Nash gently placed her back on the sofa and smiled, “Not bad at all. I quite enjoyed that. I’m looking forward to our next session.”With that, he quickly escaped to the bathroom, and soon the sound of running water filled the room. Nina knew exactly what was going on and couldn’t help but smile to herself. The next morning, Julia woke up early, waiting for Nash. As soon as she saw him coming downstairs, she approached him. “Nash, there’s something I want to discuss with you.” Nash nodded and joined her on the sofa. “Sure, what’s on your mind?””I’d like Nina to come stay with us for a while. I mentioned it to her yesterday, but she’s a bit hesitant. I think if you agree, she’ll be more likely to go along with it.”Julia’s request put Nash in a difficult position. Work was hectic, and agreeing would mean being separated from Nina. The thought of being apart from her, even for a short time, was hard for him to accept.After all, they had missed out on so much time together, and now he wanted to make up for those lost years, not spend them apart.Seeing the hopeful look in Julia’s eyes, he hesitated for a long moment before suggesting, “How about you all stay here with us?””Nash, you’re busy with work, and as a man, there are things you might miss when it comes to taking care of Nina. I’m different. I’m free to be with her all the time.”Julia stood up, startling Nash, who quickly grabbed her hand. “What are you doing?””Nina might not be my biological daughter, but after raising her for so many years, she’s even closer to me than if she were. If you don’t agree, I’m ready to get down on my knees and beg you.””Please, don’t do that. I agree, I agree! But it will be a lot of trouble for you.” Nash helped her back onto the sofa and immediately made arrangements. “I’ll have everything you need prepared. Just let me know if you need anything else.”Julia was pleased. As long as Nina came with her, the details didn’t matter. She assured Nash that all they needed were a few things that Nina liked.When Nina came downstairs, Nash was quick to escort her to the dining room, where he informed her about going to stay with her parents. She was surprised, but Nash nodded reassuringly.While Julia was in the kitchen, Nash sneaked a kiss. “A change of scenery will do you good. I’ll bring Orion over for the weekends, and we can return for school during the week.” “You promise? No backing out. I don’t want to be apart from you. If you don’t show up, I’ll bombard your phone with calls.”The thought of being separated from Nash filled Nina with an overwhelming sense of longing.Nash reassured her repeatedly, making sure she finished breakfast before heading to the office.After a quick pack-up, the car arrived to take them to the countryside. Julia was incredibly attentive during the ride, ensuring Nina was comfortable and that nothing disturbed the baby.As soon as they arrived, Nina was eager to explore with Julia. Memories flooded back as they walked around, filling her with a mix of excitement and nostalgia.After a long walk, she took a nap and woke up just in time for dinner. Seeing the spread of dishes, different from the night before, Nina hugged Julia tightly. “Mom, thank you.” “Don’t be silly, no need for all that. Just sit down and eat. With me here, I’ll make sure you and the baby are well taken care of.”Nina believed her. She had been worried about fitting in again, but now she felt that coming back was the right decision.
