Se connecterNoah's POV
I did not know how much time I had been sitting by this room door. The night seemed long too long.At first, I kept hitting it and shouting for Mommy hoping she would unlock it and hear. But as time went on even my own voice began to feel useless, swallowed by the quiet.There was no reply, no steps, no clue of anyone out there. At last, I just sat on the floor, leaning by the locked door with my head down and my breath slow but deep.Sienna's POV Liam only nodded calmly; it was evident from his expression that he was expecting my reaction.“For more than a week.”I laughed softly because it was difficult to believe that he chose this amazing place for us.“This is too much.”“You deserve it.”However, I did not say anything in response because his words made me feel all warm inside, and I quickly looked down before opening the door of the car.Once outside, the sea breeze instantly caressed my cheeks. I even closed my eyes for a brief moment, and it was a really pleasant sensation.Liam stood next to me and watched my reaction. It was nice to see the way he looked when he saw that I liked the atmosphere.“Do you like it?”I opened my eyes and looked at him. It was hard not to smile then.“Very much.”He smiled in return and pointed at the entrance of the hotel.“Then let’s go inside.”Liam grabbed our luggage, and I followed him to the lobby of the hotel.
Sienna's POV When the plane touched down, I felt a lot lighter right away.I wasn't sure if it was since we had at last got to our place or if, for the last few hours, I had really been able to forget all the issues back home. Once we left the airport, Hawaii's air quickly greeted us.Hot. It was not like the breeze I knew at home.I drew in a big breath and grinned. “Hawaii,” I whispered again.Liam, walking next to me, laughed a bit. “You been saying that for while now”“I still can't believe we're really here.”“Did you think we'd turn back halfway?”I turned toward him with a smile. “Who knows?”Liam shook his head. “You're really strange.”I just laughed. We got our bags from the bag place and then went outside to the pick up spot.Liam had set up all things before, counting the car that would drive us to a hotel. I didn't need to worr
Wilona's POV I could not count too much on him. In case Joshua really decided to change his mind, I had to be ready to make all the preparations myself.I could not allow a single person who was beginning to feel guilt to ruin the plan I had prepared. I opened the messages app and started writing something to Liam."Enjoy your vacation."I stopped right before sending it. Having pondered for a while, I deleted the phrase and rewrote it."Hope you have a good trip. We will talk when you come back."I read the phrase again. It was too nice.I deleted it.This time, I wrote a shorter phrase."I know that you are in Hawaii."I looked at it for a while and then pressed send. Having sent it, I put the phone on the table and waited.One minute had passed. No reply.Five minutes. Still no reply.I smiled slightly. I expected it from him. Right now, Liam most likely was sitting next to Sienna and did not want to risk looking at my message.
Wilona's POV Since this morning, I felt that something was odd at the office. Normally, even if Liam's plan was full, I could see him a couple of times whether he came out of a meeting room, walked to the elevator or just passed by the workers area.But today was unlike any other. I had looked down the hall to his office many times.Empty.I checked the clock on my screen again and it was nearly noon.“Where is he?”I shifted my seat a bit while seeing the folks go back and forth. There was no hint of Liam, so I got up and strolled to his secretary's desk.“Excuse me.”Liam's secretary looked up. “Yes, can I help you?”I tried to smile. “Where is Mr. Liam?”The helper looked a bit puzzled. “Mr. Liam?”“Yes.”“Oh, you don't know yet?”I shook my head. “He is on leave.”I fell silent. “On leave?”
Sienna's POV The light turned green, and the car started moving again. I leaned back against the seat and looked out the window, feeling a sense of calm that I had not experienced in a long time.However, a few minutes later, Liam's phone, which was sitting in the storage compartment between us, vibrated. I instinctively turned toward it.Liam glanced at his phone as well. We were both silent for a few seconds.“Don't look,” I said.He looked at me. “Why?”“We made a promise.”Liam smiled faintly. “Right.”His phone vibrated again, this time for longer. I watched Liam's face and noticed a small change that was difficult to explain.His smile disappeared for a moment, and his hand moved as if he wanted to pick up the phone. However, he stopped himself.“I won't look at it,” he said.I nodded. “Good.”A few seconds later, the vibration stopped. I tried not to think about it, even though an uncomfortable feeling was slowly growing in my
Sienna's POV I looked at the suitcases neatly arranged near the front door while checking one more time to make sure we had not forgotten anything. My passport was already inside my small bag, and my wallet, phone, charger, medication, and a few personal belongings were safely packed as well.I took a deep breath. Finally, we were really leaving. After the exhausting weeks we had been through, I wanted to believe that this trip could be a new beginning for us.I turned toward Liam, who was carrying two suitcases toward the car. “Don't let those get mixed up,” I said.Liam turned around. “Which ones?”“The big black suitcase is mine.”He chuckled softly. “Do you really think I would bring someone else's suitcase?”“I'm just reminding you.”“I've been your husband for years. How could I not know which suitcase belongs to my wife?”I smiled. “Sometimes, you really are forgetful.”Liam walked over and took the small bag from my hand.
Sienna's POV “Nooo!" Noah protested cutely. He obediently settled back into the tub. I took a cup and carefully poured warm water over his tiny body ensuring all the soap was rinsed off."Mommy if Noah is capable of performing a move then Mommy must address Noah as Master Noah,
Liam's POV I slid my hands into my pockets as I strolled down the sidewalk. My fingers lightly drummed on my phone, a habit whenever my mind felt cluttered. The sound of my steps merged with the swaying of branches moved by the breeze.Away I noticed my vehicle. The illuminatio
Sienna's POV “Noah was the first to laugh," he confessed. "Then he assisted. Kevin’s fine! He mentioned that falling is a part of ninja training.” I chuckled. "Wow ninja trips often as well huh?” “Indeed! A resilient ninja is one who continually
Sienna's POV I cupped my mouth stifling a chuckle. "Mischievous right?”“Yes!" Noah agreed decisively as though he had uncovered the reasoning. "He didn’t want to end up as chicken soup!”I released a sigh. "So the carrot deserves to be penalized, correct?”
