Tatiana changed into the oversized "dress" with excitement, spinning joyfully in
front of the mirror. She found more happiness in it than in wearing any other
fancy dresses.
Suddenly, her phone rang, startling her.
She tiptoed to the bedside, took the phone, and saw from the caller ID that it was
Lyla. Her heart raced, panic setting in.
Eventually, concerned that Lyla was worried about her, she chose to answer the
call.
"Taty, why aren't you home? Where did you go?" Lyla sounded very worried.
"I-I'm fine, Mom. I'm doing alright.”
"Where are you now?"
I am in Solana City with Sean."
Tatiana mustered the courage and said, "I'm not going home, Mom. Sean is
upset, so I want to stay with him."
The conversation lapsed into silence, making her feel uncomfortable.
After a long while, Lyla asked softly, "Are both of you staying at a hotel or
Alyssa's house in Solana City?"
"No, Sean has a house in Solana City," Tatiana became softer as she spoke. Her
face blushed.
"So, I see you've made a decision. Are you prepared?"
Tatiana was dumbfounded. Her eyes fluttered. "Huh?"
"Sean is a good person. You are 22 now, an adult. I know I can't stop you, even if
I wanted to."
"Mom, I..."
Lyla let out a long sigh. Her voice was gentle and didn't show a hint of
dissatisfaction toward her. She only sounded concerned. "Taty, you don't need to
explain to me. I've been there before. How would I not understand?
"If you've decided to give yourself to Sean, I won't stop you. But please take the
necessary precautions. After all, both of you are not married yet. Even if you love
this man, you have to protect yourself and draw boundaries.
"But I do know how much Sean loves you. I'm sure he will take good care of
you."
Tatiana was so moved that tears welled up in her eyes. Her heart raced wildly,
and her face blushed with embarrassment.
Tatiana waited in the room for a while. But since Sean didn't come upstairs to find
her, she went to look for him instead.

sound of water boiling. Sean had his

Barefoot, Tatiana ran to him and hugged him from behind. Softly and coyly, she
asked, "Sean? What's the matter? Did you zone out?"
Sean's body shuddered. He frantically wiped the tears at the corner of his eyes,
but it was too late. Tatiana saw everything.
"Sean, y-you're crying?"
"I'm fine." Sean lowered his head, avoiding her gaze. A teardrop slid from his jaw
into the pot of milk.

both hands on his shoulders to make
him look at her. Panicking and aching
for him, she saw his damp face.
