Esther's Farewell To Everyone

Theron had drifted to deep sleep with a smile of content on his handsome face. He looked like he had not slept this peacefully in years and was finally getting his first good sleep with his wife in his arms. 

On the other hand, Esther only slept briefly as she knew she had little time left. She accompanied her husband in bed for the last time till before the break of dawn. 

At the first crack of light on the still dark sky, she felt her heart clench. She knew it was time to leave, and if she wouldn't do it now, she would never be able to leave. When Theron wakes up and finds her in his embrace, he would once again shower her with love like the old Theron. 

Her intuition was telling her that this night had healed the wounds of their past. Theron would not let her be away from his sight even for a moment, trying to patch up and compensate for the time they've lost, and it would only make it more difficult for her to leave.
