SELENAI didn't know I had been holding back my breath until I watched Mitchell walk through the door. I released a sigh of relief. Honestly, I had little to no faith that she would come back, but seeing her making her way through the door made my face lit up with a smile.“Hey,” I smiled, waving my hand as she walked up to me. I wondered if the wave was necessary but I couldn't compromise my happiness to see her.Mitchell returned the smile, her lips curved to one side as she stretched out her hand for me. “Here, have it.” she beamed, handing me one of the two coffee cups in her hands.I took the cup from her and held it with both hands. “Thank you.” Mitchell nodded her head, taking her seat beside me on the long bench. She took a sip from her coffee, sighing as she moved her gaze up to the sky.The question burst out of my mouth before I could stop it. I had been dying to ask her what had happened, why she had disappeared, and now I couldn't contain myself any longer. I had to know

PEDRO“I wonder how it's going.” Roy sighed, tapping his fingers lazily on the files on the table.I tugged at my glasses and peeled it off my face. “You should know better than anyone that nothing is going to happen.” I shook my head and picked up my phone to check if I had any unopened messages from Mitchell. But there was none.His hand paused an inch from the file, and he averted his gaze from the file to me, flashing me a deadly glare from across the couch where he was sitting. “You’re only saying this because you're not the one that was threatened with his life if anything should happen to her.” he scoffed, grabbed his glass of whiskey and gulped it down his throat.I dropped my phone back on the table and groaned out. “Man, take it easy, would you?” I honestly didn't understand why he would be panicking if I let Mitchell work at the hospital. He wanted her to live a free life but wouldn't do anything about it.“If I'm not taking it easy, will I be sitting here going through th
Mommy, I Want You To Marry Daddy! 48 — Just please, stop talking.
SELENA‘Oops, my first day at work is no fun at all.’ I chuckled, remembering Mitchell's whining after she realized that the patient she was assigned to was still sleeping and wouldn't wake up until the time she needed to get back home.“God. I miss her.” I smiled, got out of the cab and shook my head, not believing any of what happened back there at the hospital.Meeting Mitchell was still like a dream to me. A dream I never wanted to wake up from. And the fact that the patient she was assigned to was no other person but Edward made it feel surreal. ‘Let’s meet tomorrow if you have a chance. I will text you the location.’ I lowered my gaze to my phone, and seeing her name in my contact list made my smile widen.She had given me her number and invited me to meet her at the coffee shop before she went to work. I was excited at the prospect of seeing her again. Then, my mind drifted off to what happened the last time I visited the coffee shop made my smile widen. I moved my hand to my
Mommy, I Want You To Marry Daddy! 49 — No. Fuck, don't!
SELENAThe car pulled to a stop outside the hospital, and for a moment, we just sat there, not moving. Christopher's knuckles were white as he gripped the steering wheel. The silence was deafening, and I wasn't sure how to break it. I didn't want to make things worse, but I couldn't stand the stillness any longer."Are you angry with me?" I asked, my voice trembling. My eyes welled up with tears as I stared at my trembling fingers, unable to look him in the eye. I was afraid of what he might say.He sighed heavily, running his fingers over the steering wheel. "I wish I could be angry with you, Selena," he said, his voice heavy with emotion. "But I can't. I just can't." He shook his head, his frustration evident. I felt like my heart was breaking, hearing those words. I didn't know what to say, or what to do."I'm sorry," I said, my voice small and vulnerable. It was a phrase I had uttered so many times in the past few days, that it felt like a broken record. But this time, it felt dif

CHRISTOPHER As we pulled up to the hospital ward, I saw a figure sitting on a bed, reading a book. From the distance, I couldn't make out who it was, but I had a feeling that it was Mr. Edward. I saw Selena tense up beside me, her fingers gripping my sleeve tightly. I knew she was nervous, but I also knew we had to go in.I leaned close and whispered in her ear, "You've got this. Don't be nervous." I gave her hand a gentle squeeze before releasing it from my sleeve. I knew she was feeling anxious, but I also knew that she was strong enough to handle this. I gave her a reassuring smile and took a deep breath.Selena took a deep breath, and I could see her resolve hardening. She gave me a small nod as if to say that she was ready to face whatever was on the other side of the door. She reached out, her hand trembling slightly, and opened the door."Edward!" Selena called out, her voice shaking slightly. The man looked up from his book, his eyes widening as he saw her standing there. A s

CHRISTOPHER I walked over to the person and sat down next to them, taking the empty seat beside them. They didn't seem to notice my presence, their head still hanging low as they wept. Their sobs were now softer, their grief seeming to have subsided slightly. I sat there, unsure of what to do or say. I just wanted to be there for them, in case they needed anything.I cleared my throat, trying to find the right words to say. "Hey, man. Are you good?" I asked softly. I wanted to let him know that I was there if he needed to talk. I could see that he was struggling, and I wanted to offer him a listening ear.I raised my hand and placed it on his back. The man remained silent, his shoulder trembling slightly under my hand. I kept my hand there, hoping that the gesture would offer him some comfort. I was starting to feel a bit anxious, unsure of what to do next. But I knew that I needed to give him time to process his emotions. So I waited and hoped that he would eventually open up to me
Mommy, I Want You To Marry Daddy! 52 — Meet my son.
SELENA"What did she say?" I asked, as I approached Christopher, who was holding his phone between his shoulder and his ear. He gave me a quick glance and a tight-lipped smile and then turned his attention back to the phone call.I could tell that he was trying to focus on the conversation, but I was curious to know what was going on. I tried to be patient and wait for him to finish the call, but my curiosity got the better of me.As I started to turn away from him, he shook his head and grabbed my hand. I stopped in my tracks, unsure of what to do. He continued talking on the phone, motioning for me to wait. I stood still, trying not to fidget or move around too much. It was clear that he wanted me to stay put until he was done with the call.I could feel my heart beating faster, my mind racing with questions about what was happening with the babysitter. I tried to remain calm, but I was starting to feel anxious about the situation.Christopher gave me a sheepish smile as he put his
Mommy, I Want You To Marry Daddy! 53 — He's such a sweetheart.
SELENA"I can't believe it!" Mitchell exclaimed, a big smile spreading across her face. She couldn't stop staring at Liam, who was sitting on my lap, happily gazing back at her. "You have a son? How did this happen?" She looked at me, her eyes wide with curiosity. I let my gaze dropped to the floor as I thought to myself; perhapsI had made a mistake by bringing Liam out. A huge mistake at that."Crazy right?" I said, laughing nervously. I took Liam's hands in mine, starting to clap them together. He giggled, completely oblivious to the tension in the air."Not crazy," Mitchell said firmly, raising her index finger for emphasis. Her face lit up with a bright smile, and she leaned forward, fixing her gaze on me. "It's just... unexpected. But it's not crazy at all." She reached out and placed her hand on my arm, giving it a reassuring squeeze.I met her gaze, feeling my own smile forming on my lips. "Thanks," I said, feeling the tension in my body start to melt away. "I really appreciat
