She snuggles closer, her body fitting perfectly against mine. “Do you think Lev will be excited to be a big brother?”

I chuckle, imagining our little boy’s reaction. “He’ll probably be more interested in showing the new baby his toy collection than anything else. Yeah, I think he’ll love it.”

Violet laughs softly, the sound like a gentle breeze. “I can see it now. Lev teaching his little brother or sister how to build the best block towers.”

“Or how to sneak cookies from the kitchen when we’re not looking,” I add, grinning.

“Oh, definitely,” she agrees, her eyes twinkling with amusement. “We’re going to have our hands full.”

“And I wouldn’t have it any other way,” I say, my voice filled with sincerity. “This is exactly what I’ve always wanted, Violet. A family with you.”

She looks up at me, her eyes shining with love and gratitude. “You’ve made me so happy, Kirill. I never imagined I could have this.”

I kiss her deeply, pouring all my love and gratitude into the kiss. When we finally pull apart, we’re both smiling, our hearts full.

“We should probably get some sleep,” she says, resting her head on my chest again. “We have a busy day tomorrow.”

“Yeah, you’re right,” I agree, though I’m reluctant to let go of this moment. “I’m not letting go of you just yet.”

As we settle into the comfort of our bed, I can’t help but feel a deep sense of contentment. Our life is far from perfect, but it’s ours, and it’s filled with love and laughter.

Just as I’m drifting off to sleep, Violet whispers, “Good night, Kirill.”

“Good night, Malyshka.”
