Sienna's POV

Because if I were honest, I knew I could never truly shut Liam out completely. He was the wound that had never quite healed. And part of me still clung to the memories of what we once had.

My gaze returned to the invitation lying on the table.

Next week. There was still time.

Maybe I would go. Maybe I wouldn’t.

But at least now I knew Noah wanted me there. And that was enough to make me wonder if I was ready to open the door I had kept locked for so long.

I picked up the invitation again, tracing the stiff edge of the paper with my fingertips. The print was simple, no elaborate flourishes—just the date, the place, the names of two people about to bind their lives on an important day. But for me, this piece of paper carried more weight than any ordinary invitation. It was a door. A door I could leave shut, or open just a crack, letting the past seep back in.

Next week. It felt close, yet far enough to leave me restless each passing day unti

    Sienna's POV Our conversation with Liliana lasted almost two hours before we parted ways in front of the café. Her smile was typical of hers, and I gave her a gentle wave.Prior to getting into her car, she urged people not to forget about their vacation."I chuckled and nodded in agreement. Let's go over it." As she drove off, I stood on the sidewalk for a moment. I was under the gentle peat-and-white breeze from the afternoon, with lingering coffee aromas from downstairs and the scent of fresh flowers from outside. I wasn't ready to go home yet. I experienced a warm yet nervous sensation when I remembered Liam's words about his mother wanting to meet me that morning. This was a heartfelt sentiment.As I walked, I felt the gentle sun set behind me and gently patted my face on the sidewalk. Despite the busy traffic across the street, there were only a few sounds of footsteps, engine noises, and laughter from dozens of students as they exited one of the bookstor

    Sienna's POV After a brief glance, Liam replied with an affirmative, "Alright. Please reach out to me after you've finished.”The door was closed with a gentle nod as I nodded in anticipation. While he drove away, I watched his car pass by in front of the café and stared at my reflection through the glass window. There was a face that seemed to be more composed and alive in the reflection.My heart didn't feel cold, even though the air in the middle of the afternoon still had a soft chill. I felt a sense of lighterness after talking about everything in the car, including the meeting tonight. Maybe I had finally gotten over the feeling of being disconnected from everything.I turned around and saw a small sign that said Bloom & Brew Café. The place wasn't very big, but it always had a good vibe. With the glass open, I could hear some people chatting over coffee, and each time it opened, the door held out with the sweet scent of cinnamon and caramel.The handle of

    Sienna's POV There was no sound as the car stopped moving. The radio track transformed into a soothing piano piece. My fingers were intertwined on my lap, and I observed the simple progress we had made, from the stillness of our surroundings to the peaceful conversations we now have.Liam looked at the clock on the dashboard and inquired if he wanted to drive him there.Looking at Liam, I was slightly hesitant. "It's fine, let's take a cab. The office is probably within your reach.”"I'm still here," he said softly, his voice firm but gentle. "My sole desire is for you to safely make your way." I didn't argue. He spoke with a confidence that made me feel. Perhaps I was free to accept that feeling without any guilt.Liam nodded slightly. He had a relaxed feeling in his hands when he was driving, but the tightness of his jaw indicated that sat in thought.Within seconds, he glanced to the side and whispered:“Sienna, If my mother wanted to see you ton

    Sienna's POV The auto went slow between lines of woods dropping their leaves. I looked out the glass, seeing Noah by the school door, waving his small hand at us before rushing in with his pals. His face was so bright, pure, full of joy as usual and seeing him like that I couldn’t help but feel some warmth in my chest.I stayed looking until his tiny shape vanished behind the door then let out a quiet breath and leaned back on the chair. Liam got into his seat, shutting the car door softly before starting the engine.“He seems quite glad these days,” I said with a tiny grin.Liam looked at me quickly, a small grin on his face. “Because you got him yesterday. He spoke about it all night long”I chuckled soft, but something in my chest shook a blend of happiness and worry. This little feeling of being near still felt fresh to me, like something that once looked hard had now turned true.“He even sketched you in his book” Liam went on

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.
