The hospital room was quiet, with only the soft beeping of the monitor and the gentle hum of machines in the background. Elias lay back against the pillows, his shoulder still wrapped in clean bandages. His breathing was steady now, and the color had returned to his face.

Maya sat beside him, watching him rest. She had been there all night, refusing to leave. A tray of untouched food sat on the table. She hadn’t eaten much either. Her mind was still full of everything that had happened.

After a long silence, Elias slowly opened his eyes. He looked over at her and gave a faint smile. “You’re still here.”

“Of course,” Maya said softly, brushing her fingers through her hair. “I told you—I’m not going anywhere.”

Elias moved slightly in bed and winced, but his eyes remained alert. “How are you holding up?” he asked.

“I’m… okay,” Maya replied. “A little tired. A little scared. But I’m trying to stay strong.”

He gave a small nod. “You always do.”

  • Longing For My Ex-Wife   The Truth Revealed

    Colton stood by the window of his apartment, holding a folder in his hand. His heart was pounding. After weeks of quiet investigation, private visits, and waiting, he finally had the truth.The DNA results were clear.Maya was his sister.His long-lost baby sister.He stared at the papers, almost unable to believe it. All this time, she had been so close, living her life with no idea of who she really was. Colton felt a wave of emotion wash over him—relief, happiness, and something deeper. A piece of his heart that had been missing for years had finally been found.Without waiting another moment, he grabbed his phone and car keys and headed straight to the Denovan estate.⸻When he arrived, the Denovan couple was sitting in the living room. They looked up as he walked in, and something in his face made them sit up straighter.“You found something,” Mr. Denovan said.Colton gave a small nod and walked toward them. He placed the folder gently on the table in front of them. “It’s her,” h

    Colton sat in his car, his fingers drumming lightly on the steering wheel. His eyes were locked on the building across the street—the lab where he had just submitted a DNA sample for testing. The necklace, the story, and Maya’s background… everything pointed to one truth.But he needed confirmation.And to get that, he needed another sample. A real one.He didn’t want to scare Maya or make her suspicious, so he decided on a simple plan—get close to her. Talk to her casually. Earn her trust. And maybe, if the moment was right, take a single strand of hair—just enough for the test.He sent her a message.“Hey, feel like catching up tonight? There’s a nice little bar downtown. Just a chat. My treat.”To his surprise, Maya replied within minutes.“Sure. I could use a break.”⸻Later that evening, Maya stepped out of a taxi and walked into the small, cozy bar Colton had suggested. It wasn’t crowded—just a few people talking quietly over drinks. The lighting was soft, and a slow tune played

  • Longing For My Ex-Wife   Days to Remember

    The morning was quiet and soft. Maya stood by the window of her living room, holding a warm cup of tea. Elias was still asleep on the couch, one arm covering his face. He had insisted on staying the night, just in case she felt overwhelmed again after the letter from the orphanage. But Maya had felt comforted just by having him nearby.She smiled as she watched him sleep. There was something peaceful about him in that moment, something gentle. Her heart felt warm.When Elias finally stirred and sat up, rubbing his eyes, Maya greeted him with a quiet laugh. “Morning, sleepyhead.”Elias blinked a few times, then smiled back at her. “Morning. Did you sleep okay?”“I did,” she said softly. “Thanks for staying.”He stretched, then stood up. “You’re welcome. I wasn’t going to leave you alone after yesterday.”They ate a light breakfast together—toast, eggs, and fruit. Maya wasn’t sure what the day would bring, but it already felt special.After breakfast, Elias turned to her. “Hey, want to

    The day had been long, but now the evening was theirs.Maya walked beside Elias, feeling strangely relaxed. The sky was dimming, and the air was cool and gentle. They had just stepped out of her apartment, and she still wasn’t quite sure where he was taking her.“I still can’t believe you planned this,” she said, glancing up at him. “You’ve been acting suspicious all day.”Elias grinned. “I just wanted to do something nice for you. No surprise guests this time—just the two of us.”Maya raised a brow. “Promise?”“Promise,” he replied, placing a hand on his chest. “Scout’s honor.”They both laughed as they got into his car. The drive was calm, the streets quiet. Soft music played in the background, and Maya let herself enjoy the stillness. She didn’t ask where they were going. For once, she liked the mystery.After a few minutes, Elias pulled into a narrow side road and parked in front of a small garden café tucked behind a wooden gate. String lights hung between the trees, and the gent

    Maya stood by the window of her living room, holding the letter again in her hands. Her eyes scanned the words over and over, as if hoping they would change.“A young man came by recently, asking about you,” the letter had said. “He said his name was Colton. I thought you should know.”Her heart had been uneasy since she read it. She hadn’t told anyone—not even Elias. But deep inside, she knew she needed answers.The next morning, Maya called Colton.“Can you come over?” she asked, her voice calm but firm.There was a short pause before he replied. “Of course. I’ll be there soon.”—An hour later, Colton stood in her living room, looking serious. Anika was with the Denovans for the weekend, and the house felt quiet, almost too quiet.Maya didn’t waste time. She handed him the letter.“This came yesterday,” she said, watching his face.Colton took it and read it silently. Then, with a slow breath, he nodded.“I was going to tell you,” he said softly. “But I didn’t know how.”“Tell me w

  • Longing For My Ex-Wife   Hidden Questions

    The sky was cloudy as Colton drove through the quiet countryside. His thoughts were racing. The necklace Maya wore, the date of her birthday, the way she looked—everything pointed to one possibility. One he hadn’t dared believe until now.Could Maya really be his sister?He didn’t want to get his hopes up too soon, but the signs were too strong to ignore. That’s why he was driving toward the old orphanage Maya once mentioned—the place she said she had grown up in.After about two hours, he arrived. The building wasn’t large. It looked old but was still clean and welcoming. Children’s laughter echoed from the back garden. He parked the car and walked to the entrance.A woman in her late fifties opened the door. She had kind eyes and wore a simple cardigan. “Can I help you?”Colton gave her a polite smile. “I’m looking for some information. I was told this is where a girl named Maya grew up.”The woman nodded. “Yes, Maya. She was with us for many years. I’m the current headmistress—Ms.
