Damian's POV

I leave my baby girl's room with a dreamy smile that will not leave my face anytime soon. I decided to take a very quick shower so I can be with her as soon as possible.

I feel really angry, guilty, sad and what not, when I think about what she had to go through. She had to go through all the physical, mental and sexual abuse, all alone. She had no one to talk, no shoulder to cry and no one to hug her and tell her that everything will be alright. but I am very proud of her that she never gave up. She worked hard and became the strongest woman I know.

But I know that I will not be able to remove the feeling of regret anytime soon. Only if I would have come back earlier, only if I would have taken her away with me. I am sure my parents would have helped her or may have even adopted her. But no. instead, I completely forgot about her. How can I do that when I claim to love her. I know, I don't deserve her but I am too selfish to let her go. I need her and I need only her. She is my life line and I will not be able to live without her.

I am walking to the kitchen to get breakfast. I hope my Leena is there already. I walk into the kitchen but to my disappointment, I see Oliver, Elizah, and Jackson sitting on the island and having their coffee while Amanda is cooking.

"Ahh. Good morning lover boy." Elizah exclaims with a toothy grin as soon as he sees me.

Oliver gets off the island and he gets a little serious. "How is she? Is she ok? Is she still upset?" He asks with so much worry.

"What are you talking about, Oliver? Didn't you hear them laughing earlier." Amanda looks at me with a smirk but I ignore her.

"She is fine. I told her everything that happened between Maya and I and I also told her about me being her childhood friend. And guess what? She forgave me and accepted me." I say with a huge grin.

"Boy!! He is so whipped." Elizah rolls his eyes.

"Well, I am and I am not ashamed to accept it." I say shrugging my shoulder and they all look at me with wide surprised eyes.

"You know, you must be the first one to openly accept it" Jackson says.

"I can't deny the truth. I have found my happiness after ten years and I am not going to hide it." I say sincerely and they all give me a genuine smile.

Oliver gives me a very tight hug. "Thank you man. She deserves the happiness too." I pat his shoulder.

He breaks the hug and looks at me. "I guess, she told you everything?"

"Yes and I must thank you for everything you have done for her. Thank you for being there for her when I couldn't."

"She is my sister. I must do that for her." She says, giving me a very genuine smile which I of course return.

"So when are you asking her out?" Amanda asks.

"I am going to meet her uncle and aunt this Friday. They are not her real uncle and aunt but she admires them a lot because they supported her a lot and helped her to set up her business so I will make the best first impression and then I will ask her for a date." I explain my plans.

They all look at me with a knowing smile but Oliver has a really shocked face and looks like he is lost in some thoughts.

"Uncle and aunt? Do you know their name?" Oliver asks and he looks skeptical. What's going on in his mind?

"Umm.. no. I mean I asked her but she just told me to wait. They want her to get married with their son but she doesn't want that so she asked me to be his fake boyfriend." I explain the situation.
