Chapter 93

• SIERRA
• I stood by the Ceiling-to-floor glass window in my living room staring at the moon expressing its shade over the city. Staring at the stars made memories of Shin rewind in my head. I stared at the gold chain bangle on my right wrist and the glass reflected the tiny smile that anchored on my face. If only I had known that the night we wore this bangle would be the beginning of our woes, I would have done everything I could to change that time. I sighed as I stared at the ‘S’ letter interlocked with the chains. It’s been close to two months now since I left New York and my husband. I heard he had woken up from a coma recently and as much as it overjoyed me, I still couldn’t find the courage I needed. I was stuck on the fact that I didn’t deserve him and he probably wouldn’t want this baby.
• My gaze fell to my stomach as I rubbed it gently. I smiled sadly if only he knew how much I wanted to talk about with him. How I had to deal with my occasional anxiety about becoming a mother soon, how I have been restless and uncertain about the future, how much I’ve missed him, and how much I wish he would see himself in the good light and finally see how deserving he is to be a father.
