After a fun filled week on the island of Santorini, Sean and Zach reluctantly returned to their busy lives. The blue waters and whitewashed buildings of Greece seemed like a distant dream as they settled back into their routines. Sean, now pregnant with twins, found solace in the familiar sight of the sunrise from their balcony with the sea casting a warm glow over him.
One morning, as Sean sipped his herbal tea recommended by his husband and doctor, Zach. while Zach was getting ready to leave for work early in the morning. However, they heard a soft knock on the door. Sean put his cup down and went to open it. To his surprise, there stood Laura, his twin sister, holding little Lily's hand. The little girl's eyes widened with joy at seeing the uncle she hadn't seen in a week."Lily!" Sean opened the door and was surprised.
"Uncle!" Lily immediately hugged Sean as soon as Sean opened the door.
"Lily insisted on coming here to meet you guys" Laura said while folding her arms.
"Come in" Sean invited Lily and Laura to come in.
They entered, Lily continued to hug Sean and didn't want to let go, Sean carried Lily and sat on the sofa. Meanwhile, Laura went to the kitchen to get a cup of coffee that Zach had made earlier.
"Sean, who's knocking on the door" Zach walked towards Sean.
"Hi, Zach. Do you want some coffee" Laura said waving her hand to Zach.
"Laura, and....Lily" Zach saw Laura and immediately hugged her with looking at Sean with Lily too.
"Lily missed you guys so much" Laura returned Zach's hug.
"Do you want a sandwich?" Zach asked Laura as he opened the plastic bag of bread.
"No, I'm good." Laura took a sip of her coffee.
Zach stood by the kitchen table, preparing himself a sandwich, as Luara was enjoying a cup of coffee in her hand. The sun shone through the window, giving off light, with a beautiful view of the ocean from their window.
Zach and Laura saw Sean so happy while playing and telling Lily about his babymoon in Santorini. And occasionally Sean also glanced at them with his beautiful smile with Lily.
