Elijah started to sob softly. Even though his mom wasn't aware of their biological connection yet, calling her 'mommy' felt incredibly special!

"Since you've called me mommy, that means we're family now. You can always share your thoughts with me; don't keep everything bottled up inside." Elijah, through his tears, nodded. "Okay!"

Elysia held Elijah tightly, letting him cry out all his emotions. As their breakfast began to cool down, she gently wiped his tears away and looked at him tenderly, saying, "Let's not cry anymore. Today is a happy day; we should be smiling, right?"

Elijah, with red-rimmed eyes, nodded. He wanted to smile for his mom, but somehow, he couldn't quite manage it.
