Rosette's POV

"Diego" Kara muttered.

"Diego? What happened to Diego? Is he here?" I asked, swiveling in my seat, searching around for Diego.

"Silly girl, I mean the person I have been texting, the one you want to know is Diego"

"Diego?"

"Yes, Diego, Damon's friend, I met him at your house that day," Kara added as she lowered her eyes while looking away.

It felt like my brain stilled for a minute, I just couldn't understand what she was saying.

"Why do you look that way?" Kara asked again.

"Cause I'm trying to process what you just said and I'm sorry I'm having quite a hard time understanding it" I replied, with a cold tone as my eyes narrowed looking at her.

"Don't give me that look Rose, he came on me and I only responded to him"

"What do you even mean by he came on you? I don't understand any of that, tell me clearly what's happening?" I questioned with a frown on my face.

"Okay, so listen, remember the other day when you came around, I told you I met him in a mall and we exchange

    Rosette POV "Something like that" I answered, scratching the back of my neck."Friends are a bit difficult sometimes, right?""Very difficult but we can't do without them right?" I threw back at him."Well I think it's very possible to do without them" Rowland answered, picking you the pair of chopsticks that were supposed to be for Kara as then he picked up a sushi.I actually ordered a small quantity because we had no plans on staying for long and I just wanted us to have something to munch on while talking about whatever."Don't tell me you are worse than me?" I questioned, doing the same."I suppose, the thing is, it is easier to live life without depending on anyone, or what people can do or not do for you," Rowland stated."My mother is going to hate you for real, she doesn't believe it that because I don't socialize much even though I'm a bit crazy, she thinks I'm depressed, but I just think dealing with people can be stressful, look at Kara now, she called me out and now she

    Damon's POV It's been three bloody hours and yet there was no sign of Rose anywhere, I kept checking my phone to see if she would text me or even call at least, but I got nothing.I was tense. Susan could return anytime from now and Rose wasn't back. What was I supposed to say to her as she entrusted her daughter's safety into my hands?I only let Rose out, because she was meeting with Kara and she promised to be back in an hour.Fortunately she gave me the location of the bar and so I decided to go there to see what was going on.I was a bit worried because Rose knows she doesn't have the permission to stay out so late and so what could be keeping her?In twenty minutes I got to the bar and immediately I entered the bar, I saw Rose in the arms of another man.For a second, all rational thoughts flew out of my head and the first thing I wanted to do was pounce on the guy.But I held myself back as my eyes locked with that of Rose, and with the way she leaned on him, I figured that sh

    Damon's POV."Okay I won't have anything else to drink tonight, but you need it right?" Rose muttered slowly."The only thing I need right now is some valid explanation for what happened over there" I stated, placing a piece of salmon on her pasta."Okay, but I need you not to react to whatever I'm about to tell you? Please" Rose begged, tucking a few strands of her hair behind her ears.My brows deepened as I stared at her, what could she possibly want to say and not want my reaction to it?"Go on" I urged."Thank you for bringing me back home," she said. A frown crept its way to my face as I glared at her."Go straight to the point would you?" I threw at her. Rose's face fell as she lowered her eyes, I know I sounded harsh and cold but at this moment I couldn't control my tone at all."I didn't mean to get drunk, I was just annoyed at what Kara did and Rowland came over to make me feel better and we got carried away, I just...""That bitch" I cursed underneath my breath banging my

    Damon's POV."Thank you for the meal" Rose said as soon as she was done eating, breaking the silence ever since Susan came in."Yeah" I answered.She dropped her plates in the sink and then turned on the tap, "So, what are you going to do about what I just told you?" "You want me to do something?" I threw back at her."I don't know, maybe Kara will think about everything I say and then she will realize everything I just need to give her space and time" Rose answered."You indulge Kara a little bit too much, you have had a long day, you need to rest, Goodnight" I said to her."I.." Rose paused as she turned off the water, "Okay" she finally replied and then walked away.I sat in silence for thirty minutes, putting everything together in my head, with my wine as company, but I was more in my thoughts than drinking out of the bottle.I felt stuck. I couldn't go upstairs, Susan was there and I just needed some space.It was already too late, and I couldn't go to Diego's penthouse at this

    Rosette's POV."Arghhh" I groaned, staring at my reflection in the vanity. I woke up this morning with a slight headache and red puffy eyes.The headache was as a result of my multiple shots last night but it would have been worse if Damon didn't use the cold water treatment on me. I let out a small breath throwing my head over my shoulders as the events from last night replayed all over again in my head.One way or the other, I know that Damon was upset with me and because of my mother's sudden arrival, I couldn't explain everything to Damon, most importantly Rowland's involvement in the whole thing.I picked up my phone and dialed Kara's number but it was switched off. I hope that by now, she will probably be calm and see reasons with me.Diego will never leave Evelyn and her child for her, but why would he flirt with Kara and lead her on?I groaned for the second time, running my hand through my hair as I rolled my eyes. I brought out my planner for the day, but there was nothing

I thought it wouldn't mean anything until she started pestering me.""That's not what it looks like here Diego, you entertained her for a while and it seems she got it all in her head" I countered reading the messages on his phone.When I got to Diego's house, he was sober and waiting with a cup of black coffee for me, and so immediately I got down to the business of the day.I told him everything Rose told me and demanded answers from him, and then he went ahead to hand over his phone to me so I could through the messages directly.So at the beginning, it was casual talk, Kara reaching out and just exchanging pleasantries until Kara started pushing forward."I gave her my attention for twenty hours and she fell in love? That's insane, look read properly at a point she was starting to pester me and I had to tell her about Evelyn, I thought she would deter but she was quite persistent."

    Rosette's POV.It's been a long time since I had so much fun, doing the little things.Little things, like getting my hair washed and trimmed at the same time, getting my nails done all with my mom.My mom was almost done with her nails when she received a call from the office, calling her back to the office and so she had to go back while I returned home alone.She begged me to come along with her but I was already spent for the day, plus I was yet to study at all, so we said our good-byes and went our separate ways.When I got back home, Damon wasn't back and so I decided to study in the kitchen while having my ice-cream.After some time, my phone rang, it was a call for Kara and with all excitement I answered it."Hey Kara" I chirped, closing my textbook as I dropped my pen as well, giving her call utmost importance."What kind of a person are you Rose?" came her harsh reply as the smile on my face dropped instantly."Excuse me?""You heard me right!

    Damon's POV."What do you mean by that?" Rose questioned flatly."After I gave her all the warning, that's exactly what she told me, that she knows that there is something going on between us" I answered, taking a spoon out of Rose's ice cream."I don't understand how you can be so laid back about this..." Rose started again, her voice laced with dread, panic written all over her face."Do you believe that? She is only saying it to get to us Rose, all you have to do is ignore her and stay away from her," I replied, savoring the flavor of the ice cream.I couldn't remember the last time I had ice cream, and here I was casually eating from her tub like it was my favorite snack.Rose was so lost in her thoughts that she didn't even notice this. "What exactly did you say to her?" Rose asked again."Something along the lines of her being a liar and saying rubbish, but we need to be very careful, extra careful" I added again."Will that solve anything?" She asked again."For now, yes. You

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

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

    Rosette POV "Thank you so much, for picking me up, the food and the clothes, it means a lot to me" I said, picking up the plates.I wanted to leave after Rowland returned with his 'wild animal' but he insisted that I wait till the rain stopped and so we had dinner with the burnt sauce.I offered to make a new one, but apparently he was out of ingredients, and so we chugged the food down with zero choices."You look good in it though," Rowland answered."Really? 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

    Rosette POV I walked, my feet carrying me forward on autopilot, the rain poured down around me and yet I couldn't feel it. I was numb, lost in a sea of my thoughts trying to comprehend what just happened.I never imagined Damon would do what he just did, one minute he was accepting me and the next, he was pushing me away, Forever.He doesn't want me.Not today or even tomorrow. 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? She was sad, shattered and I don't even know.Tears pricked at the corner of my eyes and I let them fall. I mean what was the point of holding it back? No one could see meI was alone

    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,

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

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!

    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

They were still at the ice cream parlour if I would be able to meet up.In this state, it was the best thing for me rather than facing my mom. I knew something was off in the morning before I left for school, I just wished I paid more attention and not ignored it like I did.In less than twenty minutes, I arrived at the parlour, and through the glass walls, I could see Caleb and Rowland, on a table, scanning the menu as they said something to each other.I took a deep breath in, while trying to fix my expression. I needed to come up with something because they will definitely ask questions and I had to give them no reason to suspect.I ran my hand through my hair, while reapplying my lipgloss. Just as I took the next step, I winced in pain.I had completely forgotten how sore I was considering how rough Damon took me, and that was going to disorganize my
