" Ash, there's a lot of women with long hair and a black coat on here," Ella said since her and Ash been searching for Nova's mom for almost 30 minutes and every time they see a woman who fits Nova's description she will always tell them that that's not her mother. Ella was now at the point of regret promising Nova that they will help find her mom. 

" I know, but we promise Nova that we will help her find her mom," Ash told Ella since he doesn't want to break his promise to the preschooler "Nova is that your family there?" Ash asked Nova pointing at a woman wearing jeans and a black coat with long brown hair walking with a black-haired man who wearing a brown jacket, Ash figured that they may Nova's family.

"No," Nova said "I just have a mommy" Nova told Ash and Ella

" Great, we probably won't never find her," Ella said getting tired and  irritated of searching for Nova's mom since she is starting to feel like they will never find her.

Nova heard what Ella and she began to cry at the thought she may never see her mom again.  "I'm never going to see my mommy again" Nova cried.

"Hey, everything is going to be alright", " Ash said picking up Nova trying to comfort her "Ms.Ella was just joking," Ash told Nova trying to reassure her, which seems to do little to nothing.

"I want my mommy! I want my mommy " Nova said crying out loud and kicking Ash.

Ash tried his best to claim her down but nothing seems to work. At this point, he hoping that nobody thinks he is trying to kidnap Nova.

"Nova!"

Ash heard a female voice calling Nova name, "hopefully that her mother" Ash whispered before he turned to see a woman with a worried look and the face looked familiar to Ash "Iris?" Ash whispered.

"Let go of my daughter you creep" Iris ordered, not realizing that Ash was holding Nova. The only thing she noticed was her daughter scared and crying in some man arms. To Iris, she thought that he was trying to kidnap her child.

"Momma!" Nova cried reaching out to Iris. "I want my mommy!" as she began to kick and push Ash away so she can be with her mom again.

"Hey, I said let go of my daughter," Iris said struggling to get Nova back. Ash mind went blank for the moment, not really hearing the things around him. Soon Iris kicked Ash's left leg hard causing him to let go of Nova and Iris to hold Nova again. While for Ash was in pain for a few minutes.

"It's okay," Iris whispered to Nova who was still crying running her fingers through her hair "mommy is here" which caused Nova to stop crying and hugging Iris tightly

"What the hell was that for?" Ella asked yelling at Iris, mad that Iris kicked Ash's leg when they were just trying to help Nova " he was only trying to help your daughter, you didn't have to kick him" Ella said

"Well, he holding my child who was crying her eyes out because she is scared," Iris told Ella "what was I'm supposed to do wait to see if you guys were going to kidnap her or see if you guys were trying to find her mom," Iris asked getting upset.

"Well he was only trying to help her, he wasn't going to kidnap or hurt your daughter, so you really need to apologize to my fiancé" Ella order Iris

Iris rolled her eyes and walked in the opposite direction of Ella, ignoring the strawberry blonde-haired woman, since she didn't believe a word what she told her.

She soon got stopped by Ash Iris ignored facing face to face as she tried walked past him.

"Miss. am so sorry," Ash said trying to apologize before Ella cut him off.

"Ash, do not have to apologize to that bitch, she was the one being rude to us when we were trying to help her," Ella said mad

Iris just rolled her eyes at Ella outburst before she continued to walk. "whenever I need to go home, I need to put Nova down for her nap anyways" Iris said holding her daughter who somehow felt asleep through all the commotion.

Ash stopped Iris again "I just freeze when I saw you for some reason maybe it's I swear I saw you before" Ash explained unable to explain how he was feeling at that moment he saw her "am so sorry you thought I was kidnapping your daughter. My fiancée and I was just trying to help Nova find you, Also sorry about my fiancée outburst" Ash apologized, causing Iris to look up at Ash.

"Aa...sh?" Iris blinked shocked as looked at Ash for the first time since they broke up with each.

"Iris!?! I knew it was you" Ash said, "and you have a... kid?"

Iris just nodded yes and giving Ash an awkward smile unsure what to say next since Ash is Nova father. 

"Wow things sure have changed since we last saw each other, I'm a soccer player and you're a mom to this cute little girl " Ash pointed out " how long has it been like 5 years," Ash asked

Iris laughed nervously deciding to just take a shot and tell him since she may never have a second chance to tell him.

" Uhm since, Nova is four now it's more like four years and nine months," Iris told Ash as nonchalant as probably.

"Hmm, Iris what are you trying to say?" Ash asked confused since he wasn't sure if Iris was trying to tell that he is a dad to a four-year-old!

Iris let out a breath before she straight out telling him " Ash you have a kid and her name is Nova Ashley Ariusu! I am so sorry I never told you". Iris said as almost five years worth of guilt start to come over her from not telling  Ash about Nova. Iris was unsure of how Ash will react to the news. After she told him.

"Iris! Why you nev..." Ash said stopping himself from saying anything finding this news about  "Can we please find a place that more private" Ash asked since it this news Iris just told him is personal plus he scared that someone around them may hear their conversation and sell it to paparazzi or something. The last thing he needed was some child scandal.

" Fine, how about my place sounds plus, I have to put Nova down for her nap" Iris suggested.

"Sounds good to me," Ash said. "Just show us the way"

Iris just nodded before leading Ash and Ella to her apartment, so she can talk to Ash about Nova.
