LOGINCassandraBoth of them looked very happy when they saw me. I felt happy too and immediately stood up.Miles hugged me, still carrying his backpack.“Mom!”“You just finished school?”He smiled and nodded. He must have done many things that made him happy at school. Since it had been quite a while since he last went, he was probably telling stories about what he did with me and Sebastian.I remembered the souvenirs he brought for his friends. He had chosen all of them carefully. Miles had a gentle heart—and that made me both happy and worried.Sebastian said he could handle it. As a man—the same gender as Miles, I believed he could manage it.Neither of us wanted our son to be taken advantage of in the future. Just his status alone already made people aware of his influence.It might sound arrogant, but it’s the truth.Minutes later, we were already sitting on the sofa. I let Miles lie on my lap. As I played with his hair and watched him, his behavior reminded me of Sebastian.I smiled
Cassandra“Have you found a suitable donor?”I stood beside him and clearly heard what he said. His expression brightened, and that made my heart feel lighter too.“Yes. You need to handle that matter. I’ll talk to the doctor right away.”By accident, our hands brushed, and at that moment he immediately held mine tightly. I knew he was very emotional right now.I stayed silently by his side, listening and ready if he needed anything. To me, Sebastian is very important, and I have to be there for him.The call ended, and Sebastian’s eyes sparkled as he looked at me.“Sandra, Grandpa has found a suitable heart donor.”I smiled widely, feeling relief after hearing it again. This was truly good news.Sebastian released my hand and held my shoulders as he looked at me directly.“Wait here. I’ll talk to the doctor.”With that, he quickly walked away to meet the doctor. I understood very well that this needed to be handled and prepared as soon as possible.Miles and I sat down, with Mother b
POV 3Miles sat on his bed, his expression gloomy—unlike usual. The memory of his grandpa was still very clear in his mind.Whenever someone close to him ended up in the hospital, his heart would ache and feel uneasy. All this time, he had been a good child—he never wanted to trouble others. Yet somehow, the people around him kept getting sick.Feeling that way, Miles stared out the window with an empty gaze. He was afraid that something worse might happen to his grandpa, even though the surgery had already been done.After a few minutes like that, Miles finally moved. He got down from his bed and walked slowly. When he reached downstairs, he saw his dad and mom sitting together.“Young sir, you’re awake.”Genna’s friendly greeting drew his attention.He looked at Genna, who was smiling at him, and hugged her. He knew that he had missed her.“Genna, I missed you,” he said softly.The two of them were very close. Whenever his mom wasn’t by his side, Genna would be the one accompanying
CassandraI sat there uncomfortably. The atmosphere in this place was still gloomy. For three hours, Grandpa had been in the operating room.Grandpa was undergoing another stent placement. I heard it was because there was another blockage, and it had made his condition weaker.Sebastian and his family were looking for a heart donor, but that was difficult. Still, not a single one of them would give up on finding a donor for Grandpa.I saw Iker finally arrive. He immediately approached.“Ma’am.”I glanced at Miles beside me. “Iker, take him to the room that’s been prepared.”Iker understood and immediately carried Miles to the room we had rented in the hospital. Sebastian had arranged it earlier, because he knew Miles was very tired, yet didn’t want to miss anything about his grandpa.We were thinking about the worst-case scenario. If this time Grandpa couldn’t make it, then there should be no regrets.Even though we had already talked about it, it still made the atmosphere uneasy. Sil
CassandraThat morning, we woke up feeling very happy.Miles woke up with a big smile on his face, and he immediately hugged both me and Sebastian.“Morning, Mom, Dad!”He woke up earlier than us, causing both of us to wake as well, and we responded with smiles.I knew this place held many memories for him. And after greeting me good morning, he quickly left the room.Sebastian and I let out a breath as we shifted and looked at each other.“Ah, he’s really excited.”Sebastian nodded and pulled me closer into his embrace.I didn’t know how much time passed, but we took things slowly. And when we finally appeared in the dining room, I saw that Miles had already bathed and was neatly dressed.I knew Ellen had taken care of him, and that made me feel at ease.After we had breakfast, we planned to leave this place. We might go for a walk somewhere else.Miles hugged Paul and Ellen very tightly. “Grandpa, Grandma, don’t forget to visit me.”Miles looked sad. I understood that the short time
CassandraI had a moment filled with peace. Dinner ended on a very happy note, even though our gathering hadn’t truly come to an end.They were still in the living room, chatting about many things or playing small games. Meanwhile, I stepped outside, looking for some fresh air as I let out a long breath.The moments I had spent with them kept replaying in my mind, and it made me smile.As I looked up at the sky, I felt a sense of emotion welling up inside me. It turned out that I had fought so hard and gone through so much. There were times when I wanted to give up, yet somehow I managed to get through it all.I kept hoping that I would continue to grow stronger and be filled with happiness. But I also knew that both Sebastian and I had quite a number of enemies in this world.Without realizing it, I let out another breath. “Ah… am I overthinking?”“What exactly are you thinking about, Sandra?”Someone approached and stood beside me. Her face was calm, and her red hair fluttered in th
CassandraDylan came home very late that day, and to my surprise, the man prepared breakfast for all of us. When I saw what he had done, I couldn’t help but praise him.“Wow, this is all amazing.”I found that he had cooked many kinds of food that happened to be my favorites. Ellen and Paul, who we
CassandraI stared at him, knowing what he wanted. My whole body trembled at what he said.As I looked at Miles beside me, it frightened me. I wanted him to leave; I wanted Miles to not be involved at all.“Sandra, I’ve realized my mistake. I was really stupid back then…”My ears heard all the nons
CassandraNonsense was written all over his expression. What I had just said to him was the truth, and he must also understand business etiquette, that you don’t just show up without an appointment.His confused look didn’t last long, because the moment he saw Daniel, his anger became visible again
SebastianI looked at her. She should have known how impatient I was for this morning to come.The dress I gave her suited her perfectly, and her loose hair made her look so beautiful. I should have realized long ago just how beautiful she really is.Looking back, I truly had been deceiving myself.
