“Hunter, I missed you.”
In the room, their shadows gradually melded into one.
The snow was silent, and it weighed heavily on the tree leaves.
From time to time, the branches would bend and creak under the weight.
The next morning, sunlight shone warmly upon the yard.
Madison was extremely tired from the ordeal that lasted until midnight.
Before she knew it, chattering sounded in the room.
“I think I heard a cat meowing last night, and it came from Mommy’s room.Mommy must be keeping a kitten,” Alicia said sternly.
“It wasn’t a cat.I think it sounded like crying.Do you think Daddy hit Mommy?”
When Madison opened her eyes, she saw Zack’s interrogating expression.
“Mommy, did Daddy bully you again?”
Madison blushed.
The room was soundproofed very well, and the children had gone to sleep early on.
She hadn’t done it with Hunter for a long time, so she let loose a bit too much. She didn’t expect the children to be woken up by the noise.
She couldn’t bring herself to explain it to the kids.
“No.”
“But you sounded like you were crying, Mommy.”
“I told you that Mommy didn’t cry.It was the sound of a kitten.Mommy, are you hiding a kitten in your room?”
Right after that, a meow actually sounded from outside.
“Meow…”
Even Madison was stunned.
Where did the cat come from? Also, there was more than one cat.
A kitten sneaked in from under the door.
Madison felt that it looked quite familiar.
Then, a bigger cat appeared, and Madison recognized it right away.
Back then, after her chemo, Hunter took on someone else’s identity and stayed by her side.
To heal her grief over losing Snowball, Hunter looked for a cat that looked like Snowball and brought it to her.
When he left, he took the cat with him.
After so many years, the kitten had grown into an adult, and it had even given birth to its own kittens.
Madison wrapped herself in her loose robe as she got out of the bed.
The cat still recognized her, so it leaped into her arms.
“You remember me?”
A long time ago, she even suspected that it was Snowball who came back to life.
It resembled Snowball not just in terms of looks but even in the way it looked at her.
“Meow.”
It rubbed against Madison’s face intimately.
The children started to play with the kitten.
“I told you that a kitten was meowing last night, but you keep saying that Daddy was bullying
Mommy.Daddy loves Mommy so much.Why would he bully her?”
“That’s right.I love your mommy so much.I won’t bully her.”
Hunter stood at the entrance, looking slyly at Madison.
Holding the cat in her arms, Madison asked, “So you didn’t toss it away?”
“Why would I toss away things you like? It has been living here for the past few years.It was never sterilized, and this year, it somehow found another stray cat.It gave birth to a litter of kittens.”
Last night, Madison noticed that there was an extra plum tree in their yard.
Hunter said that he had moved it from the Evans residence.
Madison looked down from the second floor to see the plum blossoms blooming in the white snow.
The cat in her arms was taking a nap, and it looked just like Snowball.
Madison felt as if everything had returned to what it once was a decade ago.
Madison leaned in Hunter’s embrace, feeling as if everything was like a dream.
She had returned to this house which had brought her joy and endless pain.
Undoubtedly, she had shared sweet moments with Hunter when they were just married.
Back then, she would learn to cook various dishes at home while waiting for Hunter to come back.
She would take care of the flowers and plants in the yard over and over again.
She would also wash all the clothes Hunter took off, dry them, iron them, and then place them back in the wardrobe.
There would always be a bouquet of flowers on the table, which brought life to the house.
After she lost her child, she wept every day.
At that time, the house was like a cage that trapped her.
She could no longer feel joy.
It was especially so for the baby room she had decorated herself.
After her incident of falling into the ocean, she would curl up on the small crib as she constantly thought about her premature son.
Now, Madison heard movements coming from that room.
It sounded like music played by a toy.
The children were all playing with the kittens in the master bedroom, so who could be in the baby room? Madison opened the door to the room.
When she left back then, she had destroyed all the decorations in this room.
Unexpectedly, Hunter had restored the room to its original state.
A tall child was standing beside the crib.
It felt weird to call him a child, for he was very tall.
But in reality, he was only nine years old this year.
He was holding a small rattle in his hands, and the bells on the bed behind him swayed, making gentle sounds.
When Connor heard the door being opened, he turned around.
Madison couldn’t hold back the tears anymore as she dashed up to him.
“Connor.”
“Mommy.”
They hugged each other tightly.
They had been waiting for this day for nine years, and they could finally reunite as mother and son.
“Mommy, I missed you so much.”
In the past few years, Connor had many moments of sorrow.
His greatest worry was that Madison didn’t like him, and that was why she abandoned him.
He was just a child.
He missed his parents too.
But then his father brought him to this room and told him that before he was even born, Madison had personally decorated and furnished this room for him.
There were lots of baby clothes and toys.
She had very much looked forward to the birth of this child.
His mother loved him more than anything else, so she couldn’t possibly have abandoned him.
Connor held Madison tightly, feeling Madison’s tears dripping onto his neck.
Those tears were burning.
“I’m so sorry, Connor.”
Madison loved him a lot, but she didn’t know what to say.
She could only repeat the same words.
“It’s my fault for not protecting you well enough.”
“Mommy, I never blamed you.”
It wasn’t until he arrived at this room that Connor realized how much his mother loved him.
She had poured all her love into this room.
The sound of bells grew closer.
The clear ringing of the bells sounded in Connor’s ears.
Hunter had told him about his siblings before.
When he heard that sound, he subconsciously thought of Willow.
Connor’s first reaction was to turn around to dry his tears.
Hunter had told him that men didn’t cry easily.
He was also the eldest child, so he had to take care of his younger siblings in the future.
He absolutely mustn’t reveal his weak side to them.
The sound of bells grew even closer, and a child’s voice reached his ears.
“Um…Were you crying?”
