Chapter 122: Do you still love him?

~~~I told you from the start, I won't be demanding. If you'll have a change of heart, I'll be understanding. I'll never try to hold you back, I wouldn't try controlling you. If it's what you want, what I want, I want what's best for you. And if it's something else that you're looking for, I'll be the first to help you try. Believe me when I say it's hard to say goodbye~~~

SAM's POV:

"Mommy?"

"Hmmm... yes, baby?" I immediately wiped my tears when the door to my room suddenly opened and the face of my adorable daughter hugging her favourite stuffed toy, came into my view.

It's the same day David and I talked and finally said goodbye.

"Can I sleep here?" She asked, her face full of hesitation as she waited for my answer.

"Of course, baby. Come here," I motioned my baby girl to come to me and she did right after closing the door.

I hugged her as soon as she threw herself on the bed.

"Mommy, can I ask you something?" She asked after a few minutes.

I looked at her confused but then nodded.

"Sure, what is it, baby?"

I waited a few minutes for her question and I frowned when she got up, so I have no choice but to get up too.

"Mommy, where is Uncle David?"

"Uhm..." I was kinda surprised by her question and was not sure if I must tell her the truth.

"I haven't seen him these past few days."

"Uncle David..." I paused and stared at her. "He went back to New York, Cali."

"He went back to New York?" Her eyes widened as she repeated what I had said. "But why didn't he say goodbye to me?"
