30. Time flies

No One PoV

Milk and Love's home echoed with the sound of laughter and playful banter as Sam and Lily, their energetic 10-year-old twins, raced around the backyard. It was a sunny Saturday morning, and Milk and Love sat together on the porch, savoring the sight of their children's joy.

"Can you believe they're already 10?" Milk mused, her voice tinged with a mix of wonder and pride.

Love nodded, her gaze following Sam and Lily's antics. "It feels like just yesterday when they were born. Time flies so fast."

Their thoughts drifted to their dear friends, View and June, who had finally welcomed their own daughter, Mia, into the world a few years after Sam and Lily were born. Mia and Lily had become inseparable, sharing secrets and dreams like true sisters.

"They're growing up so beautifully," Love remarked, a smile playing on her lips. "I'm glad they have each other."

Milk squeezed Love's hand affectionately. "Just like we have each other," she whispered, her heart swelling with love.

Meanwhile, Tu had found happiness with her partner and had expanded their pottery shop business to a new branch in Phuket. Their business had flourished, attracting tourists and locals alike with their unique creations and heartfelt craftsmanship.

One afternoon, Milk and Love decided to visit View and June's cozy home. Mia and Lily were already huddled together in Mia's room, giggling over a stack of books.

"Mom! Mommy!" Lily exclaimed, bounding over to give Milk and Love a tight hug. "Guess what Mia and I did today?"

Mia chimed in, her eyes sparkling with excitement. "We planted flowers in the garden! Lily helped me choose the prettiest ones."

Love exchanged a knowing glance with View, who smiled warmly. "They're quite the team," View remarked, her voice filled with affection.

After catching up with View and June over tea, Milk and Love returned home with Sam and Lily, their hearts full of gratitude for their loving family and cherished friendships. As they tucked Sam and Lily into bed that night, they exchanged stories and laughter, grateful for the bonds that had grown stronger with each passing year.

"Our family is everything," Milk whispered to Love, their voices soft in the quiet of the evening.

Love nodded, pressing a kiss to Milk's forehead. "Yes," she murmured, "and our love is the foundation of it all."

And as the moon cast its gentle glow over their home, Milk and Love embraced the peacefulness of the moment, knowing that their journey together was a testament to the enduring power of love and family.

In the cozy comfort of their home, Sam sat at the kitchen table, flipping through his favorite book on dinosaurs while Milk prepared snacks nearby. The afternoon sun streamed through the window, casting a warm glow over their conversation.

"Hey, Mom," Sam began tentatively, glancing up from his book. "Today at school, some kids teased me."

Milk turned from the counter, her brows furrowing with concern. "Teased you? About what?"

Sam hesitated for a moment, his fingers tracing the edge of the book nervously. "They called me gay," he finally admitted, his voice quiet.

Milk's heart sank, her protective instincts kicking in. "Oh, Sam," she murmured, crossing the kitchen to sit beside him. "I'm so sorry you had to go through that. Kids can be so unkind sometimes."

Sam shrugged, his expression a mix of frustration and confusion. "They said it's because I like pretty things and dinosaurs," he explained, his voice tinged with uncertainty.
