on the brakes the car skitted on the wet asphalt the impact was sharp a sound he would never forget his heart pounded what had he done with Trembling Hands he opened the door and ran out into the Heavy Rain a few feet away a woman lay on the ground Nathan rushed to her side hey are you okay only a faint groan in response he hesitated before brushing her wet hair away from her face and then the world stopped a shock ran through him like lightning he knew to her Sarah the name escaped in a shaky

whisper her eyes fluttered unfocused struggling to recognize him for a moment she seemed lost but then something clicked and Nathan her voice was weak barely audible Nathan felt his chest tighten this couldn't be real Sarah the girl he secretly loved in college the one always surrounded by the most popular guys the one who never noticed him the one he admired from afar never daring to tell her how he felt and now here she was lying on the asphalt fragile hurt almost unrecognizable then he noticed something her hand rested on her belly a cold chill ran

down his spine Sarah was pregnant his breathing became uneven what had happened to her how had she ended up like this Panic Rose like fire Sarah stay with me her eyes fluttered trying to stay open I I'm fine but her voice was barely a whisper Nathan took her hand feeling how cold she was no you're not I'm getting you out of here no she tried to protest but had no strength Nathan didn't hesitate he scooped her into his arms a lump forming in his throat she was too light like someone who had gone hungry for

too long someone who had survived the impossible fear turned every second into a nightmare he gently placed her in the passenger seat stay with me Sarah don't fall asleep her eyes blinked slowly she was fighting to stay awake Nathan sped through the streets hearing only the pounding rain against the windshield and his own racing heartbeat nothing else mattered now except getting to the hospital in time he had no idea what had happened to her but he knew he would do anything to save her what he didn't know was that the truth would change his life

forever minutes later he pulled up to the emergency entrance and jumped out I need help here nurses rushed over with a stretcher Sarah tried to protest but had no strength Nathan watched as they lifted her onto the stretcher and wheeled her inside he followed but at the treatment Rance a nurse held up her hand to stop him sir you need to wait here we'll examine her now frustration built inside him he needed answers is she going to be okay and the baby the nurse kept a professional tone we'll do our best first we need to

stabilize her Nathan ran a hand through his rain soaked hair Restless he watched as the doors closed and Sarah disappeared from sight for the first time in years he felt real fear Nathan paced back and forth in the waiting room time dragged on each minute feeling like an eternity how had this happened how had Sarah the woman who once seemed to have everything ended up like this he tried to remember the last time he saw her college she was always surrounded by friends living life to the fullest never noticing him he had loved her in

silence accepting his invisible role then one day she disappeared Nathan never knew why and now years later she had reappeared like this pregnant and vulnerable the door opened interrupting his thoughts a middle-aged doctor approached are you a relative of the patient Nathan hesitated I'm a friend the doctor adjusted his glasses and glanced at his chart she's malnourished and very weak her blood pressure was low but we managed to stabilize her Nathan felt a weight on his chest and the baby the doctor side it's a high-risk pregnancy if she doesn't get proper care she might not

carry to term Nathan nodded feeling the burden grow heavier can I see her the doctor studied him for a moment before nodding yes but don't tire her out she needs to rest Nathan walked down the hall his heart pounding when he entered the room he found Sarah lying down pale with her eyes closed he approached slowly Sarah she opened her eyes slowly and fixed her Gaze on him you you're still here her voice was weak of course I am Nathan watched Sarah trying to decipher the storm hidden behind her eyes she seemed so different from

the young woman he had met years ago back then Sarah was vibrant full of plans someone who never let life get her down now before him was a worn out woman exhausted and battered by life he wanted to ask so many questions to understand how she had reached this state but there was a knot in his throat a hesitation that stopped him from pressing her at that moment you need to rest Sarah he broke the silence she forced a faint smile but didn't seem convinced thank you Nathan for everything he simply nodded not looking away

from her he stayed there for a few more minutes that watching as Sarah tried to keep her ey eyes open until fatigue finally won and she fell asleep Nathan leaned back in the chair and ran his hand over his face he needed answers he had to know what had happened to Sarah over the years the next morning he went to the hospital Cafe to get coffee when he returned to the room he found Sarah awake gazing out the window with a distant look you look better she turned slowly and smiled faintly apparently a night without

sleeping in the cold works miracles Nathan approached and handed her the coffee she took the cup with Trembling Hands which didn't go unnoticed by him Sarah what happened to you the question slipped out before he could stop himself Sarah tensed her fingers gripping the cup tightly she looked away clearly hesitant Nathan I don't want to talk about it but I want to know his tone was firm last night I found you collapsed in the street pregnant weak and alone that didn't just happen out of nowhere please tell me the truth Sarah took a deep breath

her shoulders trembling slightly Nathan realized she was struggling with herself as if she didn't want to relive it you'll judge me she murmured I'm not here for that she sighed and after a long silence began to speak after we finished College I kept dating Gustavo Nathan felt a tightness in his chest at hearing that name Gustavo had been the most popular Guy at University handsome wealthy arrogant the type of man who always got what he wanted and for years what he wanted was Sarah I thought we were building a life together he told me he

loved me and wanted a future with me and I I believed him she let out a bitter laugh but when I found out I was pregnant everything changed Nathan stayed silent allowing her to continue at her own pace I told him the same day I took the test I thought he'd be happy that we'd start making plans together but instead he said he wasn't ready to be a father he asked me to fix it as if the baby was an easy problem to solve Nathan felt a wave of anger rise within him Gustavo had always

been a jerk but he never imagined he'd be capable of something so cruel I refused I said I wasn't going to get rid of my child and that I would raise the baby on my own if necessary and do you know what he did she laughed but her eyes were teary he broke up with me right there said I was ruining his life Nathan clenched his fists that bastard I tried to move on Nathan I tried to be strong but the worst was yet to come she looked at him as if seeking strength to continue

my parents parents found out about the pregnancy a few weeks later I thought they would support me that they'd help but she paused taking a deep breath before continuing they kicked me out of the house said I had shamed them that a single mother had no place in the family my mother cried but did nothing to stop my father they sent me away like I was worthless Nathan felt a lump in his throat he knew Sarah's parents were strict but he never imagined they could be that cruel I left with nothing I didn't know where

to go I stayed at a friend's place for for few nights until I managed to rent a tiny room and how did you end up on the street Sarah lowered her gaze ashamed I tried to work I did everything I could but my pregnancy was high risk I kept getting sick and fainting at work no job would keep me the bills piled up and one day I was evicted I had nowhere else to go I ended up on the streets she paused swallowing hard at first I tried asking for help but no one cares about

a pregnant woman with no money I slept in shelters when I could I went hungry until until I got used to it I became invisible to the world Nathan felt a tightness in his chest he couldn't imagine what she had been through Sarah I'm so sorry she shook her head you don't have to feel sorry for me I made my choices Nathan took her hand ignoring her initial resistance I don't feel sorry I feel angry angry at everything they did to you and guilty for not being there Sarah looked up at him Nathan it wasn't

your fault I never let you in he didn't answer right away it was true he had always loved her but she had always seen him as just a friend but I'm here now and I won't let you be alone again she looked at him for a long moment as if processing his words then she gently squeezed his hand thank you Nathan in that moment he made a decision no matter what happened he would do everything to help her get back on her feet the doctor walked into the room and looked at Nathan we have the

test results we need to talk Nathan stood up immediately feeling his chest tighten he knew this was just the beginning the silence in the room was broken by the sound of the doctor's pen scribbling notes on the chart Nathan stood up at once his heart beating faster than he wanted to admit what's wrong with her he asked unable to hide the urgency in his voice the doctor looked at Nathan For a Moment before letting out a sigh Sarah's condition is serious she is malnourished showing signs of severe anemia and her exhaustion levels are concerning the

pregnancy was already high risk but now it's even more unstable Nathan felt a knot form in his stomach and the baby Sarah asked her voice barely above a whisper the doctor met her gaze with a compassionate look the baby is fighting but its condition depends directly on yours Sarah you need to gain weight stay hydrated and rest as much as possible we'll keep you hospitalized for monitoring if your condition doesn't improve there could be complications during childbirth Nathan nodded determined whatever she needs I'll make sure she has it the doctor gave him an approving look

before leaving the room leaving behind a heavy silence Sarah let out a deep sigh and closed her eyes for a moment I still can't believe you're here after all this time Nathan pulled his chair closer to the bed and I can't believe I found you like this Sarah looked away ashamed I didn't want anyone to see me like this especially not you Nathan frowned why not she let out a dry laugh because I remember who I used to be I had dreams Ambitions I thought I'd have a perfect life and now look at me I

failed Nathan Nathan felt a pain in his chest Sarah you didn't fail you were abandoned by the people who should have supported you you were strong enough to survive all of this if anyone failed it was them Sarah was silent for a long moment taking in his words you've always had a way of seeing the best in people haven't you Nathan gave a small smile maybe only with you she she lowered her gaze a faint blush creeping up her cheeks Nathan studied her face realizing that even after all the hardship she still had that spark

that had always fascinated him he took a deep breath and made a decision from now on you don't have to worry about anything I'm going to take care of you Sarah's eyes widened what Nathan you don't have to but I want to and I will she shook her head looking confused I don't want to be a burden in your life you have your own routine your business Nathan gently interruped Ed her none of that matters now what matters is that you're safe I'll make sure you have everything you need she remained silent clearly moved in

the days that followed Nathan kept his word he arrived at the hospital every morning bringing fresh fruit new clothes and small Comforts to make Sarah's stay more bearable he attended her checkups listened carefully to the doctors and even discussed which vitamins would help her recover faster at first Sarah tried to resist his care and attention but she soon realized it was pointless Nathan was stubborn and more than anything genuine you're spoiling me too much you know that she joked one afternoon as Nathan peeled an Apple for her he raised an eyebrow and you're complaining about

it she laughed no but I'm surprised the Nathan I knew was focused on business ruthless in negotiations I never imagined you would treat me this way Nathan gave a faint smile the Nathan you knew was always this way you just never wanted to see it Sarah felt her heart race slightly but looked away unsure of what to say days went by and Nathan's visits became her new routine he would come before work and returned to the hospital afterward making sure Sarah never felt alone sometimes he stayed late even spending the night sitting in the chair

next to her bed with each passing day Sarah felt her heart softening more she started looking forward to Nathan's visits her heart would beat a little faster every time the door opened and he walked in bringing a smile or a small surprise like hidden chocolates or a magazine to distract her she didn't want to admit it but being near him was comforting one night after a long conversation about the past Sarah sighed and looked at him with a mix of gratitude and regret I never imagined it would be you here one day Nathan stared at

her for a moment before responding and I never imagined you would accept my presence she smiled but her expression soon turned more serious Nathan I regret a lot of things but one of them was never giving a chance Nathan's heart skipped unexpectedly you don't need to think about that now Sarah she looked away seeming thoughtful I know but I needed to say it Nathan stayed quiet he didn't want to push her but for the first time he felt that maybe there was still hope the next morning when he arrived at the hospital he found Sarah

smiling in a way he hadn't seen in a long time what is it he asked curiously the doctor said I'm getting better if it continues like this I can be discharged in a few days Nathan felt a mix of joy and concern that's great but where will you go when you leave here Sarah hesitated and the light in her eyes dimmed slightly I I don't know yet Nathan leaned in holding her hand firmly then come with me she widened her eyes what you don't have anywhere to go but my house has plenty of space I

want you to stay there until you fully recover Sarah opened her mouth to protest but Nathan squeezed her hand gently please let me help you she stared at him for a long moment then finally nodded okay I'll accept Nathan felt an inexplicable sense of relief he knew this was just the first barrier Sarah had broken down and he would be there to help her rebuild everything that had been destroyed the next morning Sarah woke up with a mix of relief and apprehension after so many days in the hospital she was finally being discharged her body

was still weak but compared to the state she had been in when she arrived it was almost like she had been Reborn she looked around the room and felt a Pang in her chest that white bed and the sterile smell had already become part of her routine but now came the hardest question where would she go the answer came before she had time to process her own fears Nathan entered the room with a cup of coffee and a discreet smile ready to get out of here he asked handing her the coffee Sarah took the cup

with Trembling Hands blowing the steam before taking a small sip yes but Nathan are you sure about this he sat down beside her and crossed his arms Sarah we already talked about this you don't have anywhere to go right now and I'm not letting you go back to the streets don't argue with me about it she sighed looking at the coffee in her hands I just don't want to be a burden to you Nathan chuckled softly shaking his head if I thought you were a burden I wouldn't insist so much the only thing I want

is for you and your baby to be okay so please accept my help without guilt Sarah looked at him for a long moment before nodding all right I accept he smiled with satisfaction and stood UPG great letun get you out of here shortly after a nurse entered the room to deliver the discharge papers Sarah signed the documents with a mix of relief and anxiety she was leaving the hospital but still didn't know exactly what to expect from the future Nathan helped her get dressed and held her hand as she took her first steps out of

the room the walk to the exit was silent and Sarah realized that for the first time in a long time she wouldn't have to worry about where she would sleep that night as she stepped out of the hospital the Cool Breeze against her face felt almost liberating she took a deep breath as if truly feeling the world for the first time in a long while come on the car is just over here Nathan said carefully guiding her to the vehicle he opened the door for her and Sarah sat down sinking into the soft upholstery the

last time she had been in a car her destination had been cruel now she had no idea what to expect during the ride Sarah kept her eyes fixed on the window the city moved past her people rushing along the sidewalks busy shops crowded restaurants it was a stark contrast to the reality she had lived in for the past few months what are you thinking about Nathan asked glancing at her briefly how the world keeps turning even when it feels like ours has stopped Nathan tightened his grip on the steering wheel and you'll start turning with

it again slowly no rush Sarah gave a faint smile but said nothing a few minutes later the car pulled up in front of an elegant building Sarah's eyes widened Nathan do you live here he chuckled yes and now so do you she swallowed hard feeling out of place I I don't know if I belong somewhere like this Nathan rolled his eyes amused don't be ridiculous come on he stepped out of the car walked around to her side and opened the door offering his hand trust me Sarah hesitated but took his hand and got out as

they walked through the stylish Lobby she felt curious glances from the staff she instinctively shrank back but Nathan gave her hand a reassuring squeeze inside the elevator he entered a code on the panel and the doors closed the penthouse Sarah asked raising an eyebrow Nathan smiled what did you expect she shook her head unable to hold back a small smile when the doors opened Sarah caught her breath the apartment was massive with floor to ceiling Windows offering a breathtaking view of the city the decor was sophisticated yet warm warm with neutral tones and plush Furniture

she hesitated at the entrance feeling like she was stepping into unfamiliar territory noticing her hesitation Nathan gently touched her shoulder come I want to show you your room he led her down a hallway to a spacious bedroom the bed was large covered in soft sheets and a cozy armchair Sat by the window in the corner a brand new crib was set up with a small dresser beside it Sarah stood Frozen in the doorway taking it all in you set this up for me Nathan gave a small smile yes I thought you might need a space

of your own for you and the baby the tears came before she could stop them Nathan I don't even know what to say he stepped closer and took her hands just say you'll stay here until you're back on your feet no pressure no worries Sarah nodded feeling safe for the first time in a long while thank you Nathan smiled and gave her hand a light squeeze before stepping back I'll let you rest if you need anything I'll be here he left closing the door soft behind him Sarah looked around taking in every detail of the

room she sat on the edge of the bed and took a deep breath she had no idea what the future held but for the first time in a long time she didn't feel alone Sarah woke to the soft glow of sunlight streaming through the large glass window for a moment she felt lost the mattress was soft the sheets clean and fragrant and the room around her was a level of comfort she hadn't known in a long time then reality hit she was in Nathan's home she slowly sat up still feeling weak running a hand over

her belly she sighed the baby seemed fine and she needed to stay strong for him a gentle knock on the door interrupted her thoughts can I come in Nathan's voice came from the other side yes the door opened and he stepped inside wearing a light blue dress shirt and black pants he carried a breakfast tray in his hands I figured you might be hungry he said setting the tray down on the bedside table Sarah blinked in surprise you brought me breakfast Nathan gave a small smile it's the least I can do she looked at the

tray fresh fruit toast juice and a steaming cup of tea it was simple but she couldn't remember the last time someone had taken care of her like this thank you Nathan her voice was softer than she intended he sat in the armchair near the window watching as she took a sip of tea how are you feeling today Sarah thought for a moment better still tired but definitely better Nathan nodded that's good you need time to heal she took a bite of toast and looked at him what about you you must have a lot to deal

with at work I don't want to mess up your routine Nathan chuckled softly believe me Sarah my routine can wait she looked away it still felt strange receiving so much attention from him for years she had ignored Nathan choosing other men who in the end left her alone and now the only one still by her side was Nathan you don't have to do all this for me Nathan frowned Sarah I don't want you to think you're burdening me I care about you I always have her heart tightened I know silence filled the room heavy with

unspoken words Nathan cleared his throat now that you're feeling better I thought maybe you'd like to step out of the room for a bit only if you want to Sarah hesitated since she had arrived she had only stayed in the room feeling out of place in the luxurious apartment I think that would be nice Nathan smiled great when you finish breakfast I'll show you around the house she nodded and finished her meal when she stood stood up Nathan helped her walk to the living room the apartment was even bigger than she had imagined the living

room was spacious with a large sofa and an amazing view of the city there was a modern kitchen and an office filled with bookshelves it's beautiful Nathan Sarah said impressed he Shrugged it's just a house but if it makes you feel better consider it yours too she looked at him in surprise you talk like I'm going to stay here forever Nathan Shrugged again maybe I want you to Sarah felt her heart raped Nathan he held her gaze for a moment then looked away sorry I don't want to pressure you I just want you to know

you have a safe place now she nodded feeling a whirlwind of emotions inside her in the following days Sarah adjusted to the new routine she spent mornings resting and walked around the apartment in the afternoons to regain her strength Nathan continued taking care of her bringing her everything she needed but something inside her felt Restless one night while they were watching watching a movie in the living room Sarah looked at Nathan inside why are you doing this Nathan frowned doing what taking care of me like this you don't owe me anything Nathan looked at her

for a moment before replying I do it because I want to because I care about you Sarah looked away you shouldn't Nathan leaned forward why not she took a deep breath because I'm not the same person you used to know I'm not that girl with big dreams anymore I failed Nathan he shook his head Sarah you didn't fail you went through terrible things but you're still here that makes you a Survivor not a failure her eyes burned with the tears she was trying to hold back I'm scared Nathan gently held her hand of what she

swallowed hard of getting attached to you of depending on you and then losing you I've already lost everything before Nathan I couldn't bear to lose again Nathan squeezed her hand lightly you're not going to lose me I'm here and I'm not going anywhere Sarah looked at him searching for any sign of hesitation but all she saw was sincerity in his eyes she knew she wasn't ready to return his feelings but for the first time she allowed herself to believe that maybe just maybe she could trust again Nathan smiled and without letting go of her hand

turned back to the TV in that moment Sarah realized that something was changing inside her maybe love wasn't something to be feared maybe it was her second chance time passed quickly days turned into weeks and before they knew it Sarah was nearing the final stage of her pregnancy her body felt heavier the baby moved constantly and nights became longer due to discomfort but despite all the challenges it was the first time in months that Sarah felt safe Nathan had been by her side the whole time he took Sarah to medical appointments prepared healthy meals and

even read books on pregnancy to help her he seemed more anxious than she was if I'd known you were going to become a maternity expert I would have asked for your help sooner Sarah joked one morning as Nathan prepared breakfast he smiled placing a bowl of fruit in front of her I like being prepared you never know when I'll need to step up she raised an eyebrow step up Nathan do you think you're going to deliver the baby he shrubbed playfully if it comes to that I'm ready Sarah laughed but deep down she felt grateful

Nathan had become a pillar in her life and she didn't know how she would have made it this far without him but what neither of them expected was that the moment would come sooner than anticip ated it was early morning when Sarah woke up with an intense pain in her stomach she groaned feeling a tightness unlike anything she had ever experienced before she tried to turn in bed but another wave of pain shot through her body Nathan she called her voice weak he who was sleeping in the Next Room appeared almost immediately what is it

he asked alarmed Sarah held her belly taking a deep breath I think it's time Nathan turned pale for a second but quickly pulled himself together okay all right take a deep breath we're going to the hospital now he quickly grabbed the bag that was already packed and helped Sarah get up she held on to him feeling another strong contraction Nathan it hurts so much I know I'm here we're leaving now he helped her to the car driving as fast as he could without putting them at risk the whole way he held her hand Whispering words

of comfort when they arrived at the hospital Sarah was rushed to the delivery room Nathan tried to follow but a nurse stopped him sir she needs to be prepped first we'll let you know as soon as you can go in he nodded but his heart tightened as he watched her disappear down the hallway Nathan had never felt so helpless sitting in the waiting room he ran his hands through his hair trying to calm his nerves he had closed million-dollar deals faced extreme pressure but nothing compared to this moment minutes felt like hours then a nurse

appeared Mr vascon celis he stood up immediately yes how is she Sarah is stable but the delivery is more complicated than we expected the baby is having trouble coming out SM and the doctors are doing everything they can to avoid an emergency C-section Nathan felt the ground disappear beneath his feet can I see her the nurse hesitated normally it wouldn't be allowed but she's calling for you I'll take you to her without thinking twice Nathan followed as he entered the delivery room his heart pounded Sarah was sweating Breathing heavily gripping the edge of the bed

tightly Nathan her voice was weak but relieved when she saw him he rushed to her taking her hand I'm here you're doing great she closed her eyes for a moment battling another contraction I don't know if I can do this Nathan squeezed her hand you can Sarah you're the strongest woman I know I'm right here with you she looked at him her eyes filled with tears and nodded the doctor glanced at them and smiled the baby is almost here just one more push Sarah you can do this Nathan never let go of her hand and

then after what felt like an eternity a loud cry filled the room Sarah sobbed exhausted as the doctor lifted the tiny baby wrapped in a blanket it's a girl he announced Nathan's heart tightened he couldn't move couldn't speak he just stood there staring at the little life before him his chest overwhelmed by an emotion he had never felt before would you like to hold her a nurse asked bringing the baby toward him nethan swallowed hard I can I Sarah still weak smiled of course you can with Trembling Hands he took the tiny baby in his

arms she was so small so delicate and yet so perfect the baby stirred slightly and for a moment she opened her eyes Nathan felt tears burn his own eyes my God she's beautiful he looked at Sarah who was watching him with an emotional smile she has your eyes Nathan laughed feeling a deep happiness rise within him she's incredible Sarah he leaned down and kissed the baby's forehead in that moment something inside him changed forever he knew he would do anything for these two Sarah reached out her hand and Nathan took it the three of them

connected in a way he had never imagined possible we did it she whispered Nathan nodded smiling yes we did and for the first time in a long time he felt like he was exactly where he was meant to be Sarah slowly woke up her body still heavy and sore the hospital room was quiet except for the soft beeping of the monitors and the peaceful breathing of the baby beside her she turned her head and saw Nathan sitting in the chair next to the crib holding their tiny daughter in his arms his gaze was full of

pure adoration as if he were trying to memorize every little detail of their newborn you didn't sleep Sarah asked her voice still weak Nathan looked up at her and smiled I slept a little but I didn't want to miss a second with her it's unbelievable how small she is Sarah smiled watching him gently cradle the baby she looks so fragile but at the same time so strong Nathan looked down at the baby and gently ran his finger across her cheek she looks like her mother Sarah felt her heart skip a beat since the birth Nathan

hadn't left her side he was always there for her and the baby caring for them with patience and kindness have you thought of a name he asked lifting his eyes to Sarah she hesitated for a moment I've thought of a few but I want something special something that means strength Nathan smiled do you have a favorite Sarah looked at her daughter and gently stroked her tiny fingers what if we call her Isabella Nathan repeated the name softly and nodded Isabella it suits her Sarah smiled that afternoon she was finally discharged from the hospital Nathan took

care of all the paperwork and made sure everything was set up for a smooth transition home on the way back Sarah held Isabella in her arms feeling a mix of happiness and insecurity what are you thinking about Nathan asked glancing at her briefly while driving Sarah sigh what if I'm not good enough for her Nathan frowned what do you mean what if I fail as a mother what if I can't give Isabella everything she deserves Nathan parked in front of the building and firmly took her hand Sarah you're the strongest person I know Isabelle as

lucky to have you as her mom and if you ever need help I'm here always Sarah felt tears welling up but she simply nodded when they got to the apartment she was surprised to see everything so well prepared the crib was set up clothes neatly folded and diapers organized did you do all this she asked her voice trembling Nathan smiled yes I wanted to make sure you had everything you needed Sarah looked around taking it all in the first days were challenging Sarah was still recovering from childbirth and as much as she loved Isabella the

sleepless nights and constant crying began to take a toll on her one night after hours of trying to calm her daughter without success Sarah sat on the edge of the bed and silently began to cry Nathan appeared in the doorway his brow furrowing when he saw her like that Sarah what's wrong she shook her head I'm just so tired Nathan I love my daughter but I don't know if I can do this Nathan walked over took Isabella in his arms naturally and began to rock her gently go get some rest I'll take care of her

Sarah hesitated but no arguments you need to sleep she looked at him for a few seconds before finally lying down the last thing she saw before drifting off was Nathan pacing the run with Isabella in his arms Whispering softly to calm her the next morning when she woke up the baby was sleeping peacefully in the crib and Nathan was dozing in the chair beside it did you stay up all night she asked surprised Nathan opened his eyes slowly and smiled she took a while to fall asleep but we managed Sarah felt her heart tighten Nathan

I don't know what I'd do without you he took her hand and you'll never have to find out the days passed and the bond between Nathan and Isabella grew stronger he was always present helping Sarah in every possible way he held the baby while working rocked her to sleep and made her smile like no one else could Sarah began to watch this with a mix of gratitude and something deeper one evening after putting Isabella to bed Nathan found Sarah on the balcony gazing at the city lights what are you doing out here alone he asked

leaning against the railing beside her Sarah sighed just thinking about what she turned to him and hesitated before asking what are we now Nathan he was silent for a moment as if processing the question what do you want us to be Sarah lowered her eyes I don't know I'm just scared Nathan took her hand Sarah I never wanted to pressure you but the truth is I've always loved you even when you didn't notice me her heart raced Nathan I'm afraid I'll hurt you afraid I won't be able to give back what you feel he smiled

gently and cued her face with tenderness then we'll go at your pace I'm not going anywhere Sarah felt tears fill her eyes for the first time she allowed herself to consider the possibility that maybe just maybe she deserved this happiness Nathan wiped a tear from her cheek and pulled her into an Embrace there's nothing to be afraid of we're in this together she closed her eyes and let herself relax in his arms maybe it was time to stop fighting her own feelings after all Nathan was already part of her life in a way she could

no longer deny time passed quickly Isabella grew up healthy and full of energy and every day with her was a new discovery for Sarah but no matter how happy she was something still weighed on her heart it was a quiet afternoon when Nathan noticed that Sarah was more thoughtful than usual sitting on the couch with Isabella in her lap she gazed at the baby with a distant look as if her mind were far away he sat down beside her do you want to tell me what's on your mind Sarah sighed and gently stroked Isabella's fine

hair I've been thinking about my parents about how I never looked for them after I was kicked out of the house Nathan remained silent for a moment before responding do you miss them she hesitated before answering I do despite everything they're my family and now with Isabella here I don't know I think I'd like her to meet her grandparents Nathan held her hand gently then we should try if this is what you want I'm with you Sarah looked at him surprised do you think they would want to see me after all this time Nathan smiled

the only way to know is to try Sarah took a deep breath I'm afraid Nathan afraid of being rejected again he squeezed her hand lightly and if that happens I'll be right here but what if it's different what if they regret it don't you at least want to find out Sarah looked at Isabella again and nodded yes I want to try the next day Nathan helped her find her parents address the house where she grew up was still there just as she remembered it the same gate the well-kept garden the white curtains in the living

room window Sarah felt a lump in her throat as she stood in front of the door I don't know if I can do this she whispered Nathan holding Isabella in his arms looked at her with understanding you've already come this far this is the hardest step Sarah took a deep breath and rang the doorbell her heart pounded as she heard footsteps on the other side the door slowly opened revealing her mother for a moment time seemed to freeze the shock on the woman's face quickly turned into a mix of relief and emotion Sarah her voice

was shaky almost a whisper Sarah swallowed hard hi Mom her mother's eyes filled with tears as she covered her mouth with her hand my God my daughter before Sarah could say anything her mother pulled her into a tight Embrace I thought I would never see you again she sobbed holding Sarah tightly tears rolled down Sarah's face mom I missed you so much Nathan watched in silence holding Isabella carefully Sarah's mother stepped back and looked at the baby in Nathan's arms is she my granddaughter Sarah nodded and took Isabella in her arms turning to her mother

yes this is Isabella the woman's eyes wed up again as she reached reached out to touch the baby's delicate face she's beautiful Sarah smiled feeling warmth in her heart but then a firm voice came from inside the house what's going on here Sarah froze at the sound of her father's voice he stepped into the doorway frowning when he saw her his expression hardened as he recognized Nathan and the child in Sarah's arms so you came back he said his voice full of resentment Sarah swallowed hard Dad I just wanted he raised his hand cutting her

off if you came to ask for money I'll tell you now I have nothing to give you Sarah felt a tightness in her chest I didn't come to ask for anything I just wanted to see you to introduce you to your granddaughter her father's eyes flickered toward Isabella for a brief moment but his expression remained cold you made your choice years ago Sarah now live with the consequences Sarah's heartbroken that moment her mother tried to intervene Carlos please but he turned and went back inside without another word Sarah felt a lump in her throat Nathan

stepped closer and put a hand on her shoulder shall we go she nodded forcing a smile at her mother thank you for welcoming me Mom it was good to see you the woman held her hand warmly I will always be here for you please come back Sarah held back her tears and nodded on the way back the silence between her and Nathan was Heavy when they arrived at the apartment Sarah placed Isabella in the crib and sighed deeply I was foolish to think he could forgive me Nathan approached and held her face gently it was

foolish it was Brave you tried and your mother welcomed you with open arms that means a lot Sarah sighed but my father will never forgive me Nathan gave her a soft smile give him time some wounds take longer to heal Sarah looked at him for a long moment before nodding maybe you're right Nathan wrapped his arms around her and pulled her into a tight Embrace everything's going to be okay and for the first time in a long while Sarah believed he might be right the days went by and Sarah tried to move forward despite the

weight of her last conversation with her father returning to the house where she grew up stirred mixed emotions on one hand her heart filled with joy as she reunited with her mother and saw the genuine love she had for Isabella but on the other her father's coldness hurt her in ways she hadn't expected she tried not to dwell on it but the pain of rejection still lingered in her chest Nathan noticed the change in her mood in the nights following the visit Sarah was quieter more introspective even when she forced a smile to show she

was fine Nathan saw through it one evening after putting Isabella to bed he found Sarah standing on the balcony gazing at the city lights she hugged herself as if seeking protection thinking about your father Nathan asked stepping closer Sarah sighed and nodded I didn't want to care so much but I do part of me still hoped he would accept me Nathan leaned against the balcony railing watching her you tried Sarah that's a big deal it's not easy to take the first step especially when you don't know how it'll be received but your mom welcomed you

with open arms that's already a fresh start she gave a faint smile but her eyes remained distant I just wanted him to see that I'm more than the mistake he thinks I made Nathan moved closer and took her hand you don't have to prove anything to him Sarah you're already an amazing woman and a wonderful mother he's the one who needs to realize that and maybe one day he will Sarah nodded and without thinking leaned against Nathan's chest he wrapped his arms around her and she closed her eyes feeling the warmth of his Embrace thank

you for everything Nathan smiled against her hair always the following days were lighter Sarah focused on her new routine with Isabella and Nathan stayed by her side every step of the way he helped with the baby sharing the responsibilities as if he were her biological father and in his heart that's exactly how he felt one afternoon while Nathan was working in his office Sarah walked in in holding Isabella I hope I'm not interrupting Nathan smiled and leaned forward you never interrupt Sarah approached and sat in the chair across from his desk I've been thinking about

going back to work now that I'm feeling better I think I can ease back into it Nathan frowned are you sure you're ready there's no need to rush Sarah smiled I want to I want to rebuild my life I want to be able to provide everything for Isabella Nathan nodded impressed by her determination do you know where you'd like to work Sarah hesitated not yet but I'm open to Opportunities Nathan studied her for a moment before speaking why don't you work with me her eyes widened with you at your company yes you're smart dedicated I'm

sure you do great Sarah seemed surprised I don't know I don't want people to think I got the job just because you wanted to help me Nathan smiled you wouldn't be getting the job because I want to help you you'd get it because you're qualified but if you'd rather find something on your own I understand Sarah bit her lip thinking actually I'd love to work with you Nathan smiled pleased Bennett settled we'll start with something light so you can balance it with Isabella Sarah nodded excited for the first time she felt like her life was

getting back on track in the following days she started working a few hours at Nathan's office the transition was easier than she expected and she soon realized she enjoyed the work Nathan made a point of tracking her progress and whenever she felt uncertain certain he was there to support her but beyond work something else was changing between them Sarah began to notice how comfortable she felt around Nathan how every moment with him felt right more and more she found herself thinking about him and missing his presence when he wasn't near and it wasn't just gratitude

it was something more one evening after putting Isabella to bed Nathan and Sarah stayed in the living room watching a movie she sat on the couch and he was beside her closer than you usual without realizing it Sarah leaned slightly toward him Nathan noticed but said nothing simply glancing at her from the corner of his eye the movie continued but Sarah was no longer paying attention her mind was filled with confused thoughts and then as if she couldn't hold back anymore she turned to face him Nathan noticed and met her gaze the silence between them

was filled with something intense something that had been building for a long time Nathan Sarah whispered he didn't respond with words he simply raised his hand and gently touched her face Sarah felt a shiver run through her body she didn't want to run anymore and then without hesitation she leaned in and pressed her lips to his the kiss started soft hesitant but within seconds it deepened full of emotions that had been held back Nathan cued her face in his hands pulling her closer as if he had been waiting for this his whole life when they

pulled apart Sarah's eyes were shining I don't know why it took me so long to realize Nathan smiled caressing her cheek what matters is that you did she let out a quiet laugh and rested her forehead against his it's a little scary why Sarah sighed what if I mess everything up Nathan took her hands you won't we're in this together she looked into his eyes and in that moment she knew she was exactly where she was meant to be that night for the first time in a long while Sarah slept with a light heart she

was finally ready to embrace love and Nathan had always been there with waiting for her the morning sun filtered softly through the bedroom curtains as Sarah opened her eyes for a moment she just lay there soaking in the calm of a new day the gentle sound of Isabella's breathing sleeping peacefully in the crib beside her was a quiet reminder of how much her life had changed in the past few months she turned to the other side of the bed and saw Nathan still asleep on the couch in the room just as he did every night

he insisted on staying there just in case she needed help with Isabella it was a small thing but it meant the world to her Sarah smiled and closed her eyes again since the kiss they had shared in the living room something inside her had begun to change for the first time she allowed herself to feel without fear without running away but at the same time doubt still lingered in her mind she knew she loved Nathan he had always been there proving in every possible way that his love was real but what if she wasn't enough

for him what if one day all of this just faded away her thoughts were interrupted by the sound of Isabella waking up letting out small murmurs Sarah got up and picked the baby up in her arms rocking her gently Nathan stirred at the movement and opened his eyes smiling when he saw them good morning good morning Sarah smiled back he stretched and got up walking over to them let me take her you must still be tired Sarah handed Isabella to him and watched as Nathan spoke softly to the baby making her flash a toothless grin

she already adores you Sarah said Nathan smiled and I'm completely crazy about her Sarah's eyes softened Nathan thank you for everything he frowned slightly why are you thanking me for being here for never giving up on me even when I tried to push you away so many times Nathan looked at her for a moment before responding giving up on you was never an option Sarah felt her heart race later in the afternoon the two of them sat in the living room while Isabella slept in her stroller nearby Nathan was reading a work document and Sarah

took advantage of the quiet moment to watch him he always seemed so confident so sure of everything you looked deep and thought Nathan said not looking away from his document Sarah smiled I am he glanced at her and closed the file giving her his full attention about what she took a deep breath about us about what we're building Nathan stayed quiet waiting for her to continue I've realized something and I think I need to say it before it's too late Nathan raised an eyebrow but small smile played at the corner of his lips I'm listening

Sarah leaned slightly toward him and said with certainty I love you Nathan blinked a few times as if taking in her words what I love you Nathan Sarah repeated feeling an overwhelming sense of Peace as she said it out loud Nathan's smile grew slowly and Sarah noticed his eyes shining Sarah you have no idea how long I've waited to hear that she laughed softly I imagine it's been a while he took her hand and intertwined their fingers so doeses this mean I can finally do what I've been planning for weeks Sarah frowned slightly planning what

Nathan stood up reached into his pocket and knelt before her Sarah's heart stopped for a second Nathan opened a small velvet box revealing a delicate ring with a sparkling Diamond Sarah I've loved you since we were young even when you pushed me away I never stopped loving you I want to be by your side forever I want to be Isabella's father if you'll let me I want to build a family with you because deep down we already are one will you marry me tears filled Sarah's eyes before she could stop them she glanced at Isabella

peacefully asleep and then at the man kneeling in front of her yes she whispered Nathan smiled yes she nodded laughing through her tears yes I'll marry you Nathan slid the ring onto her finger and before she could say anything else pulled her into a passionate kiss Sarah felt her heart burst with happiness she never imagined life would take so many twists and turns she never imagined that the man who had always stood by her side would be the one to give her the love she'd always longed for but here she was exactly where she was

meant to be in the arms of The Man Who Loved Her unconditionally and whom she had finally learned to love in return the morning sun streamed softly Through the Windows of Sarah's room lighting up the space she turned the ring on her finger still getting used to the feeling of being engaged Nathan's proposal echoed in her mind and every time she thought about that moment a smile crept onto her face let's play a little game for those who only read the comments type chocolate in the comments only those who make it this far will understand

now let's get back to the story she never thought she would experience something like this after everything she'd been through being rejected by her parents and abandoned by someone who claimed to love her life was now giving her a second chance Nathan entered the room carrying Isabella in his arms and smiled when he saw Sarah sitting on the bed good morning future Mrs vasconcelos Sarah laughed feeling a warm glow in her chest that still sounds strange to hear Nathan sat beside her and placed Isabella in her lap are you happy she looked at the baby

in her arms and then at Nathan very but something's still bothering me Nathan tilted his head your father Sarah sigh yes I know he made his choice when he threw me out but part of me still wishes he could be at the wedding Nathan held her hand if if you want we can try again if he doesn't change his mind at least you'll know you did everything you could Sarah nodded I think I need to try that afternoon Nathan went with Sarah to her parents house again this time she felt less afraid when her mother

opened the door and saw her her face lit up Sarah I'm so glad you came back Sarah smiled and hugged her mother we need to talk she glanced inside and sigh when she saw her father sitting in the living room reading a newspaper Sarah's mother noticed her expression he still stubborn but he talks about you a lot I know he misses you Sarah took a deep breath and walked into the house Nathan stayed outside with Isabella giving her some privacy hi Dad the man looked up inside what are you doing here Sarah stepped closer I'm

getting married and I'd like you to be there her father was silent for a long moment to that businessman Sarah nodded yes Nathan was the only person who never abandoned me he took care of me and Isabella when no one else would her father scoffed but Sarah saw a hint of hesitation HEK not the child's father why would he marry you Sarah smiled softly because he loves me and I love him the man tightened his grip on the newspaper I thought I was protecting you when I threw you out I thought you'd learn to deal

with the consequences of your actions but maybe I was wrong Sarah swallowed hard waiting for him to continue he finally lifted his eyes to her you want me at the wedding Sarah nodded her heart racing yes Dad I want want you to be part of this moment her father took a deep breath and for the first time in years Sarah saw a softer expression on his face then I'll be there Sarah couldn't hold back her tears she hugged her father tightly feeling a huge weight lift from her chest the wedding was set for a month

later Sarah wanted something simple with only close friends and family but Nathan insisted on making sure it was special that morning Sarah looked at herself in the mirror dressed in white the gown was simple but elegant highlighting her natural beauty she ran her fingers over the fabric and smiled who would have thought I'd be here she murmured to herself her mother entered the room and smiled when she saw her you look beautiful sweetheart Sarah turned to her mother her eyes filled with emotion thank you for being here I've always been here Sarah even when I

couldn't see you my heart was always with you Sarah held back her tears and took her mother's hand I love you I love you too my daughter when it was time for the ceremony Sarah walked down the aisle holding Isabella in her arms she wanted her daughter to be part of that special moment Nathan stood at the altar dressed in a perfectly tailored suit his eyes shining as he watched them when Sarah finally stood in front of him Nathan took her hand and whispered you look stunning she smiled feeling completely happy the officiant began the

ceremony and when it was time for the vows Nathan looked deeply into Sarah's eyes Sarah I have loved you my whole life even when we were apart my heart always belonged to you you showed me the true meaning of love and gave me a family I promised to Stand By Your Side every day in joy and in sorrow Sarah felt tears running down her cheeks but she smiled holding his hand even tighter Nathan I spent so much time running from love that I didn't realize it had always been right in front of me you were

my rock when everything fell apart you believed in me when I didn't believe in myself I promised to love you with all my heart today and always the officiant smiled by the power vested in me I Now pronounce you husband and wife Nathan didn't wait he pulled Sarah into a passionate kiss as the guests applauded Sarah pulled back just enough to whisper against his lips I have never been this happy Nathan smiled and I will never let that change the wedding ended with a simple but love-filled reception Sarah danced with Nathan laughed with friends and

finally felt like she had everything she had ever wanted later when they were alone Nathan cued her face in his hands and said this is just the beginning Sarah we're going to build a beautiful life together she smiled and rested her forehead against his I can't wait and in that moment she knew that everything she had been through was worth it she had found true love and more importantly she had found her own happiness the morning after the wedding soft sunlight filtered through the bedroom curtains Sarah slowly opened her eyes feeling a peace she hadn't

known in years the warmth of Nathan's body beside her was a silent reminder that for the first time in a long time she was no longer alone she turned toward him and smiled watching him sleep peacefully her husband the words still felt surreal to her trying not to make a sound Sarah got up and walked over to Isabella's crib where her daughter was sleeping soundly she gently touched her soft cheek her heart filling with love you're up early Nathan's voice was low and sleepy behind her she turned to find him stretching in bed his hair

messy and his eyes still drowsy I wanted to enjoy this quiet moment before Isabella wakes up Sarah whispered returning to bed and sitting beside him Nathan smiled and pulled her close wrapping his arms around her and how does it feel Mrs vasconcelos Sarah chuckled softly happy complete Nathan cued her face and kissed her gently I promise to do everything I can to keep it that way the days after the wedding were filled with small Joys now as husband and wife their daily routine hadn't changed drastically but something felt different it was as if a layer

of uncertainty had lifted making room for a new phase filled with possibilities Sarah returned to work at Nathan's company feeling more confident and useful again she enjoyed what she did and most of all she enjoyed working alongside him Nathan in turn was more attentive than ever he made a point to be present in every moment from taking care of Isabella to the little things in their daily lives one afternoon while they were at the office Sarah looked at him and felt a sudden wave of emotion have you noticed how much our lives have changed she

asked watching him review some contracts Nathan smiled without looking up from the papers completely but to be honest I wouldn't trade it for anything Sarah crossed her arms and leaned against the desk not even your freedom your life as a single wealthy businessman Nathan set his pen down and looked straight at her my freedom Sarah I've never felt Freer than I do now having you and Isabella in my life made me realize that everything else was empty Sarah felt her cheeks flush but a smile formed on her lips are you sure about that Nathan got

up and walked over to her placing his hands on her waist absolutely sure they kissed and Sarah knew she would never doubt his love again a few months later while planning a trip to visit Sarah's parents who were now fully integrated into their lives something unexpected happened Sarah started feeling strange more tired than usual ual and constantly nauseous at first she thought it was just work stress and sleepless nights with Isabella but as the days went by the feeling didn't go away then a thought crossed her mind that morning while Nathan was having coffee in

the kitchen Sarah held a small pregnancy test in her hands her heart was racing taking a deep breath she looked at the result and tears filled her eyes she was pregnant her heart raced with a mix of emotions Sarah are you okay Nathan appeared at the door frowning as he saw her so emotional she looked up at him still holding the test Nathan I'm pregnant for a moment he was silent processing the news then his eyes lit up and a huge smile spread across his face oh my god really Sarah nodded and before she could

say anything else he pulled her into a tight Embrace this is amazing she laughed feeling wrapped in his happiness I wasn't expecting this but I'm so happy Nathan cued her face and kissed her gently we're going to have another baby Isabella is going to have a brother or sister Sarah smiled and placed her hand on her still flat belly yes our family is growing the news brought a new wave of Happiness to their home Nathan started planning everything from the baby's room to how they would balance life with another child when they told Isabella who

was still too little to fully understand she smiled and clapped her hands as if sharing her parents Joy the months flew by and soon it was time for the baby to be born Nathan was more anxious than ever holding Sarah's hand as she gave birth to their second child when the baby's cry filled the room Nathan felt tears running down his face it's a boy the doctor announced Sarah exhausted but glowing smiled as she saw the tiny baby in Nathan's arms he's perfect Nathan kissed her forehead overwhelmed with emotion you are amazing my love Sarah
