MasukLeo's POV"Oh, what a beautiful couple", an onlooker commented.The other parents seated beside us began to steal cursory glances at us. I didn't realize what was happening until Will's teacher approached us to take some snapshots with our son.She waved in our faces a couple of times.Then, it dawned on me that I had allowed my emotions to get the best of me.Clara immediately took her head off my shoulders and smiled sheepishly like a new bride still trying to settle in with her husband.It seemed like my words stuck to my throat at that instance."Shall we?" Clara requested"Oh yeah! Yeah!", I cussed whilst stretching out my right arm for her to clip hers into.We walked beautifully to the stage, took pictures with Will, and greeted other parents before moving to the garage where our car was parked.Will giggled with Clara all the way to the garage.The journey home was warmly silent but not as awkward as I had expected it to be.I looked at Clara from the side of my eyes, she was
Natalie's POV While preparing everything, Mia woke up and decided to help me, I figured out the perfect clothes and shoes for him and Mia called a stylist. When we were done I went back to Will, who was asleep and I lay beside him.Not long after, Will woke up eager for the school party. He kept on singing and dancing even in the bathtub. When we were done, we went to eat after eating I decided to dress him up.I wore him a cutting-edge outfit inspired by K-pop idols consisting of a sleek red jacket with a subtle sheen, a crisp white fitted shirt, and fitting yellow pants with a splash of red to march.The stylist came and did her job, she got his dark hair gelled. A delicate silver necklace with a tiny pendant that added a touch of elegance to his overall look was strapped to his neck."Thanks, ma," Will said to the stylist. His eyes sparkled with kindness, and his lips curved into a gentle, inviting smile. "Oh my God, he is the most handsome boy I've ever seen, he exudes a sense o
Natalie's POVIt was as if I chanted a controlling spell from my mouth, as soon as I said that he gently closed his eyes and slept. Looking at him sleeping soundly brought me joy. He was so excited about his drama and loved doing it. When I first came to this house he was cold and scared, all because of how he was treated by Clara. I don't know how long he would have hidden his smile and passion but I was happy that he gave me a chance to pull his heart out of the cage that Clara locked it in.I pecked his forehead and straightened him on the bed, I knew I wouldn't fall asleep again so I slowly got up and tried to free myself from his grasp since he was already asleep.I wanted to prepare his meal and set his water as usual but the event wasn't starting early so I decided to give the gigantic house a little tour. I haven't been anywhere except my room, Grandpa's room, the kitchen, Will's room, and maybe Leo's room too.I found a room, I saw some files and a laptop desk, it looked cle
Nathalie's POVI could almost feel the sting of sadness piercing through my heart. It welled up like a bitter lump in my throat as I strolled slowly and carelessly through the corridor that connected Leo's chambers to the rest of the building.I was lost in sad thoughts as to why Miles, Grandpa, Will, and even Mia have regained a measure of trust in me except Leo. "Why is it so difficult to win him over? Oh, Clara! What have you done?" I muttered under my breath."My heart yearns for Leo, I wish I could undo all the wrongs Clara caused you. How do I make it right again?" I lamented with arms akimboA tug at my flower-laced gown jolted me back to reality. I looked in the direction of where the tugging came from and saw Will giggling excitedly as he held onto my hands and pulled me into the living room where he was rehearsing the short prologue he was to recite before his dance crew came on stage. He wanted me to watch him as he perfected his lines.The best I could do was leave my t
Leo's POVWho the hell does she think she is, to say 'our son', she would have been long gone if not for Will, she was never a mother, nor is she the mother of my child.Only God knows what she wants to tell me about my son. She claims she is here for my son's happiness but all she does to him is wickedness."My son's happiness, is what you came to talk about right? Spill out whatever you've got from that gut of yours" I said looking at her angrily, straight in the eye. It was hard to believe that these were the eyes that once drove me crazy."Will wants you to come for his school party," Clara said shooting back glares at me."Which school party are you talking about? A plan to make me follow you to your death trap?''"I am talking about Will's school party. I have no plan to trap you." Clara scoffed."Oh really?" I scorned."Yes!, Will is a participant in his school party and he wants us to go with him.""Why would he tell you about the school party and not tell me? What if you're l
Natalie's POVI wasn't expecting that to be the thing bothering him. I felt more sad and worried as I saw his face and I realized Mia and Miles also looked concerned.''Don't worry Will, I am very sure that Daddy will love to follow you,'' Mia said as she held his hand and smiled. He glanced at her and sadly fixed his face on the food.I don't know why but that didn't comfort him, he still looked pale, it was as if Mia worsened the situation."Will, what's with the long face, is something wrong?" Mia asked noticing how he looked."I don't think Dad will come" he sadly said."Why did you say that Will?, Have you asked him already?""No, but every time I've asked him to follow me to any school event he always says no, it is you that always go with me. I really want my Momma and Daddy to go with me, I want them to watch me as I participate in the school party." Will sadly said and looked at me with his cute puppy eyes.As I heard Will say he really wants his Momma and Daddy to follow h
Leo's lips twitched when he saw what his son had just done. He looked from Will to me as he said,“So this is what you want to do? Turn my own son against me?” He asked and I gulped. Actually, that wasn't my plan but seeing that Will was standing up for me made me so emotional. I didn't mind Leo,
Will and I left the room, heading to the dining, where we met Grandfather with a grumpy face. He looked towards us when he heard our footsteps. “You're awake” he stood up firmly, “How are you feeling?” “I'm okay, thank you very much,” I replied with a small smile. My eyes moved from him to the ki
Leo's POVI turned in anger to see Miles standing behind me. He was the one who had pulled me away. I wanted to question him and ask what he was doing when he yelled, “What the fuck, man! Do you want to kill her?” “Does she deserve—”“Will's at the door” Grandfather called our attention and I pau
Natalie's POVI stood still in the middle of the living room, not knowing what to do. Grandfather had stated that he would go speak to Leo but I doubt he would agree.After waiting for more than five minutes for any of them to come, I began to pace around the living room. My brows knitted together as
