Rihanna takes Brown back

RIHANNA has reunited with Chris Brown, less than three weeks after an alleged assault by Brown left the singer injured, news reports say.

 ``They are together again. They care for each other,'' People.com quoted an unidentified source as saying.

``While Chris is reflective and saddened about what happened, he is really happy to be with the woman he loves,'' the report said.

Brown re-initiated contact with Barbados-born Rihanna last week at the singer's 21st birthday, less than three weeks after the couple made headlines with their violent falling-out on the eve of the Grammy awards.

He earlier made a public apology and vowed to become a ``better person,'' seeking counselling and the help of his family.
