Mommy...Can you Win Daddy's Love again?

Adrian came out of the bathroom and found Katherine waiting for him and also holding a towel in her hand.

She extended her arm and gave him the towel which was holding in her hand. " I will bring coffee for you. I think it's better for the hangover. Meanwhile, take your bath, " she said in a calm tone.

" Are you ordering me? " he said in a serious tone, looking at her. She looked at him and replied, " According to me, I told you to take a bath so that you will feel fresh. I care about your health. If you think I am ordering you then I don't mind. I hope as your wife, I have every right on you. " 

She moved closer to him and cupped his face with one hand, " Ad...I know you are upset. If you have a problem with me then show it to me but not to Aunt Maria."

" Do you know how disappointed she was as you were drunk last night? And also she had imprints of your fingers on her wrist, " she added.

Adrian remained calm and stared at her. There was silence for a few seconds between them. " Be a good boy and take your bath. Meanwhile, I will be back with coffee " she was the first to break the silence. 

When she turned to leave, all of sudden he held her wrist and twirled her towards him. " So...you are ready to tolerate my anger? " he asked, looking into her eyes. She smiled at him and nodded her head.

" I love you, Ad. I can tolerate anything for you, " she said, leaning her head on his chest.

" Really!! Can I believe your words? " he questioned her. She raised her head and looked at him with hurtful eyes. " Now...you doubt my love for you! Don't you know! " she said with wet eyes.

" Okay...Tell me...whom do you love more? Me or Sam? " he asked, which made her startled.

" Ad…" 

" What kind of question is this? I think the effect of alcohol didn't leave your mind" she said angrily. He tightened his grip around her waist and said, " I need an answer… " in a stern voice.

" I love you both more than my life. You are like my two eyes. I can't choose one," she replied.

" What if I ask you the same question? " she questioned him back. He looked at her with amusement. " Don't use your smart brain. It was my question. You need to give me the answer" he said.

" Okay. Tell me what should I do to prove my love? " she said as she doesn't want him to doubt her love.

" Are you sure that you will do anything to prove your love for me? " he asked her again.

" Yes. I will do anything for you. Even I can give my life, " she said sincerely, looking at him.

" I am not Psycho….darling.." He replied. Then he continued, " Just swear on Sam that you love me and do anything to prove your love for me," he said.

" Don't you trust me now? " she asked. 

" I am not in a state to give you an explanation.…" he answered and took her to Sam who was lying on the bed. He took her hand and placed her palm on Sam's forehead. " Swear on him and promise me that you are going to prove your love for me…" he said.

She was so hurt when he was forced to swear on their son who was sick. All these years, she adored him in her heart even though fate separated from the love of her life. She never thought he would doubt her love for him after knowing the truth.

As she was silent, he asked, " Don't you swear on Sam? Does it mean you don't love me? " 

" Ad...Why are you talking weirdly? Don't you know how much I love you? " She asked while tears were running out of her eyes. 

" So the message that I got on my mobile is right? " He asked sarcastically. Katherine looked skeptically and asked in a higher voice, " What message? " 

" That … You loved me at your college time just for the time being. After going away from me, you wanted to marry your best friend, Martin. But your plan failed with GRAYSON's entry into your life. So you eloped with Martin along with Ruby. But after many years, you married me for my wealth…" he informed, looking at her.

She fisted his T-shirt and glared at him. " So... you trust that message over our relationship? Huh? " She shouted.

" Calm down...it's not good for your health," he said.

" I received more than that...but I am just asking you to swear on Sam. Can't you make a small promise for your husband? What is a big deal in it? " He asked. 

" I believe no mother lies swearing in their child…" he added.

" Okay then, if my promise makes your heart content, I swear on our son Sam." She said and placed her palm on Sam's top of his head. While looking at him, she swore, " My love for you is true and pure. I will do anything to prove it…" 

Then she started crying with Adrian doubting. Not in her dreams, she thought Adrian would come into other words about their relationship. It was so hard to accept hearing his accusations. 

" That's like a perfect wife, Mrs. Wilson. Now stop crying. Go and get me a hot coffee as I am having a severe headache …" he said, taking a towel from the chair.

She nodded her head while sniffing her nose due to crying. 

" Love...go and prepare coffee with your own hands. This is the first test to prove your love for me. I don't care even if your shoulder is bandaged, " he said and went to the bathroom.

She looked at the leaving figure of Adrian with shock. She wondered why Adrian changed suddenly and started doubting her love. When she heard a water dripping sound from the bathroom, she decided to prepare coffee for him.. She went to the kitchen taking slow steps.
