Louis Tomlinson's mothers dying wish was to reunite her son and his former One Direction bandmate Zayn Malik just before she lost her battle to Leukemia.
In an emotional interview with The Sun, Tomlinson recalled his mother saying, “'You've got to get back in contact with Zayn. Life's too f-king short.'”

“I can't stand to hold a grudge with anyone. It doesn't sit with me right,” Tomlinson said. “If there is any animosity, just clear the air. I met up with him and it was nice.”
Although Malik has been distant from the band, only mentioning negative comments about his experience and their music when it comes up in interviews, Tomlinson still views him in a positive light.
“I would always see the good in Zayn and also watch him shoot himself in the foot with some of his decisions, but he's just a little misunderstood," Tomlinson said.
