EPILOGUE
"Everyone, dinner is served."
It was summer and the people closest to them were there. Julian and Ivy, Pilar and Luis, Dylan and Whitney. They were in Mykonos to visit Teresa and Fox who were expecting their third child. They were expecting more visit when the child came along in a week.
Fox pulled a chair for his wife who sat in slowly, holding its back.
"I swear if this kid grows any bigger..."
Fox started laughing. He enjoyed watching her like that. He turned to Whitney and Dylan.
"What about you two? When are you going to start a family?"
"Maybe in a week, maybe in a year."
"We've been married for only 2 years, Fox."
Both Teresa and Fox smiled as they looked at their best friends.
"I think it's great that you two finally took the plunge."
"Do you know how long it took her to accept? But you were right, Fox. There are some special things in Harmony..."
"Unless you get married to Ivy Winthrop."
"Shut up Julian."
Teresa felt a someone pulling at her sleeve. She looked down and saw her daughter.
"Mommy, do you want to tuck me in?"
"Sure."
The little girl looked at her father.
"Daddy..."
She gave him a story book and gave him an irresistible smile.
"Read me my favorite story."
He looked at her and smiled back.
"How can I resist a toothless smile?"
Both Teresa and Fox went upstairs with their daughter. Teresa peeked inside Brandon's room. He had ran so much during the day with Luis that it didn't take him time to fall asleep. She made her way inside Katrina's room and sat on the chair as Fox laid down next to her to read her the story. She listened to him as he read on, then he looked at the little girl whose eyes were closed. He got up from the bed without making any noise. Teresa covered her and kissed her on her cheek.
"How did we get so lucky, Nicholas?"
"I don't know, but I hope it will always be like this."
They walked out of the room hand in hand.
"Thank you for always believing in me Resa."
He kissed her forehead tenderly.
"And thank you for our amazing life."
Teresa looked outside where even in the night the skies and the sea connected so perfectly.
"This is just the way things were supposed to be all along. All the heartache in the world was worth this moment in our lives because everything is perfect."
"It was just meant to be then?"
She looked at Fox and smiled.
"Yes, I guess you can say that it was written in the stars."
They both laughed and joined their guests who were chatting happily.
Life couldn't get better than it was at that moment in time.
THE END
