Daniel’s eyes widened the moment he recognized Elias.

“You?” he spat, the word sharp like a slap. “What the hell are you doing here?”

Elias stood still. Calm. Unshaken. His eyes didn’t move from Daniel’s, not even a blink.

Daniel turned sharply toward Maya, his voice already rising. “Is this why you left? Were you seeing him behind my back? Is that what this is?!”

Maya flinched. Her stomach twisted at the accusation. “What are you talking about?”

Daniel’s voice turned rough, filled with disbelief and rage. “Don’t play dumb, Maya. You disappear without warning. Now I find you here… alone with him? Of all people? Do you think I’m stupid? Was this going on the whole time? Was the divorce just a cover for your affair?”

“Stop it,” she said, voice low but shaking. “That’s not what happened.”

But Daniel’s anger had taken over. He took a step closer, ignoring the tension in the room. “I gave you everything. And this is how you repay me? You leave me. You humiliate me. And now I see you

    The sewing machine whirred softly in the corner of the boutique. Maya stood by the fitting table, carefully trimming the edge of a sleeve she had just finished stitching. Fabric rolls lined the shelves, threads of every color hung neatly in place, and the warm scent of fresh coffee filled the air from the cup sitting nearby.Her hands moved with practiced ease, but her mind wandered. After everything that had happened—the banquet, the stares, the whispers—she still found peace in this space. It was her sanctuary, a place where every stitch calmed her heart and every design reminded her that she had something to offer the world.Business had slowly picked up since the party. A few wealthy guests had quietly reached out, wanting dresses like the one Elias’s grandmother had worn. Maya didn’t expect it, but it made her smile. She hadn’t asked for recognition, but it felt good to be noticed for her talent—for her hard work.She was finishing a sketch when the bell above the boutique door j

  • Longing For My Ex-Wife   Whispers of the Past

    The day after the banquet was quiet, but Maya’s heart was still full. She stood inside her boutique, carefully folding fabrics and adjusting a dress on one of the mannequins. Her thoughts kept drifting back to the night before—how Elias had stood up for her, how his grandmother had been kind, and how the other guests had looked at her with respect instead of pity.The moment she had walked into the banquet hall, dressed in the gown Elias had given her, she felt like someone else. Strong. Confident. Beautiful. For a long time, she had hidden behind pain and heartbreak, but last night reminded her that she was more than her past. She was rebuilding herself, one step at a time.The bell over the boutique door jingled.“Hello?” a woman’s voice called softly.Maya turned around with a polite smile. “Good morning. How can I help you?”Two elegantly dressed women stepped inside. One of them carried a clutch bag that looked like it cost more than Maya’s old car. The other was older, wearing p

    Soft music filled the air, and laughter floated from one corner of the banquet hall to another. Everything looked perfect—the shining lights, the polished floors, the tables filled with fine food and flowers. Maya stood near the side of the ballroom, trying to catch her breath after a dance with Elias. Her cheeks were slightly flushed, her lips curved into a shy smile. She looked beautiful, calm, and confident. Guests had been complimenting her all evening. Many admired the gown she wore—elegant, graceful, unlike anything they had seen before. But even more attention was drawn to the gown Elias’s grandmother wore. The rich color, the smooth fit, and the intricate embroidery had people talking nonstop. More than one woman asked the elderly lady where she got such a stunning dress. Each time, the grandmother smiled proudly and said, “A young designer made it for me. Her name is Maya.” Across the room, Lena stood with a drink in her hand. She was watching Maya closely. Her eyes followed

    Maya had spent days carefully finishing the dress for Elias’s grandmother. Every stitch, every fold, and every detail had been done with love and care. When the final fitting was done, Elias’s grandmother stood before the mirror, wearing the custom-made gown. Her eyes sparkled as she turned to look at Maya. “This is perfect,” she said warmly. “It’s been a long time since I felt this beautiful in a dress.” Maya smiled softly. “I’m happy you like it.” “I don’t just like it,” the older woman replied. “I’m truly impressed. You have a gift, Maya.” Elias stood nearby, watching the moment. His grandmother turned to him and said, “Elias, you must bring her to my birthday banquet. I want everyone to see who made this dress.” Elias looked at Maya with a small smile. “Would you come?” Maya hesitated, unsure at first, but then she nodded. “Yes. I’d be honored.” Later that evening, long after Maya had closed up her boutique and returned to her small apartment, there was a quiet knock on he

    The drive back from Nurse Clara’s apartment was quiet. Maya sat in the front seat, staring out of the window, but she wasn’t really seeing the road or the passing trees. Her mind was filled with everything the nurse had told them.A star-shaped birthmark. A switch during the night shift. A man who had paid Clara to carry out his orders.Maya pressed her hand to her chest. The ache in her heart was too deep for words.“Are you okay?” Elias asked gently as he drove.Maya shook her head slowly. “No… but I’m trying to be.”Elias didn’t push her to speak. He kept his eyes on the road, giving her the silence she needed.When they reached her apartment, Elias parked outside and turned off the engine. The soft hum of the car stopped, and the silence between them grew heavy.“Do you want me to stay for a while?” he asked.Maya looked at him. His eyes were calm but full of concern.“Yes,” she whispered. “I don’t want to be alone.”They entered the apartment together. Maya sat on the couch while

    Elias parked the car near a quiet apartment complex on the edge of the city. He glanced at Maya, who sat quietly beside him, her hands clenched tightly in her lap. Her eyes were fixed on the window, but her mind was far away, racing through a thousand thoughts and fears.“We’re here,” Elias said gently.Maya turned to look at him. “Are you sure it’s her?”He nodded. “Yes. I had someone track her. She worked at the hospital the year your child was born. After she suddenly resigned, she vanished for years. But we finally found her.”Maya’s voice was barely above a whisper. “And you’re sure she was involved?”“She moved to another city under a different name,” Elias said. “She bought a house with cash and started a new life. That kind of money doesn’t come from regular hospital work.”Maya’s heart pounded in her chest. She was scared, but she needed answers. She had lived with doubt and pain for too long.Elias got out of the car and walked around to open the door for her. She stepped ou
