Cato spends the rest of the night sitting in his house, with his face buried in his hands. "How could this happen?" He mumbles to himself.
"How could what happen?" Glimmer suddenly asks.
"Glimmer, I'm sorry. But Clove's "niece" is…my daughter…"
Cato calls Clove and they meet at a café.
"What do you want to say?" Clove asks.
"Look, I'm sorry. I'm sorry for…you know. That night was a-mistake. We were both drunk and- it just happened. I'm sorry."
"I'm sorry for leaving. Sorry for not telling you about things. Because I was scared that if-if I told you, because I was scared that if-if I told you, you would leave me and…" She trails off. They sit in silence for a while.
"Can I see Cindy?" Cato asks. "Can I-Can I like, take her out once a week? I want you to give me a chance to be a good father, to look after her and let her know that…she has a dad that she can go to. Please?"
"Yes, of course you can." Clove smiles. Because she thought, maybe just maybe, they could start over.
Every week, Cato would take Cindy out. To the zoo, the park, a theme park… Cindy was glad to have a dad. Glimmer went with them on a few outings, and Cindy accepted the fact that she was Cato's girlfriend. After being really confused and sad. Cato and Cindy grew back together and Cato loved her.
Clove had to go back to Canada because she had to work there, and coming back was just a vacation. So, before it was too late, Cato talked to Clove. "Clove, Glimmer and I are getting married. A-And. I, I want Cindy to come and live with us."
"What?! No!" She protests. "You can't do that!"
"Clove- It's better for her! To grow up with a complete family."
After a long argument and tears. Clove broke and gave in. For Cindy. After a few weeks, Clove packed her bags and packed Cindy's too.
"Mummy…Where am I going?"
"You're going to go live with daddy." Clove replies. "But I don't want to live with daddy! I want you mummy!" Clove burst into tears and hugged Cindy tightly. "I know. But it will be best for you."
