Sara turned around, gently pushing him away as she saw his struggle to control himself. "Have you finished your work?" she asked.

"No," he admitted, "I'm just craving you."

Sara hesitated, her gaze worried. "Yohan, Jimmy will be done with his classes. I need to go pick him up."

Yohan sighed, "You don't have to. Just get ready for dinner. He'll be here soon."

"Did you send Jack to pick him up?" Sara asked.

Yohan moved a strand of her hair from her shoulder and tried to bury his face in her neck. Sara pushed him away gently. "Yohan, don’t start."

He held her in his arms and looked deeply into her eyes. "You're beautiful."

Sara blushed and lowered her head, placing her palms on his chest. "Why don't you wear one of the dresses from the collection I bought for you? Many of them are still untouched."

Despite all the hardships they had faced, Yohan had never thrown away her things.

Sara hesitated, "It's been a long time

    Yohan was sitting in the cold water-filled bathtub, his knees pulled up to his stomach, and his hands covering his ears. He appeared to be in a state of immense agony, and the sight of him in such distress filled Sara with fear and sorrow. She knew something was terribly wrong. Her voice quivered as she called out to him in panic, "Yohan... Yohan..." Yohan remained unresponsive, his body trembling, and his ears covered with his hands as he curled into a ball.

Noah entered the room, seeing Yohan seated behind his desk."Mom said you wanted to talk to me," Noah said, taking a seat in front of Yohan.Yohan, in a caring tone, began the conversation, "I heard you don't have any friends in your school.

He hesitated, avoiding her gaze, and gently urged, "Jemma, just take it easy. You need to rest."But Jemma, fueled by a mother's instinct and the gnawing fear that something was amiss, persisted, "Jimmy, please, where's our baby?
