A week has passed and Rosa was discharged from the hospital, Her father and mother insisted that she must stay with them during the recovery process, Rosa didn't want to go there, but she was forced anyway,
Rosa could not lift a finger without being asked if was alright, Or if anything was hurting her, The situation became unbearable to Rosa, But what else she can do but bear with it.
Rosa sat down on the bed looking around her, Being in her room brought back some memories, A good one's, Rosa smiled remembering the day she first came here, She was indeed fortunate to meet David and Elena, Only God knows what could happen to her if they didn't take her in.

Inside Leo bedroom, Leo was still sleeping, He supposed to be at work right now, But for unknown reasons, He was forced to take the day off by John.
Turning to the other side of the bed, Leo looked at the time to realize that it almost three in the afternoon. "I overslept." He mumbled to himself as he checked his phone, Going through his massages, He reserved a call from John. "Hello."
"It seems that you slept well, You should take more days off." John said.
"And what I do them, Just sleep, Anyway why are calling me at this time, Is Anna not with you?" Leo said as he got off the bed.
"No, She is here, Now enough about me, Rosa discharged from the hospital yesterday, And was brought to her parent's house." John said.
"Do you mean she is here?" Leo asked.
"Yes, Listen go and visit her." John said before he ended the call.

Rosa reserved a call from Anna, Telling her that they are going out to eat together, And she insisted that she wear the red dress that Anna bought to her as a gift last month.
"I don't know, I think I should change it." Rosa said, looking at herself in the mirror, To Rosa, the dress was very short, IT was above her knees.
"I'm going to kill you if you take it off." Anna said and hung up the phone.
"Babe don't you think that you were too harsh on her." John spoke as he slipped his hands underneath Anna shirt.
"No." Anna replied Kissing him on the lips.

Rosa sat in the leaving waiting for Anna to come, An hour has passed, and she still didn't come, While waiting for her Rosa started to feel sleepy, She was about to take a short nap when the doorbell rang. "Finally." Rosa said as she went to open the door.
And who she saw was not Anna, IT was Leo, Rosa felt that her head started to feel dizzy. "Leo." She called his name a bit surprised to see him.
"Good evening Rosa." Leo spoke, Barley, holding himself from not pulling her into his arms.
Taking a deep breath, Rosa composed herself." Good evening Leo, Come in" Though her voice seemed normal, her heart was pounding fast in her chest.
The both of them sat on the sofa next to each other, Leo noticed how Rosa was pulling her dress trying to hide her exposed milky legs.
"How do feel now?" Leo asked touching the banged on the back of her head gently to not hurt her.
" It's getting better, Thank you for asking." She replied
"I was very worried when John told me what happened to you that night, I'm sorry that I caused you to be sad."
Rosa looked at him when she heard his words, unwillingly a teardrop escaped from her eyes, Betraying her, It was like something had broken deep down inside her when he said these words.
Leo felt more guilty when he saw the way she was looking at him, She wasn't crying, But the tears didn't stop from falling. "You could have called once in while, Or texted me, Not leaving me hanging not knowing what am I to you." Her words were like a knife stabbing his heart.
"I'm sorry I shouldn't have spoken to you with this way." Rosa felt embarrassed to speak to him with this way.
Leo didn't say anything, He only pulled her into his arms slowly not wanting to hurt her.
