"Oliver, you weren't the only one who suffered during this five years. I don't what happened in this island, but it wasn't easy for anyone. Especially for me. I missed you and I hated you every single day. Now you're suddenly back… but my sister is still dead. I don't know what to do, I don't know what to think. Just give me some time."

Oliver couldn't stop to think about Laurel's words. He knows he hurt her in the worst way, but he can't give up. She is the woman he loves. The most precious thing in this whole damn world. So, he decided to call her number.

"Laurel?"

"Oliver? I'm working right know."

"I'm sorry, I'll be quick. I want to meet you today, later. Where can I find you?"

"Oliver, I don't know if I can do this."

"Please, Laurel. Maybe in your apartment, at 9:00 pm?"

"Oliver…"

"Okay. See you later, kiss."

Oliver hung up the phone before Laurel's answer. "God, I'm a total idiot.", he thought.

It's 8:30 pm and Laurel is desperate. Oliver can't find out her biggest secret. Yes, she knows, one day or another he'll discover, but she isn't ready.

"Mommy! You aren't paying attention to me!" A thin voice interrupted Laurel's thoughts.

"I'm sorry, Olivia. Mom's really with the head in the clouds."

"I'm seeing it." The girl answered. " I want to play video game. Play with me, mommy."

"No no, it's time to sleep. "

"But mooooooooooooom, it's too early! I want to play video game. I let you be the player 1, pleaaase."

"Olivia, no. I'll tell you a bedstory, okay?"

"Two! Two or we are not talking anymore."

Laurel laughs, her daughter is so stubborn.

"I want Little Mermaid and Pocahontas."

"Again?"

"Again and again and again and again and aga-"

"Ok, Olivia. Stop."

Laurel tells the bedstories until Olivia falls asleep. Like every mother, Laurel thinks her daughter is the most beautiful girl in the world.

The lawyer really doesn't know what to do. The man he loves, who cheated on her and who is the father of her daughter is going to be in her apartment in 15 minutes and she doesn't know what fucking do.

Oliver is anxious. He doesn't know what he'll say tonight. He just wants to see Laurel and make things right. He just wants his girlfriend back.

He finally arrives at the apartment. " Just ring the bell, Oliver, you can do it."

"Hi, Oliver." Laurel opens the door, she looks very tired and worried, but still beautiful.

"Can I come in?"

"I think you already decided that." She says a bit ironic. "C'mon, enter."

" It's a beautiful place." Oliver says. " I liked it, you still have your good taste."

"Yes, I have. Do you want to take a seat?

"No, please. I just want to talk with you… Laurel, I know I wasn't the boyfriend you deserved, but I changed. You have to believe me, I'm a new person now. "

"Words are so easy to say, Oliver. You have to prove me that you are really changed and that takes time."

"I will wait all the time in the world for you, Laurel. I will do everything in my power to let you see that I'm a new man."

Their conversations is interrupted by a third voice.

"Mommy, who is this guy?"

"Oh no, no no no no no, please God, no." Laurel thought, but her praises aren't heard.

"Who is this girl, Laurel? She called you mommy." Oliver is shocked and thinking the most strangest things.

"Yes, because she is my daughter, Oliver. Oliver, that's Olivia. Olivia, that's Oliver."

"Nice to meet you, Mr. Oliver." The girls says with a smile.

" How old are you, little one?"

"I'm 5 years old and you? Are you and my mom dating? You could be my dad, you're pretty."

"Oh gosh. Laurel, is she…?" Oliver let the question in the air. Laurel doesn't answer.

"Olivia, sweetie, please go back to your bedroom. I'm having an adult talk right now."

The girl doesn't like the idea, but goes away anyway.

"So, you didn't tell me about your daughter."

"Our daughter. She is yours."

"Of course she is." A sad smile appears on the man's face. "You must have gone through difficult times and it's all because of me."

"Yes, I had, but it's all over now. Actually, I think Olivia is the best thing that happened in my life."

"She looks great. When you discovered about her?"

"Immediatly after your boat travel."

"Laurel… I didn't pay for half of my sins, but I will. " Oliver comes closer and hugs Laurel. "I will make sure everything is okay again".

They kiss. Laurel believes in Oliver one last time.
