André walked over to Celeste and sat beside her. "Rybrospo's back, isn't it?"
Celeste nodded, looking over at him. "It is... What about it?"
"Well... Aren't we going to go home?"
Celeste's eyes widened. "Home...? During the time we were married, that was never our home."
"It was before we left... Don't you want to go back to how it used to be? Staying on the planet, in Rybrospo towers together?" he asked.
Celeste lowered her head, staring at the floor. "Honestly?"
André nodded. "Of course."
"Okay... Then... Honestly, no. I don't want to go back to what we used to be... I didn't realize how freeing it was until we left and we went and did whatever we wanted. No rules or expectations... Just us. And here... Here is where my family is. Here is where my friends are. Here is where I want to stay."
André was silent for a while. "Are you sure?"
Celeste nodded. "Very... I don't want to move again. I just want to stay here. And Aurora and Chloe are friends, and AJ and Amory are growing up together as cousins... You know?
"Yeah... That's great... I just...don't feel like I fit in here..." André explained.
"It'll take time to adjust, André... That's okay. And I'm sure you'll get along great with everyone when they get to know you better."
André thought then nodded. "Okay... I'll give it a try."
Celeste smiled and kissed his cheek. "Good."
She then went to go check on the kids.
