Chapter 91: Her name?

Chapter 91: Chapter 91: Her name?

[FLASHBACK: 14 Years Ago]

"Huh? Hahaha...Where did you learn that term from?" Zorina let out a soft embarrassed chuckle while wrapping her arms around Zenith to embrace him in her arms.

"Umm, my playschool teacher said...if we like someone, we would be worried for them." Zenith tried to explain in his limited knowledge while scratching the back of his small head. "You were also worried for her, right, Mom?"

"Yes, I was." When Zorina finally stopped laughing, she exhaled a heavy sigh while explaining to him calmly, "But I didn’t like that girl romantically, unfortunately, she fell for me. Its true that I was very worried for her after she suddenly disappeared and I used to adore her innocent, kind-hearted nature very much.

"But, to be honest, I had already met your dad when I was in the last year of my high school, and had fallen for him too. Your dad was my first love and the only one I have ever loved, Zen. Our marriages were finalized by our families, but I was very happy to be with him. And because of him, I was blessed to have you too, so what else can make me happy?"

"But..." Suddenly Zenith’s small face turned a bit glum when he leaned his eyes down from her face and muttered in a low voice, "Dad has never called you beautiful, Mom. He never even looks at you...nor does he ever play with me. Shouldn’t you have been happier with someone who used to love you, Mom?"

Zenith’s blunt question suddenly tainted Zorina’s smile a little, as her pitch-black eyes were tainted with sadness. She paused for a small moment realizing the depth of his question that came out of the blue.

But shortly after that, she forged another chuckle to lighten up the mood, "Of course, Dad loves both of us very much, Zen. He just does not express it very much, and you know how busy he’s always with work. But he’s actually very devoted to his family, so never think ill of your Dad, okay?"

Even though Zenith was little, he could vividly see Zorina’s attempt to forge lies under the mask of her fake smile as she tried to console his heart. Zenith didn’t argue and only nodded to him since his heart knew even though Zorina was sick, Dolemort didn’t even bother to check up on her once, instead, he was the one who asked Dr. Albert to forbid Zenith from going near Zorina.

Watching Zenith’s small radiant face turn a little grim from her response, Zorina quickly started braiding the branches of those peonies which Zenith had picked for her and tried to lighten up his mood with her soft chit-chat, "Zen, do you want to hear how I met your dad?"

"Hmm?"

"Well, I went to an art exhibition which was held in my grandfather’s art museum, and there at the corner of a giant art gallery, I saw your dad who was also a high school boy at that moment staring still at the portrait of a pink peonies. His facial expression looked a bit baffled when he was staring at that painting, and it amused me.

"Those kind of exhibitions were rarely visited by high school boys, as they found it boring, but your dad seemed to be very curious about those arts showcased in that art gallery. I slowly reached close to him and then I could sense his pheromone scent felt similar to the fragnance of a bunch of fresh peonies plucked from a garden. That’s the moment, I think I fell in love with him."

Zorina’s porcelain cheeks turned a little red when she was sharing her nostalgic memories with her beloved son. Zenith whose mood was a bit glum until a moment ago quickly turned curious from her answer when he eagerly asked, "Did you tell him about that, Mom?"

"No...Sadly, I never got the chance to tell him." By then Zorina had finished braiding the branches of those peonies and turned into a beautiful floral tiara before she gently placed it on top of Zenith’s head. He was already a pretty child, and being graced with the floral tiara, his beauty was uplifted several folds high which became a very pleasant sight to her eyes when Zorina continued to narrate him.

"Even though I couldn’t tell him that, but your dad gave me the opportunity to bless with you, Zen. You look alike with your Dad and that’s one of the reasons that makes me always happy.

"I know, in this life, I would never stop loving your dad but...the reason why I told you that...is because just like me, one day when you will fall for someone, you will also be able to sense the smell of peonies from their fragrance. And I believe that person would be able to give you all the fair share of love you deserve in this world, my little joy."

"Peonies?" Confusedly grazing his little fingertips on the peony tiara, Zenith asked her, "What if I never find someone like that, Mom?"

"Destiny will always guide you to your destined partner, Zenith. Just like I was guided to your Dad. So, have faith on your Mom’s words, okay?" Zorina placed a soft kiss on his forehead while admiring her beloved son sitting on her lap, wearing the tiara she had made for him.

"But Mom...I am curious...what was that omega girl’s name who used to like you?" Zenith mumbled in a soft voice while cuddling close in her arms.

"Her name...Ummm...I think her name was—"

...

"RING RING RING RING!"

The loud sound of alarm jolted Zenith to wake up from the bittersweet dream of his past he was immersed until now. Beneath his dark eyes, puffy eyebags had formed depicting he didn’t have a night of proper sleep, just like other nights where he was always bothered with nightmares or bittersweet lost memories with his mother from his dark twisted past.

Waking up tired, he slowly dragged his body to sit up on the bed and lit a cigarette again, while mumbling to himself, "After all these years...why wouldn’t these dreams just stop showing up? Now that I recalled that memory again...I never got to hear that omega girl’s name who used to like Mom after all...

"Maybe...if she had ended up with her...she would’ve lived a happy life instead. Maybe...she would have been still alive... Why the heck that fuckin’ destiny had to drag her to Doelmort Agastya on that day?"
