Can’t Win Me Back

As Lauren wrote, a soft and motherly glow came across her face.

Landon, on the other hand, hid behind her.

His face was downcast, and his pale lips trembled uncontrollably.

He hugged her from behind and rested his chin on her shoulder.

He nuzzled against her longingly.

His eyes filled with tears that were so close to streaming down his face.

"Darling, didn't you say...

that you didn't want to have children?" Landon's voice was unusually low and gravelly.

With his lips right next to her ear, he asked, "Didn't you want to study art and be my only woman forever?" Lauren's lashes fluttered shyly.

She focused her attention on writing, "That was in the past.

That's not what's on my mind now." A lump rose in her throat.

"Landon, I know that my physical condition isn't great.

I have to take medications and get injections every day.

I don't even know when I can be discharged.

"It doesn't matter if it's a boy or a girl.

I want to have a child whom we can raise together.

This way, even if 1 were to one day leave this world before you, our child will still be here to keep you company.
