It's been a month since uncle told us about the business. Today is the opening of our new business. Ethan bid goodbye to showbiz world. A lot of people, most of them are fans, are waiting for us to cut the ribbon. As soon as we cut it, the people cheered up and sounds were loud, more like a party or something. Children ran towards the mini playhouse. I went outside and looked at the front view of our new café. "I never thought this would really happen." Ethan came to me and snaked an arm on my shoulder. "I'm so thankful for everyone who helped us." I smiled and saw a familiar person. "Wait, I need to go somewhere." He nodded and talked to uncle. I walked towards the lady standing in front of the café. "Mother?" I called out and she looked at me. "Dear?" I ran to her and hugged her. "I missed you so much!" she said. "I'm sorry mother. I'm so sorry." I said between my sob. "From now on, your mother will be living with us." I heard Auntie Carol said. "Really?" she nodded and I hugged them both. I'm so blessed to have this kind of family. "Sophie! Ethan needs you in the café!" Mia called out for me and I walked inside with them. "What is –" I was shocked seeing him kneeling down, handing out a black box. "Sophie, I know it's too soon for this, but I realize we have everything already. I wanted to be on your side always. I wanted to wake up seeing that beautiful face of yours. I wanted to be the man who carries you when you can't walk. I wanted to be man who will take care of you, cook for you, and grow old with you." the people inside were squealing. I'm trying to hold my smile. "I wanted to be the man who will walk to you towards the aisle. Sophie Morgan, will you be that girl whom I described? Will you accept me in your heart? Will you be Mrs. Smith?" the people were all shouting 'YES!' and I don't have any option but to say, "Yes!" with that all the people cheered and he put the ring on my finger and kissed me. "Yah! You stole my first!" he laughed as I slap him in his shoulders. After that day, the café became successful. He has been there for me in my miserable life. Even though I went through ups and downs, he's still there with me, saying that everything will be ok. I believe to that thought of having a person in your side, cares for you, and treats you like you're his everything can mend your ruined and scarred soul. I became more attentive to God, who help me through the person I love. He couldn't communicate with me because I wasn't open. But then, he used a lot of things to communicate with me. I'm so thankful that God has been part of me ever since. And that's how my story ends
