3 years later.

Louis's graduation will be held in the campus auditorium, and the invitations had been sent a long time ago, one for me, one for Damian, even though Louis never directly gave his to Damian.

I found the invitation on the living room table one morning, already opened, with Louis's handwriting in the corner:

"If you want to come, just come."

Damian didn't comment when I looked at him with questioning eyes. He just folded the invitation back and placed it on the bookshelf, between bu

    I was tidying the small table beside Louis's bed when someone knocked on the room door."Excuse me."I turned and saw a young girl standing in the doorway. She was probably around Louis's age. Her long brown hair cascaded past her shoulders, while both hands held a small bouquet of flowers."Is this Louis Kingsley's room?" she asked politely."Yes. Who are you?"The girl smiled faintly. "My name is Selena. I'm Louis's close friend."I nodded and invited her in."Oh, please. Louis is resting."Selena walked toward the bed. I watched her with a bit of curiosity. There was something about the way the girl looked at Louis that made me wonder."Louis," she called softly.My son, who was lying down, immediately turned toward the voice."Who?""It's me, Selena."Louis seemed surprised."Selena?""Yes. I came to visit you."I frowned.So this girl was Selena, Louis's close friend?How strange. All this time Louis had never told me about her. I didn't even know that my son had a special girl i

    I stood beside Louis's bed, watching how my son held Damian's hand. The sight made my chest feel tight. For years, Louis had always rejected the presence of his biological father. But now, in his most fragile state, he was actually asking Damian not to leave him.I didn't know if this was the beginning of their new relationship or just the fear of a child who was losing his direction.What was clear was that I didn't want Louis to feel alone."Sweetheart, rest now. You need energy for recovery," I said while stroking his hair."I can't sleep, Mom.""Why?"Louis swallowed before answering, "Because every time I close my eyes, everything stays dark. I don't even know if my eyes are open or closed."I bit my lip."You're undergoing treatment. Don't think about it too much right now.""How can I not think about it? I can't even see your faces."Damian stroked his son's hand."You'll recognize us by our voices. I'll talk to you every day until you get tired of hearing it."Louis laughed so

    I followed Louis's bed toward the examination room, my heart pounding violently. Damian walked on the other side, holding our son's hand as if he were afraid Louis would disappear if he let go.“Mom, are you still here?” Louis asked in a trembling voice.“Yes, sweetheart. I'm here,” I replied, gently stroking his hair.“I can't see anything. Everything is dark.”My tears began to fall again. “Please calm down, Louis. The doctors are examining you. We'll find a way to deal with this.”“What if I can never see again?”I fell silent.Louis struggled to catch his breath. “I want to become a doctor, Mom. I've worked so hard for years. I don't want to lose my dream.”Damian gently squeezed his hand.“You won't lose us. Whatever happens, I'll always be by your side,” Damian said.Louis didn't answer. He simply cried in silence while I walked beside him with a broken heart.Several hours later, the examinations were completed. Louis was taken back to his hospital room, while Damian and I were

    “Louis, Mom is here.”I stroked his pale cheek, trying to hold back my tears. The monitors beside his bed continued to beep steadily, but my son remained motionless.“Please wake up. You can be angry with me, you can scold me for worrying too much, but please don't leave me.”I kissed his forehead and held his hand against my cheek.“I still want to see you become a doctor. You promised me you would graduate, remember? You haven't fulfilled that promise yet.”My tears fell onto the blanket.After a while, the nurse gently reminded me that I needed to rest. Reluctantly, I left the ICU and returned to Damian, who was waiting outside with a cup of coffee he hadn't touched.“How is he?” Damian asked immediately.“He hasn't woken up.”Damian lowered his head. “Can I see him?”I nodded.“Of course. He's your son too.”He stared at me for a moment, his eyes reddening before he turned toward the ICU.I watched him disappear behind the doors, feeling an unfamiliar ache in my chest. For years,

    The rain didn't stop all night. Lightning flashed at increasingly shorter intervals, as if the sky were angry at something we didn't know about.I lay beside Damian, my eyes wide open staring at the ceiling that occasionally lit up white.But I couldn't sleep. There was something uneasy in my chest, a kind of premonition I couldn't explain. I had tried to ignore it—regulating my breathing, turning over, counting down from a hundred.It didn't work. Damian beside me wasn't asleep either; I could feel his body tense even though his eyes were closed."You can't sleep either?" I asked.He opened his eyes. "The rain is too loud.""You're lying."He smiled faintly in the darkness. "I just feel strange. Maybe because of the storm. Try to sleep. Daniel will definitely wake up early tomorrow and ask for pancakes."I nodded, closed my eyes, and somehow eventually drifted off too—a restless sleep, full of strange dreams I couldn't remember when I woke.The phone rang at eleven past two. I woke w

    Daniel is three years old, and our house has never really been quiet again. He's talkative in the most exhausting yet most entertaining way, asking about everything, from why cats can't talk to why the sky is blue, and he's never satisfied with short answers.Damian, who used to be known as quiet and cold in the business world, can now spend half an hour explaining how a washing machine works to a child who can't even tie his own shoelaces yet.I often find the two of them sitting on the kitchen floor, surrounded by disassembled toy parts, while Damian patiently shows which ones are batteries and which aren't."Are you an engineer or a father?" I asked one afternoon, standing in the doorway with a cup of tea.Damian looked up, his face covered in sweat. "A father who happens to know a lot of useless things." Then he looked down again. "Now, Daniel, if you connect this wire here, the light will turn on. Try it."Daniel took the wire with his tiny, still clumsy hands, and when the littl
