Who?” I asked with a whisper.“Someone from Dad’s past. Someone who wants us to know the truth.” He answered as a tall huge figure stepped into the house with a black hat and walking stick that had a cobra’s head on it.“Nice to meet you, Sophia.” He said as he removed his hat as he bowed his head.“Are you The Founder?” I asked cautiously before he rose his head and my eyes met the darkest brown eyes I had seen.“You can say that.” He said with a shrug and a light smile.“If you’re not, I’ll call the cops.” I said in a rush as Stan stood beside me.He kept mute as he scrutinized my appearance.I wore a floral jumpsuit and my brown hair was wrapped in a bun.He chuckled as he shook his head and replied,” no need for that. I can just leave if you don’t need answers anymore.”“No. Wait…just tell me what I need to know.” I said to him as his smile faltered and his brows furrowed.“I will…if you follow me.” He told me as Stan moved forward.“She’s not going anywhere with you.” Stan said a

“Grace told me she named you Sophia, like royalty. I wanted you to bear the family’s name, but Grace refused. She chose to take you as hers. To make sure you never question your identity. I didn’t think it was possible, Gregory didn’t like the idea of being a father before the wedding. Somehow, we all chose to love you.” He continued as he touched my hair.“I would have loved to meet her.” I told him as I smiled warmly at him.“You have her hair and freckles. Grace had a curly head just like me and Thalia and her mom, had straight brown hair.” He blurted out as I tucked my hair behind my ears, feeling self-conscious.“Why don’t I remember you then?” I asked in confusion.“Because I stopped coming when you were still little.” He replied.“Why?” I asked.“Grace, relocated and kept you hidden. We had a fallout. I hated Gregory’s gambling addiction. I hated how useless he was when Grace was pregnant with Stan…I was scared that I'd lose you or Grace, and it would be too late for me to do a

And in the midst of it all, Leo and I were planning our next step. Together. By the next week, most of my items had been moved to his place.The soft hum of the car's engine was the only sound filling the space as Leo drove. His hand rested gently on mine, his thumb tracing the soft skin of my hand absentmindedly.Leo glanced over at me as he drove into his driveway, his eyes soft but full of concern. "Are you okay?" he asked quietly, his voice barely above a whisper.I smiled, though it felt fragile, a little shaky. "I’m fine. I promise."His eyes didn’t leave me, as if searching for a hint of doubt in my words. "You know you can talk to me about anything, right?”I nodded and smiled at his kindness. "I know. It's just... sometimes the past feels heavy. I don’t know if I’m ready to let it all go yet." I turned my face toward the window, watching the world pass by. "But... you make it easier. You make me feel lighter."Leo reached over and brushed his thumb across my cheek. "You don’t

The next morning, I woke up feeling like I was walking on clouds. Leo was still asleep beside me, a peaceful expression on his face.I gently got out of bed and made my way to the bathroom to wash up, after which I moved to the kitchen to make some coffee. As I waited for the brew to finish, I stared out the window, feeling grateful and at peace.Leo came up behind me, wrapping his arms around my waist."Good morning," he whispered, his voice sending shivers down my spine.I turned around, smiling."Good morning," I replied, leaning in for a kiss.“Would have loved to shower with you.” He told me as he breathed my scent in.
