Amelia's POV

Everyone stood frozen in their spot. Anyone in the room could feel the tension. I looked at Xavier to see that his posture was rigid and tensed.

There was anticipating to see what was going to happen. His mum slowly turned towards him. She was on the verge of crying.

"Xavier." she said as her lips trembled. The moment she said that, Xavier's posture become soft immediately. His eyes became wide.

"It can't be." he said disbelievingly. "Mum?" he asked questioningly. She nodded her head as she walked towards him. She stood right in front of him.

"I am so sorry for abandoning you son. For abandoning all of you." she said looking at everyone. There was a smile on everyone face. I couldn't contain my own smile.

"But hereafter, I am going to be here for all of you. I promise." she said looking at Xavier. To everyone surprise, Xavier hugged his mum, pulling her close to him.

He looked like a child, who just found his mum after being lost for so long. Everyone started leaving, wanting to give the mother and son, their moment.

I watched them as I left. I have never seen him show this much emotion from my time here. It warmed my heart and made me so happy.

I gave them one last glance and left. I went to the backyard to be with the kids. The kids were waiting for me, and the moment they saw me they started squealing asking me to play with them.

I spent the afternoon with the kids, playing and helping them plant. Soon kids became tired and we went back inside.

Their mothers thanked me for keeping the children entertained. I went back to my room to clean myself. As I was walking in the hallways, I saw Xavier's mum. She came towards me smiling.

"How are you dear?" she asked me sweetly. " I am good." I said back. "Thank you so much dear." she said honestly. "For what?"

"For making me understand what I had missed." I just smiled at her to that. "Can I ask you something dear?" I nodded my head.

We were walking towards my room, when she asked me the question. "Why are you and Xavier, distant?" I froze when she asked me that.
