"Dad wait up" I called him before he was out of my view.

"What?" he looked at me over his shoulder. "Take Ansh with you" I pointed then looked back at Ansh. "Get your coat and shoes on. You're going with pa" I told him, he rushed off before I even finished. I then looked back at RK who stood there waiting for me to say something to which I only crossed my arms and stared at him in boredom.

"Well..." he pushed his hands into his pockets shifting on his feet feeling uncomfortable. "Would you say something then?" he muttered.

"I should say something? Dickwad you're meant to start by saying sorry!" I snapped.

"Alri..." Before he spoke further Ansh came from behind and stood beside me all ready.

I bent down to his level zipping his coat up for him. "Be good and don't mess about!" I warned.

"Alwight alwight" he huffed. "Can I have coke and chocowate cookies?"

"No you just ate, when we go to Pari aunty's I'll give you something to eat then" I replied and straightened up.

"Don't hurt my mommy pansy" Ansh turned to RK narrowing his eyes. "Or I'm going to suck your blood" he threatened.

"Ansh Go!" I hissed. I didn't need to hear his so called dad complaining about him again.

He then copied what my father did to guys who approached me, he pointed two of his fingers to his own eyes then pointed to RK silently telling him he'll be watching to which RK's eyes grew wide in surprise or more like shock.

"Ansh!" I called his name firmly.

"Alwight babe. Keep your hair on" he replied and ran down the driveway over to my father and climbed up in his arms.

"Bye mommy" he yelled waving at me.

I waved back then turned back to RK. "What are you here for?" I questioned to which he looked as if he were trying to figure out himself what he was here for. "If you're here to complain again then you can go to hell!" I clipped out before he responded.

"No, can I please come in?" he questioned.

"I don't let bas***ds in my house" I responded back. "So what do you want to say?"

"Obviously we got off the wrong foot" he started.

"Wrong foot? Seriously?" I clipped out.

"Okay fine. We're in a bigger whole than we ever expected and you know I want to try to make it right"

"Oh you want to make it right? I'm sure you said that 2 weeks ago then ran for your life within the hour!" I snapped reminding him of that day.

"Okay I admit I was wrong. I understand that. but you need to see from my point of view, in 24hrs I learned I had a son and then the thought of the responsibilities and the..."he paused. "I freaked out! Heck I've got a 4yr old son and one who isn't exactly normal"

"Don't you dare say my son isn't normal. He has his moments but he sure as hell is more normal than you'll ever be" I rambled on.

"Alright listen" he cut in. "I looked for you" He stated quickly.

"What?" I frowned in confusion taking a step back.

"After that night I didn't remember much but I looked for you" he muttered. "I've been looking for you" he brushed his hand through his hair.

I shook my head. "You trying to seduce me so you can take away my son or something?" I stepped back. "Because it sure as hell ain't happening"

"f**k no. Yeah you're hot" he shrugged. "But I would never think of taking Ansh away from you"

"So what are you here for?"

"Can we take this one day at a time? I've gotten used to the idea of having a son over the 2 weeks and I thought about us" he pointed between the space between us both. "I want a stable family where Ansh can grow up with both his parents. And my Dadima will want it as well because I can tell you she'll f**king shoot me with my granddad's gun when she finds out about Ansh"

"Good. I hope she shoots you where it hurts" I retorted back.

"I deserve that" he sighed. "So can we take it one day at a time?" he asked.

"You're going to work on your relationship with Ansh not me" I told him firmly.

"Alright" he nodded. I stepped inside and left the door open for him to follow, he walked in and closed the door behind him.

"I'll be back" I told him leaving him the living room and headed upstairs to my room, I stripped of my pyjamas and slipped into a tank top and my dark blue jeans. Brushing my hair I scrunched up into a messy bun then slipped on my jacket, once I'd slipped on my heels I headed down all dressed and ready to go to Pari's. I grabbed my phone off the coffee table and called my dad telling him to bring back Ansh.

They came through the door in 10 minutes, Ansh beamed at me as he walked in.

"Mommy I wana tattoo like pa" he told me pushing his coat off and pointed to his uppers arms. "I wana snake and damon on it with his vampire teeth and blood" he continued.

"Dad! What the hell I told you not to let him watch that" I glared at him.

"Well what else can I show him at 10 o clock?" he shrugged and settled comfortably on the sofa.

I picked up a cushion and hit my dad's arm. "10! He's meant to be bed by 9! That's why I put him to bed at 9"

"Oh" he looked thoughtful. "I thought you put him at 9 so you could get drunk!"

"Right. Get out" I tugged on his arm and pulled him. "You're banned!"

"I'm joking" he laughed. "Ansh look what your monster mommy is doing" he yelled laughing louder now which made it harder for me to push him out.

Ansh shouted laughing and jumping in excitement. "Mommy can I punch pa now?" he asked. "I wanna join"

"Zip it" I shot. "Now you can go"

"Alright alright" he held up his hands laughing then walked down the driveway. "She bites in bed, be careful" he yelled. My eyes widened in shock, I slammed the door closed and turned to see RK looking at me in shock.

"Yeah you can run away if you want now" I snapped frustrated with my dad and with the way RK was staring.

He cleared his throat. "I'm not running" he told me.

I looked at him for a moment then turned to Ansh.

"Ansh you're going out with him today for an hour" I told him.

"No!" he frowned narrowing his eyes dangerously.

"Aren't you coming?" RK interrupted.

"And why should I? You want to build a relationship with him, not with me" I replied grabbing my bag.

"I'm not going with him" Ansh jumped over to my side hugging my leg tightly. "Pwease don't mommy. I pwomise to be good, pwease pwease. Don't sell me" he cried.

"What? Who the hell said I'm going to sell you to him?" I asked tugging him to his feet.

"Pa said. He said if I be naughty you're going to sell me" he sniffed.

"Honey I will sell you one day but I wouldn't be so nice and sell you to him, I'm going to sell you off to the wicked witch" I responded calmly picking his coat up then knelt before him helping him into it.

"Mommy!" he whined frowning at me.

"Alright whatever. Even if I sold you off, the buyer would only send you back" I explained and stood to my feet. "Go for an hour"

"1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10" he counted on his fingers. "10 makes hour. Hour's gone mommy" he grinned.

I rolled my eyes shaking my head at him then looked at RK who looked confused and uncomfortable.

"Alright I'll come" I told him and he relaxed sighing in relief. Was he that bloody scared to take his own kid out? I mentally wondered grabbing my keys.

"Wait" I stopped at the door and walked back into the living room opening the drawer, I grabbed the can and slipped into my bag.

"Why do you need tha mace can for?" RK asked looking at me stunned.

"So you don't try any cheap tricks" I replied.

"How about we take my car?" he suggested as we walked down the driveway.

"No we're going separately. I've got somewhere to go after" I replied. "Where do you wanna go?" I asked heading towards my car.

"Park" he replied.

"The place where he made your life hell in an hour. You sure?"

He nodded. "Yeah" he then walked over to his car and settled inside, I buckled Ansh up and settled at the front and pulled away from the driveway and headed down the street driving towards the park with RK following behind.

"Ansh stay close" I told him as we walked down the stony path together. He nodded and rushed towards the large pond where there was a small barrier to stop kids from getting to near the pond. The ducks were out swimming and Ansh seemed excited.

"Look it's ducks" he pointed. "I want bread mommy, I wanna feed them" he told me.

"Well you're going to have to watch them instead. I didn't bring any" I replied sitting down on the bench nearby keeping my eyes on Ansh.

"How about I get some? There's a shop just near" RK suggested.

"Yeah yeah. Get it" Ansh responded jumping with excitement. Seeing Ansh now I didn't think it'd be too hard to win him over I guess unless he decided a minute later he hates RK but for now it's working. I nodded at RK and he jogged back the way we came.

"I want my lolly pop" Ansh walked over towards me.

"It's in my bag" I replied taking out my phone and saw the number of messages I had and started scrolling through them.

"Oooh what's this?" Ansh sounded curious with excitement. I looked up and noted the can he held in his hand, I lunged for it and tried to take it before he pressed it, I screamed falling onto my back because I myself pressed it and the hot liquid sprayed against my own eyes as I'd taken it off Ansh.

"Mommys dying" Ansh yelled. "Mommy!!!! Help! Superman! Batman! You all suck!" he shouted desperately. I couldn't see much and the f**king spray hit me twice in one week. Just my f**king luck. I moaned sprawled on my knees and patting for my bag, once I grabbed it I pushed the can inside and zipped my bag up with difficulty.

I rubbed my eyes (very clever aren't I?) screaming and muttering a string of curses.

"Mommy" Ansh cried.

"Move back!" I yelled. I couldn't have him near me or where the spray might have contaminated the air which will only make his eyes sting as badly as mine did.

"Are you okay?" I heard a soft gentle tone call out and could hear the mutterings. Great I've attracted a crowd. I squinted blinking rapidly hoping to see something but tears blurred my vision and the stinging pain didn't allow me to open my eyes.

"Do I f**king look okay?" I yelled angrily.

"Oh f**k" I groaned. "Where's my phone?" I patted the ground.

"Call superman!" Ansh demanded. "Call him" he screamed. "Mommy's dying" f**king hell. Some sort of son he is, he wants me dead. f**k sakes. Talk about loyalty. And calling his superhero's. What the f**k will they do? Superman please use your eyes to heal mine I thought mentally.

"Hello" I heard someone speak. "Yes I think we need the police and ambulance. There's a woman she sounds like she's run away from the mental hospital"

"Bitch!" I yelled rubbing my eyes even more furiously hoping to rub away the stinging liquid and open my eyes to teach the bitches a lesson. "f**king dogs, my eyes are melting and you're calling me f**king mental. Mental is your dad, your mom, your f**king family" I screamed. "Where's my f**king phone?" I groaned and patted the ground.

"Mommy" Ansh called.

"Go and jump in the pond!" I screamed. "My eyes is on fire... Phone where are you?"

"What happened?" I heard RK's voice.

"That Ansh" I screamed back wanting to cry right now. The whole town will be talking about me because they f**king know how to spread shit around in 60 seconds or less.

"I wasn't going to eat you, you know" I felt him carry me up into his arms. "Ansh come on" he called and started moving. "You should've left the mace can at home" he told me.

"Whatever. Wait" I jolted in his arms and he tightened his hold stopping us from falling over.

"What?"

"My bag, and phone" I muttered.

"Ansh get your mommy's bag and phone" he stopped.

"You ought to be careful with her" Some yelled from the back.

"Ambulance is coming" someone called.

"It's okay" RK replied tightly. "Right come on"

I tightened my arms around his neck trying to hide my face which had probably ballooned up by now and eyes have sunk in.

"Is mommy dying?" Ansh asked as he followed along.

"No. mommy was being stupid but she'll be fine" he responded.

I smacked his chest. "It's all your fault. Had you not been an ass I wouldn't have carried it with me"

"Had you trusted me enough I would've proved I'm not running away" he replied. I heard a door open and slowly he rested me inside the car.

"Take me to my car"

"And how will you drive? Unless you wanna prove you've gone mental" he countered.

I huffed crossing my arms around my chest and settled muttering curses inwardly whilst RK helped Ansh climb in and settled himself in the driver's seat and drew away.

"Feeling better?" RK asked.

I pushed down the cold wet towel and looked at him and nodded. He wasn't as bad I guessed. I turned my head to Ansh who settled on the single sofa and cuddled up watching cartoons.

"You need anything else?" he asked.

"Why are you being so nice?" I asked bluntly.

"I said I want to work this out and it won't be working well if we're at war" he replied.

I shrugged. "It might do. My parents were at war and I turned out just fine, I've got a relationship with both" I told him.

"Well if I want to live I better try to make this work, my grandma's going to kill me if Ansh doesn't have both his parents married"

I snickered bursting out laughing. "You're joking right?"

He shook his head seriously.

I straightened on the sofa narrowing my eyes. "I'm not marrying you" I stated.

"I'm not saying to. Just saying the truth" he shrugged.

"Well I don't want to know about your truth. Because I sure as well aren't getting married to anyone" I stated firmly. Despite believing fairy tales and wishing to get married to someone who'll love me and accept me I knew well not to dream. Life wasn't like that. Marriage is for people who can work for it, for those who can compromise and who can do things selflessly, I sure as hell wasn't like that.

"So you don't believe in marriage?"

"Marriage isn't for someone like me" I replied placing the cold towel against my eyes once again which meant discussion over, I didn't want to talk anymore.
