But it seems like every wound holds a lesson, and maybe you can use this as an opportunity to rise stronger,” I continued, looking at Leon’s face that looked weak but still hoping for a glimmer of hope. Seeing Leon in his vulnerable state reminded me of the strength we have as humans. Everyone falls at some point, but the most important thing is to find a way to get back up. With all my vulnerability, I prayed in my heart that he could feel the positive energy I was spreading, that all of this was part of the love and hope I wanted to give. “Come back to a life full of happiness, Leon. Zara and Zoya are waiting for you. We need all the beautiful things that can come with you.” As I spoke in that silence, I felt a subtle shift in my mind. Maybe it was time to move on. The sadness that once haunted me should not imprison me. We all deserve to be reinvented, to fight, and to re

Ariane’s POV Watching him speak so softly to Zara and Zoya filled me with mixed feelings. Even though I had forgiven Leon for past mistakes, moving back in together was a huge step and I was hesitant about it. This wasn’t a decision to be rushed, and I knew I needed more time to consider my feelings.Leon looked at me, and in that look, I knew he could feel the weight on my heart. “I’ll be back tomorrow, if that’s okay. I want to stay involved in your lives,” he said, his tone hopeful.“I hope you’ll keep trying, Leon. And let’s see how things go. But for now, you should go back and rest,” I said, trying to be supportive while still maintaining boundaries.He nodded, and as he said goodbye, Leon put his arm around me for a moment. “Thank you again. This means a lot to me,” he said, feeling a soft warmth.As he left, I felt both relieved and a little heavy. This was a small step towards mending our relationship, but also giving myself spac

Ariane’s POV After seeing Zara's condition, Laon said goodbye. “I’ll go, but remember, I’m not just our children’s father. I’m also here to support you if you need me,” Leon said before finally walking out, leaving me in turmoil.After he left, I closed the door and sat down on the couch, feeling a deep sense of exhaustion. There was a tension between wanting to have a better relationship and protecting my pain. But right now, my focus had to remain on Zara’s health and providing the best for my daughters. With everything that is happening, I know that step by step, I have to make the right decisions for myself and my children. Although the road ahead seems blurry, I am confident that love and care will be my guide through this uncertainty.The doctor finally came to check on Zara.

Ariane’s POV I felt panic wash over me. Look at what’s happening in this hospital, while my daughter is in intensive care! It felt like all my emotions were popping—worry for Zara, coupled with the tension between Leon and Mark was making me feel even more stressed.“I don’t care! You have no right to be here!” Leon insisted, confronting Mark.“Leon, enough!” I said, trying to mediate. “This isn’t the time or place to fight! We’re here because of Zara, and this isn’t about you!”My words seemed to have gotten through to both of them, but the tension between them was still palpable. Leon digested what I said, while Mark tried to keep his cool, looking a little surprised by Leon’s extreme reaction. “Let’s all calm down. I just want to do what’s best for Zara, just like you,” Mark replied, hoping to defuse the situation.

This aims to help Zara change her negative thought patterns and behaviors so that she can cope with her problems better. In addition, this therapy will also help Zara to manage her stress and emotions more effectively.”I nodded and answered, “This therapy will help Zara to feel better and cope with her problems. I will support her during this therapy process and provide the support needed for Zara to fully recover.”I called my boss at my workplace as a flower shop owner.
