تسجيل الدخولSienna’s POV
I rubbed my face, trying to stop the flood. But the more I resisted, the clearer the details became.Maybe others would say I was just being too emotional. That I should be able to distinguish between affection and attachment. But who could measure that? Who could decide when love has gone too deep to let go?Since a week ago, I’d been trying to write about these feelings—about a loss not caused by death, but by a distance I created myself. Every time I started, myEmily's POV Rachel did not know what it felt like to always be compared. She did not know what it felt like to always lose. Yet the words stayed trapped in my throat. There was no way I could say everything now, especially not in front of Rachel. Robert finally walked closer until he was standing right in front of me. His cold gaze never left my face. “I don’t care about whatever personal issues you people had in the past,” he said coldly. “But don’t drag Rachel into it.” My body immediately tensed. Our eyes met for a few seconds, and I knew. He was starting to realize there was something much bigger behind all of this. I quickly looked away and let out a faint laugh. “You’re all overreacting.” “Really?” Robert’s voice was low now. Dangerous. “Because from what I can see, you’re the one getting overly emotional every time Noah’s name is mentioned.”
Emily's POV That morning was supposed to be peaceful.I was doing pilates in my favorite private studio, a spacious room with huge glass walls overlooking the small garden in the center of the house. Sunlight streamed in softly, the sound of a small fountain felt calming, and the scent of lavender filled the air.Slowly, I controlled my breathing while holding my position on the mat. The pilates instructor who came every week kept giving gentle instructions, but my mind wasn’t focused at all this morning.Too many things were running through my head.Rachel.Noah.The match from last night that had been all over social media since early morning.I honestly hadn’t intended to look at any of it. Yet even when I opened my phone just to reply to work emails, videos of Noah winning in the ring still appeared everywhere.People were talking about him.Praising his courage.Repeating his name over and over again.What irritated m
Sienna's POV The next evening, we finally really went out to eat together.I chose a warm, cozy restaurant filled with soft golden lights that made the atmosphere feel calm. Noah sat across from me while Liam stayed beside me. Somehow just seeing Noah sitting there was enough to make my heart feel peaceful.It still didn’t feel real.A few days ago, I was terrified of losing him.Now Noah was here, having dinner with us while occasionally laughing softly at Liam’s jokes.I had been watching him the entire time.The way Noah ate so enthusiastically.The way he had started talking more again.The way he occasionally complained whenever I kept adding more food onto his plate.“Mommy, enough.”“Noah, finish your vegetables.”“I already ate a lot.”“Still not enough.”Noah immediately let out a long sigh with a helpless expression that made Liam chuckle.
Sienna's POV I still couldn’t stop smiling after Noah’s match ended. It felt like a huge weight had finally been lifted off my chest. Watching Noah stand in that ring, fighting until the very end, then winning honestly, I still could barely believe it. My son had really grown up. Maybe all this time, I’d been so busy being afraid that I forgot to see that. I stood beside Noah, occasionally fixing his slightly messy hair damp from sweat. The bouquet was still in his hands while Liam stayed busy checking the photos he had taken earlier. “Oh, this one’s good,” I said while looking at his phone screen. “You can totally see Noah smiling.” “Mommy.” Noah complained immediately, embarrassed. I laughed softly. “What? You look handsome.” Noah let out a helpless sigh right away. Honestly It had been so long since I’d seen that expression on him. A relaxed expression. One that wasn’t
Noah's POV I looked up toward the stands.Mommy was. Laughing at the same time hugging Daddy tightly before waving that giant banner again like the proudest person in the world.Nearby Rachel was still standing there watching me.This time her gaze wasn’t cold. Instead it held something softer.I let out a breath.Then without realizing it I smiled a little.Everything I went through finally felt worth it.Once the match ended and the atmosphere calmed down a little I finally climbed down from the ring with my body feeling weak.My breathing still hadn’t fully returned to normal sweat soaking my face and neck yet somehow my chest felt light.Really light.After a few steps down Mommy ran toward me first.“Noah!"The second she wrapped me in a tight hug.I stumbled slightly becaus
Noah's POV My breathing was a mess.That was the only thing running through my mind as my body nearly got trapped against the ring ropes. My arms felt heavy, my jaw throbbed from the earlier hit, and the roar of the crowd blended into a dizzying hum inside my ears.My opponent still stood in front of me with a confident stare.As if he already knew I was running out of energy.I stepped back half a pace while trying to steady my breathing.Don’t fall.Don’t lose now.Coach kept shouting from outside the ring, but my head was too crowded to catch his words clearly.“Noah!”That voice cut through all the noise.Mommy.I glanced toward the audience for a second.Mommy stood there gripping that huge banner with a panicked expression. Daddy stood beside her, watching the match with tense eyes.Then Mommy shouted again.“Noah, don’t give up!”My chest tightened instantly.Not because of exhaustion. Something else hit me
Liam's POV Slowly, I leaned toward Noah. With his eyes closed and breathing normally, the little red robot remained tightly gripped against his chest. My lips curled up with a small smile as I carefully unbuckled his seatbelt.The warmth in his body made it feel like I was embracing the
Sienna’s POV Emily still sat across from me, calm, as if knowing that her words were enough to ignite the fire she desired. He didn't need to add anything more, because his silence was already proof of his superiority.Time passed slowly. The sound of Noah's laughter from afar, the
Sienna's POV The car slowed down and finally stopped in front of a restaurant with an elegant signboard, large windows, and warm lights glittering from inside. I looked around in confusion, even glancing at Liam with my brows raised.“Why are we stopping here?” I asked.Liam glanced
Sienna’s POV I stood in front of the grand gate of the private elementary school, gazing at the school’s name elegantly engraved on a marble plaque. The gate was tall, made of sturdy black iron, adorned with purple bougainvillea flowers cascading beautifully on both sides. From inside came t
