Ariane’s POV

After we were done playing in the sand, we decided to go for a swim. The sea water felt refreshing, and we all laughed as the waves crashed in. We splashed around, splashed each other, and even tried to jump together as the waves came. This togetherness felt so precious.

As the sun began to tilt to the west, we returned to the picnic spot. Mark brought out the food that had been prepared. “Time for lunch!” he said. We sat together, enjoying sandwiches and fresh fruit while enjoying the beautiful view of the sea. Zara and Zoya told stories about their adventures in the water while Mark and I shared smiles, feeling simple yet meaningful happiness.

After eating, we decided to take a walk along the beach. The soft sand beneath our feet and the soothing sound of the waves created the perfect atmosphere.

    Mark’s POV After a moment that was too long, I finally took a deep breath. "I will not fight you, Leon. I will choose our love over violence." Leon nodded in understanding, although there was disappointment in his eyes. "Very well, Mark. You win this time. But don't think that this fight is over. I will come back and try again." With that, Leon left us. I felt relieved that I had managed to avoid unnecessary bloodshed, but I was still afraid of the threat that continued to lurk in my family. Ambiguity. That's how I feel now.

    Mark’s POVAcross the table, Zoya, who was a few seconds younger than Zara, chimed in, as if she didn’t want to lose attention. “We will always love each other, right, Daddy?”I nodded firmly, holding Zoya’s hand gently. “Yes, love is the most important thing. No matter what happens, we will always love each other.” Both children smiled, relieved to hear my calming words. In the corner of the table, Ariane, my wife, also smiled. She witnessed how I struggled and succeeded in rebuilding the warmth of our family since the divorce.“Daddy, how did Daddy and Mama meet?” Zara asked again, now in a lighter tone, as if the conversation had lifted a burden from her shoulders. My eyes sparkled as I remembered her past. “Oh, it’s a long story, Zara. I always met your mother at the flower shop where your mother worked. Since then, we have been inseparable.”Zoya, who loved hearing her parents’ stories, became even more interested. “Is it like in a fairy tale

I sighed softly, trying to figure out how to explain to Zara and Zoya that our camping plans would have to be postponed. The two little girls always got excited whenever they heard about outdoor adventures. They loved the idea of ​​sleeping in a tent, listening to the sounds of nature, and having a campfire and roasting marshmallows.“Okay, I’ll tell them,” I told Mark. “But we have to reschedule soon. They’ve been waiting for this.”Mark nodded, his face showing guilt. “I’m sorry, honey. I know how much they’ve been looking forward to this. Maybe we can plan for next weekend?”“Yeah, that’s a great idea.

    Ariane’s POVI sighed as I tended to the plants in the backyard. The scent of wet soil and the fragrance of blooming flowers reminded me of the good old days when I worked at a flower shop. Back then, my life was full of color and hope. However, now, my life felt more complicated with the presence of Leon, my ex-husband. After Mark left for work and the kids went to school, I felt as if the world around me was quiet. I recalled how Leon suddenly appeared a few weeks ago. Even though he was Zara and Zoya's biological father, his presence made me feel anxious. I didn't want anything to ruin the happiness I had built with Mark. "Why did he have to come now?" I thought as I trimmed some dry leaves from the rose plant. "We've built a new life, and I don't want the past to haunt us." I remembered the first time I met Mark at the flower shop. They shared the same love for plants and flowers. Mark was a patient and caring person, very different from Leon wh

Images of memories flashed through my mind—days of vision during our marriage that quickly turned into moments of tension. I took a deep breath, trying to push the images away. Suddenly, my phone vibrated. A text message came in from Mark, who was at work, asking if I wanted to go for a walk. I quickly answered it, trying not to show that I was feeling anxious. When we met, Mark had been cheerful and enthusiastic, trying to make me laugh. Every smile he gave me could erase a little of the darkness that was hanging over my mind.

It felt like there was something I couldn’t let go of, something that kept reminding me of the pain I had experienced. “Hey, are you okay?” Mark asked softly.

Have you seen the recipe?”Zara nodded and opened the recipe book on the table. “We need flour, sugar, butter, eggs, and chocolate, right?” she asked excitedly.“That’s right! Besides that, we also need baking powder and a little salt. Let’s get everything from the kitchen,” I said, inviting Zara and Zoya to help.After all the ingredients were gathered on the table, Dad continued, “The second step is to melt the chocolate.

However, when I saw the empty dining table and the quiet living room, worry clouded my mind. My gaze was directed to the bedroom where the lights were still on. I found Ariane lying on the bed, closing her eyes with a frown on her forehead, holding back her discomfort. "Ariane, are you okay?" I called softly as I approached the bed. Ariane opened her eyes slowly. Her face was pale. She tried to smile reassuringly, but none of them were fooled. "Just still a little dizzy, Mark. Maybe because I've been too tired lately." I knew Ariane too well to believe those light words. Lately, Ariane had been visiting her flower shop less often. The small business she had pioneered with great enthusiasm seemed to be a burden as her health condition slowly declined without me realizing it. "Ariane, let's go to the hospital!" I said firmly. I
