The Love that Never Really Dies (Sasha and Sebastian)

Did…did I hear that right? Did he just say ‘you too’? She could not believe her ears from her, but she was sure that she was not dreaming. By the time she found her bearings again, the man had already turned around with a slight grimace on his face. She watched as he walked up the stairs in silence. She trembled as something deep within her chest de ella split open and started oozing a thick liquid onto her insides. Why can’t I get this right? She rushed back into her room and buried herself in her sheets as her heart thumped against her chest. I’ll tell him about Vivian tomorrow, I guess…

Luckily for him, the little girl was pretty obedient. Huh, she’s pretty cute . Sebastian grinned as he walked towards the door. Maybe I should treat her better from now on. Her dad’s dead, and I’ll just take this as an act of charity. After Sebastian left, Sasha finally rose from her slumber and got ready to send the kids to school. “Let’s go, kids! Mommy has to go to work after this!” “Work?

Where are you going, Mommy? Matteo asked as Sasha set him down on the car seat. “Mommy found a job in a hospital, so I’ll have to go to work everyday from now onwards,” Sasha explained. “Be a good kid, alright?” The boys fell silent while Vivian raised her chubby hands and gave her mother a round of applause. “Mommy, you’re the best!” “Thank you, sweetie! Give me a kiss? Sasha said with a smile. Mother and daughter shared a resounding kiss, and the two boys sighed
