Romeo's body staggered, he almost fell when Dulce's hand quickly grabbed him. Dulce, who was no less surprised, immediately brought the old man to sit on the edge of the sidewalk. The immigrant woman sat beside Romeo with a body that was no less shaking.
"How could it be?" Rose hissed in disbelief.
Everything she owns, the house where his family takes refuge and her livelihood is there. Rose stared frozen frozen at the blackened building with Kenzie still in her arms.
It was nine o'clock in the evening when the fire broke out. They had just arrived from dinner at a

Rose hugged Kenzie tightly. Her body trembled remembering that she was about to lose the little boy. Rose's argument with Robert wakes Kenzie. The boy was crying loudly. "Ssh … sshh, Honey. All is well." Rose patted Kenzie's back gently and slightly shook her body to calm the boy down. "Rose… why are you mad at that guy? He was just trying to help us." Romeo looked at Rose in disbelief. "Don't trust anyone, Dad. You can only trust me. Remember that, Dad." said Rose firmly. She was very worried that the same thing would happen again. She cast her eyes around the street especially in the direction where Robert had disappeared. Rose was afraid that the man would still be standing somewhere and then reappear.

Rose fell into the arms of the firefighters when the man grabbed her as she was about to lift the remaining wooden door from the cupboard in her room. Flames shot out from behind the thick wooden door. It turned out that there was a big hole under the wood, where there was still some burning residue from the first floor. The fire almost hit Rose's body, had the officer not immediately pulled her body away. Rose could feel the heat of the fire even though they were already a safe distance away. Rose's face was about pale for sure, sensing the danger that was about to befall her. 'I have to live and be strong for my family.' "We have to get down soon, Miss. I'm afraid there's another fireball still trapped." The officer pulled Rose's hand to immediately get down. "But, sir. My documents, my son's birth certificate ..." Rose was bewildered to see the remnants of the fire dev

Rose sneaked into the room. She saw her father sleeping soundly only wrapped in a thin damp cloth, while Dulce hugged Kenzie in the narrow bed. Rose wiped the remnants of the tears still reminiscing on her face, and she decided to calm down in the bathroom. There was no warm water in the tiny bathroom and the smell from the slightly clogged toilet stung Rose's nostrils. The corners of the bathroom floor looked yellowed and the drains were rusty and full of hair loss. There was water seepage on the roof and walls of the narrow room. "I have to get them all out of this inn," Rose muttered. Rose tied her shoulder-length black hair up and stared at her reflection in the mirror. Sadness is very, very clearly visible there, a sense of despair and tiredness mixed into one. That beautiful face looked very miserable.

"Yes, she is the one. Because of this girl, our shophouse almost caught fire." A fat woman pointed at Rose with bulging eyes. "That's not all, you know, my shop is three buildings away from her's, my customers run away and there are some of them who don't pay after buying food." Another woman with a body no less fat and curly hair looked at Rose scornfully. "Huh! Customers who want to get tattoos, also all run away. Just imagine how much I lost." Another man with long hair located thirty meters from the fire site did not want to lose to Rose. "You know, Rose, my shop is right next to yours. Because of the fire, customers ran away without paying for the clothes they tried on." The tall, skinny woman snorted in annoyance. More than ten people came to the police station to corner and report their losses from the fire. No one sympathized or simply asked how Romeo and Kenzie were. All of them just

Rose couldn't believe what she was reading. The girl's hands were shaking, as she read the agreement document which clearly had her signature on it. She did not remember the article regarding the rental fee that would be lost if there was damage to the building like this time. Everything written there, Rose also couldn't prove because all her documents had turned to ashes. The woman's body went limp. She held her head which felt very dizzy. After a day of worrying about many things, Rose forgot that she had not filled her stomach with anything but water. She closed her eyes, trying to brace herself so she wouldn't faint. "Don't pretend to be sick, it's all clear what's written there. Come on, get paid quickly." Mr. Oswaldo, the owner of the building, mercilessly rebuked Rose. "Master, restrain your emotions." The police officer fel

Rose was stunned to hear the words of the police. What would happen to her father and nephew if she ended up in prison? Rose was getting dizzy and restless. The fear was so strong that it made her whole body shiver with cold sweat dripping down. She glanced at the nameplate on the table, the policeman was named Sebastian. Rose lifted her head slowly and turned to face the faces that had bullied her for a long time. Strangely, Sebastian didn't seem happy when the offer to imprison her was made. "If she is imprisoned, can we still get compensation?" Mr. Oswaldo's question explained the astonishment in Rose's heart. The woman laughed inwardly, ridiculing her own mind that thought if everyone sympathized, pity her. In fact, they are all only worried about the compensation money. That's right, money and former neighbors who will vote for the ex? "I will pay in installments little by little the mon

"Hmph!" Rose was surprised when Robert suddenly pushed her against the alley wall. The man squeezed Rose's body so that there was no room for her to move. Their faces were so close that they almost touched, only limited to the mask that partially covered Robert's face. Rose could even hear Robert's breathing and the beating of his heart. Even the most unavoidable was the man's masculine scent that wafted into his breathing cavities. Robert's blue eyes were so cold that it fell into Rose's black eyes. However, the woman did not look daunted, but rather boldly gave a defiant look. Rose felt angry and uncomfortable with Robert's body intimidating her. "Let go--" Rose couldn't continue her sentence, because with a quick movement Robert's hand covered her. Rose glared at Robert's actions, she rebelled and as quickly as Robert's hands grabbed her waist so their bodies were pr

"W--what are you doing here?" Rose pushed Robert's body away from the inn room door. He didn't expect that the man would finally find out where she was hiding. Rose steadied Robert with misgivings, she was worried that the man would force her to take Kenzie from her, this time. "You hid my son in a place like this?" Robert stared disdainfully at the door behind Rose. The woman swallowed hard to shake off her guilt and nervousness. She also knew that this inn was far from appropriate for a small child to leave. "It's only temporary, I'll find a place to live for all of us," she answered firmly with a smug look in her eyes. "Leave the child to me, Rose, and your burden will be reduced by one." "Give up? Didn't you ever want him, why do you suddenly want Kenzie so much now?" Rose made a cynical noise. She didn't want Kenzie to

"Mommy …." Kenzie ran over to Rose, sitting leisurely on the apartment's balcony."Hey, Honey." Rose hugged and kissed the top of Kenzie's head. "Are you satisfied playing in the park?"Kenzie nodded in response to Rose's question. The little boy who is now five years old looks taller and more intelligent. He kissed Rose's belly, which was now getting more prominent."How old is sister, now Mom?" Questions that never get tired of saying every day."Seven months and twenty days, Big Brother." Rose smiled in amusement as she felt Kenzie's tiny hands caress h

"Then I'll just hug..."Since a month ago, Robert was back to normal, he never stopped torturing Rose in bed games. The man seemed to have an extra passion that

Rose was surprised to hear the words of a female doctor who had just come out of the operating room. She did not find the slightest lie in the beautiful face. The woman's face looks red with teary eyes."Complications? What do you mean? Did something bad happen?" asked Rose trying to be calm."Sorry, something happened on the operating table."Rose looked at the look on the female Doctor's face, she waited for the Doctor to finish her explanation. Seeing that the female Doctor was silent, Rose became dizzier and annoyed with curiosity."What happened to my husban

Rose sat nervously in front of the operating room. She knew she shouldn't have to worry, but she couldn't control the anxiety. The woman continued to indulge in prayers for the operation to run smoothly.She remembered the events of a few days ago, when they had all gathered at the Millers' residence. It was clear to see the happiness on the faces of the family when they saw that she was getting more and more intimate with Robert, the family's first son.However, Rose was again surprised by something she didn't know. Robert's secret shocked the whole family. The reason the man had surgery today."So, how do you guys plan when Kenzie will have a sister?" Michae

Rose woke up in Robert's arms. Her eyes blinked slowly, looking down at the strong hands wrapped around her waist. The warmth on her bare back pressed against Robert's chest, realizing that it wasn't all a dream.Rose's memory surfed at a pleasure she had never felt before, embarrassed at the sigh that escaped her lips uncontrollably. They spent the night in love, only pausing for a moment to enjoy dinner."Does this mean I've become a real wife?" whispered Rose quietly.The alarm clock sounded, signaling Robert's time to get ready for work. Rose tried to reach for the alarm to turn it off, but Robert's hand blocked her movement. The woman could not move freel

Rose caught her breath slowly in the car. She stared at himself in the rearview mirror for a moment. Before going downstairs, the woman decided to apply a little powder and colored moisturizer on her lips, the strawberry scent was refreshing.Rose controlled the pounding in her heart. She took several deep breaths before getting out of the car and heading for the big hospital.She walked with her whole body shaking. The pounding in her heart grew louder as her feet got closer to the hospital lobby door. Rose was at a loss about what to say when she met Robert later."Hey, Robert, I'm sorry …, ah that's too soon. Hey, Robert has lunch, let's eat together

Whether it was a code or not, Rose didn't care. The smell of a sweat from the not-so-big criminal behind her was powerful. Beads of effort that might have appeared due to tension were visible on the man's hands. Rose almost threw up because of it.Rose mustered up the courage and let go of her disgust. She opened her mouth and pointed her fangs at the fur-covered man's arm. Rose bit him as hard as she could, venting the anger caused by Robert's words."Aaa, Damn Woman!" The man screamed in pain.Rose's bite was strong enough, making it not easy to move her hand to stab a sharp pen and hurt Rose.

"Stay away from Rose or the world will know you're the man who almost got Romeo deported and Kenzie nearly dumped."Robert hissed furiously. It was clear that he hated it and refrained from teaching Sebastian. A strong aura of anger radiated from the man's entire body. Seeing Sebastian not showing the slightest hint of guilt, his eyes lit up."You accuse me of being jealous? Are you going to use this slander to stop Rose from liking me?" Sebastian flashed a mocking smile."I have evidence for that. You think I'll keep quiet when it comes to other people's lives, let alone the future of my biological child?" Robert growled, seeing that Sebastian was a master of
