“But he’s not here… He left with Miss Celeste and forgot about me…” 

“He never forgets about you. Every time I talk to him, the first thing he asks about is you.” 

“Really? What does he ask? No, you’re lying! He wouldn’t ask about me…” 

“Of course, he does! Look…” Alden said, showing him an email conversation. 

“Alden, how’s Ethan doing? Have you been taking good care of him? Remember, he needs to wear sunscreen; if he doesn’t, he’ll get rashes all over. Make sure he eats on time. He hates missing meals, and if he does, he won’t eat until the next one. Take care of him for me, and tell him not to throw tantrums, or he’ll have to answer to me. 

“Did Grandpa write that?” 

“Yes. I didn’t even know about the rashes or the meal schedule until your grandpa told me. That’s why you wouldn’t eat when we missed your mealtime, right?” 

“Yeah… I lose my appetite…” 

“See? Now you know that Grandpa Peter does think about you. It’s just that sometimes, like me, he needs a little time.” 

“What do you mean?” 

“You’re my son, and I love you. I’ll love you for my whole life. But we all need someone to love us and take care of us too. I love you, and he loves you, but… who loves us?” 

“I love you!” 

“One day, you’ll grow up and leave. You’ll start your own family, have kids, and be loved by someone. You’ll find a wonderful woman, and she’ll love you. I’ll be so happy to see that, but in the end, I’ll be alone.” 

“So, you’re going to be with Serenity so you won’t be alone?” 

“That’s not how I want you to see it. She and I started something. At first, I thought we’d just be friends, but then things changed. I started liking her, and…” 

“Do you like her a lot?” 

“Yes…” Alden said softly. 

“But she’s nothing like Mom…” 

“Love’s like that. You don’t always find someone like your first love.” 

“No?” 

“No, Ethan. Sometimes, the person you least expect gets into your heart and stays there. Maybe that’s what makes it magical…” 

“But if you marry Serenity, John and I can’t be friends anymore.” 

“Why not?” 

“Because it’d be weird. His sister would be 

my mom.” 

“You’ll still be friends. Serenity and I will be a couple, but that doesn’t have to change your relationship with

John.” 

“Hmm, it’s not like I’m giving you permission or anything but… do you love Serenity?” 

“Yes…” 

“Hmm, let’s see what happens, but… will I still get to see my mom?” 

“Of course! Nothing will change between you and your mom. That shouldn’t change at all.” 

“So… are you and Serenity going to get married?” 

“Yes… If you’re okay with it, we’ll do it. I really hope you are… Plus, there’s a baby on the way!” 

“I hope it’s a girl. I don’t want another boy. John’s already my friend, so I don’t need another boy…” Ethan said as he rested his head on Alden’s lap, while his father played with his curls. “Dad, where do babies come from?” 

“Ethan… Well… I think babies come from…” Alden stammered nervously. 

Of all the questions Ethan could ask, this was the one Alden wasn’t prepared for–neither life nor his own father had ever trained him for this moment. 

“Babies come from all the love their parents have for each other. That love forms a beautiful baby… When you’re older, I’ll explain the whole process.‘
