Steve went back to the bedroom and found Catherine looking at Kenny with a diaper in hand, and she seemed intrigued by something.
"Cath, is something wrong with him?" Steve asked her.
"Steve, I ...," she started to speak but was interrupted by a few knock on the door.
The door opened and Junior asked if he could enter.
"Of course, Junior. You don't even have to ask, buddy," Steve replied.
Junior came in carrying colorful balloons and a bouquet of flowers for Catherine.
Catherine was happy with Junior's visit. "Oh, Junior! How beautiful!"
Junior handed Steve the balloons and the bouquet of flowers to her. Junior hugged her and congratulated her on Kenny. "Tani told me that I shouldn't come today, that I would be inconvenient because you needed to rest, but I wanted to come anyway."
"Oh, no! I loved your visit," Catherine replied.
Steve tied the balloons to Kenny's crib and the boy was looking at the balloons.
"You liked that, right?" Steve told Kenny and smiled.
"Catherine, he's naked, did you forget to put the diaper on him?" Steve told her.
Catherine then realized that the diaper was still in her hand. "Oh, my God, it's true." She put the diaper on the baby and put the clothes on him again. "Now you're ready to meet Uncle Junior."
Junior approached the crib to meet Kenny. "Hi, boy! Welcome!"
Junior noticed Kenny's resemblance to Steve, but said only that Kenny was a beautiful baby.
"Thank you, Junior. Do you want to pick him up?" Catherine asked.
"No, I'm afraid. I'll wait for him to grow up a little more," Junior replied.
"Okay. He loved the balloons," Catherine told Junior.
"I'm glad he liked it," Junior said.
Some time later Junior left and Catherine was thinking about how to talk to Steve about her thoughts, but at the same time she thought Steve would think she was crazy.
Steve was talking to Kenny and deep down he wished Kenny was his son. Catherine was watching that and was thrilled by Steve's affection for Kenny.
Steve picked him up and was feeling like a passionate father. Kenny was also feeling good on Steve's lap and soon fell asleep. Steve didn't get tired of looking at him.
"Hello," Danny said as he entered the room.
"Hey, Danny!" Catherine greeted him and Danny hugged her. "Congratulations on baby."
"Thank you, Danny."
"What's up, Steve?" Danny said.
"Hi, Danny. I'm going to put him in the crib so you can see him better," Steve replied.
"Steve, I'm going to take a shower while you're here," Catherine told him and then looked at Danny. "Do you mind, Danny?"
"Of course not, Catherine. Feel free."
"Thanks. I'll be right back."
Steve carefully placed Kenny in the crib, but Kenny woke up.
Danny came over and looked closely at Kenny while Catherine went to the bathroom.
"Why did you lie to me and the team, Steve?"
Steve didn't understand Danny's question. "What are you talking about, Danny?"
"The boy is your son with Catherine, meaning you were cheating on Susan while you were still with her," Danny said in a low voice so Catherine wouldn't overhear.
"No, Danny. Where did you get that thought from?"
"Look at that boy, Steve. He's your miniature."
"What? Me and Catherine haven't had nothing for years, even now that we are together again we did nothing because the doctor had banned this until the baby was born. There is no way Kenny is my son, that's impossible ..." The papers from the fertilization clinic he had found in Catherine's wardrobe came to his mind. "Or no?" he said as if thinking.
"What?" Danny asked.
"Nothing, Danny. This is not the time to talk about this," Steve replied.
Danny looked at Kenny again. "I still think you're lying to me."
"I'm not lying, Danny."
"Bye, I'm leaving. Congratulations on the baby," Danny said to Steve.
"Wait for Catherine to get out of the shower, Danny," Steve asked.
"Tell her I said goodbye," Danny left and Steve stood there not knowing what to think. He took Kenny's small hand gently. "I would love it to be true, Kenny. But it's too good to be true, nothing in my life comes that easy."
Catherine decided to talk to him about her doubts, but was interrupted again, this time by the nurse who had gone to check her blood pressure.
"How are you feeling?" The nurse asked.
"I'm fine, but I'm really hungry," Catherine told her.
"Your dinner should be here shortly. Your little boy is glutton, right? That explains your hunger."
Catherine smiled. "Yes, he is," Catherine replied the nurse while looking at Steve and Kenny.
After the nurse left, Catherine's dinner arrived and she ate right away. "I was very hungry, and I think I still am. The food didn't satisfy me," she told Steve.
"Do you want me to go out and buy you something to eat?" He asked.
"No. I want you to go home and rest," she replied.
"I'm going to stay here with you and Kenny. I'm not leaving," he said and kissed her forehead.
Catherine stroked his face. "Then go get something to eat."
"I'll go and be right back."
"When you get back, can we talk?" she asked.
"Of course," Steve kissed her and left.
Kenny was grumbling and Catherine already knew he was hungry again. She went to the crib and picked him up. "Hey my boy, come here."
Steve went to a cafeteria near the hospital and was watching the parents who were there with their children. He thought he was deluding himself into thinking that Kenny would be his biological son, but one thing he was sure of: Kenny already had a very special place in his heart.
