"I counted my life with smiles, not tears,
Because I counted my life with you, dear..."

A few months later...

KAYON'S P.O.V:

"Its ok Grey don't panic. Everything will be fine my love. Just push harder." I told her.

"I don't have any strength inside me," Grey replied.

"Now as soon as I say three you need to push with all your strength and I assure you this will be your last push." The doctor told Grey.

"One, two, three..." As the doctor counted Grey pushed with all her might. She was soaking in her sweat. I then heard a small cry. OMG! My baby... My baby came...

"Congratulations Mr Pride." The doctor told and I saw my sweet little son. When the doctor was cutting the umbilical cord I kissed Grey's forehead and slightly shifting my head to the left and lifted one of my eyebrows as if to convey her the message that I told you we'll have a son. Then the nurse told me to wait outside. After cleaning my son she handed him to me. Dad then took him from me and said, "Zayon pride, my little Zayon." Kissing my son's forehead.

"It sounds like a rhyming word Kayon, Zayon," I told dad.

"I don't care. He is Zayon pride, our little bundle of joy." Dad told and I saw wetness in his eyes. I kept my hand on his shoulder and he said, "If Mia would have been alive, she would have been overjoyed looking at Zayon. You know Kay when you were born I kept your name by my choice and she didn't complain but later on told me that one day she'll name your son by her choice and this was the name which she chose for your son."

Now my eyes were wet. I still miss her. I thought after having my child I'll miss her less but I guess some wounds never heal.

1 month later...

"Aww... So cute!" Grey exclaimed looking at Ed's daughter.

"Yeah just like a little angel," I replied holding Zayon in my arms.

"She's more beautiful than you," Ed told Alice and she furrowed her brows but smiled when he added, "but don't worry, I'll always try loving you more than her."

"Your daughter is so beautiful, I guess she'll have a line of boys after her. You'll have to be very protective of her." Grey warned Ed.

"I don't have to worry about it, "Ed replied with least concern in his voice.

"May I ask why?" Grey further questioned.

"Because that work will be done by your son," Ed replied with a chuckle.

"Why will my son perform your duty?" I asked him.

"I feel they'll be great friends in future and he'll always protect her the same way how we protected Alice," Ed replied to which Alice groaned and said, "no way. You know Crystal these two boys drove away any other boy who tried to befriend me. Because of these two I never had a chance to date, someone, to have a boyfriend. If someone tried to come close they would threaten him behind my back. You know, later on, everyone started turning their faces even when I gave them a sweet smile, none wanted to talk to me and I don't want any such thing to happen with my daughter. I want her to enjoy her life."

"What?" Ed asked in a raised voice.

"What, what? I'm speaking the truth. I knew it all along how you two threatened Jack, Nick, Liam and God knows how many others behind my back and that's the only reason why they ignored me just after asking me for a date the previous day." She replied.

"Do you mean that you regret not having a chance to have different boyfriends? Weren't two of us enough for you as friends? Or are you regretting something else I mean not doing girlfriend-boyfriend stuff?" Ed asked in an angry tone. He doesn't get angry easily. It rarely happens but now I can understand the reason behind his anger. He didn't express his feelings to me at that time but I'm sure that's the only reason why he took my help in threatening those boys. He told me that they were playboys but a few of them were good enough for her still Ed doubted in his mind that they'll leave her after fulfilling their desire and Alicia is too innocent to understand such things and he doesn't want her to be left heartbroken so I always helped him.

"It's not like that Ed. I always loved you but..." She was cut in the middle by furious Ed, "but what Alicia?" Now he's shouting and I need to interfere.

"Listen both of you don't spoil your day because of some buried memories. Alice, we did that only to protect you from those playboys who changed girlfriends like clothes. They would have left you the moment their desire got fulfilled and we didn't want you to suffer the pain of heartbreak. And Ed all she wants is a bit of freedom for her daughter as we kept her away from many things that she would have had fun in experiencing. Like we never let her have more than two drinks while we drank recklessly when she wasn't there. We took her to the prom with us and she was standing there alone in a corner while we were dancing with others, can you imagine all those times when she was left alone, how she felt? But again Alice our intention was only to protect you." I made them understand.

"It's ok Kay, I can understand but Ed can you imagine how much pain it caused me to see you with different girlfriends. It broke my heart seeing you kissing that bitch in front of all on the prom night. That was the only reason I told Kay to take me home. I didn't feel sick but I felt heartbroken and that's the day when I decided to leave aside my feelings for you. You were protective over me, you told that day that you loved me since our childhood but still, you had a new girlfriend now and then." Alice replied in a low voice.

"I'm sorry Alice for all those time that I unintentionally hurt your feelings. But believe me, none of my affairs was serious, they were only a casual fling. That night when I kissed Masha, it was only a show-off as she was the hottest girl in our college, I mean after you." Ed replied while scratching his neck and we all chuckled.

"Ed, I, the hottest girl in our college? I believed I was a tomboy." Alice asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Of course love. I never felt this feeling of love towards anyone else other than you. Many time I wanted to make you feel jealous by introducing my girlfriend to you but you never reacted and so I thought that you don't have that feeling of love for me so I gave up on you." Ed replied holding her hand.

"Sorry children I came late." We were interrupted by dad.

"No problem uncle," Alice replied.

"When Ed called we were in a meeting and so I sent Kayon first and continued the meeting. By the way, where is Sophie?" Dad asked.

"I told mom to go home and rest as she was here since yesterday. She'll come after some time." Ed replied.

"Now give me my little princess," Dad told and Grey handed him Ed's daughter.

"How beautiful!" Dad exclaimed and all of us started laughing remembering where this statement lead, a few minutes ago.

"Did I tell you something funny?" Dad asked.

"No uncle. By the way, do you have a name for your granddaughter?" Ed asked dad.

"Yeah, as she looks beautiful just like an angel lets name her Angela," Dad replied.

Wow, it's a beautiful name and will suit her perfectly." Grey told and all nodded their head in agreement.
