"I'll always have Christian, I just need to make sure I'll always have you" It had been a week since Randy left to go back on the road. And those words kept running through her mind.
"Sara? Is everything fine?" Sara's Grandma said.
Sara looked up to see her 75-year-old Grandmother, she couldn't have come at a better time as well.
"Yea, just thinking" Sara said staring outside.
"About?"
Sara looked at her Grandma, "What do you think?"
Her Grandma smiled and went over to her and kissed her cheek.
"What does your heart say?"
"My heart says I love him"
"So what's the problem?"
"I'm afraid he'll cheat again"
"I think he knows what the consequences are" her Grandmother reassured. "You know what I think you should do"
"What?" Sara responded.
"Go back to work, spend some time with Randy, I can take care of Christian"
Sara's lips curved into a smile.
"I don't know" she said. "I'll have to talk with Chris"
"the sooner, the better sweetheart"
-X-x-x-X-
"What do you think if Mommy goes back on the road?" Sara asked her son.
"Are you going to take me?" Christian asked as he sat down in his room playing with his toy cars.
"You would stay with Grandma"
"How long will you be gone?" he asked.
"I'm not sure"
"But I won't go if you don't want me to"
"Can I come with you?" Christian asked.
Sara smiled. "Tell me what you want to do baby" she said stroking her son's soft brown hair.
"I want to go back home, with Daddy, in…Saint.."
"Louis?"
"Yes"
Sara smiled. "That's what you want?"
Christian nodded.
"Then that's what we'll do"
-X-x-x-X-
Being back in the U.S was great. Sara didn't realize how much she missed home till she was back. It was like nothing ever changed, Christian's room was till the same, the bedroom Sara shared with Randy was the same, the space in the closet where Sara kept her clothes was still empty. And even though Randy wasn't home that often, she knew he left it like that on purpose. I need to make sure I'm doing the right thing…
"Need some help?" Randy asked walking into the bedroom Sara and him shared. She turned around and smiled.
"Sure" she said.
"Christian's taking a nap" Randy said as he started to pull more clothes out from suitcases. Sara just nodded in response as she hung her clothes up.
"Something wrong princess?" Randy asked.
Sara looked at him. "Nothing's wrong, I'm kinda tired"
"Lay down then, we don't have to do all this right now" Randy said then went to wrap his arms around Sara.
She responded by wrapping her arms around his neck and leaning her head on his chest.
"I'm happy I came back home" Sara whispered.
"I'm happy too" Randy said rubbing her back.
-X-x-x-X-
After a much-needed nap Sara woke up, her head pounding a bit, but it was nothing a little Advil couldn't cure. She stared around the room and got up looking in the closet. She saw Randy putting her clothes away.
"You didn't have to do that" she said walking in quietly.
"But I did" he said hanging up the last piece of clothing.
She smiled and rubbed her eyes as Randy wrapped his arms around her giving her a hug.
"I missed watching you sleep" he said kissing her forehead.
She looked into Randy's eyes, they were full of so many emotions, she couldn't tell, but she could tell one thing, that he was sincere, and he wanted to make things work.
"Having you here with me is better than sex, we've had a terrible trend of shit going on, but I know in this strange world of ours, we would end up together, no matter what" he said.
THE END.
