"So, John is adamant about this? I mean about shifting to a different city?" Sebastian asks from the other end of the call as I stay silent, lying on the bed and looking up at the ceiling.

Sebastian doesn't urge me to reply right away and waits for me to respond.

I let out a deep sigh and clear my throat.

"He's not adamant but he has a good reason. Ryan has nightmares every night. Both the kids are unable to move on from this tragedy. They need a change in environment and it'll be good for them if they move somewhere with no memory of their mother", I tell him the exact things John had told me about his decision.

I have been thinking about this matter the whole day and it kept bugging me. I couldn't do anything right. It kept ringing inside my head and I thought of calling John right away and asking him to drop this idea. But I also understand that his reasons are valid.

"And what do you feel about it?" Sebastian asks.

I don't know how I'm going to express all these things

    Tiffany I didn't think I would get to see John this morning since he used to leave even before sunrise and sometimes we wouldn't even know he had come back. It's nine of the morning and he's still in the mansion. Ryan and Kevin don't have school today. I peeked into their room and found them sleeping. Maybe, it's a good opportunity to talk to him right now. John is quietly having his breakfast when I take my seat in front of him. He looks up at me with a half-smile."Good morning!" he says."Good morning", I mutter. "That's surprising. You're still at home today?""Well, yeah, actually!" he clears his throat. "I thought you might want to talk to me""Literally!" I say, forcing a smile and serving my breakfast. We quietly continue to gobble the food in silence for a while before I eventually break it. "I didn't think much about the matter last night", I tell him and he looks up at me, halting for a second."I didn't ask you to rush. It's okay. Take your time", he tells me. "No", I

    Tiffany Sebastian halts with the leftover stuffed into his mouth as he looks down at me, a bit surprised. "Are they?" swallowing the lump, he asks to be sure, I guess. I nod. "Yeah. I talked to him this morning and told him that I agree with him and I don't have any problem if they leave the city!"He just blinks a couple of times as if he's confused and no words escape his mouth."Why do you look so confused?" I mutter."Nah. I'm not confused", he gives me a half-smile. "I just didn't expect you to conclude this matter so fast. I mean I thought you would need time", he says."I would definitely need time", I let out a sigh. "Unless I didn't talk to you last night. I knew deep down what was right but I was not ready to do that. That conversation helped me a lot to control my emotions and make practical decisions. And I took it", I confidently say.A lovely smile curves on his face and he kisses my forehead lightly."I'm so glad that you could figure it all out and I could help you

    Sebastian "What?" I ask.She eyes me with a cold stare. "I thought you wanted me to move in?" she exclaims and the disappointment in her eyes is visible. It leaves me completely surprised that she might want to move in with me. "I— I do. I surely do", I say in a firm tone. "I wasn't just sure that you would appreciate the idea", I tell her.She rolls onto her stomach on my chest and looks straight into my eyes. "Or you were too scared to tell me what you want", she says, raising her eyebrows at me. "Am I right?""I don't know", I mutter, lowering my eyes. She rests her head on my chest and we don't face each other anymore now. I dip my fingers into her hair, caressing them as her fingertips roam around my skin. "Last night, you asked me if you can call me yours", she whispers."I remember", I smile. "And I said that yes. I'm yours", she adds. "And I truly meant what I said, Sebastian""I know", I tighten my grip around her torso. "But why do I feel like you can't seem to unde

    Sebastian"That was a crazy ass confession!" she hisses. "Yeah. Sort of", I scratch the back of my head, slightly peeking at her amused face. "I should have—""You should have done what you did", she scoffs. "That's what I wanted""You wanted me to speak like a frustrated jerk?" I murmur."Nah. You're not frustrated", she chuckles, stepping closer to me as I receive her with my arms wrapped around her waist. She snakes her arms around my neck, smiling at me. "By that smile, you're giving me, should I consider that I have convinced you?" I wink at her, grinning.She folds her bottom lip, crinkles her nose, and shakes her head."Nope. Not yet, Advocate!" she tells me. My smile fades away as I grimace at her. "Oh! Won't lie. I'm disappointed. But you're smiling"She cracks up, pulling my cheek. "Because I'm happy that you could tell me what you have been feeling the whole time"I let out a sigh. "It must be good to hear now, Tiffany. It wouldn't be really good to hear if I told you t

    Tiffany We talked a lot today. I'm glad that I took this whole day out for him because we needed to have this conversation. I have finally decided to move in with him. Nonetheless, it'll come with more challenges and I'm ready for it. This decision will not only make our relationship stronger but also give me a world of my own. I can't wait to finally live my life in my own conditions and happiness. Sebastian asked me if he could help me anyway. But I refused to take any help from him as I did with John. It's my call to explore and look for opportunities which I'll be doing from today. I'm thinking about having a conversation with John again. I want him to change his decision of holding back until I settle down. Because that's impossible. I'll need a lot of time to clean the mess and organise my life and I think I'll surely do it if I have Sebastian.I'm glad that Sebastian understood me and more than that he trusted me enough.

    Tiffany We stop by the nursery. It's one of the biggest nurseries in the city which I can completely believe by the way it looks. The boys run into the green surrounding and I and Sebastian slowly walk to see the plants. One of the workers accompany us, showing us all the kinds of plants we could use for decor. "I want the real ones", he says as I scan those plants which need no sunlight. They would be perfect for indoors."These are real ones too. These are just indoors", I say, watching his expression change. "But I still don't find the realness in them. You can take these. I'll look for others", he walks away to find his REAL plants as I shake my head at him in disbelief.We load all the plants we have got for the decor and Ryan and Kevin took two small ones to plant in the yard. Even though they won't be staying here, they wish to see it all grown up when they would occasionally visit. After that, we stop by a restaurant to have lunch.

"Isn't it something to be excited about?" I blurt out. "She's moving in with me. Isn't it amazing? People can't even go past dating and we are really moving in!" I tell her and she smiles wider, sitting in front of my desk."That's true", she says. "I'm just wondering what you would do once you guys announce the marriage!" she laughs but on a serious note, it makes my heart stop for a while.She pauses, looking at me. "Sorry. I should not have said that?"I chuckle. "Nah! Nothing like that. I just spaced out when you talked about marriage""Ah! So, that means you're thinking about it", she leans to the desk.

    JohnGetting married in the 50s isn't that strange anymore. But for me, it was— for a man who believed his marriage would last forever and then believed he would never marry again. I stood before the mirror as Ryan helped other groomsmen with their last fit."You all look pretty handsome. Ready to leave. But I wish Kevin had that time to get a good fit. Your suit sucks!""I feel better anyway", Kevin snarls. I chuckle while fixing my bow tie, watching my sons in their 20s still fighting like toddlers. It's been a blessing for me to have a family which didn't break even after the biggest disaster. And maybe it was because, in our family, it had always been us. Me and my two boys. Their mother wasn't there. The death was just a formality. I didn't really change that much. My boys were happier than ever after she died. It's really mean of me to think that way but it was the truth. They were traumatised because they were kids. As they grew up, I realised they had a better and healthier

    Tiffany Emery runs to Sebastian. "Da—dy"And he immediately drives his eyes down and takes her in his arms. They both look at me lovingly. Now, I don't feel bad about pushing the wedding. This feeling would not be the same if we got married before Emery came. Ryan and Kevin walk beside me to the aisle. I wanted them to do this honour because if there's anyone in this world I still love more than Sebastian and Emery, My eyes become teary as I walk to them. Sebastian spreads his arm at me and I immediately dig into his chest.He leans closer to my ear."My beautiful bride"I smile against his chest and look up. He takes my hand and leads me to the centre.

    TiffanyI can't figure out how to react and what it's all about because I don't wanna assume anything unreasonable. He's on his knees with a damn ring.It means— God! I can't— comprehend it. My eyes flutter open at his handsome face. No words come out of my mouth. I'm at a loss of words."I know you're shocked! And I'm sorry if I scared you with this sudden—" he doesn't complete, yet keeps his eyes straight into mine. "But I couldn't keep this longer inside me, Tiffany. I had known a long time ago that I needed you in my life. Forever! And I'm not scared to ask you that—"With that pause, my heartbeat stops and my entire body shivers when I wait for him to complete."Will you marry me?" I feel goosebumps littering all over me with those words. Did he really ask me for marriage? It takes me a while to process. His eyes are full of fear and hope and I'm left in shock. Never in my wildest dreams, I had imagined he would propose to me. I hear some people around cheering up and root

They are doing good in their new school and John has also settled into his new office over there. I and Sebastian balanced our life beautifully, supporting each other. As days and weeks passed, our love grew stronger. Among everything, I was happy with the fact that I have my identity now. A good identity.

In a year, I was promoted to manager of the daycare centre, life couldn't be any less beautiful. It's been two years, I and Sebastian are together and we are living our best life.
