A/N: NO.6 is not mine. I wish it was.


9. The Mother, II

And sure it happened.

Just as she had finished preparing the meal—she thought of cherry pie, but something else would be better, right, since he had tasted that one?—the door to the dining room slid open. Her snowy-haired son emerged, looking genuinely the happiest than she had ever seen him the past two years, holding securely the wrist of the grey-eyed boy—whom she could see as a very much confident person, but at the moment looking slightly anxious, as well as extremely relieved, for reasons Karan wasn't sure what.

Shion shyly spoke up, "Mom. This is Nezumi."

The tinge of pink on his cheeks was reminder enough of the past days when she would ask her son who this Nezumi person was, and Karan was very, very much glad that this day would finally come.

Carrying the pot of warm cream soup over to the table, she beamed at the two boys, "Dinner's ready."


A/N: Hey guys, hope you like the chapters from Karan's POV! :)

Also, thanks for reading and reviews would be greatly appreciated!
