Eternal Love

chapter 14

Waiting and Healing

Ten months had passed since the scandal erupted. Jeff had moved back in with his family, needing the comfort and familiarity of home to heal from the emotional turmoil.

The once-shared home with Bible felt too painful to return to, every corner filled with memories that now brought more hurt than solace.

During the weekdays, Jeff focused on work and spent time with his family, trying to rebuild his life piece by piece.

Weekends were reserved for visits to Bible's family, a delicate balance that allowed Jeff to maintain a connection without overwhelming him with the constant presence of Bible.

The two families were supportive, understanding the complicated emotions at play. Bible's parents were especially kind to Jeff, treating him with the same love and respect as before, hoping that time would mend the rift between them

As the months dragged on, the anticipation of the DNA test results loomed over everyone. Bible had agreed to the test willingly, determined to clear his name and prove his innocence. The waiting was agonizing, each day stretching out longer than the last.

Finally, the day arrived. Jeff was at home with his family when the call came. Bible's voice was steady but tense. "Jeff, the results are in. Do you want to come over?"

Jeff's heart raced. "I'll be there soon," he replied, hanging up and taking a deep breath. This was it the moment that could decide their future.

When Jeff arrived at the Wichapas estate, he was greeted by Bible and his parents The atmosphere was thick with anticipation and anxiety. Bible held an envelope in his hands, his knuckles white from gripping it so tightly.

"Jeff, I want you to open it," Bible said, his voice trembling slightly.

Jeff nodded, taking the envelope with shaking hands. He tore it open, his heart pounding in his chest. As he read the results, a wave of relief washed over him.

"The test is negative," Jeff whispered, barely able to believe it. "You're not the father."

Bible let out a breath he hadn't realized he was holding, his eyes shining with tears. "I told you, Jeff. I told you I was innocent."

Jeff hugged Bible tightly, and for a moment, the pain of the past months was overshadowed by the promise of a new beginning.

Bible's parents stood by, their expressions a blend of happiness and sadness, knowing how much their son had suffered but hopeful

The days following the revelation were a blur of emotions. Jeff knew the DNA test result was a significant step toward rebuilding trust, but the past ten months had left deep scars. He agreed to start couples therapy with Bible, hoping to mend their fractured relationship.

During their first session, the therapist, Dr encouraged them to speak openly. "This is a safe space for both of you to express your feelings," she said gently.

Jeff took a deep breath. "Bible, the past ten months have been incredibly hard for me. Moving back home, feeling like I was in limbo... it's been painful."

"I know, Jeff," Bible replied, his voice thick with emotion. "And I've felt lost without you. I made mistakes, and I'm sorry for the pain I've caused. I want to earn back your trust."

"It's going to take time," Jeff said, his voice soft but firm. "But I'm willing to try, for us."

Bible nodded, a look of determination in his eyes. "I'll do whatever it takes, Jeff. I love you, and I'm committed to making things right."

As the weeks turned into months, Jeff and Bible worked diligently on their relationship. They attended therapy sessions regularly, learning to communicate more effectively and rebuilding their bond one step at a time.

The weekends spent with Bible's family became more comfortable, the awkwardness gradually giving way to a renewed sense of connection.

the strength of their relationship in ways they never could have anticipated. The scandal, the separation, and the slow process of rebuilding trust had left its mark, but it had also revealed the depth of their love and commitment to each other.

As they continued their journey, Jeff and Bible found solace in the small moments of everyday life-shared meals, quiet conversations, and the comfort of each other's presence.

They knew the road ahead would have its challenges, but they faced it with renewed determination and hope.

Their love had been tested by fire, and though they bore the scars, they emerged stronger and more resilient.

Together, they looked toward a future filled with possibilities, their hearts slowly healing, and their bond growing ever stronger.

Mr and Mrs . Sumett faces were illuminated by the firelight, reflecting the deep lines of worry etched into their expressions.

The weight of their decisions bore heavily upon them, and the room seemed to close in with the gravity of their actions.

Bible father  broke the silence, his voice a low murmur. "Was it right to build our son's happiness on a foundation of lies?"

Mother eyes flickered with a mix of sorrow and resolve. "For Bible's happiness, we did what we thought was necessary. But the burden of this lie will burn deep in our hearts. It will never show light, only darkness."

She took a deep breath, steadying herself. "As a mother, I've done something that is unforgivable. But I had to ensure their happiness. This was the only way I knew to bring them back together."

He nodded slowly, the firelight casting shadows that danced across his weary face. "I hope that in the end, they can find true happiness, despite the darkness we've created."

Her gaze softened as she looked into the flames. "We've built a lie to unite them, but it's a sacrifice we had to make. I can only pray that they never have to bear the weight of this truth, and that their love will be strong enough to overcome the shadows we've cast."

The fire crackled, and the silence returned, heavy with the unspoken truths and sacrifices made for the sake of their son's happiness.

As they sat together, they understood that the path they had chosen was fraught with pain and uncertainty, but it was a burden they would bear to see their son's life filled with light once more.

In the quiet of the living room,they held onto each other, finding solace in their shared resolve.

The road ahead was long and uncertain, but for their son, they would endure the darkness, hoping that one day, the light of truth and love would prevail.
