The doctor finally let Rosa discharge the next day, after Rosa have a shower in the bathroom and already change her clothes in there, Louis had done packing her things.
Rosa was feeling uncomfortable about it. She had no one pack her things before. She thinks it's rude but she doesn’t sure why there is a warmth in her heart.
“Big boss! You pack my things?” She asks with a complex heart.
“I think it is more convenient for you. I am sure you don’t want to waste your time doing unnecessary things and quickly meet Damia.”
Louis didn’t see her complicated expression. He naturally takes her dirty clothes from her hand and wanted to put them on plastic bags, so that they will not mix with her clean clothes.
“Wait!” Rosa grabs back her dirty clothes from Louis.
When she pulls it, something suddenly falls on the gr
“Do you still like me?” She suddenly asks. Louis was surprised by her bold question. “Yes. I do.” He said without any hesitation. “Why?” Rosa had thought before, she was married and also have two children. She also lives alone with her daughter, no man will want a woman like her. She had known this since her mother was like that too. Her mother never remarried; it is because her mother had a child. Sometimes she saw her mother got hit on other men, but they lost interest when they found out she had a child. So, for her, it is weird Louis suddenly confess his feelings towards her. She thought that Louis just wanted to play with her. However, thinking back from their first encounter, it is all her sister's fault. But why did her sister fool her to stay at Louis's house? She had thought this several times but she doesn’t want to ask as she didn’t care
Her heart was pounding hard when Louis said it in earnest. She was speechless for a long time and not long after that, she falls asleep while trying to calm her heart. Louis had finally confessed everything to Rosa. He was relieved. She now knows everything and the only thing he could hope is that she will not think of him as a weird stalker. He hopes that Rosa will not found him weird. He had never experienced love. His love for Rosa had been only one-sided. It makes him quite relieved that Rosa falls asleep or he might have talked more that will make her misunderstand. Seeing Rosa sleep beside him, his face becomes gentle. No matter what, he will not give up. He will try to win her heart.… Rosa was sleeping deeply. When they arrived at Louis’ house, it is already night. Louis didn’t dare to wake her up after seeing how deep she sleeps. H
Louis and Rosa were eating their breakfast in the dining room silently. The only sound of cluttering spoons and plates was echoing in the dining room. They were sitting opposite each other. From time to time, they will look at the empty baby chair beside them. They didn’t realize that they had been sighing several times when looking at the empty baby chair. At the same time, Rosa eating faster than she usually did. She misses her baby so much! She wants to meet her chubby little baby now! “About yesterday…” Rosa suddenly said something. When Louis heard Rosa mention about yesterday, Louis who was drinking his coffee almost choked with the water. He coughs several times to smooth his throat. At the same time, he was very nervous. What about yesterday? Did she found out that they sleep while hugging each other last night? Did she know that he bites her soft cleavage? Ar

At the time, she sometimes still work to helps David in their business. Her mother-in-law said that her friend had taught her a lot, she need to repay them. That is where she decides to agree to get a secretary for David. She doesn’t need to work anymore and thought she had become a perfect housewife. In the end, people still critics her when her husband got caught cheating with the
Louis's deep voice sounds very sad. He didn’t touch her, but his hand was just a few inches away from her. Rosa has strange feelings. Her heart was hot and cold at once. It is like her feeling was fighting to each other. There is a wave of anger but there is also a hint of sadness and a soft voice tell her that no one is as good as Louis. However, there is also a voice that said he will only be good at her now, not in the future. She was immersed in her feelings and didn’t realize Louis had left the room. After thirty minutes, her baby finally wake up and asking for milk. While Damia was drinking her mother's milk, she look at her mother intensely and her hand was touching all over her place. Her chubby hand was poking at Rosa's eyelashes, touching her nose, touching her lips, and stroking gently her mother cheeks. Rosa lets her baby touch hers and there is a smile
When Rosa found out Louis and Olivia was the one who planned to let her work on Louis’s café and rent Louis’s house, she feels angry. She was reminded by people who only treat her well for only their benefits and only want a return where she will be at disadvantage. She hates it. She was being fooled. However, she doesn’t have a deep hatred towards Olivia. She is her sister. She couldn’t dare to hate her. When Olivia vent her feelings on how she wanted to help her and treat her like a true sister, her heart softens. All her thought of her being fooled by her sister are gone. They both are half-sisters but with the half-blood that they share, they are still family. Rosa finally could feel the warmth that Olivia always wanted to give to her. It’s miracle how a few simple sentences but hard to say can make her stress and pain disappear at the glimpse of her eyes. … &nb
That night, Rosa can’t sleep peacefully. She is in the guest room that Olivia had to prepare for her and her baby. It’s dark outside but the room is a little brighter with the bedside lamplight. There are two lumps on the bed, one of them is small and another one is bigger. Damia was sleeping soundly in her mother’s arms, while Rosa was caressing gently her baby hair. The baby has wavy hair, and it is thick. From the bedside lamp light, Rosa could see her baby brown hair clearly. Besides that, the baby's sharp and thin eyebrows and long eyelashes remind her of Louis. Whenever Rosa, Damia, and Louis were outing together, people always say that Damia has many similarities with Louis. At first, she didn’t care about it but sometimes she also compare Louis and Damia's appearance. Surprisingly, her baby and Louis do have similarities. She can’t deny it. When he
“I don’t know what you are talking about. And who is Cooper? I don’t know anyone with that name.” Jess said with a blush on her cheeks. Pretending she didn’t understand what Rosa was talking about.“Hahaha.” Rosa laugh when she see Jess was blushing.“You like him too, right? Why are you trying to avoid him?” Rosa said. Rosa didn’t know Jess for a long time, but she could tell, Jess does has feelings towards Cooper. She also could tell that Jess wants some revenge on him. From the way Rosa saw how Cooper treats Jess, Cooper is too cruel by always playing a prank with her but, it is his way to catch her attention. Not sure why suddenly Rosa remembers how Louis treat her. Louis never bullies her but he caresses a lot when she complains about his messy behavior. At first, Louis had a hard time adjusting his habits by not making a mess again in the house
They play until sunset, the length of the beach and their rented chalet is not far but Damia seems to be very tired of playing with the sand. She falls asleep in Rosa's arms after a few steps. Louis holding a lot of things in his hands. He follows Rosa's small steps one by one. Usually, he doesn't like to walk with shorter people than him, it is because his neck sore from looking down. Sometimes it makes him feel dizzy. But, he never felt that kind of thing when he looks down to see Rosa. He even likes how small Rosa is. If he can he wanted her to be small as his palm so that he can put her in his pocket and bring her everywhere he wants. When they arrived at their chalet, Rosa give a quick shower for Damia and change into clean clothes. They ate before returning to the chalet, so, Rosa let her sleep again after her daughter wear the clothes. After making sure Damia slept deeply
After a few hours, the temperature drops a little, Louis walk along with Rosa and Damia towards the beach. The sand here is so fine, it didn't feel the heat like regular sand which makes people doesn't hesitate to walk barefoot along the beach in hot weather. The wide ocean is blue and clear. You can see many small fish swimming around and you could also see corals and plants over it. There are people swimming in the water, snorkeling along the reefs, and laying lazily on the sand while admiring the view of this beautiful nature. It's Damia's first time visiting such a place, when Damia put her down, she was so scared when her leg touch the soft sand. She screams and quickly curls her leg on Rosa. Its their first time seeing Damia refusing on doing something, usually, Damia love to explore things that she doesn't know. Rosa and Louis couldn't help but laugh at Damia's reaction. Louis and
The Guilty Pleasure Cafe had five branches and all of the cafe become famous as it is. Jessica's business also started to become popular after so many up and down that they had to face. Just at a glimpse, it is already a year of the day Rosa lives in this country. Damia also had turned one and a half years old girl. She can pronounce many words and understand more words when someone talks to her. Damia also seems to love learning so much. She will always pinpoint something that she was curious about and will only be satisfied when she understands it fully. The most patient to explain to her is Louis. Even sometimes Damia doesn't need to ask and Louis already shows her something and explains it to her patiently. He seems to be very happy doing it and very happy whenever Damia remembers all his teaching. Rosa and Louis also had become much closer. They are not awkward with each other now and
After two more days, the doctor finally discharge them after he had confirmed Damia didn't suffer any serious virus. When they return to their house, Damia was running around in the house and giggling all the way. She looks like a little duckling that was very happy finally to return to her comfort nest. Rosa has a smile on her face watching Damia running and Louis following behind her daughter. It was lunchtime, so, Rosa immediately enter the kitchen and started to cook for them. After half an hour, Rosa serve the table and call them to eat together. The awkwardness between Rosa and Louis had finally gone. The days they were in the hospital, taking turns to take care of Damia had made Rosa able to treat Louis like normal again. However, Louis notices something different from the way Rosa has treated him for these few days. She seems to be gentler when talking to him. He also notice that Rosa had a gentle
It didn't take a long time for Louis to return and bring food for Rosa. Damia is sleeping in Rosa's arms. She seems to be very clingy even though she was sleeping. Her face was still frowning feeling uncomfortable, her little hand was holding tightly to Rosa's dress. Rosa can't help but has to accept Louis's offer to feed her. She was quite hungry and her daughter will need to have her milk, so, she have to eat no matter what. She was frowning whenever she have to open her mouth and let Louis feed her but she can't hide her face that has turned red from embarrassment. She is a tough and independent woman, she never had someone else feeding her like this. This is humiliating to her, but for her baby, she tries her best to accept it. Louis knows Rosa is embarrassed but he can't help but feel happy to feed her. Rosa's face that was blushing makes him become bolder to lean closer and f
The registration and admission into the private's rooms are smooth and quick. When Damia was being inserted the needle into her hands, Rosa and Louis were being chased out of the room. Damia who was sick become stickier with her mommy. As soon her mommy left her with the nurses, Damia cry loudly. It’s making Rosa and Louis's hearts ache even more. Louis feels the worst and he even refused to get out of the room, making Rosa have no choice but to pull him out of the room. Rosa can’t help but laugh inside, Louis acts more like Damia's parents than she did. “Louis. Calm down. The nurses know what they need to do.” Rosa pushes Louis and forces him to sit on nearby sofas. “Waaaaaa!” Louis and Rosa turn their head toward the private room at the same time. The room is a very high-quality room, but they still could hear Damia crying from here. This time, Rosa couldn’t hold Louis anymor
The next morning, Rosa open her eyes feeling hot in her arms. She could feel heavy and a burning sensation from her arms. It makes her wake up in alert. When she opened her eyes, the person who is hot and heavy is her baby girl. “Mia?” Rosa was panic after she saw her baby's face was red and she was shivering too. Her baby was still asleep. Obviously, she was in discomfort because Damia was frowning discomfort. However, the baby didn’t cry at all. When Rosa checks her temperature with her hand, her heart immediately jumps in panic. She quickly wraps her baby with a blanket. Even though her baby's temperature was hot, her baby was shivering from the cold. Rosa didn’t waste her time. She quickly changes her baby's diapers, changes into thicker clothes, and sticks a fever cooling pad on her baby's forehead. She always makes sure to have backup medicine for her baby. She
Rosa always takes seriously when she was doing her work. As soon she starts to do her work, all her complicated thoughts and feelings gone. She didn’t even realize Louis and Damia had already hung out in the living room with her. Louis put his finger on his lips, making a gesture to keep silent because Rosa was working. Damia understands that gesture and nods without stopping. She just learned how to nod and shake her head to answer some questions from adults. Today Damia didn’t take naps like usual, so, she was quite sleepy right now. She had not been coming to the café for a week and she was very excited when she finally enter the café. He greets the workers and the customer without any sign of fatigue. She just has a nice bath with her mother and was fed a delicious meal by Louis. She is in a very comfortable state. Her body is clean and her tummy is full, now her eyes are heavy. She was leaning
Rosa pretends to not see Louis when she walks to the first floor. Damia seems to understand that it is not time to said any words that related to Louis, so she could only look at Louis from her mother's arms. It’s been three days since she didn’t get to play with Louis. So, she was missing Louis so much. However, her mother's mood is first. She must make sure her mommy is happy or she will not have her mommy milk anymore. There are a lot of works that need to be settle as she had been taking off and emergency leave for almost a week. She packs several documents to bring to her rent house. Since the boss of the café is Louis and he is also her housemate, she had been making the café like hers. She brings out the documents and invoice that needs to be checked and put it all on the box. Then she called Zack to help her to send the box to her rent house. Seeing that Louis was
