Chapter 54

Enzo:

I looked at my son, smiling when I saw that he was willing to talk to me.

Katherine was quiet as she walked inside the kitchen. She didn’t say a word at all. Instead, she just stood in by the door, her arms crossed over her chest.

“Do you enjoy the school that you go to? Your mom told me that you enjoyed it.” I asked, looking at my son. He nodded, smiling at me as he did.

“Yes! I love my school very

much. We have a lot of friends there. My teachers are very kind, and we do a lot of math there.” Ashton said, and I smiled.

“Do you like math?” I asked, and he nodded. It was something that he had in common with his mother. She was a person that loved math a lot, it was something that she often did when she was sitting alone. She was smart in her own way and it was something that attracted me to her.

“I love math. I play these games a lot, and mama always plays with me. The winner gets an extra cookie when she makes them.” Ashton said, and I smiled.

Katherine put her hands on my shoulders, gently massaging them. I put a hand on hers, smiling when I looked back at her. She shook her head, and I raised an eyebrow at her. Her eyes held a warning glance, and I rolled mine before turning my attention to my son.

“Do you like math?” He asked. I smiled and shook my head.

“No, I don’t. Your mom was always good at it. She helped me a lot in the past when it came to counting things with work.” I said, and Katherine sucked in a harsh breath. “I am guessing that you are a lot like her.”

“Yes!” He said, and I nodded. He took another bite out of his sandwich before looking at where his mother was sitting. The way she left told me that she was hurt. She didn’t voice it out, but I understood how she felt. It was a mutual feeling. “Why did mommy go?”

“Mama went to answer her phone.” Alaria said, entering the kitchen. I knew that she would
