" Buttercup...I will show you what I can do to get you back???" He challenged her in his mind.
He understood that she still has feelings for him and willingly running away from him. He got angry that she was sharing anything with him. He wanted to find it out by hook or by crook.
" Buttercup...you will see a new version of Adrian from now on…" he mumbled and looked at the empty dark sky.
A small hope enlightened in his heart on knowing Katherine's care for him. He closed his eyes and slept in the same position with content in his heart.
….
….
Ding...Dong…
Ding...Dong….
He rubbed his eyes with the back of his knuckles with the sound. Someone was pressing the calling bell continuously. He knitted his eyebrow, still closing his eyes with irritation.
As the person continued to ring the bell, he stood up and walked towards the main door to open the door, answering them, " Wait ...I am coming…"
He saw the door was closed but not unlocked then he reminded Katherine left when he was sleeping closing the door.
Before the person rang the bell, he opened the door and was dumbstruck to see his mother standing in front of him.
" Mom…" he exclaimed.
" Yes...It is your mom. Still, you remember me?" She said sarcastically.
Then he remembered that she was going to come this morning and told him to pick her up at the airport. But he forgot about it and slept like a log. She walked towards him and smelled his shirt.
She glared at him and yelled, " You will never change. It's my mistake to expect something from you"
" Mom...I am sorry. I promise you that I will take it only on occasion. Believe me" he pleaded.
" I lost trust in you. I will go to my friend's house" she turned away and started walking out of the house.
"Please...mom. Forgive me for the last time," he begged, holding her wrist.
" Fine...I will stay with you but I won't talk with you," she said seriously.
She walked to his bedroom leaving him behind to check how many bottles he broke in his frustration as he used to do. To her surprise, she noticed everything was arranged perfectly in their respective places. Moreover, she was shocked to see his shoes were kept in the corner of the room.
" Oh my God!!! Am I dreaming!!! Your room looks neat. " she rubbed her eyes and examined his room with her sharp eyes.
" You are so sweet...Thank you...Buttercup" he mumbled not to be heard by his mom.
" You don't allow any maid to enter your room and also you don't arrange your things properly. Then how?? " his mother asked.
" That...I arranged it properly as I was feeling bored.." He replied placing his palm at his nape.
" I wish...you stop drinking too much," she said angrily.
" Sure...Mom. You will see your old Adrian soon. Hope you have forgiven me ``, saying he hugged her.
" No...still, I am angry at you." She said and stepped away. She held his ear and twisted it playfully.
" I will forgive you when you take me shopping to buy a wedding gift for my friend's daughter." She spoke in a serious tone.
" Okay. I will take you. First, prepare breakfast for me. I am so hungry…" He asked his mom.
" Sure...I will. Go and complete your brush and bath." She ordered him.
Maria walked towards the kitchen and took all the ingredients to prepare his favorite breakfast.

.....
At Katherine's house
" Good morning, Mumma…" Little Sam greeted her and patted her shoulders to wake Katherine.
As she slept late, She was still sleepy. But she opened her eyes to make her son not sad. As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Sam's Innocent face and smiled at him.
" Good morning, Mumma…" he kissed her cheeks.
" Good Morning, my sweetheart " she kissed his cheek while lying on the bed.
" Why were you late to home last night? I thought some monster kidnapped you" he said with a sad face.
" Monster??" Katherine asked and sat on the bed.
" My teacher told the story of the Monster and the princess. The monster kidnapped the princess to sacrifice her for his evil god but a kind-hearted and handsome prince saved her and married her '' Little Sam explained.
" Monsters will be in stories but in real life, there will be evil-minded people who kill others to get what they want.." she said while slowly caressing his hair.
" What do you mean by evil-minded people?" Little Sam questioned her
" Sam….get ready fast. We have to go out. Do you forget about our plan for this Saturday!! " Ruby interrupted when she noticed Katherine lost herself in her thoughts.
" Yeh...yeh...I am so excited. " Sam jumped with joy and went to the wardrobe to take his dress.
" Where are you both going in the morning?" Katherine asked Ruby.
" Come on... Kathie. It is now 11 in the morning. It will be almost noon soon. And Sam and I planned this plan two days back. So we are going out, "Ruby replied.
" 11 in the morning. How can I sleep so long?" She thought in her mind.
" You can think later. Go and fresh up. I prepared breakfast so after getting ready you have it, " she said.
In a short while, Sam and Ruby got ready. They bid bye to Martin and Katherine and walked out of their home.
After they left, Martin sat near Katherine and asked, keeping a serious face, " What is the injury at your elbow joint.? What happened last night"?
" I told you already that I helped my colleague who was sick" she lied again without meeting her eyes.
" Kathie...I have known you since my childhood. You looked restless and different. Tell me, is there any problem?" Martin asked with concern.
" I am fine. No need to worry about me. Last evening, when I was helping my colleague, I fell on the floor. ``She lied to Martin so that he would never doubt her lies.
He sighed with relief and said, " I was scared when you didn't attend our calls."
" Sorry. ...Martin" she apologized, lowering her eyes. She doesn't want to make him suffer more because of her as he did so much for her.

Little Sam's eyes were shining with excitement as he was going to buy a gift for her. Then they took a taxi to go to a shopping center near their home.
While his aunt was all excited and said, "Ooh, you look so handsome! You look like a little boy!"
He was very fond of his mother. His mother always took care of him. She would bring him whatever toys he liked.
Ruby asked Little Sam what he wanted to buy.
Little Sam said, "Let me think about what I can buy for my mom!"
When they got there, they looked around the mall. They saw all kinds of gifts that their mom was going to love. Afterward, they looked around the mall. They stopped at one place in the mall.
All the stuff there, little Sam looked at his aunt and said, "It's about time for me to buy my mom a gift. I was thinking about buying her earrings or maybe some lipstick,"
" I want to give my mom earrings," he said excitedly.
" So beautiful. How much pocket money have you saved?" " Ruby Replied.
Little Sam told her " $150."
"Okay, I will buy you a dress for your mom. Let's go to a different store, a different type of stuff. Then" she said.
When they left the shopping mall, there were many shops to look at and Little Sam wanted to buy something for his mom other than earrings, so he said to his aunt, "Let's go to a different type of stuff."
They went to a clothing shop first and they both saw all kinds of stuff.
Little Sam was very happy. They began to walk out of the shop when Ruby began to make her own choice. She grabbed a very beautiful shirt. "I want to buy this shirt for my mom," Ruby said.
"How much money do you have?" he asked.
" $200. I will buy this shirt for you." " She said.
Little Sam was very happy.
"They both went to another shop and explored the shop where they saw home decor stuff. He saw a beautiful photo frame. He wanted to buy it but the cost is expensive. They spent his cash already. But he wanted to buy it to keep the photo of his mom.
"Can you buy it?" he asked his aunt.
"How much do you have?" she asked.
"Only 50 dollars left with me." He said with a sad face.
"Okay don't be sad, I'm going to buy you a photo frame for your mom. We have more money."
Little Sam was very happy to hear that. They quickly went to the cash counter and paid for that item. But unfortunately, the photo frame of the item fell on the floor and was broken into two pieces.
Little Sam looked at the person who is the reason for the photo frame to be broken with tears in his eyes.
