Tatiana

"it's a lovely house, isn't it?" nathan asks as he approaches me.

"quite lovely, babe," i say staring up at the house in all its glory.

it was a white victorian house made in the 1700's by the styles family. the last of their kind died at the age of 23 in 1895, leaving the home unattended.

we were set to view the house today with our realtor bob marshall.

"ah mr. and mrs.verona, welcome," bob says as he opens the door for us and steps aside.

"thank you," nathan and i say in unison as we walk through the grand door.

"this here is the living room..." bob's voice fades away as i lose attention.

i begin to wander around the house, looking on in wonder.

this house was so beautiful.

i traveled up the white staircase that led to the bedrooms upstairs.

a door was left open and i walked in, looking around the big room.

it was spacious, nonetheless and had a big window with a seat.

"it's nice ain't it," bob spoke from behind me coming in with nathan following closely behind.

"wow," nathan admires the room as he steps through the doorway.

"i'll leave you two alone for a minute," bob says walking out and pulling his phone that was buzzing out of his pocket.

"what do you think tati? would you see us starting our family here?" nathan asks with hopeful eyes.

"nate i-," i begin to say.

"let's finish up the tour shall we?," bob interrupts walking back in, his phone put away now.

"yes,"nathan and i say in unison.

nathan glances at me and continues to follow bob out the door.

i follow them down the hallway as we continue to look through rooms.

they walk through and into another bedroom and talk about the costs.

i trail behind and stop to open a door.

it's locked.

i try to open it but it won't budge.

i try to push the door some more but it doesn't move.

"mrs. verona, we can save that room for when you move in," bob says, scaring me.

"shit," i jump up in surprise.

nathan gives me a warning look.

i smile at him innocently.

wait, did bob say move in?

"...move in?" i repeat.

nathan nods and bob grins widely.

"yes baby, im buying the house," he smiles.

i jump into his arms excitement racing through my veins.

although i was unsure at first, i feel as if this would be a good restart for nathan and i.

soon we'd be back to the loving couple we once were.
