Mag-log inLiam's POV
“Because I want to learn.”I smiled faintly.“To learn how to be a better husband.”Sienna fell silent. A few seconds later, she took my hand, which was resting near the gear shift, and I looked down at our hands.“You don’t have to be perfect.”I turned to her.“All I need is Liam.” I could not say anything. I simply tightened my grip around her hand.If only she knew how much guilt I had been hiding all this time. If only she knew what had hSienna's POV I turned toward him. "Why?"“There are many places that can provide food and shelter. But here, the children truly seem to feel cared for.”I smiled faintly. “That’s what I want.”I looked at the children.“They don’t only need a place to sleep. They also need someone who makes them feel valued.”The doctor smiled. “I think they’re lucky to have you.”I shook my head. “I’m the lucky one to have them.”Not long afterward, one of the children ran toward me. “Mommy!”I immediately crouched down.“What is it?”“Is everything finished?”I nodded. “Almost.”“When it’s finished, can we eat?”I laughed. “Of course.”“I’m hungry.”“Then wait a little longer.”I gently stroked his hair. “We’ll eat together later.”He nodded before running away. I stood up again and looked at the clock on the wall.Time passed so quickly. I looked around the room, which was beginning to grow quieter.The doc
Sienna's POV Since early morning, several doctors and nurses from the hospital had already arrived, bringing medical equipment for the examinations. This was the scheduled routine health check for the children at the foundation, so I stood near the registration table, making sure every child's name had been recorded.“Children, the doctors are going to examine you today, okay?”Several of the children immediately looked curious. One of them tilted his head before asking a question.“What are the doctors going to check, Miss?”I smiled at them. “Different things, such as your height, weight, eyes, ears, and overall health.”“Are we getting injections too?”The question immediately made several children glance at one another. I let out a soft laugh before answering them.“Some of you might need an injection.”Several faces instantly became tense. I raised both hands to reassure them.“But don’t be afraid. The doctors are kind.”The examinat
Liam's POV “Because I want to learn.”I smiled faintly.“To learn how to be a better husband.”Sienna fell silent. A few seconds later, she took my hand, which was resting near the gear shift, and I looked down at our hands.“You don’t have to be perfect.”I turned to her.“All I need is Liam.” I could not say anything. I simply tightened my grip around her hand.If only she knew how much guilt I had been hiding all this time. If only she knew what had happened that night.I immediately pushed the thought away. I did not want to ruin this morning.I wanted to keep a smile on her face. At least for today.“Okay.”Sienna looked at me.“Okay, what?”“I’ll keep being Liam.”She let out a soft laugh.“Good.”I smiled at her. By the time we arrived at Noah Light Foundation, the children immediately greeted Sienna with excitement.I smiled as I watched her. Whenever she was surrounded by children, Sienna’s expre
Liam's POV That morning, I woke up earlier than usual. I had even deliberately set my alarm before the sun had fully risen. After making sure Sienna was still asleep, I went downstairs to the kitchen and started preparing breakfast.I did not know when the last time was that I had done something like this. Maybe it had been far too long.I arranged eggs, toast, fruit, and a warm cup of tea on the table. It was simple, but I hoped it would be enough to make her morning a little more pleasant.A few moments later, I heard the sound of footsteps. I turned around and saw Sienna standing in the doorway with her hair still slightly messy.Her eyes immediately widened when she saw the dining table. “You made all of this?”I smiled at her. “Good morning.”She walked closer. “Why are you already awake?”“I just felt like waking up early.”Sienna looked at the food on the table. “You didn’t have to go through all this trouble.”I pulled out her chair
Sienna's POV "I don't like that feeling."He raised his face and stared into my eyes. There was fear in his gaze that I had not seen so many times."I don't want to lose you."I pressed my bottom lip between my teeth. There was sincerity in his eyes, and it slowly tore down all walls I had built to protect my heart."I don't want to lose you too."Liam smiled gently. There was warmth in his gaze that tightened my chest."Then we'll fix everything."I nodded. The idea that I can fix our relationships seemed realistic to me."Together.""Together."He got up and went to another side of the bed. I observed how he turned off the central light, leaving only the little lamp at the bedside.It immediately became darker in the room. Soft shadows appeared in it.Liam lay down next to me. For several minutes, none of us said anything.I could hear his breathing next to me. This familiar sound brought back the memories that were almost
Sienna's POV I stepped out of the washroom wearing a towel like a kimono wrapped around my body. My hair was still a bit wet, and the nice smell of the scrub I used before stayed softly on my skin.I walked to the bedroom but my feet suddenly froze when I saw something on the bed. The night dress there was pretty neat.I frowned as I looked at it. It was the nightdress I used to put on a lot, one I had not seen in a real long time.I looked at it for a bit until Liam's voice brought me back. "You still look pretty when you wear that"I looked at him. Liam stood close by, all changed and seeming ready to have a shower.I pointed at the nightgown on the bed. "This?"Liam nodded. "Yes."I stayed quiet for a bit. "I didn't put it on in a long while""I know," Liam said with a little grin. "I just thought maybe you can wear it tonight."My eyes went back to t

Sienna’s POV Noah raised his hand again, as if he were already in class. “Sir, can I make a big dinosaur drawing and put it up on the classroom wall?”Mr. Johan laughed, then nodded firmly. “Of course you can. In fact, we love it when children are brave enough to show their work.”No
Sienna's POV The streetlights were still glowing dimly when Liam’s car stopped in front of the house. I glanced into the back seat, Noah had already fallen asleep, his face peaceful, his breathing steady, his small lips slightly parted. I smiled faintly, a wave of relief and tenderness washi
Sienna’s POV When the coffee arrived, I pulled my laptop from my bag and turned it on. The screen opened again to the file I'd been staring at the night before without writing a word. I stared at the lit laptop screen in front of me. The blank lines of the document felt like a mirr
