“Seren, starting tomorrow, you can just pick Sonny up while I’m going to jog to your shop. I want to lose weight!”
Liberty was not getting fit to save her marriage. It was to present herself in a better light and find a better job in the future.
“Okay.”
Serenity had told her sister to keep up with the exercise before the weight became out of control.
“Seren.”
Liberty suddenly put her arms around her sister and cried. In fact, she bawled out loud.
She was suffering inside.
All the years she devoted to the relationship had come to this. Liberty would be lying to say it was not eating her up inside.
She could only put on a brave face so her son did not see her cry.
Holding her sister tightly, Serenity could not stop the tears in her eyes too.
It was like fifteen years ago when she first heard her parents’ passing in an accident. Liberty went to fetch her from school to bring her home. Serenity had only walked out of the school gate when her sister held her and burst into tears. Serenity had no idea what was going on then.
Her sister said that their parents were no more.
Serenity’s mind went black, and then the world started spinning. By the time she came to, Serenity was staring at her sister’s tearful face. She slid her hand across her face only to find that she was in tears just like her sister.
“Liberty.”
Serenity embraced her sister and choked in between sobs. “Let it out, Liberty. You’ll feel better after letting it all out.”
It was not easy for the sisters to get where they were today. They thought they could finally live a stable life, but God had other plans for Liberty.
