His playful nibble on her shoulder earned him a stern look.
“Do you want a replay of our conversation about Elaine just so I can get some rest?” He sensed her fatigue and slight irritation.
She was jet-lagged, and the night had been long.
Gently, he drew her into a close embrace, kissed her forehead and whispered, “Rest now.” Despite the lingering summer heat, Cecilia felt comfortable nestled against him, her steady breath signaling her relaxation.
‘When Mark thought she was deep in slumber, he quietly got up, intending to check on Olivia. But Cecilia's voice, still filled with drowsiness, halted him.
“Stay-1 need you here” Mark could only smile and reassure her.
The soft moonlight painted the room in a silvery glow, and Mark couldn't help but marvel at the sight of Cecilia.
There was a newfound depth in their relationship, a stability born out of growth and understanding.
Reflecting on their journey, he realized that a younger Cecilia might not have given him a second chance.

Olivia carefully balanced the milk in one hand and the cookie in the other, savoring each bite.
Occasionally, she'd close her eyes, pausing between bites, taking a moment of pure bliss.
Her delicate skin and long eyelashes emphasized her angelic look.
Mark, being her father, watched her with sheer admiration and love, captivated by her every move.
However, sleepiness soon overtook her as she finished her milk, and the remaining cookie tumbled from her hand.
Gently cradling her, Mark comforted the drowsy child.
Wrapped securely in her father’s embrace, Olivia drifted off to sleep.
As Mark tried to lay her down, she stirred, seeking the warmth of his hold.
