Chapter 6

...Keith...

I woke up from the sound Max crying on the bed next to me, l immediately woke up and carried him in my arms

"What is it honey?" I asked softly trying to calm him down

"Mummy, l want a glass of milk" he cried, that's when the realization hit me, some men had come to pick me up last night saying they where ordered by MR MADISON

We were immediately taken to a private jet and l didn't have time to get Max's milk, l had totally forgotten about it.

Ever since l was pregnant with him, l would wake up in the middle of the time for a glass of milk, l couldn't even understand why cause before that, l hated milk.

After Max was born, it was the same with him, he would cry every night until l gave him a glass of milk.

I carried max out of the room we where in, it was honestly my first time being in a plane that had a bedroom in it, you would certainly mistaken it for a hotel,

"Ma'am do you need anything?" One of the two men that had picked me up asked

"Yes, my son needs a cup of milk, he won't sleep or stop crying until he gets it" l said trying to calm the sobbing max down

The two men looked at each other

"But we still have 8 hours before we reach Sidney" the other man answered,

I was suddenly worried, eight hours was a long time, Max was going to go insane by then

"Please isn't there anything you can do, perhaps make a stop at any possible airport?" I asked awakardly hoping we werent causing much trouble,

The two men again exchanged looks, l could tell one was feeling sorry for me while the other one didn't look pleased, not that l cared anywhere, I just wanted to stop my son from crying

"We will talk to our Boss and see if we can land when we arrive in Australia" the nicer one among the two said, i said a 'thank you' with a smile

"In the meantime please go back to the room, someone will bring food that will distract the little boy" the other one said, l only nodded and headed back to the room,

I hoped their boss whether it was Saul or his father MR Madison would allow us to land otherwise max was going to go crazy on all of us.

"Max, stop crying baby, l will give you your milk in a few minutes okay" l said with a sweet voice smiling at him

"No, l want it now mommy" he murmered stubbornly

"Look honey we are in a plane which unfortunately doesn't have any milk " I explained though l knew he wouldn't even understand anything

"But l just want my milk" he said, by now he had started to sob again

"Oh baby, don't do this to mommy" l begged feeling bad he was crying like this

"But l just want my milk" he said between sobs, before l could respond to him, l heard a knock on the door and responded

"Come in" A young woman walked in with a tray in her hands

"Am sorry to have kept you waiting" she said with a bright smile which I returned

"Its no big deal, we wouldn't have bothered you if it wasn't because of the milk" l answered

"I don't know if this is okay but i prepared him this" she said handing me a cup of cream milk, l had never tried this with him but i poured hot water in the cup to make the milk soluation and gave max who drank the whole thing at once to our own amusement

"Are you good now honey?" I asked

"Yes mommy, l wanna sleep now" he said and l nodded putting him to bed

"He looks exactly like Mr Madison, he even has his habits" l heard the lady say from behind

"Excuse me?" I said turning around so i could look at the woman

"Oh am talking about the little boy, he does look exactly like his father, Mr Madison" she said, l could feel my face hit up with anger

"He is not Saul's son" l said my voice sounding more angry than l intended

"You don't have to worry Mis, l'll

pretend l didn't see or know anything, l understand that due to some personal reasons you don't want the world to know Mr Madison has a son, but I think its cute he sent his private jet just to pick you up, you are lucky to have been able to give a man like that a child" She said with a big smile and dreamy face

"He is not saul's son" l almost yelled again, why did this woman think max was Saul's son?,

"Well, l will leave you to rest now, such a pity he is getting married don't you think?" This woman was really unbelievable

"No, Its Not" i replied stressing every word which didn't seem to affect her at all

"Well, l guess you two made a cute baby" she said looking at Max again

"Well thank you, now please may we have some rest?" I said,

l was honestly tired, it was in the middle of the night and l needed enough rest to look presentable at the wedding l didn't have time to convince a Air hostess that Max wasn't saul's son though l  still wondered why she thought that way since l know they didn't look alike in anyway

"See, you just admitted he is Mr Madison's son, oh my Gosh!" She beamed excitedly

"I told you, he is not, but if you believe he is for some reasons, then suite yourself, l just want to sleep" l said and laid on the bed, this woman was really something else.

"Okay, l will wake you up when the plane lands" she said with a smile and left, if it wasn't  for her attitude to poke her nose in other people's business, l would have perhaps thought she was nice.

I kissed Max's forehead and drifted off to sleep.

I was woken up by a knock on the door

"Come in" l said with a yawn without fully opening my eyes

"Mis, the plane will be landing in five minutes" I opened my eyes and discovered it was the two men that had picked me up earlier

"Where is my phone?" I asked

"Here" one of them said handing me the phone, l immediately checked the time and panicked when i saw what time it was

"I will miss the wedding, its already 8" l exclaimed

"We have been told to take you to the Madison hotel immediately we land where you won't take more than twenty minutes to prepare for the wedding" the man said, I could only nod

I woke max up and waited for the plane to land and when it did, two cars where already waiting for us, Max and I got in one while the two men got in to the other car,

We where taken to a five star hotel where l was told l needed to get ready in ten minutes, A young woman had also taken Max and said she was ordered to prepare him while i also prepared myself.

Though l hated the idea of someone else taking care of my son, l had to agree as l didn't have enough time, the wedding had probably already began.

In twenty minutes, we had arrived at the church, l held max tightly as I entered the main door, l could see the bride and groom at the alter with everyone's attention on them, l only hoped l would reach the only reserved sit which was in the second roll from the front like Sophia had told me without anyone noticing

Just then as l walked to the front, l felt Max's grip on me tighten, l lowerd my head to hear what he wanted

"What is it sweetie" l whispered sweetly

"Mom, am hungry" He whispered back

"I wanna eat" he said, that's when l realised Max didn't have his breakfast, knowing how he was, l knew he was about to get everyone's attention and said a silent prayer

"If any of you is against this wedding, this is the only time you can speak up or forever hold your peace" l heard the priest say, the whole church was filled with silence, l thanked the heavens for not wearing heels today,

Just then something unexpected and embarrassing happened, Max started crying loudly

"Am soo hungry mummy, l want food" he yelled, everyone's attention was now on us and by everyone, l mean, the priest, the bride and groom and even the whole clowd in the church was looking at Max and l, l was glad to see sophie in front and continued walking while trying to make Max keep quite,

I was hoping the priest would continue with everything but to my surprise, people started whispering to each other while looking at me,

I felt nervous and awarkard as l stared straight ahead, that's when l noticed the most handsome man l have ever seen and he was looking at me, no let me rephrase that, he was looking from me to max and back to me,

I felt my grip on Max tighten as l noticed the way he was looking at him..
