Four and half months later… Time flew at its own pace without any care of anyone. Summer, Spring and Fall all came and went away and now it was Winter's turn. Fortunately or unfortunately this January, it didn’t snow in Toronto. Even though the cold was here but the snow had yet to come. Celeste who was sitting on the table near the window of the tall building smiled, looking at the scene in front of her. Diana was dancing crazily with Mathew at the table while everyone else was cheering up for them. There was loud music going on in the background and everyone was busy dancing, drinking, eating and laughing. Celeste took a sip of her juice while watching Diana's craziness. She had called her a few times to join her but Celeste had refused every time with laughter. She didn’t want to be involved in her craziness. She was too shy for that. It was the day of their annua

Celeste returned from Elora two days before her and Liam's first wedding anniversary. She was excited about that day. These past few days she had missed him terribly. She once even thought to return early just to see him but she couldn’t compromise with her grandma's health. She was glad that it was only seasonal flu and nothing serious. But she was still weak and Celeste couldn’t just leave her beloved grandma alone. She even insisted a few times for her grandma to come with her but that stubborn old lady didn’t listen to her at all. She didn’t want to go out of Elora at all. Celeste knew why. Her grandma loved her grandpa so much which was why she swore to live in Elora with her husband's memories. So all the arguments Celeste had with her grandma about her moving in with her in Toronto were all in vain. She didn’t even budge. Celeste sighed thinking of Marielle's stubbornness.

She excitedly greeted Liam, who was standing at the door with a surprised expression on his face, with a huge smile. She then ran directly towards him and tiptoed before placing her soft lips on his to kiss him. She was so excited that she didn’t even notice him not kissing her back. After kissing him softly on his lips Celeste wrapped her arms around him and hugged him tightly. "Happy anniversary, Baby." She whispered in his neck. She then broke the hug and pulled the motionless Liam who had a blank expression on his face with her. Nevertheless, Liam followed her quietly as she took him where she had arranged the candlelight dinner.

"Well then listen. I didn’t want to marry you either but my grandma wanted me to. I didn't have any problem with the contract either as I understood you were also in the same situation as me. But after I married you everything slowly changed. Your family became my own and you too. I had no one to call mine from my childhood. I had no friends because my grandma was afraid people would hurt me and didn’t let me go out much. I had only my grandpa and grandma. When grandpa died, I still had my grandma. Then you came into my life and living with you made me fall in love with you. I fell in love with your gentleness, your kindness, your beautiful face, your smile and everything. I thought maybe you at least liked me. So I decided to plan a surprise for you and confess to you. But what had I got? A divorce paper!

She mumbled to herself."Are you looking for these?" A deep voice came from behind startling Celeste completely. Celeste put her hands on her chest before turning around to look at the person."Liam! You scared me. Wait! Is that my medicine? What are you doing with them? Give them back to me."

"Celeste!" The moment Celeste came downstairs, she was engraved in a tight motherly hug from Clarissa."Oh honey, Congratulations! I can't explain how happy I'm for you. I didn’t know you two are back together already. I was praying to God to give my stupid son some sort of sanity but I didn’t know he would hear my prayer so past. I still can't believe it. You are pregnant. I'm going to be a grandma for a second time. God! I'm so happy.! Clarissa said while crying tears of joy.

"What did you say?" Liam asked while taking a step back. His voice was calm. To calm to be exact. Celeste didn’t look at his instead she focused her gaze at the floor. Liam carefully looked at her, hoping he heard her wrong. But looking at her face, his heart clenched. He didn’t hear her wrong. Her face looked determined. She wasn’t joking.
