The trio left soon after the discussion, leaving the two lovebirds alone. They knew that Stella needed some time to let all the information sink in.
Before leaving, Liam took out a picture from his wallet and passed it to Adam. "I was going through some of our old stuff and found this. Thought you guys may want to have this."
Adam looked at the picture in his hand and his eyes widened in surprise. It was an old polaroid. A boy of around four years of age was holding a newborn baby in his arms. The baby was wearing a baby cotton frock. Her eyes were shut close as she held onto the boy's finger tightly, squeezing it. Adam could recognize that the boy was no one other than himself.
"Is that Stella?" He finally managed to speak up, looking at Liam with a faint smile on his face.
Liam nodded and left the couple on their own after biding his goodbyes.
After he had left, Stella finally managed to look at the picture properly.
