackled her with a tight hug. Startled, she soon realized it's me and hugs me back.
"Oh my gosh, Kathryn! Don't you ever do that to me again. You made me worried sick." I told her and covered her face with kisses, she giggles.
"I'm sorry, Mommy. I won't do it ever again. I'm sorry..." she said as tears starting to stain her cheeks. I shook my head and started wiping her tears.
"No, no, no, baby. Kathy, it's okay baby. Just don't do that again, okay? If you gone missing, Mommy won't know what to do. She will be hurt and crying, okay?" I said, " you understand?"
She nodded and hugged me with her short arms. Tears stopped. I kissed the crown of her head. I haven't notice that we we're not alone.
I stood up from my squatting position and faced the person that has been with my daughter. I looked at him and my breathing hitched, my heart beat started pumping faster than before. I never thought I would see him.
"Hi. I'm Harry." He said, as he hold out a hand for me to shake. Too shock, I kept silent, biting my tongue.
"Um. I'm A-Auden." Shit. I stuttered. I shook his hand and his face turned into a questionable look.
"Auden? Have I seen you before?" He asked. What will I say? "Yes, I was one if your one night stands and got me pregnant and here is your daughter, standing right next to me." Yeah, no way I'm going to say that to him, well, not now.
"Uh. Yeah. I'm the sister of Liam, Liam Payne? Remember him?" I said. He has a cute thinking look plastered on his face, that I love oh so much. Then, realization hit him as his mouth made an 'O' form.
"Oh! Liam Payne! You're his sister, Auden Payne. Oh yeah, what happened to that lad after college graduation?" He asked with a grin on his face, showing his dimples.
I shook my head, "He's still the same overprotective brother, but he's getting married." I shrugged. He widened his eyes at the information.
"He is getting married? To whom?"
"Sophia. His long term girlfriend since first year of high school." I told him. He nodded.
"Well, that lad has changed into a man now. Can't believe he is getting married now." He shook his head, curls swaying slightly. Those curls that I have felt and tugged on that night before- I mentally shook the memories away.
I felt a tug on my sun dress and I turned my attention to my beautiful daughter.
"Mommy, I'm hungry." She said, while patting her tummy. I chuckled.
"Okay, baby. I'm just going to say goodbye to Harry." I said as I turn back to Harry and see him looking at Kathy. He turned back to me with a confused look.
"Harry, this is my daughter, Kathryn. Honey, this is Harry." I introduced them and I bit my lip. Hoping he won't notice the resemblance of him on Kathy.
"I already know him, Mommy. I asked him to hide me from you." She giggled and I smiled.
"But baby, you know you're not supposed to talk to strangers, right?" She nodded. I sighed and turned back to him.
"Um, so Harry. It was nice meeting you again. But, we need to go. See you later?" He nodded and we started walking back to our place where I placed our things on the picnic table.
He held my wrist and I look back at him, his green piercing eyes staring right at my brown ones.
"Uh. Can I get your number so we can keep in touch?" He asked, I smiled.
"Of course," I took out my phone and gave it to him, he put his number on my phone and mine to his.
"Cool. So we better get going, right Kathy?" She nodded and we bid goodbye and started our way back to our table.
"Mommy, who is he?" She asked and I swallowed hard.
"He is just Mommy's and Uncle Liam's friend."
"Oh. Is he my Daddy?" That question caught me off guard. Yes, she asked this before and I just told her that his father was long gone from here. But, now that I have seen Harry, I didn't know what to say.
Do I say, "yes, he is your father. Your father that doesn't even want to have a relationship, better yet a daughter. And I hid you from him by moving to America."
Nope. I won't tell her that, it might break her beautiful and kind small heart. So I did what is best for now.
"Um. Why won't we eat ice cream before we get home?" I asked her, changing the topic and she nodded.
"Hmm.. why won't we play, Tickle Tackle?" I grin while putting my finger under my chin as of thinking. She squeaked and ran before me to the table, avoiding to be tickled.
"I'm going to tickle you, Kathy. I'm gonna get you! The tickle monster is gonna get you!" I shouted in a monster voice and started walking slowly, giving her a head start. She squealed and runs faster.
While playing, I felt the gaze of someone at my back, but chose to ignore it and continue chasing the love of my life.

Fanfiction"Harry..." He turned to me, a questioning look on his face. I never in a million years thought that I will do this. To him! I pushed him back on the bed and straddled him, a shock look on his face. "I want to touch your hair." I said. "Is that all...
