In that moment, it felt as though we had been transported back to a time when our family was filled with happiness and unity. It evoked a sense of nostalgia for the cherished memories we had before our marriage took a tumultuous turn."Mommy, that was absolutely amazing!" Marco exclaimed, his face beaming with delight."Yes, my dear," I replied, a genuine smile gracing my lips."Perhaps, after this, we can head to the lion king," Marcus suggested, his voice filled with anticipation.As we arrived at the lion enclosure, I couldn't believe how much fun I was having with Marcus.

Hello,Husband,Goodbye Hannah
As I read the message, my jaw dropped in shock. How could my fiancé ask another woman out to dinner when I clearly mentioned I needed some rest? And why Hannah of all people?I swiftly typed a response, my hands trembling with frustration. "Why are you planning to dine with Hannah? I thought we agreed on a peaceful evening at home." I pressed send and eagerly awaited Elijah's reply.My phone buzzed once more after a few seconds."I understand you're exhausted, but Hannah is a valued client. Strengthening our professional relationship with her is important. I assure you, it's purely business."I didn't want to come off as a possessive and insecure partner. I truly wanted to believe in Elijah and his loyalty.With a forced smile, I assured him, "Alright, I trust you. Enjoy your meal."Setting my phone aside, I couldn't help but dwell on the situation. Why did Elijah have to invite Hannah? Couldn't he have picked a male friend instead? Despite my uneasiness, I tried to push those thought
Hello,Husband,Goodbye Uncomfortable
My jaw dropped in disbelief as Elijah let out a hearty chuckle. He leaned in closer and began to unravel the mystery behind his connection with Hannah's father."You see," he began, "Hannah's father and I go way back. He's been a close friend of mine for years, and he genuinely believes in our company."Though his explanation eased some of my suspicions, I couldn't help but feel a twinge of doubt lingering in the depths of my mind. Elijah sensed my unease and gently grasped my hand, his eyes filled with sincerity.Are you absolutely certain that your relationship with Hannah is purely business?" I inquired, casting doubt on him."What are you implying? Do you doubt me?" he questioned."I'm not sure what to believe anymore. I can't help but wonder why she decided to invest millions in the company again. Are you really that persuasive to her?" I probed."No, it's simply a wise investment in our company and she reaps the benefits," Elijah explained."Alright," I responded curtly."Sweet
Hello,Husband,Goodbye Playful feelings
I breathed a sigh of relief as I glanced over, thankful that it was simply a result of my son's typical four-year-old energy."What's going on?"I inquired, making an effort to conceal any frustration in my tone."He accidentally tipped over his toy chest, but he's okay," Betty responded, her eyes filled with concern.I let out a laugh and tousled Marco's hair, "You really scared me for a moment there, buddy. Let's tidy up this mess, alright?"Marco flashed me a mischievous grin, his bright blue eyes sparkling. "Sure thing, Mommy!"As we gathered the toys strewn across the room, I couldn't help but be amazed at how fast my little boy was maturing. It seemed like only yesterday he was a tiny baby in my arms, and now he was an inquisitive and daring young lad."Mom, can we go to the park now?" Marco asked eagerly.Checking the time, I noticed it was still early in the day. A visit to the park sounded like a wonderful idea to kick off our morning. "Of course, we can go after we have break

Elijah's rendezvous with Hannah was strictly professional, I reassured myself. Yet, a tiny fraction of me couldn't shake off a hint of envy.However, I refused to let those feelings spoil our day, so I plastered on a smile and remarked, "I wish you success in your meeting with Hannah."Elijah flashed me a comforting grin and leaned closer, planting a swift peck on my lips. "No need to fret, it's just a brief gathering."I observed the car departing, carrying Elijah along. Letting out a sigh, I shifted my focus back to the lovely flowers in my grasp. A delightful blend of lilies and roses, my favorites.Lost in contemplation, I failed to see Sofia's car approaching until her voice brought me back to reality."Marcus?" she called out, her voice laced with astonishment.I pivoted to meet her gaze, only to find her stepping out of the car and striding towards Marcus.

"Elijah had an accident," I managed to say, my voice trembling with fear. "What? Which hospital? I'll come with you!" he exclaimed, concern etched on his face. "But Marco needs you more," I insisted.

With a chuckle and a shake of his head, he revealed his true intentions."No, Sam. I just wanted to lighten your load a bit. And I know how much you adore flowers."A wave of guilt washed over me, and I let out a heavy sigh."I'm sorry, Marcus. It's just... everything feels overwhelming. I don't know if I can handle it all."Understanding filled Marcus's eyes as he spoke gently, "I understand, Sam. But you're stronger than you realize. You've faced countless challenges before and emerged even stronger. You can get through this."His words brought comfort, and deep down, I knew he was right. I had to summon my strength for Elijah's sake.Marcus's demeanor shifted to a more solemn tone."While I may not be obligated to you, I still have genuine concern for you, Sam. And I also care deeply for Elijah. He's like a second father to Marco, and I'll do ever
