Sara's POV:
“I can’t wait for that day,”
I murmur as I caresses my belly. Arush threads a hand through my hair and smiles, his gaze overflowing with love.
“Me neither, baby, but let’s not forget to enjoy every step along the way, all right?” I nod, my worries put to rest.
“I love you,” I tell him.
“I’ve never told you this, but I’m grateful that you don’t demand my trust or faith, nor do you punish me for my insecurities. I know I’m not the easiest person to be married to, but you… if soulmates exist, I think you might be mine.”
The way he smiles at me makes my heart skip a beat. He leans in, but just before his lips meet mine, both of our phones start to ring.
I step back and frown as I grab my phone from my desk.
“Hey mom,” I murmur, surprised that she’d call me when she knows Arush and I are coming over in just an hour or so.
We promised to spend this weekend with Dad and her, after all.
“ Sara” she says, her voice sounding strained. “ your dad… please come
home, okay? Please.”I glance at Arush, who’s staring back at me, his face pale and his own phone pressed to his ear. His hand drops to his side and his phone slips out of it, the sound of it clattering to the floor loud in my quiet office.
The heartbreak in his eyes tells me everything my mother couldn’t say.
I stare in front of me, my eyes filling with tears all over again. I got one final look at 𝐡𝐢𝐦 , and it kills me to know I’ll never see him again.Arush’s arm wraps around my waist, and I lean into him for support. He hasn’t left my side since we got the call. It all seems like a blur to me, but I remember fragments of him putting me in the shower, and asking both my mother and me to eat something. He’s taken care of us to the best of his abilities, and if not for him, I’m not sure I’d have it in me to stand here today.
