They weren’t getting back together, but they were learning to co-parent with beauty and shared regard. As he sat there, his phone buzzed. It was a message from Alexis. Alexis: "Would you like to get coffee at some point?" Haven gazed at the message, his heart beating. He knew what this was, an olive department, a chance to reconnect, but took an update that things wouldn’t be the same as before. He could be her companion, her friend, but not her fallback. He took a deep breath, writing his reaction carefully. Haven: "I’d like that. At whatever point you’re prepared." It wasn’t perfect, but it was enough. For now, that was all he required. And perhaps, fair possibly, it would be enough for her as well.Haven sat on the edge of his bed, gripping the mattress as the world spun around him. It wasn’t the heat. It wasn’t hunger. He hadn’t even been stressed today—at least, not more than usual. Yet here he was, lightheaded, as if the ground beneath him were slipping away.The sensation fe

Alexis gazed at the phone in her hand, her heart hustling. The recognizable fear crawled in, What if I made a mistake? What if I demolished everything? But at that point, she heard Dr. Whittaker’s voice in her mind. You’re permitted to select yourself, Alexis. You don’t have to win anyone’s love. She took a profound breath and set the phone down on the table. This time, there was no frantic encouragement to call him back, no freeze clawing at her chest. Just calm. And in that calm, Alexis felt something new, something delicate but genuine. A sense of peace. She grinned, just a little, and let herself breathe.Alexis continued her day feeling victorious. She knew she had just won the battle but the war was still right there in front of her and she wasn’t scared to face it. She has Matthew right where she wants to and there is no more possessive attitude that she experiences from him anymore.She tried to arrange some few things in the living room, but her heart was so heavy she got eas

As the day wore on, a sense of anticipation began to build. A new opportunity had presented itself, a chance to pursue a long-held dream. The thought of it filled him with excitement and a touch of nervous energy. But it was a good kind of nervousness, a spark that ignited his passion.Now, as he lay in the quiet darkness, he pondered the future. The signs were all there: the fruitful garden, the renewed friendships, the promising opportunity. It was as if the universe was conspiring to guide him towards a brighter tomorrow.With a peaceful sigh, Haven surrendered to sleep. He knew that the dreams he would soon dream would be filled with hope and promise. And when he woke, he would rise with a renewed sense of purpose and a heart full of gratitude.Haven’s heart sank the minute he saw Alexis walk through the office doors, her certain walk never mistaken. It had been months since his spouse, Alexis, left him for Matthew, her new lover, and in that time, Alexis had returned in ways Haven

Alexis sat at the edge of her bed, her fingers clutching her phone as her mind hustled. The e-mail from the bank had been sitting in her inbox for hours, the head line alone enough to bend her stomach: "Suspicious Action on Your Joint Account." She knew it was time to stop overlooking the ruddy banners she'd been waving away for months. Her fiancé, Matthew, had been acting funny, and now she had the proof. She wavered for a minute before opening her phone. Immediately the email opened, a protuberance shaped in her throat. There were numerous withdrawals, each bigger than the final. To begin with $100,000 then $300,000. By the time she looked over to the end, the total amount was over $2 million, gone from the savings they’d been building for their wedding. Her heart sank more deeply with each figure. Matthew had promised they were in this together, sparing for their future. And now, he had depleted the account without a word. Her jaw fixed. She tried to think of excuses, maybe he ha

Alexis didn’t drag her hand away, but she looked down at the ring once more, her lips squeezing into a lean line. “Why does it feel like I’ve been left with nothing?” “Because shock could be a thief,” Haven said delicately. “It takes more than just the person, it takes your sense of worth with it. But that’s a lie. You still have all of you, Alexis.” For a long minute, neither of them talked. The hum of discussion and clinking glasses filled the hush between them, a foundation clamour to the turmoil whirling in Alexis’s mind. Haven gave her hand a soft touch. “Let’s get out of here. This place isn’t precisely built for healing.” Alexis wavered but at that point nodded, thankful for the life saver he was proposed to. They ended up at Haven’s flat, the air thick with the comforting fragrance of coffee and cinnamon candles. Alexis twisted up on the couch, holding a warm mug between her hands while Haven sat over from her, his expression open and understanding. “It’s not just Mat
