Let Me Stay The Night

Being held by Nathaniel, Christina felt as if she was the happiest woman in the world..

A sweet sentiment filled her heart to the brim.

“Oh, by the way, what wish did you make earlier?” asked Nathaniel, recalling the moment when Christina had closed her eyes for quite some time to make a wish.

He was certain she must have desired something, and he wanted to help her fulfill it.

Christina shook her head. With great devotion, she said, “A wish cannot be spoken out loud. Once spoken, it loses its magic.”

Nathaniel had never believed in such things, but he would not press Christina if she was reluctant to share. He merely held her right within his robust arms.

Together, they watched the lively scene within their home.

In unison, a shared thought dawned on them. If only this moment could last forever.

That night, everyone indulged in the sweetest dreams.

In the ensuing week, Christina was swamped with the task of creating Madison’s dresses, and she practically lived in her studio.

She had no spare time to pick up Camila and Lucas from the kindergarten.

The children were taken to the Hadley residence for a few days.

Work consumed Nathaniel as well. When he wasn’t seated at his desk drowning in documents, he was out visiting various shopping malls and construction projects for inspections.

The couple would leave early and return late, scarcely getting a glimpse of each other.

Yet, they did not bicker or grumble about each other. Instead, they encouraged each other, striving to carve out time at the end of the year to take their children on vacation.
