Chapter 45: Finally Discharged
Kiara gazed out the window, a smile on her face. The morning air was cool and refreshing, and she savored the moment, letting the breeze play with her hair.

It was a perfect place to live, and she felt lucky to call it home.

"Yes, and when I woke up and didn't see you, I was worried that you had left me, just like my birth mother did." His eyes were wide and innocent, and Kiara's heart melted. "Oh sweetheart, I would never leave you," she said, hugging him tight. "I promise."
