LOGINSienna's POV
I looked up, meeting his eyes at this close distance. His face looked tired. There were faint dark circles, his jaw not as sharp as usual, and his eyes… God, those eyes made me want to crumble.The sky above us felt too vast, too empty to hold everything left unsaid. The salty air clung to my skin, mixing with the scent of the sea that should have been calming, but now only tightened my chest. The waves behind me kept rolling in, their rhythm constant, like the ticking of a clock reminding me that time moved on even when I wanted to pause for a moment.I watched him in silence, trying to read everything hidden beneath his expression. There was something broken there, something he once hid so well behind faint smiles or flat sentences. Now, the cracks were visible—like shards of glass reflecting the morning sun. Each reflection stung my eyes, yet I couldn’t look away.Liam stood too close. Only a few steps separated us, yet the distance felt like an uncSienna's POV I slowly exhale as a tear falls from the corner of my eye. It slips off my face.It's a relief that it doesn't feel depressing.I can now love him again without any fear.The night has arrived with a completely dark sky outside the window, and only the moonlight is still visible through the curtains.With the passing wind, the air is filled with the scent of drizzling rain.I close my eyes again, thinking of Liam and Noah. It has been a long time since I last saw anything like this in my house.The idea of going back may be more accurate, as the heart finally opens up and allows for a change. The night grows deeper. I lay back, lift the blanket towards my chest, and smile softly on my face. Why?It doesn't make me feel lonely here.Our relationship has shifted slightly, but the difference is undeniable. Why?Despite the uncertainty surrounding our relationship, I have hope for something at least.The love I use
Sienna's POV I exerted myself as much as I could to keep this family together. My cooking, writing, and cleaning skills were perfected as if they could mend any broken ties between us. It wasn't until the following night that I found myself alone.He was constantly on the move and had excuses for being absent.Until one day, I just stopped waiting. I learned not to hope. I was taught to love from a distance. I became accustomed to being alone.Yet, despite everything, there was a portion of me that never truly perished. A portion of the group remained convinced that Liam would gaze at me in the future, not due to pressure. However His love for me was the reason he held me, not his contemptuousness.Ultimately, tonight. When he lightly stroked my lips, The moment he touched my cheek, it felt like an object of his affection.The walls I had constructed over the years crashed into each other.It's not like I can shake my skin. I can still perceive the whimp
Sienna's POV Once my room door shut, I leaned on it. My breath was still not smooth, my heart racing so quick it seemed like it would never end. Liam's kiss stayed warm, gentle, yet leaving a shake that made my whole body softly tremble.I shut my eyes, trying to calm myself but each time I thought of the way he took me in that hug, I got more and more uneasy. It seemed like a thing that had gone from me for so long had at last come back. A thing I once thought I would not feel from Liam warmth.My hands were still shaking when I touched my lips with my fingers, like to check that what just happened was real. That it wasn’t only my mind going too far, or the calm night, or Liam's soft look making me lose control. No it really happened.I can recall it all so clearly. The way he spoke my name in a soft whisper. The gaze in his eyes that went deep into my mind. And then, before I could even think the space between us disappeared.That
Sienna's POV While Liam remained still, I turned and whispered "I think, maybe it's time to start over." Instead of answering, he looked up and gave me the impression that it was warming my heart. The verdict follows. Even without words, he understood at that moment.Noah started to feel drowsy just moments later. He leaned into the sofa, his red robot fleeing from his lap. I gazed at him and smirked.His first day at school seems to have left him feeling completely drained.Liam inspected his watch. "It's almost nine. Carry him to his room with me.”I nodded. He stood up, leaned back and lifted Noah with great strength. The little boy wrapped his arms around Liam's neck without waking him up.?... As they made their way towards Noah's room, I observed Liam carefully place his arms in his bed, adjust the blanket, and kiss him on the forehead before departing.Liam sat in silence, shutting the door and keeping it quiet. As he came towards me, h
Sienna's POV As Liam looked down, I observed his face with a tightening of his jaw and he had stray hair. He was a softly glowing young man who had been exposed to warm light from the lamp above the table. I hadn't had the chance to really see him like this before. He was unlike him, but still had a certain demeanor. He remained the same stubborn man I knew until now, but with a gentle and quiet expression.While using his fork, Noah began to shape spaghetti into small letters on his plate.He exclaimed, "Mommy, this letter is the N!" "Don't try to mess around with your food, okay?" I replied. "Thanks, that's great." He sped away and said, "Just briefly," staring at me with his big pleading eyes.Liam chuckled softly beside him.“This time, we can pardon him,” he said in a lowly voice. He added, "The chef needs some entertainment after his hard work in the kitchen." I gave him a sharp look but couldn't resist chuckling. "You're ruining
Sienna's POV The main door opened slowly, then came the noise of steps I knew well.Noah quickly turned from his seat and yelled in joy,“Daddy!” before leaping down and rushing to say hi to him.I grinned from the kitchen, still holding a dish I had just cleaned. A bit later, Liam showed up at the entrance of the dining room. His face seemed worn, but his eyes brightened right away when he saw what was there, our jumbled dining table, the smell of tomato sauce in the air and Noah hanging on to his legs.“Well, it seems like I got here at the right time,” he said, glancing down at Noah. “What have you both been doing here?”Noah hit his chest happily. “We made pasta! Mom cooked and I helped mix the sauce!”Liam lifted a brow, staring at me with a small grin. “Really? Then can daddy come for dinner?”I stared at him for a bit, faking to ponder. “Hmm... maybe. But just if you clean your hands first.”He laugh
