Epilogue

DINAH'S POV

"Ready to go?" Rocco asked after when i came out from the bathroom wearing a new sundress he bought for me.

It's already dusk of course i am.
I'm super excited to leave.
I nodded a simple "yes" then he stretched his hands out to me. I was confused at first but i quietly put my hands in his as he led me out of the hospital and to his car.

The ride was a silent one. Rocco focusing on the road and me overbooked with my thoughts.

"I'm sorry" i quietly said but i knew he heard me.
He didn't say anything but pursed his lips.
I sighed then turned to him fully, my laps touching his.

"I overreacted and I'm sorry. I appreciate everything you've done and I'm proud of you" i put my hands on my chin, staring at him as i talked.

"You weren't wrong tho. You have every right to be upset. I should've waited. I'm sorry i gave you a reason to doubt me..... us, it'll never happen again" he reassured me and i smiled then stretched and gave him a peck on the cheek.

"I missed you too" i said when my lips left his cheek.
His lips immediately spread to form a huge grin. The biggest smile I've seen from him in a while..... even throughout my years watching him from the void.

"God" he exclaimed, probably out of words.
He turned his head and stared at me with so much emotions which made me blush
"Stop staring" i said but he did respond, just stared at me, forgetting the road.

"Rocco drive" i scolded shifting his face from me to the road.
He laughed loudly at my reaction, gave me one last look then focused on the road.
Phew!

The street he drove to wasn't one i'd physically been in but in the void, i was here.

He drove to a nice bungalow house.
"This house is beautiful, i love it" i said while he was driving to the car park.

"I got it for us" he said. "I know. I was with you in almost every moment, remember" i reminded, making him smile.

Apparently, Rocco got this house 3 years ago as a surprise for us when we eventually get married but he lost hope and moved here with Daniel because staying at the old house was bringing too much memory for him.
Understandable.

"Wait" Rocco said after he parked and turned of the ignition. He came down from the car and jogged to my side so he could open the door for me.

"Still a gentleman" i hmed, teasing him.
He smirked "only for you mi lady" Then stretched his hands so I'll have no trouble coming down.
He then led me to the door and opened it, shifting aside so i could enter first.

The whole room was dark and the only source of light was through the opened door"

"Why are the lig—" my query was interrupted by loud, combined voices which screamed "welcome home Dinah"

Then the lights were turned on and i saw familiar faces.
My dad, Rocco's dad, Emmanuel, Jessica and of course my son, Daniel.

"You guys" i said "don't make me cry...... omg" i expressed and they all came to hug me.
They hung red balloons and flowers petals decorated the floor..... so sweet.

"We missed you" they individually muttered words about how they missed me and that they're glad that i am back.

"I missed you all too" i said then tiny hands wrapped around my legs "especially me, right mama?" Daniel said making everyone laugh.

I picked him up, carrying me on my hips "of course" then pecked his cheeks.

"Thank you guys so much" i appreciated
"Anything for you mama. Besides,Rocco planned everything. The cake, food, called all of us" she praised and i smiled
