Chapter ３２

What a cruel mother I was to leave my own child behind. My heart is pounding while I was what I just did. I am in a rush to find my way home.

What if he wanted his mother beside him? What if he couldn't sleep without me?

"I'm sorry, Eaden, mommy will be home." I said to myself while rushing toward home. I couldn't stand what I did to my child. My mind is restless overthinking about what happened.

I ran all the way just to be home in a fastest way I could.

When I got home, Haden was sitting on the couch, carrying the baby in his arms.  While Eaden was already asleep.

Berry told me that Eaden had cried himself to sleep.

I stared at Haden, him with those red eyes that seems to be tired from crying. 

Carefully, I carried my baby upstairs, I walk gently toward the room. I opened the door, and laid him on the bed.

I held onto the edge of Eaden's bed and quietly watched him fall asleep with my heart stirring inside.
