62 (EPILOGUE)

"Wylow! Come here, baby."

I wiped Wylow's mouth that is full of chocolate, Haru gave me an extra tissue.

"Britanny should be the one who is doing that." He said, I threw the used tissue on his face.

"She's busy on preparing the foods."

He sat down at my side while fixing Wylow's hair, "If we ever have a baby, she will be beautiful like you or he will be more handsome than me?"

I pushed him with all my strength, "Stop that nonsense. I didn't even give you a permission to court me again."

"I can court you in bed," he said while twitching his eyebrows up and down. Yuck, he's so disgusting.

We left him there, I heard him calling my name, but I ignored it. While waiting for Britanny and Haxilla, I scrolled at my feed.

"Their baby is so cute."

Maxine posted their family picture for the new year, they all look elegant. I stared at Jaxon, he is more comfortable now with his own family than before. He already accepted it like I did.

"Wylow, did you make Aunt Selena stressed?" Britanny said while getting her son from my arms. I shake my head at her, she peeked at my phone, "Maxine gained weight, huh."

"Yes, maybe it's because of pregnancy. By the way, is everyone ready?" I asked.

She nods, "Hm, that's why I looked for Wylow. Let's go."

"Happy birthday to you... Happy birthday to you..."

Wylow's birthday celebration went alive and fun. While watching the other visitors enjoying the party, Raven gave me a cup of juice and sat beside me.

"You seem more alive now."

"That's resurrection," I joked.

He sighed, "After my mother died, I don't think that I can cope with it."

I looked at him, his face is full of sadness. He tried to smile, but it can't change his sad eyes, "But, every time I see you, it reminds me that I should be stronger. All the things happened to you is worse than mine, but still, you can keep your smile."

"Nothing will happen if I stayed in the dark, if I don't move to find the light. It's scary to stay in that kind of place, so you should also do that. Even it has a long path to take before you get to the light, you must keep on moving on. That's how life works."
