I looked at the clock and found it’s already midnight but no one came back. My eyes dropped in heaviness and slumber as the day's exhaustion began to rush in inside me. Before I know I found my eyes slowly closing as I drift off to sleep.

I didn’t know what time it was, when I found myself cocooned in a warm blanket. I wrapped it tighter around me feeling the heat and the comfort oozing from it. I peeped out from the blanket and my eyes directly went to the kitchen which has it’s light open.

Was Liliana or Damien back?

I pulled myself out and looked towards the kitchen carefully and found Damien trotting inside there heating up his food in the microwave. My eyes fell on his broad t-shirt cladded back and I had to close my legs to seize the desire pooling in.

It had never happened before.

I saw his strong muscular arms working on his food and grabbed the glass of water. Everything he does brings such unholy desires in me that I should be ashamed of myself.

I shook my head getting rid of these thoughts. He obviously didn’t see me like that and here I was lusting over my saviour.

I tiptoed towards the kitchen, feeling myself hungry. As if he sensed my presence and looked up from the food he had taken out from the oven.

His eyes ran over me and I found myself nervous and conscious of the PJs I’m wearing. They’re basically shorts. Flower printed. I could feel his heated gaze over me but I tried to avoid it.

“Where were you? And Liliana?” I asked him, grabbing a bottle of water from the fridge. He turned and I found him walking towards me and stood in front.

Before I know I found his big calloused hands over my stomach. “Did you have the dinner?” Blood rushed to my cheeks and I could feel the embarrassment and nervousness I was feeling.

Oh Lord what was he doing!

I shook my head at him as he let out a sigh. “Lets have it.” He heated another plate of food along with his and brought it on the table. We settled on them.

Silence fell and I couldn’t dare to speak anything. “Lily will not be here for few months.” I looked up at him surprised and confused. But she didn’t tell any such thing.

Noticing my confusion he spoke again. “Aria broke her left ankle today and she had to rush in there.” He added. “ Aria, her adopted daughter.” My eyes widened at her words. What!

“How? When? Is she better now? What about Lily?” I couldn’t control myself as I asked him questions all at once.

For the first time I saw a flash of grief and pain pass his eyes before if was gone. “She fell down the stairs in school and then they called up.” Oh no why does this happen with such small kids.

“Can I visit her tomorrow?” His eyes softened and he kept his hand on my shoulder. “As you wish.” I nodded feeling better to know I could meet them.

After the dinner I washed the dishes in the sink, despite having the dishwasher because I still don’t know how to use them. I didn’t dare to ask Damien, I just couldn’t bring myself to speak first. It’s been after so long I’m talking this much.

I walked back to the couch to take the blanket, when I saw Damien sitting there. “How is your leg now?” I smiled a little at him.

“It's better. I have also went for a job search.” He nodded, but I couldn’t see any reaction at all. He didn’t speak and I felt he didn’t want to say the words. “I will try to leave soon.” At my words his head shot up, and I saw a different emotion crossing his face which I couldn’t point out.

Not knowing what else to do, I grabbed the blanket and went back to my room after mumbling him a “Goodnight.” Which surprisingly he reciprocated.

“Good night.”
