56

Things are calm for the next two weeks, well, heated between Niko and I but cool everywhere else. Just this morning, as he kissed me goodbye after breakfast his lips lingered on mine. “When can I come inside you again?”

Not sure why but my cheeks had heated as I told him “Soon”.

I had to reschedule my appointment with Andera as the funeral fell on the same day the week before and she has some patients she’s had to monitor closely so we keep putting it off.

Eva and Matteo also put aside their misunderstandings and are back together. Matteo haven accepted that as long as they are together, he'll be okay with that.

From my recent call with Mama, all is well in Chicago, even father is behaving himself she said, I didn't know what tbrought about the change, didn’t want to dig too deep into it.

My mother is content and no one is in immediate danger. That is enough for me.

My babies are growing and happy. My marriage is great.

All is well in my world.
