The Life Of Lily Wilkinson (ENG)

*+:｡.｡ 27 ｡.｡:+*

Jiho accepted his boyfriend's proposal. However, they had to wait a long time for the wedding date, which is why another two years passed before the beautiful day came.

"See? You're doing much better. " Blonde said with a smile looking at her son.

Woman was teaching Ben how to dance. Now she knew how her husband must've felt when he was teaching her how to dance.

"Mm, you're a good teacher, mom. " Boy said with a nice smile.

It was the fourteenth of November, the anniversary of Jikyo's death. Jiho and Trent's wedding was supposed to take place in March. Liliana knew that this time would pass very quickly.

In the afternoon, woman went with her son to her husband's grave and laid fresh flowers, sunflowers.

"I drew you, appa. " Ben said and held the drawing up. "Do you like it? Mom helped me a bit. "

"But you did most of it yourself. " Lily patted boy on the head.

"Mm. " He nodded. "And you know what, dad?! " He exclaimed cheerfully. "Mommy taught me to dance! I'll know everything by the time we go to uncle Jiho and uncle Trent's wedding. " He smiled, and then became very sad. "You're watching over us, aren't you?"

Wilkinson hugged him and looked sadly at her husband's name.

"Dad always watches over us." She whispered to son and kissed his head. "We're doing fine, Jikyo." She smiled faintly. "It'll be fine, nae salang. " She nodded, and after a moment brought a nice smile back to her face. "Let's go to Andre, he said he's got something special for you."

"Aye. " Ben smiled at his parent, then sadly looked at his dad's grave and waved goodbye to him as they left.

They reached the bistro, and there Andre served the young man a hot meal while Jade talked to Liliana.

"Our boy is growing up fast. " Jade said with a smile to which Wilkinson nodded. "How are you feeling, sunshine?" She took her friend's hand. "It's been almost four years... "

"Mm..." She nodded sadly. "Sometimes I think it all goes by too fast. " She said and sighed heavily. "Before I know it, our son will be an adult. " She glanced at her son, who was talking to Andre. "Jade..."

After a long moment, she looked at the older woman again.

"Listen..." She corrected herself in the chair. "If... If something ever happened to me..." Woman began and didn't let Jade get a word out. "Will you take care of Bennie? Together with Andre..." She glanced at her other friend, who had surreptitiously heard what the women were talking about.

"But sweetheart. " Jade shook her head. "What would happen to you? You'll be fine. You'll raise your son, and we'll only help you. " She said. "Nothing bad will happen again. This bad luck is over. "

Lily smiled sadly.

"I just want to be sure. " She said after a moment. "Please promise me you'll take care of him." She looked at her companion.

Dubois sighed softly and took the blonde's hand.

"I promise. " She said. "But nothing will happen to you."

"Nobody lives forever, Jade. " Wilkinson replied and finished her juice.

"But you are not destined to die like this. "

"Like what? " She glanced at her companion. "Jikyo didn't deserve what happened to him either. " She said, then shook herself a bit and got to her feet. "I'm going to work. " She walked over to her son and kissed his head. "I love you, my little treasure. "
