LOGINLiam’s POV
As soon as the bedroom door closed behind me, I let out a long breath, as if finally releasing the weight that had been pressing on my chest since morning. I tossed my suit carelessly onto a chair and loosened my tie with a lazy tug.All I wanted was a hot shower, steam filling the room, then to sit in silence without having to be anyone neither a director, nor a husband, nor a man who always had to look like he was holding everything together.But the knock came too sSienna's POVMy phone started ringing while I was sitting in the living room trying to calm down. For some reason today felt off. I had been feeling uneasy all day ever since Noah walked out the door.I looked at my phone. It was a number I did not know. My heart started beating right away. I answered it. "Hello?"The person at the end sounded very serious. "Good Afternoon is this Mrs. Sienna?""Yes this is me.""We are calling from the hospital. We need to tell you that your son, Noah is here because he was in an accident -"Everything just stopped."What?" My voice was shaking. "An accident?""Yes, ma'am. He is being taken care of now. We think you should come here soon as you can."My hands started shaking fast. "Yes I will be there."I do not even remember how I ended the call. My phone almost fell out of my hand. "Noah." I said it out loud softly.
Noah's POV I looked at her. I wondered why she had that look on her face. Why did she even care about me?Rachel took another step closer to me. Her eyes were fixed on me like she was scared I would fall apart. "You have done enough," she said in a voice but I could hear the firmness in it.Her hand went up a little like she wanted to touch me. She stopped herself.I let out a laugh. It was a laugh. "Enough?" The word sounded strange to me. I shook my head a little. A sharp pain went through my head. "Not yet it is not enough."I tried to take another step. My legs gave way. I lost my balance. If my coach was not holding me I would have fallen on the asphalt again."Look at yourself Noah," my coach said loudly. I did not turn around. I did not care. I was looking at Rachel."I promised," I whispered to myself. "I said I would win."Rachel shook her head quickly. This time she
Noah’s POVThe end line was coming near, more clear with each moment and I could sense it I was nearly there. My hands gripped the handles tight, my breath not steady but my brain was focused on one thing, winning.I turned the gas harder, and the pace shot up right away. The breeze hit my body while the motor loud like it was driving me ahead, giving my willpower."I can do this," I said softly, my mind getting clearer. I looked to the side and saw one rider still trying to keep up, not wanting to lag behind.No, I wouldn't let him. I pushed the speed more, not caring about the strain growing in my body as I closed the gap to finish.Just a bit more. It's nearly there. But then I saw it, a sharp turn before the finish line.I ought to hav͏e eased up. I ought to have watched the turn slowly, thought about each move like I was taught to do.But I did not. I was too fixated on the end point, too ca
Noah's POVAs soon as I stepped outside I took a deep breath. The morning air felt fresh. My mind was not calm at all.I put on my helmet. I got on my bike. The engine. It made me feel excited.I closed my eyes for a moment. I thought about Rachel, the promise I made to her all the training I did and the pain I felt. Today I would show her what I can do.I opened my eyes. I started riding my bike without waiting. There was no going now.The sound of engines was loud as I entered the racing area. I could smell the asphalt, gasoline and heat.This place was full of energy. People were everywhere cheering and shouting. The other racers were already ready.I stopped my bike. Took off my helmet. Today I would find out if all my hard work was worth it.My eyes looked around the crowd until I found Rachel.She was standing near the stands, alone. She looked very elegant. She
Noah's POV Today is finally here.I stood in front of the mirror taking a breath as I adjusted my jacket. My helmet was already in my hand. My gloves were resting on the table.My heart was beating faster than usual. Not because I was afraid. Because this was something I had to win. One of the things I had promised Noah had to do.I looked at myself in the mirror. There were still bruises on the corner of my face and my body felt tired. My eyes were full of determination.I said to myself. "I have to win."Without waiting longer I stepped out of my room and headed downstairs. Soon as I reached the living room I saw Mom already standing there as if she had been waiting for Noah.My steps slowed slightly."NOAH!" I Looked at mommy.."Where are you going now?" she asked, her voice calm but filled with suspicion.I let out a breath. "I am going out for
Sienna's POVI looked at Liam closely. "Including Noah.”It was quiet between us for a moment. Liam did not say anything for a second.Then he spoke again. "Our job now is not to hold Noah back, " he said in a soft voice.I frowned. "Then what is our job?”Liam said, "To give Noah a chance.”I could not believe what I was hearing. "A chance?" Liam added, "Time.”I shook my head quickly. "Time for what? To move away from us?”My voice got louder again. "Our job as Noah's parents is to guide him and not let him get lost.”Liam looked at me intently. "I am not letting Noah get lost.”His voice was still calm. It was firmer now. "I am making sure Noah does not feel alone.”I stopped talking.Liam kept talking, "You are worried. I know that.”He looked at me with eyes. "That is normal.”I lowered my head a lit
Noah's POV It was about a simple realization. I wasn’t just curious about Rachel anymore. I was starting to truly want to be part of her world. Maybe, slowly, let her into mine too.The afternoon breeze blew gently, carrying the scent of the city mixed with the faint fragrance of Rachel’
Noah's POV “Wow.” Rachel murmured softly. Tall shelves stood neatly in rows. A few students were already seated at long tables, focused on their laptops and notes. “I like places like this,” she said. “Sounds like you’re the type who likes reading.”

Sienna's POV “I’m not starting anything,” I replied quickly.“You’re already planning strategies.”I turned and looked at him with an innocent expression that clearly wasn’t convincing.“I just want to know who my son is spending his first day in a new world with,” I said quietly
