I was able to get a job in an hotel.

We got an order and I decided to go deliver the order.
It is wine.

I got to the door and knocked
” Come in”
I entered.

” Sir, here is your..

I couldn’t finish my statement.
Our eyes met.
I looked at him at him shocked.
The drinks fell from my hands.
He looked at me shocked.

Nathaniel?

He stood up.
” Rose” he called shocked.

Tears welled up in my eyes.

” Rose” he called moving towards me.

I looked at him and ran out of the room.

” Rose” i heard him called running after me.

I got outside.
He held my hand from behind.
I didn’t turn to look at him.

” Rose” he called.

Tears rolled down my cheeks.

He came to my front but I looked away.

He held my cheeks and cleaned my tears.

I looked at him.

” Rose, am sorry” he said and hugged me tightly

I cried on his shoulder.

We disengaged from the hug.
We stare at each other.
” Am sorry please forgive me” he said cleaning my tears.

” Will you please forgive me? He asked.

I smiled and nodded my head.

” I know I have hurt you a lot but I have realized my mistakes” he said holding my cheek.

I looked at him.
” I.. I ..have forgiven you” i said.

” Please rose, will you come home with me now? He asked.

” I..i..I

” Don’t say no please, mum is very angry with me, even the kids refuse to speak to me, until I bring you back home” he said.

I looked at him.
” Please rose” he pleaded.

I smiled.
” I will go home with you” i said.

” Really? He beamed

I nodded my head

He held my hand.
” Please rose, promise me you won’t ever leave me and the kids ever again” he said looking into my eyes.

I smiled.
” I promise” i said.

He kssed my hand.
I looked at him surprised.

” Nath..

” I missed you rose” he said and hugged me.

People are watching.
I tried to free from the hug but he held me tightly.

‘ Nathan..

” I know people are watching but I don’t care” he said kssing my hair.

I smiled.
I hugged him back tightly
” I missed you too” i said.

We broke the hug.
He smiled.
I also smiled back at him.

” Isn’t that Nathaniel Raymond? We heard.

I turned.
People are gathered.

I gasped.
” Who is she?

” Isn’t she the same woman at the kids school?

” What are they doing?

” Are they really married?

People took their phone taking pictures.
I hide my face in his chest.

He laughed.

” Come on let’s go” he said holding my hand.

I looked at him.
He winked.
I smiled.

We got to the car.
The driver opened the door.
We got in.

He brought out his phone from his pocket.
” Sam, cancel the meeting, i won’t be available anymore” he said.

” And also go to my room and bring my things, am heading back home” he said and hung up.

I looked at him.
” You are here for a meeting? I asked.

” Yes”

” Then why did you cancelled it? I asked.

” Because I found you. You are more important than any meeting” he said with a smile.

” Nathan.. I need to get my things” I said.

” You don’t need to worry about it” he said.

” Take us home” he said.

The driver drove off.
He placed my head on his shoulder.
I smiled.
He laughed.

We finally got home.
We got out from the car.
I looked at the Mansion.
I really missed it.
I really missed the kids.

How will the kids feel ?

” Unless you bring mum home before we can talk to you” Mabel said.

” Where is mum? Angel yelled.

” Am here” rose said walking in.
I turned and smile.

” Mum? Mabel called and ran to her.
She squat to her level and hugged her tightly.
Angel only stood staring at them.
Tear dropped from rose eyes.
” Am sorry princess” rose said.

She broke the hug.
And kssed her forehead.

He smiled coming inside.
” You got this? I asked.
” Yes I did”
” But when and how? I arched my brow.

” Don’t worry about it” he winked.
I smiled.
” But how sure are you that it is my size? I asked.

” Am very sure, why don’t you put in on” he said.
