“The situation at the disaster zone has stabilized. The focus now is on resettling the survivors. You don’t need to worry.”

After reporting the situation, Caden paused for a few seconds before his deep, magnetic voice came through the receiver again.

“But, Rosaline, I’m serious too. I miss you. I really want to see you right now.”

He had said many sweet things before, but hearing these words still rippled my heart.
