Rosette's POV.

The next day, I came downstairs to meet Damon setting the table, he was making breakfast and so I offered to help.

There was no sign of my mother around so I figured she already left for work.

Last night, I felt bad for what happened, especially with the way I ran upstairs leaving her and Damon. I'm sure she had questions and Damon had to face it alone.

I was responsible for all this, I kept putting Damon in the most awkward situations and still expected him not to react.

I don't know how long I have been standing at the foot of the stairs until Damon called my attention.

"Rose, why are you standing there?" He asked, pulling me out of my thoughts as my eyes locked with his.

He looked calm this morning, as small bangs of his hair fell to the sides of his face as his lips curled into a smile.

"Good morning Damon," I greeted walking towards the table, the aroma of freshly baked banana bread hit my nostrils and my stomach grumbled in response.

"Hungry?" Damon asked ushering

    Damon's POV I had just finished my early morning run, when I got a call from Kara, inviting me over to watch Rose as something impromptu came up for her.Although we had a previous arrangement, Kara would be leaving soon with her dance academy and I would have to step in fully, but that nothing prepared me for the sudden call.But I had no choice, this was an opportunity and I intend to use it to the fullest.On getting to the house, Kara was ready to leave, she just showed me the kitchen and told me to figure out the rest.So I made breakfast. Not with high expectations but seeing the smile on her lips as she gobbled down the food, made me smile.Compared to the last time Rose saw me, I could sense the aura of acceptance around her and I was so glad for the people around us."May I ask something?" I started again.Rose froze for a second as she glared at me, dropping her meatloaf on the plate. "Sure""What would you like for lunch?" I asked, smiling at her.Rose's eyes widened as sh

  • One Hundred Days with My Step-Father.   Breakfast With Him

    Rosette POVThe next morning, I woke up to the sound of soft country music playing downstairs, the smell of black coffee wafted through the air.My brows deepened as I walked down the stairs, wondering what must have gotten into Kara this early morning. On getting to the foot of the stairs, my eyes darted towards the entrance of the kitchen and the smile on my lips fell.There was a huge figure behind the stove, flipping the pan like he owned the kitchen while humming to the music as he swayed lightly on his toes.The audacity!Immediately I stormed towards the radio turning it off and I marched into the kitchen."Who the hell are you?" I questioned with my arms crossed.Upon hearing my voice, the man turned slowly facing me, and my eyes widened in shock.It was Damon.I took a step back in fear as I opened my mouth to speak but no words came out.I mean what could I say?"I'm sorry I didn't mean to wake you up" he started, turning off the stove with a small smile on his face.I lowe

    Rosette's POV There.I finally admitted it.Because after everything has been said and done, the only thing that truly mattered was his presence."I know baby," Kara said, hugging me even before I got any chance to protest as I broke down into tears."What do I do now Kara? I'm so confused.." I confessed in between tears as Kara pulled me back slowly."No...I don't think you are confused Rose, my heart says you know the right thing to do and that is to search your heart, the answer is already there...""There is so much at stake Kara," I cut in, sniffling my tears, "My mom, the offer Nathan proposed and I accepted it because..you didn't see the way she looked at me Kara, her eyes were filled with so much hate and rage...my mom hates me" I drawled.At that second, the picture of her face flashed at the back of my mind as I remembered how the incident played out at the hospital.My mom was present when Nathan brought up the offer, and she didn't even blink twice even though I was pregn

    Damon's POV What was I really expecting, for her to jump into my arms and hug me? Definitely not.That was far from it and even way too much for my imagination, but that was fine.My only goal right now is to win her back in my life, it doesn't matter how long it takes, what has to be done will be done.I expected a sharp comeback from her but she kept mute, giving me one last look she turned away.Kara told me she wasn't sure of how she would react to seeing but I wouldn't know unless I try. So I decided to just decided to give it a chance."I know I came late, I know I'm the last person you want to see at the moment, but I want to fix everything Rose, if only you give me the chance" I said one more time.I thought she was going to ignore me and just walk away, but then she stopped and faced me."You shouldn't have come here Damon" "And why is that so?" I asked back, taking a step forward, even though I was cautious enough to leave space between us.Space.There has been so much s

    Rosette's POV "Ah, well..." I was still trying to say something when Kara took the phone from my hands, smiling oddly at me.Well that was all the confirmation I needed, Kara was hiding something and for someone who knew her more than anyone else, I was definitely going to find out what she was hiding."Okay, I have to go upstairs, the mike made me drowsy. I think I need to sleep again" I stated smiling at her."Listen Rose, it's a spam call...you...""You don't have to explain it to me Rose, it's your phone, you don't owe me an explanation, it's fine I promise" I added.Well two can play the game.Without waiting for her to say anything else, I headed upstairs.Immediately I got to my room, I closed the door tightly before reaching for the hospital's card in my bag. If Kara wasn't ready to give me the information, I might as well get it directly from the source."Hello, please I would like to make an inquiry, I know it's quite late but I would be grateful if you can" I said over the

    Rosette POVIt's been a long week of recovery and I was finally back home but for some feeling, something felt off.I felt better in a different way, like someone very special to me was close to me. A sense of fullness dwelled in my heart as I stared at the sunset while warming my hands with the hot cup of tumeric milk Kara handed over to me before she went upstairs to shower.I made a mental note to book a proper vacation for Kara once I'd delivered my baby. Even more than me she deserves it so much.No matter how much I thank her, I just don't feel it was enough, but a vacation will do, we have enough money to cover for that.Different thoughts swirled in my mind but the one that lingered the most was the stranger who saved me at the hospital.The doctor told me that I had to undergo a blood transfusion, and that an old acquaintance of ours stepped in and donated blood for me but every time I asked Kara about the stranger, she dismissed it casually and I couldn't help but wonder
