My Heart only Beats for You

Hayden Whitlock.

His name flashed through her mind. She was almost certain that Hayden was her son.

Natalie's gaze softened when she thought of Hayden.

He was her flesh and blood.

No wonder she liked him immediately when she first met him, and he immediately took a liking to her too. Maybe this was the bond that they had as mother and son? That day, Natalie went to see Hayden in his kindergarten.

She peered through the fence and watched as Hayden played football with his classmates. He looked smart and cute in his uniform.

A proud smile crept into the corners of her mouth.

Hayden was the best player among the group of children. No one could beat him.

They took a break after the first match ended. Hayden walked towards the bench and grabbed his towel to wipe the sweat off his forehead.

Natalie was amazed by his independence. He was indeed mature beyond his age, since the other children were still waiting for their teachers to help them clean up. Suddenly, he stopped.

He whipped his head around and looked to his left as if he had noticed something.

Then, his eyes lit up with excitement as he ran towards Natalie.

Natalie's heart beat heavily against her chest.

Now that she knew who Hayden was to her, she started to see him differently from before.

"Natalie, you're here! No wonder I felt that someone was staring at me. It's you," Hayden exclaimed happily.

Natalie couldn't help but giggle when she saw how elated he was.

"Yes. It's me, Hayden."

Her eyes lingered on his little face as she took in his facial features.

His skin was smooth and fair, and he had huge round eyes that looked like olives. His lashes were long and thick, just like her own.

"Did you go travelling these days? Now that you are back, you can come home now. Please put me to bed tonight!" Hayden tried to appeal to her.

Natalie suddenly froze.

She could never go back anymore.
