My Wife is a Hacker by Summer

Lying in bed with Nicole cradled in his arms, Jared whispered gently, "Sleep for a bit." "Mhm." Finally feeling at peace, Nicole smiled slightly, and she quickly fell asleep.

As Jared listened to her soft breathing, his eyes softened with affection, and he too closed his eyes and drifted off to sleep.

"I still have things to finish here, but I promise to be at your wedding," Zane said with a big smile.

"And I'll be there to wish you well, Nicole," Doretta added.

Saying goodbye is always hard, but everyone knew they had their own journeys to continue.

"Great, we'll see you in San Joto," Nicole said with a bright smile.

"It's time to go," Zane said, knowing they couldn't wait any longer without risking missing their plane.
