"I love you that much, and to me, you are nothing less than a wife and Sam my daughter. You make me want to have a family only with you, or create one." He continued, she was dumbfounded by his little talk, clearing her head to think more straight.She stared straight into his grey eyes, "I would also love to create one with you too."They both smiled simultaneously at her response as they locked their gaze on each other, she could see and feel his love for her, it was so big it encompassed all of her.And her love for him just increased beyond the lengths of the space, it was simply eternal love.She looked over the place Sam was playing still in disbelief Leonardo just proposed the idea of marriage for them and starting a family with him and she agreed, but Sam wasn't in view.Her heart skipped a beat.Where is Sam? Searching around the place frantically, her eyes everywhere. She panicked when no sign of Sam was seen.Standing up abruptly from her seat, she took Leonardo aback, but

It has been almost a week since Sam's return from the hospital, a week she resigned from her work and a few days since her suspected ex-husband left a traumatizing letter in a park after the attempt to take Sam away from her.One week, she tried not to go insane over Richard's come back especially when she had a terrible nightmare following that incident. she spent her time with Sam ensuring she was safe and well, Leonardo checked in regularly but could not come over due to his busy nature, he was needed back at the west side office and he had no choice than to go back, promising to visit once he is free.She felt sad he could not see her before he left, but understood he had to, he had work and was newly assigned to be the new CEO of his father's company. During the past week alone he sacrificed his time for her, she got to express her love to him, and he to her, she loved him and he knew that was all that matters to her. Despite the turmoil going on in her head about his departure,

"Richard!" She breathed in shock, finally she found her voice, he smiled wryly at her. He looked almost ashamed...The hurt she bore all these years rolled back to her in strong waves, throwing her in turmoil, she was buried in the sea of her pain, her suffering, his demeaning insults. They covered her once more she struggled to breathe her normal air they were choked with bad memories of the man standing in front of her.He had the same expressive blue eyes, the one that scorned her when she wore a dress not up to class or his taste, she met it once more, it held a different expression soft, it had a soft blue hue to it, he looked almost repentant.She can't believe he is here, and he had a bouquet in his hands. His hair slicked back in a gentlemanly manner, she noticed a sheen of sweat in his forehead he looked nervous under her studious stare.He cleared his throat and straightened his posture, "Alison!" He called her name, it sound strange to her ears yet familiar, strange becaus

Alison sat on her couch stacking the boxes left by someone on her porch on the little table. It was wrapped with brown paper, the boxes are three in number. The third box was bigger than the other, so she set it up first. Who left this at her porch? She was apprehensive about opening it but she had to. Curiosity was eating her up, she can't also deny that she wanted to know who send this to her and they might be a clue. Her fingers scratched the scraps of the brown paper, tearing it open. After another scratch or so the big box was completely naked and had a deep shape of brown. It had a musty smell to it and looks old, some part smudged with white and grey patches. Why would so one send her an old box? She was apprehensive about opening the box, what is in it? She wondered, her mind becoming more curious by the second, with a flip the lid came off, she peered down into the open box and is surprised to see an old picture of Richard and herself in it. They stood under a tree,

With another right steer, Gran Karen little mansion came into view she rode right into the opening gate, but before she stopped something caught her attention.A few meters further to the road, Alison sighted a white little car. She felt odd it was here since Gran Karen hardly has neighbours living around her. The area she lived in was secluded from the public view a bit and her closest neighbours stayed about one kilometre away, the surroundings was mostly covered with shrubs and trees.Most time only she drives on this road, and she hardly has anyone following her behind, she brushed off any odd feeling when the car drove away that very moment.Unstrapping Sam from the belts, she ran eagerly to the door and waited for her to lock the car. Alison met Sam on the porch and rang the doorbell after a few minutes Lily opened the door."Nanny Lily!" Samantha squealed in excitement and engulfs Sam in her arms while exchanging pleasantries with her.Alison trudged in looking for Gran but was
