LOGINSienna's POVThe sea breeze was really calm that day. I had been feeling weird since morning so I kept looking at the clock on Liliana's wall. Then I would look at the path to the yard."He should be here any minute now."Liliana smiled at me because I was walking back and forth in the house. She could see that I was getting impatient."I know.""I still cannot wait."I had just finished talking when I heard a car coming from away. My heart started beating and I ran outside.The black car that I knew well stopped in front of the gate. The door. Liam got out with a small bag.Our eyes. We just looked at each other for a few seconds.Then I ran to him without thinking. My heart knew where it wanted to be."Liam."He opened his arms and I threw myself into them. I held him tight.It felt like he would disappear if I let go. Liam p
Sienna’s POV "Yes." He nodded proudly. His eyes lit up like a kid who just got a toy. "I'm in grade." A big smile spread across my face when he said that. He was so proud of himself. It was really cute. "Whats your favorite subject in school?" "Drawing." He did not hesitate at all. I could tell he was excited. "I love drawing the ocean." His eyes sparkled when he talked about drawing. For a moment I forgot about his pain. "I like drawing dolphins." He smiled shyly. I could not help but laugh. "That's amazing." "When your knee gets better I would love to see your drawings." I really meant it. The thought of seeing his artwork made me happy. Reno's face lit up. He looked so
Sienna's POV The sky was nice and clear that day. Warm sunlight spread over the beach, making the white sand shine under my feet.After I helped Liliana clean up the house, I chose to go for a walk by the beach. William was mending a fence in the yard while Liliana gave water to the plants."I'm going to the beach for a while."Liliana grinned nicely. Her eyes watched me as I grabbed my hat."Okay. Don't forget to wear your hat."I gave a small nod before walking to the soft light sand. The nice sea wind touched my face with each step.Not far from the beach a group of kids was playing with a ball. Their happy giggles mixed well with the calm beat of the waves."Auntie Sienna!"One of the kids waved happily. His big grin made me grin right away."Come play with us!"I gave a quiet laugh. Their joy was hard to ignore."Sure."
Sienna's POV I stared at her for a few long moments. Feeling softly grew in my heartBefore I knew it, I held my arms close to her. The hug felt normal."Thanks," I said softly. My voice shook with emotion.She hugged me back and softly patted my back. The nice touch made the weight in my heart feel less."When your book is done, I wanna be the first one to read it." Hope shined in her eyes.A gentle giggle came from me. The idea didn't feel like a dream now."Hmm, deal." I grinned with the fresh tears still there."Liam can be number two," that thought seemed to feel right.Liliana acted like she was thinking hard. Her fun face made me grin even more."What about Will?" she said with a playful smile."My answer is easy." I laughed quietly."Will can be the third." My reply quickly made us both giggle.Our giggl
Sienna's POVThe kitchen was filled with the smell of butter since morning. The sunlight coming through the window made the wooden table look nice. The table was covered with flour, eggs, sugar and a big bowl of cake batter that Liliana and I were making together.I was wearing Liliana's apron with flowers on it. She was standing next to me slowly mixing the batter with a spoon."Be careful not to mix it fast." I started laughing. "I forgot that baking a cake is actually harder than writing a story."Liliana laughed too. "Of course it is. If your story is not good you can just erase it. If the cake batter is not good we have to eat it."Liliana and I were laughing together. The kitchen was feeling warm and happy. It had been a while since I laughed like that in the morning.I put vanilla in the bowl and slowly mixed the batter. My hands were still a little clumsy. I felt better than before.
Liam's POVI took a big breath. The air felt thick in my chest.I let out a deep breath as I tried to calm down. No answer could ever take the place of my boy.My heart thumped stronger with each tick of the clock. The judge at last started to read the decision."After looking at all the proof shown in this trial, this court finds a defendant Emily guilty beyond a reasonable doubt."Emily jumped up. Her voice rang out in the courtroom."No."The man in charge kept going without noticing her break. His look did not change at allThe court now gives the person a twenty year term in jail.The man hit the hammer. The loud noise bounced all around the room.Emily gave a loud scream. All calmness left her face."No.""I'm innocent.""You're all working together.""I'm the victim."Two guards
