love finds its way around

Chapter 15

Derrick walks out of the ward after transferring blood to Carmela since his own matched.

"So you have a daughter" he starts looking at me

I walk up to him with a nod

"And my blood matches hers" he continues

I nod again, he shoots me a questioning look

I sigh lowering my head to look at the ground "you're her father, I'm the person you raped at the club that night and in return I had a child and the child is Carmela.....I'm really sorry I didn't tell you, it's just that you're getting married and I didn't want to ruin it" I explain but I don't hear any response

I look up to see Derrick barely an inch away from me before I could calculate what was going on he pulls me into a hug resting his head on my shoulders

"Do you know with this there's no way I'm getting married to Sonia anymore" he whispers on my shoulders

I nod relaxing into his embrace, I take in his familiar warmth

"So we don't have to worry about her anymore" he says

I nod, he pulls away cupping my cheeks in his hands. I smile at his expression, he seems happy

"Derrick" a familiar voice calls, I turn to see his grandma I turn back to him

"Did you call her?" I ask

"Nope"

"I rushed when your manager said you are in the hospital" she says checking him "you're supposed to be preparing for your wedding why are you here if you're not hurt" she looks at me and Leigh, she walks to Leigh looking at Carmela in Leigh's arms

"Who's child is this, she's beautiful" she coos carrying Carmela

"Mine grandma, she's my daughter" he says smiling at me

"Yours? Then who's the mother" she asks

Derrick puts his hands around my shoulders

"Oh good then at least you'd be with someone that's not Sonia" she says, she leans close to Derrick and I "that girl Sonia really lacks manners even though she's calm and oh I'm a great grandmother now" she smiles at me "don't explain how it happened the child is beautiful" she winks at me.

I didn't know Derrick's grandma could talk this much.

"So let's take the child out of this drug smelling environment" she says walking out with Leigh and Carmela

Derrick turns to me "so are you still going to say what about my wedding?"

I smile nudging him

He puts his arms around my shoulders pulling me close to him "Grandma would take care of my dad if that's what you're worried about"

I smile, life has taken a different turn for me. Out of the bad things good comes out from it. I never thought things would turn out this way, I thought happiness was over for me. Derrick ended up being my happiness in disguise. I should teach Carmela this when she's older

This is it! The end.

I know I didn't end the book well. I mean who ends a story like this but please tell me is the book okay....I already said it was going to be short.

My next book would be better than this one. Please look out for it.

I might drop an epilogue....as the spirit leads.

See you in my next book!

Love proxy.
