Chapter 130 - First Fight

Thomas and Jasmine went directly to the hospital for a check-up as she was having severe backache. 

….

Adrian and his family reached his Villa. 

When Katherine was supposed to step inside the Villa, Maria stopped her and ordered Adrian to carry her in a bridal way as it was the first time to step in after their marriage.

" Wow...Granny… " Sam jumped in joy, clapping with his hands.

Adrian gave a serious look to Katherine and carried her into his arms. Then he took her into his arms and walked to his bedroom..

He made her stand on the floor and said, " Don't think that I have no self-respect. I touched you only because of my mom's request "

" Ad...Please...listen. You misunderstood me. I didn't push you willingly. I wanted to open the door as someone was banging continuously, " she explained.

" I have no interest to hear your stupid excuses. Especially I don't believe your words " he left the room without looking at her face.

She felt so bad for him and cursed herself to hurt him without her knowledge.

After a few minutes, she came out of the bedroom. She was searching for Sam in the villa. Both Adrian and Sam were missing in the home. So she went to Maria's room to ask about them.

" Aunty...Where is Sam? " she asked in a low voice.

" Do you want to know only about your son or your husband? " she questioned her back.

" That...I was worried about Sam as I didn't find him in the house " she reasoned.

" Adrian and Sam went outside. I don't know where they went " Maria explained.

" Do you want to eat anything? Shall I ask the maid to prepare food? " Maria asked.

"It's okay. I will prepare food for everyone. Sam likes my handmade food, " she replied.

Maria took her to the kitchen and asked the maid to help her with cooking. Then Maria went to her bedroom to take a nap as she was tired of traveling.

…..

She prepared lunch in two hours and waited for them to return home. As she didn't come, she made a call to Adrian. He disconnected the call as he was so angry with her.

She went to her bedroom and sat in the chair. Suddenly she looked at the Bonsai plant which she gifted to him a few years back. She touched the leaves of the plant and kissed the beautiful flowers.

Just in time, Sam ran into their bedroom with excitement to show the toys his father bought for him. In haste, he fell on the table where the Bonsai plant was placed. He tried to balance himself holding the table but the Bonsai plant fell on the floor.

The pot of the plant broke into pieces. 

Adrian and Maria rushed to his room with a loud noise. When he entered inside, he noticed Katherine clearing the broken pieces on the floor.

Already he was so angry at her and on seeing the broken pot and the plant on the floor, he anger manifold many times.

" Don't touch it with your hands, " he yelled.

Katherine stood up in the same place. Sam was scared of his anger. He hugged his mom holding her legs.

" How dare you? Till today, I took so much care of that plant. You don't know the value of it for me. Even it's a waste to explain about it, " he shouted, looking at her.

" Addy...don't shout…" Maria tried to calm him.

" No...Mom. Please...stay away from this matter. This woman left me without any information. She hid from me about my son. I ignored all her mistakes and married her. But still, she is hurting me. I am tired of loving her, tired of chasing after

her love, " he said and looked at Katherine with anger-filled eyes.

Katherine controlled her tears not to come out of her eyes. Maria noticed her face.

" Let's come out of this room, " Maria took Adrian with her.

" Momma… Please don't cry. I am sorry. It all happened because of me. I didn't know it was dad's favorite plant. " Sam apologized and wiped her tears.

She smiled at him hiding her pain. She kissed Sam to not hurt him. She cleared the mess on the floor and carefully kept it on a plastic cover. She wanted to replace it with a new plastic pot.

" Momma. I am hungry…" Sam said.

" Come, I will feed you with my hands…" she took him in her arms and went to the kitchen.

…..

" Addy...Are you out of mind? Is this a way to behave in front of your son? What he thinks of you?" Maria asked him.

" So...You want me to give her a gift for breaking it? Huh! " He questioned back.

" Addy...I don't mean it. You both are married. It's better if you both discuss it in private, not in front of Sam. Already Sam is away from you. If you shout at his mom, he misunderstands you. At this age, any child must have a healthy family, " she reasoned.

" What do you want me to do? " He irritatingly asked his mother.

" Sort out your problems in a calm way. That too when you both are alone in your bedroom. " She advised.

" I don't know why you support Kathie so much!! " He asked.

" I don't have an exact answer for it. But I started liking her .." she said, caressing his face.

They both came from Maria's room and noticed Katherine feeding food to Sam with her hands. 

" Granny...let's have lunch with me, " Sam called Maria.

" Yes...my dear, " Maria sat on the chair and called Adrian to join them.

Adrian silently walked and sat beside Maria. Maria served food on the plates for herself and Adrian. All the dishes were his favorite. He didn't have breakfast properly in the resort as he fought with her. So he started eating one by one, enjoying the food.

" Wow...All dishes are your favorite. Hope you like it! " Maria asked him.

" Yes...mom. It's so tasty. Thanks for asking the maid to prepare my favorite dishes, " he said to Maria.

" It's not a maid but your wife prepared with her hands…" Maria replied with a smile.

Instantly he stood up from the chair and left the food on his plate.

" Ask her to not prepare food for me. We have maids at home for that work. I want her to take care of Sam only, " he said to Maria.

" Addy…"

" Addy…"

Maria called him when he was walking to his room. But he ignored his mother's call and closed the door after entering his room.

" He is so stubborn. It's also difficult to handle when he is angry. Don't mind his words, " Maria said.

Katherine nodded her head, plastering a weak smile on her lips. Maria completed her lunch and took Sam to her room. Sam slept with Maria as he was tired.

She lost her appetite as Adrian didn't have his food properly. She cleaned the table and walked to the balcony. She sat in the chair and looked at the pale blue sky. 

…..

In the evening, Sam woke up and searched for his mom. Finally, he found her on the balcony. 

" Momma… Good evening" he ran towards her.

" Momma…. I am feeling hungry…" he said, placing his hand on his stomach.

She prepared chocolate milk for Sam. Then she taught him to paint a few pictures and played for some time with him.

It noticed the time, it was seven in the night. And it was his bathing time. She was hesitant to enter his bedroom as he was so angry at her. 

After some time, she slowly entered the room and checked him. He found him sleeping soundly. Then she took him for a bath.

….

As there was a huge bathtub, she filled the warm water in it as Sam loved to bathe in the bathtub. Then she cleaned him with soap and made him sit in the bathtub. 

He started playing with water in the bathtub. He was enjoying it thoroughly and splashing water on Katherine's face in between. 

" Sam...you are becoming so naughty…" Katherine laughed.

" I am good boy ….Momma…" he giggled.

Adrian woke up from his sleep when he heard laughs and giggles. He looked around the room and found no one. Then he walked towards the bathroom and opened the door wide. 

He saw Sam playing in the bathtub. 

" Hi Sam"

" Are you Playing or Bathing? " Adrian asked Sam.

" Both...Dadda…" 

"Will you join us? " Sam asked.

Adrian looked at Katherine and remained silent.

" Sam….I will arrange cleaned clothes for you to wear after your bath while you play with your dad, " she suggested.

" Momma...you also stay with us. We can have fun playing together" Sam said.

" No...Sam...I played with you till now. I will go now " she said.

" Are you angry at dad for shouting at you? " Sam asked her.

" You people carry on..." She left the bathroom.
