A New Chapter Unfolds
Part 9
As they sat at the kitchen table, Nick couldn't help but feel a sense of unease wash over him. The conversation with his boss had left him with a lot to think about, and he knew that he had to make a decision soon. Sabrina, sensing his tension, reached out and took his hand, her eyes locked on his. "Hey, I know you're stressing about this," she said, her voice soft and gentle. "But I want you to know that I'm here for you, no matter what." Nick smiled, feeling a sense of gratitude towards her. "I appreciate that," he said, his voice sincere. "But I don't want you to feel like you're tied down to me. If I take this job, it could mean relocating to a new city." Sabrina's expression didn't change, but Nick could see a hint of determination in her eyes. "I know it could," she said, her voice firm. "But I want you to know that I want to be with you, no matter what. If you get the role, I'll go with you." Nick's eyes widened in surprise. "You'd do that?" he asked, his voice hesitant. Sabrina nodded, her eyes shining with conviction. "Yes, I would," she said. "I love you, Nick, and I want to be with you. I don't care about the city or the job or any of that. I care about being with you." Nick felt a surge of emotion wash over him, and he knew that he had to make a decision. He couldn't just think about himself; he had to think about Sabrina too. "But what about your job?" he asked, his voice concerned. "You have a successful career here. Would you really be willing to give that up?" Sabrina smiled, her eyes sparkling with amusement. "My job is important to me, but it's not more important than you," she said. "I'd be willing to start over, to find a new job in a new city. I'm not tied down here, Nick. My heart is with you, and that's all that matters." Nick felt a sense of relief wash over him, and he knew that he had made up his mind. He would take the job, and he would do it with Sabrina by his side. "So, you're saying that you'd be willing to relocate with me?" he asked, his voice filled with hope. Sabrina nodded, her eyes shining with tears. "Yes, I'm saying that," she said. "I want to be with you, Nick. I want to build a life with you, no matter where it takes us." Nick smiled, feeling a sense of joy and contentment wash over him. He knew that he had made the right decision, and he knew that he had Sabrina to thank for it. As he pulled her into his arms, Nick knew that their future was bright, and that they would face it together, as a team.
