Sarah POV

I exhaled in relief, appreciating his urgency. Even with our complicated past, he never hesitated when it came to our child.

Grabbing my hospital bag—packed weeks ago in preparation for this very moment—I carefully made my way to the front door, pausing as another contraction ripped through me. I sucked in a sharp breath, gripping the doorframe for support. The contractions were coming fast now, growing stronger each time.

I managed to call a cab and waited on the front porch, my hands pressed to my belly as I focused on my breathing. Each passing second felt like an eternity. The anticipation and pain mingled, creating a haze of anxiety and excitement. When the car finally pulled up, I climbed in, gripping the seat as I braced for the next wave of pain.

The drive to the hospital was agonizing. Every bump in the road sent sharp jolts through my body, and I bit my lip, forcing myself to stay calm. The driver glanced at me nervously but remained silent, clearly not wanting to

    Sarah POVI grabbed my hospital bag, which had been packed and ready for weeks, and made my way to the front door. The contractions were coming more frequently now, each one stronger than the last. I called for a cab and waited anxiously on the front porch, trying to focus on my breathing. My hands trembled slightly as I clutched my belly, whispering reassurances to the tiny life inside me.The cab ride to the hospital felt like an eternity. Each bump in the road sent a jolt of pain through my body, and I clutched the seat, willing myself to stay calm. The driver kept glancing at me nervously in the rearview mirror, but I barely noticed. I squeezed my eyes shut, inhaling and exhaling in a desperate attempt to control the pain. Finally, we arrived at the hospital. A kind nurse rushed to my side, helping me out of the cab and into a wheelchair before quickly whisking me away to the maternity ward.As I was wheeled into the delivery room, I heard familiar voices. Alessandro arrived, out

    Sarah POVTears streamed down my face as the nurse placed the tiny, squirming bundle on my chest. I looked down at our child, overwhelmed by a flood of emotions: relief, joy, love, and an indescribable sense of completeness."He's perfect," I whispered, my voice choked with tears. Alessandro and Adrian leaned in, their faces reflecting the same awe and wonder I felt. For a brief moment, all the pain and turmoil of the past melted away, replaced by the pure, unadulterated joy of new life.The nurse took the baby to clean and weigh him, giving us a moment to catch our breath. Alessandro kissed my forehead, his eyes shining with pride and love. "You did amazing, Sarah. I'm so proud of you."Adrian, too, looked at me with a mixture of gratitude and respect. "Thank you for letting me be here. It means more than I can say."As I lay there, exhausted but elated, I realized that this was just the beginning of a new chapter. It wouldn't be easy, and there would be challenges ahead, but at that

    Sarah POVWith the nurse's departure, we were left alone to savor the quiet joy of our new family. Alessandro and Adrian took turns gently holding the baby, their faces lighting up with a mixture of awe and tenderness. The baby stirred slightly but remained asleep, his tiny form perfectly content."We're going to support you every step of the way. You have so many people who care about you," Alessandro said softly, brushing a hand over the baby's delicate head.Adrian nodded in agreement. "Whatever happens, we're in this together."As the day drew to a close, the sunlight streaming through the window cast a warm, golden glow over the room. We settled into a comfortable rhythm, taking turns holding the baby, sharing stories, and making plans. The challenges of the past felt distant, overshadowed by the joy and hope that our child had brought into our lives.The moments of laughter and quiet reflection were interspersed with practical discussions about the future. We knew there would be

    Adrian POVThe hospital room was bathed in the soft glow of the afternoon sun, its warm light filtering through the sheer white curtains that fluttered slightly from the air conditioning. The faint beeping of the monitors and the gentle hum of hospital machinery filled the space, blending with the delicate coos of the newborn nestled securely in Alessandro’s arms. The scene should have been one of peace, a quiet moment of warmth and belonging, but to me, it felt anything but.I stood near the window, my hands gripping the cold metal of the railing as I stared out at the sprawling city beyond. It felt distant, almost unreal, as if the life I had once known had been stripped away and replaced with something I could no longer touch. I had lost my place in this world, and yet, I was still here, watching as Alessandro cradled my son in his arms, murmuring words of affection to him, words that should have been mine to say.The sight was almost unbearable. Alessandro, with his quiet confiden

    Adrian POVSarah hesitated for a moment before nodding, her fingers tightening slightly around the fabric of the hospital blanket draped over her lap. There was something unreadable in her expression—uncertainty, perhaps, or maybe just the weight of the moment settling heavily between us. I held my breath as Alessandro, ever steady and composed, shifted the baby carefully in his arms and stepped forward.He met my gaze, his own filled with something I couldn’t quite place. Not resentment, not triumph—just a quiet understanding that, despite everything, we were both here for the same reason. Without a word, he handed me the baby, his movements careful, as though passing over something fragile, something sacred.As the small, warm weight settled into my arms, I inhaled sharply. My heart pounded, and for a brief, terrifying moment, I feared I might not be able to hold on, that my shaking hands would betray me. But then, tiny fingers curled instinctively around mine, a soft, barely-there

    Alessandro POVThe hospital room was a haven of new beginnings, bathed in the warm, golden light of the setting sun. The air was filled with the soft hum of monitors and the occasional distant murmur of voices from the hallway. Yet, within these four walls, the world felt small, intimate, as though nothing outside of this moment mattered.I held our newborn son, feeling the gentle rise and fall of his tiny chest, the warmth of his fragile body nestled against me. His delicate fingers twitched every now and then as if grasping at dreams too small for us to understand. The sheer weight of him, despite his size, pressed against my heart, filling me with a love so overwhelming it left me breathless. This little life, so new yet already so full of meaning, had changed everything.Sarah sat nearby, her arms resting on the hospital bed’s railing, her eyes never leaving us. A soft smile played on her lips, but beyond that, I could see the exhaustion in her posture, the quiet battle of emotion

    Alessandro POVThe baby stirred, his tiny fingers curling instinctively around Adrian’s thumb. It was such a small gesture, so insignificant to the rest of the world, but to Adrian, it was everything. His lips parted, a shaky exhale escaping as emotion welled up in his eyes. He held the baby close, his fingers brushing over the soft curve of his son’s cheek, reverence and disbelief written all over his face.“I’m sorry, Sarah,” Adrian whispered, his voice thick with regret. “For everything. I know I’ve let you down, and I don’t expect things to be the same. But I want to be here for him, for both of you, in whatever way I can.”Sarah inhaled sharply, her hand hovering just above the baby’s head before gently brushing against his fine hair. Her lips trembled, and she blinked back the moisture in her eyes before giving a small nod. “Thank you, Adrian. That means a lot. We’re going to need all the support we can get.”Her words resonated deep within me. This wasn’t just about past mistak

    Sarah POVThe morning light streamed gently through the hospital room window, casting a soft golden hue over the crisp white sheets and the muted tones of the walls. The air was thick with the faint scent of antiseptic, mingling with the fresh flowers that sat on the bedside table a thoughtful gift from Alessandro’s sister. The world outside bustled with life, but within these four walls, time felt as though it had slowed, allowing me to soak in this precious moment.I sat on the edge of the hospital bed, cradling our newborn son in my arms, his tiny body swaddled snugly in a soft blue blanket. His delicate fingers curled into little fists, his face serene, lips slightly parted as he slept. My heart swelled with an emotion so profound, so overwhelming, that I found myself holding my breath just to savor it a little longer. The exhaustion from labor still clung to me, a dull ache in my bones, but it was overshadowed by the sheer wonder of this little life I had brought into the world.

    Sarah's POVI don't know when it became normal Adrian being here, taking up the spaces Alessandro used to leave behind.Initially, it had been uncomfortable. Unwelcome, even.I reminded myself that I didn't need assistance, that I could manage everything, that allowing Adrian in would just make things complicated. But eventually, he wore me down.Not with pressure, not with guilt. With kindness.A new coffee mug sat on the counter as I walked into the kitchen at six in the morning, my eyes heavy and my hair messy from yet another night without sleep.When I forgot to change the diapers, he silently delivered a package.When Gabriel got irritable at 2 a.m., and I hadn't even noticed Adrian was still around, I found him slowly walking with my child in his arms, singing softly under his breath.He never made me owe him. Never asked for anything.It was… easy.And I resented the fact that I required easy at the moment.Tonight, after Gabriel had curled up into his cot, I went back downst

    Alessandro’s POVThe silence had been deafening.I’d thought to call her. To reach out. A thousand texts drafted and deleted, but I couldn’t bring myself to send them. What could I possibly say? It had been days since I walked out of the door, since I left Sarah standing in the flickering candlelight, her face ashen with confusion and heartbreak."I believe we should take a break."Those words were like a curse now. They haunted me in every waking moment. In every passing second, I replayed that night in my mind: Sarah, looking at me as if I’d just shattered the world we had built. My world.Our world.But I hadn’t been honest with her. Not about the reason. Not about what I was really facing.The night I left was the night Mira showed up at my door. Her presence had been a surprise, unexpected, but when she explained what had happened between us in the past, everything clicked. Her charges were nothing short of dynamite, threatening to disclose something that may destroy everything I

    Sarah’s POVThe days began to blur again, not in the same dull ache that followed Alessandro’s departure, but in the quiet, strange rhythm of something new, unfamiliar. Or perhaps something I’d tried to avoid naming.Adrian was around more often now. Not in a way that felt suffocating, not overt or insistent. Just there. Like a lamp quietly turned on in the corner of a dim room, steady, unremarkable at first, but always present, always warming some small patch of your shadow.He had started picking up on our routines, filling in the silences Alessandro had left behind. Gabriel laughed more when he was around. That squealing, hiccup-laced giggle spilt from his tiny chest when Adrian made ridiculous faces or sang off-key versions of nursery rhymes.I watched them one afternoon. Adrian gently bounced him on one knee while Gabriel reached for his nose with sticky hands.“You’re a menace,” Adrian chuckled, catching his hands midair and kissing his forehead. “Tiny, adorable menace.”I smile

    Adrian’s POVIt was all starting to fall into place.I could see it every hesitant smile Sarah offered, every time her shoulders relaxed just a little when I walked into the room. The way Gabriel cooed when he saw me, his tiny arms stretching out like he knew exactly where he wanted to be. He was still calling Alessandro “Da-da,” but even that was fading. Soon, that name would mean nothing to him. Soon, he’d forget the man who walked away.And then, it would be me. Just me.I hadn’t needed to lift a finger to break them apart. Alessandro did that all on his own. All I had to do was wait watch him get sloppy, arrogant, careless. And Mira? She was the perfect tool. A beautiful, broken mess with just enough resentment left in her to be useful.He thought he could run with her, escape the mess, and start fresh.But I had plans of my own.Tonight, I was meeting Mira again. Same hotel, same room. She liked the sense of secrecy—liked the way I fed her ego, told her she was “powerful,” “dange

    Sarah's POVThree days had already passed since Alessandro requested space, and every hour seemed like an eternity.I made an effort to keep myself occupied. I plunged myself in work as the sole thing keeping me grounded in reality—emails, meetings, tasks that I used to outsource once occupied my focus. None of them filled the void in my chest. None of them filled the hollowness in my chest.Because when nighttime came, when the world outside hushed and vanished, when the babe finally slept in his crib, Alessandro's words rang louder than anything else:"I believe that we should take a pause."He hadn't given an explanation. He didn't have to, not after what I'd witnessed that night—him, dashing out of the building, with Mira. No explanation, no defense, just silence and that bomb he'd dropped in three in the morning, as I sat waiting on the couch for the candles to burn down.I'd not heard from him since.He hadn't even inquired after Gabriel.And that… that's the bit that used to ke

    Sarah’s POVI didn’t sleep.Not even close.I sat curled up on the couch for hours, the meal Marta had purchased crumpled beside me like an abandoned dream.Every sound outside—the wind striking the windows, a distant siren, the quiet buzz of passing cars—made my heart race with eagerness.I kept thinking I’d imagined it. Mira. The way he left. The way my name never seemed to matter in that moment.I had tried not to check the time.But by 2:57 a.m., it was impossible not to notice the cold space beside me on the couch.I hadn’t moved from that spot. Didn’t bother to change. Then I heard the sound.The front door creaked open with the quiet care of someone attempting not to be heard. Footsteps followed, slow and deliberate, as if he were entering a chamber full of ghosts.I stood up before I even thought about it.And there he was.Alessandro.He looked exhausted eyes hollow, jaw tight, the jacket he’d rushed out in now draped over one shoulder. The top two buttons of his shirt were

    Sarah’s POV I sat in the office long after Chloe had gone, staring at the open closet, the dress I’d pulled out earlier still hanging limply from the hook.I hated that she got to me. I hated that her words had slithered into my thoughts, muddying everything Alessandro and I had built.But I hated even more how uncertain I felt. How easily the doubt crept in, no matter how hard I tried to shove it away.Still, Alessandro’s message echoed louder than Chloe’s venom.“No expectations. Just you, me, and a little honesty.”Honesty. That was what I wanted more than anything else. If there was truth left between us, I wanted to see it in his eyes, not through whispered accusations or cryptic proofs.I got up to return home, I quickly packed up my things and called the driver. The driver pulled up outside our building just as the streetlights began to glow amber in the dusk. My fingers fidgeted in my lap. I imagined him lighting the candles, smoothing his hair, maybe even practising what he

    Sarah POVI gazed at my reflection in the mirror, wrapped in my robe, with Alessandro's text shining like a ray of hope in my hand."I understand we've had a rough patch. But if you can spare one night, I'd like to attempt to fix things.No expectations. Just you, me, and a little honesty. I’ll be waiting.”My heart ached. The sincerity in those words hit something raw inside me. I missed him, missed us. Missed the warmth of our mornings, the soft laughter that once filled our home. But pain changes things. Doubt makes strangers of the people you love most.Just then, there was a knock.“Come in,” I called, not looking up.I recognised the perfume before the door fully opened. Chanel No. 5. Chloe's signature. Of course.She stepped inside like a queen visiting a kingdom she meant to burn down.Silk robe fastened with precision, wine glass clutched like a villain in a sad drama. She always loved to put on a show."Going out tonight?" she inquired, her eyes sparkling as they darted to th

    Alessandro’s POVIt had been ten days since we returned from the farmhouse. Ten days since everything unraveled.I sensed Sarah drifting further away from me, bit by bit, like sand slipping through an hourglass.She hadn’t raised her voice. She hadn’t lashed out. But her silence said more than any screaming match could. The way she avoided eye contact. The way her footsteps always trailed toward the guest room instead of ours. The way she smiled politely, but not warmly, when I handed her coffee in the mornings.I’d made a mistake. A big one.Not because of Mira, not entirely. That chapter of my life had been over years ago. And Mira’s accusations had never made sense to begin with. But I should’ve told Sarah everything the moment we got serious. I should’ve trusted her with my truth before someone like Adrian could twist it.God, Adrian.Even now, the thought of his smug face as he dropped that bomb still made my jaw clench. He’d timed it perfectly right when we were finding peace. W
