Aurora let out an awkward laugh, quickly hopping off the bed as her son stared at her curiously. She crouched slightly to meet his gaze and offered a hurried explanation. “Momma wasn’t playing, sweetie. I saw a big spider on the floor, and it startled me. That’s why I screamed and jumped on the bed.”

Grandma Marie froze in place, her eyes widening in alarm. “A spider? Where is it?” she shrieked, glancing nervously around the room.

Seeing her grandmother’s reaction, Aurora rushed over to her and gently grabbed her hand. “Grandma, it’s okay. It’s gone now. The spider is gone,” she said in a soothing voice.

Still unconvinced, Grandma Marie darted one last wary look around the room. “You… just wash up and come down for breakfast,” she said cautiously, holding onto little Auroraze’s hand as she guided him out of the room.

Aurora nodded, smiling softly as she watched them leave.

Once the door closed, she let out a breath of relief and flopped back onto her bed. Lying on her back and staring up at the ceiling, she felt a giggle bubble up inside her. The memory of Parker’s heartfelt confession echoed in her mind: “I love you, Aurora.”

Her lips curled into a smile as she giggled uncontrollably, clutching a pillow to her chest. The overwhelming happiness she felt was something she hadn’t experienced in years.

Over the past few weeks of working with him on her song, Aurora had found herself drawn to Parker. His kindness, his patience, and the way he genuinely cared about her had slowly but surely made her develop a crush. She had dismissed it at first, brushing it off as simple admiration. But as days turned into nights, and nights turned into dreams filled with him, those feelings had grown into something deeper–something she couldn’t ignore.

Still, she had never dared to believe he might feel the same way. After all, Parker was admired by so many beautiful, accomplished women. What were the odds that he’d choose her? Yet, last night’s confession had erased all her doubts. He loved her. He truly did.

Aurora chuckled softly as the thought of last night’s events replayed in her mind. She had even dreamed that Parker was in her room, and just as they kissed, her grandmother barged in. The memory made her laugh out loud.

After spending a few moments basking in her emotions, Aurora finally pushed herself off the bed. She stretched, heading toward the bathroom. A warm shower later, she got dressed and stepped out of her room, feeling refreshed and ready to face the day.

The sound of tiny footsteps racing toward her made her smile. “Momma, Momma!” Auroraze’s excited voice called out as he ran up to her.
