I'm in the middle of a meeting when my phone starts to ring, I take my phone out of my pocket and see it's Rosie.
Why is she calling me she never calls me. I excuse myself from the meeting and answer the phone.
"Hello." I hear her choke back a sob and my heart instantly drops
"What happened? Are you okay?" I ask her
"Come pick me up," she says through her tears
"Where are you?"
"At the office"
"I'll be right there baby"
I hang up and head straight to my car.
What should have been a thirty-minute drive was actually a fifteen-minute drive. I get out of my car and head straight to Rosie's office. Once I get to her office, I see her laying down on the couch in the fetal position with tears streaming down her face.
My heart breaks seeing her like this. I walk over to her and lean down to her level and brush away some of her tears but it's no use because more just comes down her face.
"Baby what happened."
She starts crying harder. I pick her up and lay down on the couch and place her head on top of my chest and hug her to me.
"I'm here if you want to talk but for now, I'm just going to hold you in till you're ready," I tell her and place a kiss on the top of her head.
A few minutes later Rosie's crying starts to slow down, and she finally says, "He wants to take her away from me." My heart stops because she can't mean what I think she means.
"Who wants to take who away from you baby."
"Lilliana's dad wants custody of her," Rosie says as she starts crying again
"Shh it's okay," I tell her as I place more kisses on the top of her head and bring her closer to me
"He's not going to take her away from you okay." she nods her head
"Why don't I take you home to Lilliana how does that sound?"
"She's spending the night at my best friend's house."
"You want to spend the night at my place? She nods her head yes
We get up and Rosie grabs her stuff. Once she has everything, I go over to her grab her hand and hold in till we get to the car.
We just arrived at my apartment and Rosie is kind of just standing there looking all awkward.
"Do you want to shower or take a nap"
"I just want to take a nap"
"You can take my bed follow me"
I lead her to my room and open the door and tell her
"You can sleep here. Do you want some clothes to change into?" she nods her head
I go and grab her some clothes and hand them to her.
She goes and changes into them and I go into the closet and change as well. Once I'm done changing, I go and sit on the bed and wait for her to come out.
I hear the door open and look up and see her in the shirt and sweatpants I gave her I also see that she had to roll the sweatpants a couple of times so they could fit her.
I get up and head for the door but before I could leave her voice stops me "Can you stay with me?" I nod my head and go over and lay down behind her and put my arms around her waist and pull her closer so to me and whisper in her ear "You have no idea how beautiful you truly are."
