Rosette POV

Just before I could reply, Rowland intervened, he told Caleb how not good an idea that was considering the fact that Damon was sick, my mom won't be comfortable at the dinner and all that.

Caleb apologized for how insensitive he was about the issue and I just waved it off.

I was so glad that he was present at this moment, because if it was just Caleb and I, I doubt I would have had a way out.

I thanked Rowland a million times in my head and my heart that I almost blurted it out but I just held it in. I made a mental note to thank him afterwards.

After we were done with our snacks, it was already late and so we went our separate ways, Caleb in his car, Rowland booked a ride and I drove home.

*****

Immediately I pushed the main door open, I was greeted with total darkness, both from the kitchen and the living room and so I concluded that my mom was also out.

I hung my coat by the door side and then placed my key on the tray while turning on the light.

Immediately I heard he

My hands dropped from her shoulders."I was pregnant Rose and I aborted the baby because I didn't want it and last night, Damon found out, he saw the reports and he got angry, he didn't give me a chance to explain and he left the house...I don't know where he's right now and I have been sending him messages, all I want is for him to talk to me...""You did what mom?" The words slipped out my mouth in shock.I just couldn't believe what I was hearing, I mean I refused to."Do you realize how absurd you are sounding right now mom? How could you do that?" I shouted at her, rising from the couch."Do you think it's easy to raise a child, Rose? I'm getting everything I want right now and the baby would...""Hinder you from your progress? And you didn't think it was necessary to talk to him about it?" I shot at her."I don't need a goddamn lecture from you Rose!

I asked again."Yes" she added, a smile working its way to her face."Alright then"I logged into our netflix account and with the minutes the show was up, we both sat on the bed, our backs resting against the headboard as we watched the series."Do you want some snacks? Can I grab us ice cream or something?" I asked again, thirty minutes into the first episode."No please, don't go anywhere I don't need anything, just stay right here" she replied, wrapping her ha

    Rosette's POV "No, you don't get to say that to me, you don't get to ask me to leave because I only came here for you and no one else" I fired back at him.."No, you didn't come here for me, you came to fulfill your duties as Susan's daughter and no one else, why can no one see what she has done to me?" Damon countered, banging his fist on the wall.A small lump grew in my throat as I swallowed hard, I closed my eyes, hiding the tears that threatened to fall and then I took a small step forward.Without knowing what to expect, was he going to push me away or accept me? I couldn't tell.I couldn't read his eyes today, unlike every other day, just by looking at his eyes, I could tell his emotions, I could see whatever he wanted to say but today, Damon put up a wall between us. In his eyes and his heart."Whatever my mom did was wrong, so wrong and I don't support her one bit okay? I..she is broken Damon, and I cannot see her this way, it hurts me seeing you both like this and I'm torn,

He didn't bother to stop me, he watched me walk away without a single care of the world.Just like earlier.Today I could see the line clearly and I regretted crossing it over and over again..And now we are all broken.Damon.My mum and I. Yet the responsibility to fix this somewhat broken relationship rested on my shoulders.But what do I do?How can I fix it?Damon was adamant, angry and buttered about everything and my mom?

I was going to ask who they belong to cause they look so girly to be yours" I added."It should be Rosa or Lisa, I don't know...""What did you just say?" I asked, freezing on the spot as I turned to face him.Rowland wore a blank expression, sipping from his glass of water as his brows deepened like he was in deep thoughts."Wait a minute, don't tell me, you... Of fuck me." I burst into laughter moving into the kitchen while shaking my head.I threw the plates into the sink, washed my hands and then dragged the top i was wea

Also, Rowland had this serious expression while driving and I didn't want to distract him.In less than twenty minutes, my house came in view and my heart beat increased tremendously. I tried not to overthink the situation and hoped that my mom was still asleep.The lights were still off, which could mean two things, either good news or not.I hopped off the bike while removing the helmet and then handed it over to Rowland."You don't need to walk me to the house," I said."You didn't even let me offer, can't wait to get rid of me?" He threw back at me."Are you serious right now? I woul

My mom's loud voice rang out as she descended the stairs.It was obvious that she was greatly pissed because of what I said to her earlier but repeating it in front of Damon?I raised my eyes to look at him as his brows deepened, looking across my shoulders. "Umm, you should come in," I said softly."I shouldn't have come here," he replied instead."But you are here already, right?""Who is it Rose? Why are you taking so much time?" Mom yelled again.I closed my eyes, shaking my head as I opened the door wider so she could see and keep her mouth shut."Da..mon?" She stuttered as she froze in her steps."Yes Damon" I added, stepping away from the door, as I ran my hand through my hair."Baby you are back, you are here" My mom said, her tone filled with disbelief."I'm here but you are about to

One thing was definitely sure and I shouldn't have come back.I took a quick sweep across the entire room, it was surprisingly clean, everything put together and nothing amiss.I sat on the edge of the bed, burying my head in my hands, as a soft sigh escaped my lips.Everything has been out of control ever since, I found out about Susan's recent deeds.I felt lost.Out of place and just disorganized. But she? She was even ready to go to work.Decked up like everything was normal.I let myself get carried away with all of Rose's emotional talks and I returned, which was a great mistake on my part."Can I come in?" I heard a voice, followed by a small knock on the door pulling me out of my thoughts.Before I could reply, the door opened even wider and Rose stepped in, carrying a tray of coffee and muffins, the aroma of the hot freshly brewed coffee hit my nostrils."Why are you here?" I asked,

Before I could complete my statement, Damon grabbed my arm, placing a finger on his lips as I went silent."Excuse me gentlemen, I will be right back" He said, pulling me out of the office.Once we were out, I found the courage to speak again, "Damon please, I didn't mean to ruin your

Rowland asked placing his hand on my shoulder."Yes" I managed to utter, but I was far from okay, I was suddenly so self aware as I continued looking around."So, what's the answer?" Rowland asked again."Can we leave here?" I countered, putting my phone back into the bag."Emm...is that like a yes?""No...that's like a we should leave now, we need to hurry" I answered grabbing his hands as I started walking fast."Rose..calm down" Rowland called after me but I didn't stop, I kept pulling him and just as we got to the gate he suddenly stopped."Come on Rowland, this is important please..." I said, turning to face him."You know I would go anywhere with you right? But I have a class and I cannot miss it" Rowland stated, taking me by surprise."You have

He asked with a small smile on his face, so that the professor doesn't suspect anything."We have nothing to talk about please" I replied, placing my hand over his as I stylishly removed his hand."You don't have to do this Rose, you know...""Is everything okay Rose? Rowland you can come in, I have been waited for you" the professor interrupted saving me unknowingly."Everything is fine, I will take your leave now" I answered before he could speak up and then I walked out of the office.I sighed, feeling relieved as I walked out of the building, I know avoiding an issue is never th

"Sure""Is everything okay with you? I mean with work and all, you have been way too busy and engaged with it recently so..."Damon sighed, taking a deep breath as he dropped the bowl of chips in his hands, "Actually work is crazy but there's nothing you should be worried about" "Well, it's just that I have never seen you work so hard and you look worried mostly" I pointed out.Damon forced a smile as he walked closer to me, "I will handle everything, and that's enough about me, what are your plans for tomorrow?" He asked, tracing my cheeks with his thumb."Well...I was going to drop by at school, start my registration for the next semester and after that, mom and I are going to the dentist" I answered."Hmm

    Rosette POV.I kept tossing on the bed, endlessly, despite everything that has happened, for some reason I still couldn't sleep.I was thoroughly tired, but yet wide awake, the scene with my mom replaying over and over again in my head. Coupled with many others.The holiday was almost over, so was our pact with Damon. We had only two weeks and two days left.And with school resuming that means I will have to face Caleb and Rowland again. I already promised my mom that we are cool as friends, but it was far from it.Throughout the last semester, I spent half of it avoiding Kara. At some point, I avoided Caleb and now I was going to repeat it again?Exhausting.I wondered if he was also thinking about it the way the thought weighed in my mind.A small sigh escaped my lips as I sat up, turning the room lights on as I reached for my water bottle, only to discover that it was empty.A reason to go downstairs.I yawned, throwing my legs off the bed as I slipped my feet into my slippers, bef

    Rosette's POV "Hey baby, can I come in?" I heard my mother's voice, after about half an hour since I returned to my room."Yeahhh" I answered, sitting up while adjusting the bed covers.I spent the last thirty minutes trying not to think of whatever transpired downstairs as I busied my hands and mind by cleaning up the entire room.The door opened slightly as my mom walked in, her face dried and her eyes a bit red, a solid evidence of how much she had cried."What are you doing?" She asked, closing the door gently behind her."Nothing, just here" I answered, looking around."Are you hungry, should I heat up something for you?" She asked, sitting at the edge of the bed while smoothing her dress.An awkward tension crept its way into the room as an odd silence hung over us."Why is it always weird between us, I'm your mother I shouldn't be scared of you," My mother started again.A slight chuckle escaped my lips as I tossed a pillow towards her, "Why should you be scared of me?

I tried for months to hide this from Damon while contemplating if I was making the right decision or not.Only for Rose to walk in on me.And now they were both looking at me, like I was some sort of criminal and I hated how it made me feel."That makes no sense Susan, for what reason do you think he wants to be back in Rose's life? What if he wants you back?" Damon questioned."That's ridiculous, I don't have any feelings for Ronan, it's you I love, I love you Damon" I confessed, placing my hands on his chest, while pleading with my eyes."Susan....""I'm a mother Damon, everything I did, I did it as a mother, I only wanted stability in Rose's life, I just...""And what makes you feel like there is no stability in my life mom?
