Ever since our time at the pool, life has been a breeze. Chase was more involved, and I found myself seeing him frequently around the house.
It was like a breath of fresh air, he seemed more approachable and engaged. If I had known being honest with him could have brought about such change I would have suggested it much sooner.
Lucas had also been a constant presence in the house. His visits were delightful interruptions as he would engage me in intriguing conversations that sparked my curiosity.
I found myself counting down to the moments until he came around again, anticipating his visits. I loved how he treated me like an equal and it had been long since I felt like I mattered.
Mia was finally back from her grandma's house, and my heart leaped with joy for I had missed her so much.
