when we lose the ones we love
I was getting used to, used to
Having you with me
So why you gotta leave?

Hold me like you used to- Zoe Wees

Daliah's POV:

"I was so scared Xavi. I never want to see you in this state ever in my life again", I whimpered while slowly placing my head on his chest.

"I know I scared you Baby but you know this more than anyone else that I will lay down my life for you, if it means you are safe and here", he slowly caressed my cheeks guiding his eyes with the tear stains.

"It doesn't matter if you aren't here my love, so please not ever again. I already had this fright once and now twice but that's it, not another okay. I'm so happy that you're actually here with me", I kissed his hands and stared into the pair beautiful eyes I love so much.

"Wait, let me call the doctor!" I panicked as soon as it clicked into my head that I did not call the doctor yet.

Xavier chuckled at my state earning a glare in return from me but did that make him stop being amused by my state obviously not.

My pretty boy

I pressed the button to indicate we need the doctor now since he woke up and stood up from the chair to go to the bathroom to refresh myself.

"Where're you going?" Xavi whined making me chuckle.

"I am not going anywhere baby, I'm just going to the bathroom to refresh okay?" I blew him a kiss and went inside.

The girl in front of the mirror is not who she was the past few days when she was away from her family. Had it not been for Xavier, I would have given up on hope as soon as I was kidnapped. The happiness of being back with my people is very much evident in my face. The once lost glow is gradually appearing back because its reason is with me, close to me.  I washed and dressed myself in to the cloths Mama brought for me and brushed my long, thick hair and put into a loose braid.

Third person POV:

Exiting the bathroom, Daliah saw that the doctor has already arrived and speaking to Xavier.  She went towards them and listened keenly to all the advices, the doctor is giving them to take care of him. After all the consultations finally the couple was getting ready to go to their home.

Daliah's POV:

When I opened the door to our apartment I was engulfed with the warm and homey feeling it always carries. I took Xavi to our bedroom and slowly made him lie down on the bed to rest. I sat beside and cuddled a bit until he was completely asleep so that I could look around our home.

Entering the living room; there was not a big mess but a few photographs of mine that Xavi had once taken from his camera scattered on the coffee table and Xavi's laptop laid on the couch.

I slowly walked towards the scattered pictures and collected them one by one, even though I don't hold a great value to these pictures Xavi does because he takes care of these pictures like a treasure and once when I asked him he said even though his gallery is basically filled with mine and our pictures, the feeling of holding a picture of you is more beautiful.
He always makes sure he has my pictures in his wallet and office desk, always.
