Mercy is given
Haru Ato was so stunned that he couldn't even breath properly. Truly, he couldn't believe that he was a father, much less a great grandfather. For some reason, it brought happiness inside his heart, but also a feeling of trouble, because he was never told about it. He knew for a fact, that there was a great chance that his son wouldn't recognize him, or even accept him. After all, who knows what the mother of his child had told about him. Perhaps, his child might have hated him, however, Haru Ato had this fluttering feeling that told him that his child had taken the decision to follow in his footsteps. He knew after all, that his past lover was someone that was as sweet as a honey dew flower. Even if she might be saddened of his departure, she would never do something as hateful as spiting on his name.
"She must have understood my ambition. That's why, she decided to take care of our child alone…" *Sigh*
