No More Waiting, She Chooses Love

Jack lifted Fanny into the air and spun her around in the bustling airport terminal, their joyful reunion unfolding like a scene more touching than any TV drama. Every eye in the place was drawn to them, with some people even applauding. Fanny, beaming in Jack's arms, radiated pure happiness. Milly followed closely behind, her expression dimming as she walked past the couple. Fanny noticed her, but at that moment, Milly's presence couldn't affect her happiness; all she wanted was to be with Jack.

"Dr. Willis, your boyfriend is so handsome," someone in the crowd shouted. Fanny turned to see a somewhat familiar woman holding a baby. She didn't need to ask; it was clear this was someone she had helped during childbirth. Leaning on Jack's shoulder, Fanny proudly affirmed, "Yes, my boyfriend!"

"Dr. Willis, I wish you both all the happiness and hope you have a cute baby like mine soon," came the heartfelt blessing. Fanny responded with a thumbs-up, "Noted." This brief interaction didn't dampen their spirits as they left the airport, fingers intertwined.

"Are you upset with me?" Jack asked, aware that he had messed up before, even though he often had little control over the circumstances. Fanny nodded, "Yes, but I've forgiven you again." To the world, Fanny was a heroine, saving lives and making a difference. But with Jack, she was simply a girl who loved the sweetness of their relationship.

Jack held her hand close, bringing it to his lips for a kiss, "My girlfriend is so forgiving "But I don't want to be forgiving Fanny admitted. Being forgiving and kind often meant- compromising herself, something she was tired of doing. At work, she exhibited those traits, but with Jack, she wanted to be free to express her desires.

Jack understood what she wanted, though he sometimes couldn't provide it, "Fanny, I'm sorry." "I don't want apologies; I want you to spend the day with me. Take me out, watch a movie with me, go biking..." Fanny listed the simple joys she longed for.

Whenever she saw other couples

biking, she wished Jack could be there to share those moments. Jack saw her excitement and didn't want to diminish it; instead, he chose to join her in doing everything she wished for. "Try this grilled cheese sweet potato. It's sweet and cheesy, my favorite," Fanny offered her beloved snack to Jack. Jack nodded, "Delicious."

"Let's go see a movie," Jack suggested. What's a romance without movie dates? Yet, he and Fanny had never been to one. "Can

you sit through it?" Fanny to Can

"Today, I'm all yours," Jack

reassured her, silencing his phone. "Won't it cause you trouble? Fanny still worried. Jack wrapped her in his arms, "My schedule starts

tomorrow. Today, I belong to my girlfriend."

In that moment, Fanny felt as if all the hurt had vanished. He did care about her; it was just that sometimes, circumstances were beyond his control.
