BXBX NOVEL Chapter 105 - Controlling His Anger
" What are you doing here?" Adrian asked Little Sam and picked him in his arms.
" I am here with my mom. She is talking with Uncle Thomas inside. And I am playing here with butterflies" he informed him and got down from his arms .
He held Adrian\'s finger and dragged inside to introduce Katherine.
" Mommy….where are you?" Sam called her.
Katherine came out of the room as Sam was calling her.
She was dumbstruck to see Sam with Adrian and his mother. The glass slipped from her hand with shock as she didn\'t expect them at Thomas\' house. Thomas and Jasmine also followed as they heard a loud noise in the living room.
" Mommy….he is my friend, Ad. I already told you about him earlier, " Sam said with excitement.
Adrian examined Sam\'s face keenly which had the features of Katherine and the same blue eyes as him. As she named him Samson, he understood he was their son.
He seriously walked towards Katherine. His eyes looked like burning charcoal. She stepped back with fear looking at his angry looks.
"Adrian ....we can talk about it afterwards. Please..." Thomas pleaded.
"Why?" Adrian asked.
"Because...." Thomas replied.
" Being my best friend, how could you hide it from me?" Adrian shouted at him.
" He didn\'t know about Sam till Katherine came with Sam. Thomas thought to clear your misunderstanding but…" Jasmine tried to explain to him but Adrian was not in a position to hear anything.
Little Sam was frightened and ran towards Katherine. He hid behind her. Adrian was angry and hurt to see that his son doesn\'t know who he is.
"Katherine.. how dare you to hide him from me?" Adrian shouted.
" Adrian ....please calm down. We can discuss this matter after some time. He was afraid of seeing you angry. Try to understand" His mother interrupted as she understood the situation.
"He is only a kid. He doesn\'t know what is going on. He only knows that you are angry and shouting at his mother. " Maria reasoned.
" Kathie...take Sam to the next room " Thomas suggested.
Katherine nodded and took Sam with her to the next room. She knew if Adrian came to know the truth he would be angry at her.
" Mommy...do you know my friend, Ad? " Sam questioned her.
She sat on the chair and was silently crying for her fate. She has no answer to his questions. She doesn\'t understand how to tell that Adrian is his father.
...
" Why do you hide this from me? I am his father. I should know that I have a child. Why did you hide this from me?" He asked his friend Thomas fisting his shirt in anger.
" Addy….Till today, I don\'t know about Sam. I swear on my unborn child. I met her a month back when she came with her friend to the hospital. I wanted to unite you both. Please believe me. " Thomas explained.
" I lost all my faith in friendship and love." Adrian said in a cracked voice.
Maria couldn\'t see the pain of Adrian. She knew how much he waited for Katherine and how much he craved for her. She was furious at her for ditching his son. But all assumptions for Katherine changed when she came to know that she is the mother of Adrian\'s child and she named his husband\'s name for his son.
Slowly she walked to the room where Katherine was. Her heart moved when she saw her crying silently hugging Sam. She realised that there was the strong reason to stay away from Adrian.
" Sam…"
" Come to me…" Maria called him with love.
Katherine wiped her tears with the back of her palms with the presence of Maria. She stood up from the chair and lowered her head.
" Let\'s start celebrating the party …" She said Sam while dragging Katherine out of the room.
" Thomas ...Are you ready to start the celebrations?" Maria asked enthusiastically.
" Katherine please arrange all the items on the table and inform Jasmine to come here. We should not spoil others\' happy moments because of us. " Maria said.
" Aunt Maria...we are not in the mood to celebrate…." Jasmine said, looking at Adrian.
Then she continued, " I still have three weeks until my due date. So we can celebrate later."
Being a kid, Sam was unable to understand the situation. He looked at everyone\'s faces and asked Thomas, " uncle ...why is there no party now?"
" Because….the baby is sleeping now. " Jasmine answered with a smile.
" Kathie…"
" Why don\'t you feed Sam? Maybe ...he is hungry?" Jasmine advised.
Adrian was silently observing each gesture of Katherine. He noticed how Sam was close to Katherine and how she was taking care of him. He was controlling his anger not to make Sam scared. He fisted his hands controlling all his emotions. After arranging food on the dining table, Thomas invited Adrian and Maria to join the dinner.
" I am not in the mood to have food, carry on, " Adrian replied.
" We should not take anger out on food, It\'s a bad habit. " Little Sam said, wiping his mouth with a napkin.
" Am I right, Mom? " He asked Katherine but she didn\'t reply looking at Adrian\'s angry face.
" Yes dear, you are right. Even though you are a kid you have good sense." Maria replied.
" Thank you, Mrs. Wilson," Sam said.
" Not Mrs. Wilson. You have to call me Granny " Maria said.
" Mommy...when are we going back home? " Sam asked her.
Adrian looked at Katherine seriously as if he was throwing arrows through his eyes. She was afraid to open her mouth and looked at Thomas helplessly.
" You are going to stay in our home as Uncle Martin went to California," Thomas said and informed Katherine to make him sleep in the next bedroom. Thomas also informed Maria to stay tonight.
She took Sam to the first guest room. Sam slept on her lap whereas she was patting his back gently. After thirty minutes, Katherine heard the sound in the room and turned her head. She saw Adrian locking the door from inside looking at her.. She stood up from the bed placing Sam\'s head on the pillow.
