[THIRD-PERSON POV] "Why are you so jittery?"  Sam said when he saw Liam who was restless in his office and seemed to be walking while looking at his phone. “Come on man, she’s going to be back.  If she’s not then I’m going to get her for you.  I know where she lives in New Jersey- ”Her chest lifted as Liam held her collar tightly.  Sam raised both of his hands, surrendering.  "Easy." "You know where she lives?"  Liam uttered. “Yes, I have been looking out for her right?  Of course, I know where she lives.  I even know her favorite places.  If I don’t have Sybil I might have been in l

“What’s wrong?  Are you feeling okay? ” I felt Noah's hand caressing my back.  It help me feel better. "I need to go to the restroom."  I said softly before I looked for the closest I could wash. “What are you feeling Crystal?  Is there something wrong? ”  concern enveloped Noah's eyes. I didn’t answer him I just left him outside the restroom. Is this one of the symptoms of the disease I carry?  Is it already starting to spread in my body? I'm scared.

[THIRD-PERSON POV] Although unsure of the new trials to be taken in exchange for carrying a child in her womb, Crystal was forced to think only of positive things. He felt relieved because he felt that he had a partner and a companion in the challenges he faced.  Even if it was difficult, he knew he could do it if he had a family to spend time with. When they arrived at Crystal's house, her mother met them.  His mother had a bad opinion of Noah and his heavy breathing was also noticeable. Although Noah didn't admit it, he was also worried that Crystal's mother might not really forgive him completely, but he knew he had to try it so he would know what the consequences would be. When Crystal got to her room she immediately stretched out on her bed to rest.  Even though he only woke up because his condition had changed around noon, he quickly fell asleep and he got tired even f

[Crystal] What's happening? Why is Liam here?  How did he get to our house here in New Jersey. Also, why did he follow me here? We are now sitting at a table, I can see the smirk on my mother's lips as Liam and I look at each other. Noah, on the other hand, held his fork tightly as if it was about to break.  He might be gritting his teeth inside because of the tension of his jaws.  Its every stare at Liam was sharp. I understand Noah is angry and it's not that easy for him to get along with Liam.  Especially to be at the same table. But what happened and is everyone here?  When mom woke me up earlier to eat, I changed a lot because she never treated me like that.  Sometimes there is no food every time I go home because he forgot to cook, or maybe I forgot where to eat. It’s not just Liam’s ar

"Alright, so where are we heading first?"  Liam asked beside me.  He’s on the driver’s seat while looking at me. I shrugged because I also didn't know where we were going first.  We can't eat because we will only eat at home. "Like, where are normally couples going?" I was stunned by what Liam said.  "W-What?" "Crystal, I want you to promise one thing to me today."  Liam said seriously. I didn't answer and just waited for what he would say next while I was scared and nervous. “Promise me that you will be comfortable with me starting today.  I hate that you seem so distant to me every time I make my way to be closer to you. ” "Being comfortable is not as easy as it sounds, Liam." It's not because he told me to be comfortable with him that I can do that in one fell swoop.  I th
