All Chapters of CASA ROMA: Chapter 21 - Chapter 28

The meeting was scheduled at 9:00 AM in the Vista Building. It was located not so far from the hotel they are staying. Serene woke up early to make breakfast, yes she do home cook for the day. It was not that she don't prefer the food in the hotel but her stomach wants a more specific food with her own recipe. She's not into foods made in other's kitchen, unless it is cooked by Maricar. “You are awake. I did a quick grocery earlier to make breakfast, Sir. I think it would be better if I cook, so I hope you'll like it.” Darrem just woke up, of course to brush his teeth and comb his healthy hair. That is his morning routine. He dried his hand using a clean towel and nodded. “Thanks. You are using the pocket money I gave to you in your bank account right?” Serene nodded. Darrem gives $100 dollars pocket cash for all his workers. It is for errands like this. He doesn't want to be asked for money when they are in travel or work. He doesn't also want his workers to pay for the expenses d

Serene woke up early as the sun rise. It is not because she is excited, she just can't sleep properly the whole night. It keeps on whispering on her ear: the idea that Darrem actually likes her. She cooked their breakfast, and kill her time reading the recipe book. Darrem who is as anticipated as Serene, just gargled his mouth wash and left his room. He smiled as soon as he sees Serene. “You're early,” he greeted and took an empty seat.Serene was still nervous. Meeting his eyes, is a total torture to her heart. She wasn't high schooler to feel this kind of affection. She should manage this like an adult, but it was her first to receive a confession as straight as that. “You want coffee?” she instead ask. She has to fix herself. She was hired to serve him, and not become comfortable around and got no use. Darrem nodded, but with a sudden hesitation. “You know you don't have to work for me that way. I don't want people to think I'm enslaving you or something.” He truly cared for Se

“It would be better if the maids are still unaware of our relationship,” Serene said and gracefully placed the tea on Darrem's desk.“Whatever you think is convenient,” Darrem replied. It's been days after the trip, and they haven't spoke with anyone in the house about the thing that is going on between them. The two maid seems clueless. Nothing really change between them. Serene was not fond of kinship and she don't show her affection so much so as Darrem. “Do you have plans this weekend? Let's go on a date again.” Serene smiled. She likes the idea. “Depends on what kind of date it was.” She pressed her lips, enjoying the dreamy sensation whenever she is with Darrem. He closed his laptop and lifted his eyes to Serene. ”Swimming is not a bad idea.”Serene nodded. She's been here for months yet she haven't tasted the salt of the sea of the island. “But I'm not gonna wear any revealing swim wear.”“Too bad, you can't swim with your maid uniform. Just wear something that is comfortabl

Serene was awakened by the loud ring of her phone. She pulled the eye mask to the top of her head, and grabbed the phone that is just next to her. She didn't check the caller rather speak to it in a grown. “Who is this?” she asked to the other line. A voice came, feminine.“Vanna. This is Vanna, Serene.” Her lids alerted, pulling her body up. She cannot remember the moment she lend her number to her half-sister. How did she know her phone number?Vanna cleared her throat. “You need to come here. In the house. Dad wants to see you.” Her tone was alarming, for she cannot find any cheerness in it. Vanna never speak to her with this kind of tone. She knew something was up. She wanted to aks why but hold herself. Traveling back and meeting her Dad and his family is something she cannot say a good thing. Despite her inward refusal, Serene still gave her an okay.The call had totally sank her mood. She just descend the stairs and brewed her coffee. Everyone in the house including Maricar
