Friday.Jessy went to Hannah"s room. She smiled broadly seeing the baby"s angelic face.
"Hannah, how are you and the baby?" Jessy asked.
Hannah"s face was plastered with a megwatt smile.
"I"m fine and I"m good. I"ve never been so happy in my entire life until I give birth to my child. Previously, I thought my happiness and my life purely revolve around Prince Zain. But now, I couldn"t care less anymore about Zain, as long I have my baby by my side I"m perfectly alright," she replied in a cheerful voice.
Jessy was amazed by Hannah"s transformation. Her friend used to wear a somber expression on her face due to the unrequited love she felt for Zain, but now her face has that certain glow of someone enjoying her life. "You indeed, look great today, Hannah!"
"Indeed I am," answered Hannah.
"Can you tell me what"s your secret?" she asked.
Hanny kissed her baby"s little hands. "My baby gives me happiness, I feel great waking up everyday seeing my baby"s face. It"s just a mother thingy...thing...you know," she laughed.
"That"s marvelous! I"m happy for you!" Jessy was genuinely happy for her friend who suffered a lot in Zain"s hands. "So, does your heart no longer bleeding for Zain"s love?" she asked.
Hannah let out a bittersweet smile. "I still love him, so much. My love for him never changes. But now that I have a baby to take care of my priorities change. I will just focus all my energy on my baby. As for the rest, they no longer matter to me. I can live without them," she said bravely.
Jessy was amazed by Hannah"s new principle in life.
"Aww, I"m impressed by your remarkable transformation, Hannah. I"m so glad that you were able to divert your time, attention and love to something more important and valuable. Motherhood suits you. It"s nice seeing your face filled with happiness for a change," then Jessy paused for a few seconds. "By the way, is Zain having a good time bonding with his son?"
Hannah smiled. "Definitely! Zain loves his son very much," she gushes. "And he seemed to be friendly and more civil towards me, unlike before when our son was not yet born," she elaborated.
"Hmm, I hope he can learn to give your family a chance. You know, I"m kind of hoping that he will marry you one day so that the baby will grow up into a loving family. I wish Zain can love you back Hannah because you are such a good woman, you deserved to be happy," Jessy earnestly hope the best for her friend.
"Aww, let me hug the baby, he is so adorable!" Jessy raves.
"Sure!" Hannah placed her son in Jessy"s arms.
Jessy spends the next thirty minutes hugging and caressing the baby"s feet, the baby erupted into a cute smile every time she tickles the soles of his feet. She was having a good time playing with the baby, she could spend the rest of her day listening to his soft murmuring sound coming from his mouth.
Reluctantly, she returned the baby into his mother"s loving arms.
Time to get out of the room and resumed her duties in the clinic.
"Bye Hannah, bye baby! See you some other time. Baby, don"t grow too fast or else you will lose your cuteness," she joked and laughed.
Hannah smiled. "Bye Jess!"
Jessy exited the room and went back to the clinic, the smile still lingers in her face.
...
Sapphire Blue Sky Tower.
Inside Adam"s condo unit in the city.
Adam was done putting his clothes and stuff into the traveling bag.
Caden was teary-eyed watching his friend. "Bro, how is this happening? I"m gonna cry. I don"t want to see you go. Why do you have to leave me alone here? I can"t live without you!" his face contorted in a comical pain.
Adam glanced at his friend"s face. "Cut the c.r.a.p bro, I"m not going anywhere. I will just go on vacation in the Facility for two years. After that, I will be back here. So please take care of this condo for me," he said while putting his toothbrush and toothpaste in the pouch bag.
"How could you go on vacation for two years? Why don"t you just bring me along with you? I could always drive for you. I"m your chauffeur, your manager, and your servant, all in one." Caden continues to grumble.
Adam chuckled. "In the place where I"m going, there is no car for you to drive. Besides, my brother and I will stay in one room. There"s no extra room for another person like you. All I want for you to do is take care of the three buildings that I owned and you need to check on them on monthly basis, just in case the tenants will have some complaints regarding the s.p.a.ces that they were renting. You need to act according to their complaints and if you encountered difficulty, you can always ask Aunt Ruth and Aunt Ruby"s help and guidance. Seek their advice so that you know what to do. Now that I"m gone for a few years, you can go to school and take culinary arts course if you want so that you won"t get bored. Or take any online courses, whatever is it that suits your fancy. Make yourself productive and active, okay?"
Caden groaned and sighed, he sat on the edge of the sofa. "Can I live in the Facility too?" he asked again.
"No. That place is teeming with vampires. You don"t want to find yourself with bites on your neck, right?" Adam said.
Caden pouted, he placed his hands on his neck. "But Princess Abigail is there, she will protect me!"
Adam laughed. "My sister will be the one sucking your blood," he said jokingly.
"You"re a liar! Your sister and I are good friends, she won"t hurt me," Caden insisted.
Adam inspected the traveling bags and a satisfied smile curled up in his lips. "I"m ready to go," he said to Caden.
"You"re the only prisoner I know that is excited and happy to go to his prison room," Caden observed wryly.
Adam chuckled. "Why I won"t feel happy? My brother and I are going to bond every day, then we"ll become close again. And the best thing is, I"m closer to the woman I love so much and to my family. Those are happy moments that I"m looking forward to. It"s just small sacrifice that I"m willing to commit myself just to make the two people I love obtain their happiness" he said.
Caden shrugged his shoulders.
"Blah, blah, blah, whatever! You"re crazy! You have a good life here and yet you are willing to stay in that room together with your crazy brother? d.a.m.n, that is beyond me. I don"t get it!" he huffed.
