With Wen's new role in Singapore and Kai's start-up expanding internationally, their lives were filled with new challenges and exciting milestones. But amidst their professional success, they often discussed their vision for the future, including the possibility of creating a family.
One quiet evening, they sat together on their balcony, watching the city lights flicker below. The conversation turned to long-term goals, and Wen hesitated before voicing a thought that had been on her mind.
"Kai, do you think… do you think we could ever settle down? Start a family?"
Kai's gaze softened, a thoughtful smile tugging at the corners of his lips. "I do. I think about it more often than I let on. I want us to have that—to build a life that's not just about work and success, but about love, family, and all the moments that make it meaningful."
Wen felt a warmth spread through her, his words resonating with her own hopes. They talked about the idea of raising a family that cherished both their individual cultures and values, creating a home filled with love, resilience, and curiosity.
They didn't set a specific timeline, but the conversation planted a seed, a shared vision that would guide them as they continued to build their life together. And as they held each other beneath the city lights, they knew that their dreams were no longer individual pursuits—they were woven together, a tapestry of love, ambition, and shared purpose.
