After dinner, on the drive back, Kaia looked at the pedestrians on the sidewalk.
Some were rushing by, while others strolled leisurely. She couldn't help but wonder about the true meaning of life.
Perhaps there was no grand meaning, no need for stubborn attachments. Maybe all it required was a happy and fulfilling journey.
For the past seven years, she had consumed all her passion in her marriage. If there was a silver lining, it was that Finnian's excellence had forced her to sprint relentlessly in her career, never daring to pause. That was the only reason she had achieved the success she enjoyed today.
The light turned green, and she hit the gas. Previously, she had felt it was wrong to use Simon as a tool to heal her emotional wounds. Now, looking back, she realized she had completely let go of the past. Deciding to date Simon wasn't an impulsive choice.
Simon had waited for her all these years. She had given him ambiguous answers and even gently rejected him.
But he hadn't left. He remained exactly where he was, never intruding but never giving up, either.
How many times in life could someone be remembered and yearned for so enduringly?
Never. To have it happen even once was a profound blessing.
When Silas had mentioned that his sister was returning from abroad for the holidays, Kaia had extended an invitation for dinner.
It was a casual evening out. Seraphina and Silas arrived together. Seraphina wore an elegant sweater, her short hair giving her a chic, vibrant energy.
Silas looked at Kaia, a swirl of unreadable emotions darkening his gaze.
After taking his seat, he seemed much quieter than usual.
