It was his first birthday with his mom and brother, and his Uncle and his cousin so he was giddy with excitement. This year, he knew exactly what he wanted for his birthday party – a superhero-themed extravaganza. “Mom, can we have a superhero party for my birthday? It’ll be so cool!” Jared exclaimed, his eyes shining with anticipation. They had just got done with his assignments for the day. Skylar chuckled at her son’s enthusiasm. “That sounds like a fantastic idea, Jared! We can turn our backyard into a superhero headquarters. You’re lucky your birthday falls on a Friday. Your get to play lots with your friends.” Jared’s face lit up with a grin. “Yes, that would be awesome!” Skylar wasted no time in getting to work. The next two days she spent, transforming their backyard into a superhero paradise. She hung banners featuring Jared’s favourite hero

Jason and Emily sat in the sterile waiting room, their anxiety palpable as they waited for news about their son, Liam. Emily clutched Jason’s hand tightly, her eyes fixed on the door through which the doctor would emerge.After what felt like an eternity, the door finally opened, and a weary-looking doctor stepped into the room. Jason and Emily rose to their feet, their hearts pounding in anticipation.“Liam’s parents, I suppose?” the doctor asked, his voice gentle but serious.“Yes, that’s us,” Emily replied, her voice trembling with worry.The doctor gave them a reassuring smile before delivering his news. “I’ve examined Liam, and it appears that his seizure was not as serious as we initially feared. There’s no evidence of any underlying conditions. However, we would like to keep him here overnight for observation, just to be safe.”Emily let out a sigh of relief, her shoulders sagging with the weight lifted off her chest. “Oh, thank goodness. But why do you need to keep him ov

Skylar stood at the doorway, watching her brother Emilio round up the kids for a day at the park. Valentina, bounced with excitement, while Lorenzo and Jared, chased each other in circles, their laughter echoing through the house. “Are you sure you don’t want to come, Sky?” Emilio called over his shoulder, a playful grin on his face. Skylar shook her head, a smile tugging at her lips. “No, I’ll pass. I’ve got some last-minute shopping to do for Valentina’s birthday party.” Emilio chuckled, tousling Lorenzo’s hair as he herded them out the door. “Alright, suit yourself. We’ll bring back some ice cream for you!” As the front door closed behind them, Skylar let out a sigh, the weight of her decision pressing down on her. She knew she couldn’t keep the truth from her boys forever, but for now, she wanted to shield them from the pain of their father’s absence. She had decided to just never tell the boys about why Jason would be absent from their lives. At least until they were old enoug

Sofia knocked on Skylar’s door with a wide smile, clutching her phone in one hand and a coffee cup in the other. Skylar opened the door, looking surprised to see the teenager standing there alone. “Hey, Sofia! What brings you here?” Skylar asked, stepping aside to let her in. “I thought we could go shopping for the event next weekend. I know it’s still a bit early, but I wanted to make sure you have everything you need,” Sofia replied, handing Skylar the coffee cup as she stepped inside. Skylar furrowed her brows, “Did you come all the way here by yourself? The streets are dangerous young lady! Where’s your Dad? Does he know you’re here?” Sofia chuckled, “Oh, he knows I’m here. He’s caught up with some work, so I thought I’d come over on my own. Plus, it’s a good excuse to hang out with you!” Skylar smiled, feeling touched by Sofia’s gesture, “That’s sweet of you. Thanks for coming , bit next time you wanna hang out, let me know and I’ll pick you up, okay? Let me just change and g

As the auction hall buzzed with excitement, Jason led Pietro, Skylar, and Emilio to their reserved seats. The atmosphere was electric, with the promise of rare treasures up for bidding. “Here we are, gentlemen. Your seats for the evening,” Jason announced, trying to maintain his professional demeanour despite the knot of tension in his stomach. “Thanks, Mr. Reynolds,” Pietro nodded, his eyes already scanning the room, but they lingered a moment longer on Skylar, who flashed him a radiant smile. Skylar’s presence brought a wave of conflicting emotions for Jason. She was his ex-wife, and despite their history, he couldn’t deny the lingering feelings he had for her. So to see her in the arms of another man was making him feel jealous in ways he couldn’t understand. As the auction commenced, Jason attempted to engage Pietro in conversation, hoping to distract himself from the discomfort of Skylar’s proximity. “So, Pietro, what do you think of tonight’s selection?” Jason asked, tr
