Arya did not speak or look at Xavier. It seemed that she didn't know him.
Xavier said slowly, "Do you forget about me?"
He didn't know his feeling at the moment.
They had had a rather complex relationship before they stayed together. Maybe it was good to forget the past and start over.
Xavier tried to touch her, but Arya dodged. She was unwilling to be touched by him.
It was bad as if she was rejecting him.
Xavier grabbed her hands, "Although we're not married, we've done what couples should do."
Arya was still indifferent. She blinked. "Can you let me go?"
"No." Xavier could compromise anything but it.
"If you're sleepy, I'll hug you and sleep with you." Xavier did not allow her to refuse him.
Xavier lay down with her in his arms. Arya did not resist but turned her back to him. She was not confused and helpless. Now she seemed that she knew everything.
Xavier held her waist from behind and pressed against her back with her strong chest. He kissed her hair and comforted her, "Don't be afraid. I'm not a bad guy. I won't let anyone hurt you, because you're mine. We have a son..."
When Arya heard about Ryan, a tear rolled down her nose.
'Ryan...'
In the morning, Arya woke up. When she woke up, Xavier was still asleep. Last night, he didn't fall asleep until it was almost dawn.
Arya sat at the bedside and looked at him quietly. He was thin, not least his angular face when he lay on the side. She couldn't help but reach out her hand to touch his face.
However, at this moment, Xavier turned over. Arya quickly withdrew her hand. When Xavier sensed that Arya wasn't on his side, he opened his eyes suddenly. Seeing that Arya was still in the room, he was relieved. He held her hand. "Why don't you sleep a little longer?"
"I want to go out..."
"Where?" Xavier's face sank. He thought that she wanted to leave.
"I..."
"Mommy!"
Just as Arya was about to speak, the door was knocked hard. She was interrupted.
'Ryan...'
When she met Xavier's gaze, Arya restrained her desire to see Ryan and pretended to be calm.
"Someone is knocking on the door."
Xavier looked at her. A look of agitation flashed across her face.
'Did she really forget about him or pretend?'
'But if she was pretending, why would she do it?'
"Mommy, open the door. Hurry up." Ryan couldn't wait. He got up early in the morning to see his mommy. But she didn't go downstairs, so he came up to look for her.
He knocked on the door hard with his small palms. Arya couldn't help but get out of the bed and open the door.
Xavier looked at her quietly.
The moment the door was opened, Ryan jumped into Arya's arms. He said, "Mommy, you're finally back. Dad and I have been waiting for you for a long time."
Ryan's eyes were red, "Mommy, I miss you."
Arya resisted the urge to hug him and then stroked his hair.
At this moment, Xavier came over and took Ryan from Arya's arms. Then, he said without looking at Arya, "You will stay here today."
After that, he carried Ryan downstairs. Ryan didn't want to leave and said, "I want to be with mommy. Let go of me. I want mommy."
Xavier tightened his restless legs, "Your mommy is tired. She needs to rest and... think about something."
Speaking of it, Xavier looked back at Arya with a meaningful look.
Arya didn't notice him. She was just looking at Ryan.
Hearing that his mother was tired, Ryan stopped struggling. "I'll be a good boy by her side. I won't let her worry. Can you let me down to accompany her?"
"Ryan, do you want your mommy to stay with us forever?"
