Five years had passed since you last saw Joseph. Your painful separation left secrets unspoken—especially about your child.

Now, fate reunited you at a business event. You never expected to see Joseph again, his intense gaze locking onto yours. But before he could speak, a small voice broke the silence.

"Mama, I'm thirsty."

A little boy ran to you, gripping your hand. Joseph froze—those eyes, just like his.

Panic gripped you as Joseph stepped closer. "Who is he?" His voice trembled.

You hesitated before whispering, "His name is Rai."

Joseph's gaze darkened with shock and hurt. "Why didn’t you tell me?"

Tears welled in your eyes. "You were sick… I didn’t want to burden you. I was afraid."

Joseph was silent, emotions swirling. Then, looking at Rai, he spoke softly, "I need time to process this. But one thing is clear—I want to be his father."

You stared at him, stunned.
