Anastasia's wishes

Chapter 21 -Lost and Found-

Anastasia's POV

I'm on the beach with my boy. It's a nice day to play on the beach. Parker loves the beach. We always spend our time at the beach.

Right now he's trying to grasp the sand while playing with the water. He's wet already. I laugh at his silly actions. I play along with him. He's babbling baby's words. Squealing and screaming when the waves come.

When I feel that we have played enough, I stand up and carry him out of the water. The sun is going to set soon. It's time to go back home.

"Time to go home, baby. Let's say bye to the beach. Bye-bye, beach. So you again next time. Parker needs to have a nap, "

I see him pout. He's so adorable. I know he still wants to play, but he needs to sleep otherwise he will be cranky tonight. I chuckle at him and kiss his pouting lips.

When I turn around, I see him. Nathan. I gasp. What's he doing here? How did he find me? I froze.

He stares at me with longing eyes. He looks like he lost weight. It looks like he doesn't sleep right for a few days. His hair is longer than usual. There are dark circles under his eyes. He looks distressed.

When Parker starts to fuss, I realize that I'm a mom now. I have Parker. It's not just me anymore. This man left me before. He broke my heart badly. I need to leave. Whatever the reason he's here now, I'm done with him.

My grip on Parker is getting tighter. I lift my chin and look away. I start to walk away from him. I'm just going to ignore him. He doesn't matter anymore.

Nathan's POV

I go to her house. I knock and knock. Nobody opens the door. I am so stressed out. Thanks to being nervous and lack of sleep. I call her name but nobody opens the door.

Maybe I got the wrong address. It happened before. We got tips from Anonymous but it turns out all are just pranks. Is this another wrong information? Where are they? Where are my family?

I try to calm myself. I take a seat at the porch and try to think. I see the beach and I pray that they are there.

I go to the beach by the house. Then I see her. She's playing at the beach with our baby. My son. She's using a one-piece swimsuit and she puts her hair into a bun. My son is sitting at his mom's laps with a cute baby blue swimming trunk.

They look happy. I hear her laughing at something that our baby does, I miss her laugh. I want to hug my family. But I freeze. I don't know what to do. When I see her trying to stand up while carrying our baby, I know I have to do something.

And when she turns around, I can see her face clearly. She hasn't noticed me yet. She is even more beautiful. Her body is curvier than before. But I love it more. Her boobs are bigger. Her hair is in a messy bun. Her skin is tanned. She's using one piece of black swimsuit and a pair of flip flop.

She kisses my son while he's pouting. She laughs and kisses him some more. Probably he doesn't want to go home. Just like me, I love to go to the beach when I was a kid. That's why my parents buy a beach house so I can spend time there.

She sees me. Right now she looks shocked. I hear her gasping. When our son starts fussing, she starts to walk away fro me. She starts to walk to her house. She wants to ignore me. Her body stiffens.

"Ana, " I say her name. It sounds like a whisper.

She stops her movement and then turns around, slowly. She looks at me with fire in her eyes and she says, "Leave us alone. I don't want to see you again in my life." I can see that she hates me. She' angry. She should be.

"I can't. I can't leave my family," I tell her with tears in my eyes. I can't help it anymore. My family is right in front of me but I can't hug them.

"You've done it before perfectly. Do it again. This time, don't come back. Go back to your fiancé." She starts walking, leaving me behind.

"We need to talk, please," I beg.

She snorts. "Yeah? How about no. Go away." She hugs Parker stronger. She makes him as an emotional shield between me and her.

"I'll get you back, Ana. I will. You'll understand after you hear my explanation. Let me explain it, Ana," I keep talking with determination

"You're nuts if you think I will listen to you." She sneers.

I hear our baby starts crying harder, so she turns on her heel and storms away to her house. She leaves me alone her. God, how I want to run and hug them. I don't want to let them go again.

Now that I find her, I will do everything I can to get her back. I won't lose her again. I need to think about my plan. I know she won't forgive me easily. I doubt she will listen to me.
She is stubborn. So I have to make a good plan to get my family back.
