Aiden nodded, but things were confusing. Just a couple of weeks ago he'd been with Nana and then she'd died and he'd throught he'd live with mum but she'd left him with Cass, who was married to a man.
He looked from one to the other, trying to think of what to ask next, but there were so many things he wanted to know. 'Do all parents love their children?' he finally asked, a bit surprised at the question himself. He thought of it some more, then was more and more sure that he wanted to know. 'Nana loved me lots, she said so all the time.' he smiled. 'But if mum loves me...' he paused. '...Why doesn't she want me?'
He hoped he'd see Nana again, he really wanted to. He missed her a lot.
