❤LIAM’S P.O.V❤
“Are you okay?” I asked the nervous Ariel sitting beside me in the car.
“I don’t know?…I’m just kinda nervous I’m meeting my mother after seventeen years..I don’t know how to feel. I’m happy but also nervous…what if she doesn’t like me?…what if she doesn’t even think of me? What if I’m just_”
“Alright stop with your ‘what if’ thinking…of course she’ll surely like you? See has been waiting for you all these years and believed you’re not dead. I’m sure she’ll be ten times happier than I am” I held her hand and she smiled.
“Alright we’re here?” I said as the electronic gate opened.
“Oh! I know this house?!…I know the woman living here…I’ve met her once” she rushed her words whilst I just stared at her.
❤ANNA’S \ ARIEL’S P.O.V❤
We waited patiently for the door to open and it did revealing the woman I helped the other day.
She looked pale and gloomy her face puffed like she’s been crying.
I didn’t know when tears stro-ked down my face.
So she was my mother? No wonder I felt a thing when I helped her the other day.
“Oh Liam…I wasn’t expecting you…is this your wife? She’s pretty..?” She smiled.
“But young lady why are you crying? A pretty lady like you shouldn’t cry…it’s bad for your health.”
“And you…why did you cry?…don’t you know it’s bad for your health?” I said and I can see surprise clearly written on her face.
“Mom…?” I whispered crying and she looked at me flabbergasted.
“Mom?” I called again not able to control my tears.
“I missed you mom…I missed you…?” I hug-ged her ti-ghtly.
“Don’t tell me you don’t recognize me mom?…it’s me your daughter …it’s me Ariel?!”
She pulled away from the hug and cu-pped my face.
“Ariel?…Ariel my daughter…?” She said and I nodded.
“Yes…it’s me…your princess mom…the best daughter in the world…Ariel?” I replied and she hug-ged me weeping bitterly.
“My daughter…my princess…you were alive?…you didn’t die…you we’re alive…my lovely princess…?”
We both cried on each other’s shoulder.

“Who knew my savior was actually my daughter…I knew there was something special about you that day” she smiles holding my hand.
“Me too…I really felt something different that day…?”
“Have some water mother?” Liam said and gave her the gla-ss of water which she reluctantly took from him.
“Come on drink it…I’m not disappearing…?” 8 said and she chuckled.
She drank the water without taking off her eyes off me.
“It’s a pity Dad isn’t here?” I said and she signed.
The door bell rang and I went to get it.
Mom requested to see Aunt to thank her for taking care of me.
I also explained everything to her and she seems shocked and happy as well.
I invited her in and mom hug-ged her as she came in.
❤MRS DAVIS’ P.O.V❤
“Thank you so much…thanks to you I’ve one more reason to live” I said holding her hand.
“You don’t need to thank me…someone else would have done it even if I wasn’t there”
“I’m really glad to meet her again after so many years…I’ve thought and imagined this day for so many times…thank you so much
“To God be the glory…I’m happy you finally found her…it’s must have been so painful all these years…um sorry for keeping her away?” She said and I nodded in disagreement.
“How did you find her by the way?”
“Ohhh that…I was going fishing when I saw a lifeless body near the sea. Initially the sight was horrifying but when I realized it was a little girl I felt pity and moved closer that was when I realized she was still breathing. I carried her home and treated her a week later she woke up and as soon as she woke up ‘mom?’ Was the first word she said. She asked if I was her mom and I wanted to say say yes but it was are too late as my day already said no so I just lied was her Aunt. She was wearing an expense ne-cklace and I realized she must be from a wealthy home. Her parents must be looking for her. I want to every station but no report of missing child was filed. I wanted to go to the city cause we were living at the country sure then but I couldn’t as my husband suddenly felt sick. I guess fate doesn’t want me to go then. When everyone was stable we moved to the city and i tried my best looking for her parents but it was fruitless. So since she was used to me I decided not to break the bad news to her and raise her. I’m really sorry I should have looked har-der …her mother was waiting but I selfishly kept her by my side.”she said with teary eyes.
“It’s okay…I’m really happy you took her in and and take care of her like she’s yours”
“Alright ladies..dinner is ready let’s eat” Ariel said clapping her hands and I smiled.
I can’t believe my daughter is alive and here in my house.
Words can’t describe my happiness.
❤ANNA’S \ ARIEL’S P.O.V❤
I decided to spend some days with mom. It’s been long and Liam promised to pick me up after a week.
Mom and I laid on the bed and she just couldn’t take her eyes off me.
“If I had gone to the wedding, would I have recognized you?” She said stro-king my hair.
“I doubt that…?” I replied and she smiles.
“My daughter…I’m really happy to be with you right now…you’ve grown up to be such a lovely lady…I really missed you”
“I missed you more mom” I said and she kis-sed my forehead.
“Mom what about Dad? Why aren’t you saying anything about him…did he perhaps di_”
“Shhh…let’s sleep…it’s already late” she cuts me off and I smiled.
“Sweet dreams princess” she muttered.
* * * *
“Mom why are we here?” I asked the forth time.
“You asked about your Dad, didn’t you?”
“Dad…?” I asked shocked.
“Let’s go in”
She led me in to a room and I saw a man with oxygen mask on drip.
His pulse moving slowly in the pulse detecting machine and wire strings running throu-ghhis nose.
“He has been in coma ever since the accident. The doctor said he’s in a vegetative state. People thought he was dead because I lied he was. He was badly injured that there was no hope for him. But luckily he lived. And he has been in a coma since then. He’s the reason I’m still breathing…if not for him…I would have given up on life a long time ago. Nobody knows about him being alive except you…Liam even doesn’t know and his family ” she said and I broke down in tears.
“Dad…?” I called as I cried holding his hand in mine.
“I’m here…your princess is here…stand up Dad…you can’t be like this…open your eyes and take a look at your beautiful daughter…I miss you…Dad?” I cried whilst mom hug-ged me.
Ariel’s Dad is still alive…?
The family is getting completed once again.
