Epilogue P.1

Romana's POV
_________________________________________________

Do not be alarmed my friends I got you 😉

I was more nervous than I should have been, it's like over a year already and it felt like the first time. I walked briskly down the hall towards the nursery, occasionally biting my nails and cracking my knuckles it was a nervous tactic I've developed over the months.

I reached the double wooden doors and burst through, syre the maid stood up abruptly from the rocking chair she was in.

"I'm sorry to startle you syre I'm just checking if everything is ready" I said looking around, I walked over to the crib and saw my daughter soundly asleep.

"Yes Ms. Feretti, Isabella made sure the room was ready and every other room that you requested" she answered. The room was decorated like a gift, pictures and gifts lined everywhere.

"Good and dextrose?" I asked walking over to the small box that I intend to show first.

"He already left.." was her response, my heart rate spike a little and I began cracking my knuckles again. I took the small box up and held it to my chest before putting it into my pockets.

"Thank you syre, I'll be in the sitting room if you need me" she nodded and I gave her a small smile before leaving.

A bout a year and a half ago I got a news that changed my life forever, I was pregnant and then nine months later I birthed my baby girl. Hope.

She was the most beautiful little thing I'd ever seen, just under seven pounds and red as a tomato. I promised to love and cherish her for all eternity make sure she did not go through what I did, that narrative was almost repeated when we got a death scare from the hospital about six months ago, it was when I went into labor it's like he knew that I was birthing his baby and his heart rate sped up to the point they had to inject him with medications to calm him down.

It was a stressful time for me but once I saw my hope all my worries disappeared. Dextrose had insisted I come live in Eros's estate after rose was born but I was terrified and told him that I'd have felt better with his permission.

He deadpanned me and was not going to take no for an answer, so here I am six months later running and estate with maids and chefs, butler's and all these crazy stuff like I'm the misses.

I rounded the corner to the sitting room and looked around to make sure everything was in place and perfect. I had a cake baked, decorations all over, a welcome home sign, more presents from co workers that were to be here soon and just so much stuff filled with love.

I heard a vehicle coming down the long driveway of the estate and my heart leaped. I rushed to the front door and opened it but it was just Dr. Derrick Douglas and his wife Kareem with their three beautiful kids.

They all filed out of their vehicle, each one holding a small gift.

"Romana great to see you!" Derrick chimed as he approached me, I smiled warmly at him and extended my arms for a hug.

"Good to see you derrick" we embraced each other briefly before I turned to his wife and we hugged tightly.

"Hmm it's great to see you too" she hummed, we released and I greeted the children before we all went inside.

"Only us?" Kareem asked looking around, I nodded.

"The rest are on their way"

"You did great with the place ro" derrick complimented taking a seat beside his wife. I thanked him and took their presents to put with the rest. We chatted for a bit until everyone started coming, it was a small group of people that were invited which include, Eros's psychiatrist, a business associate I think his name is mark, Isabella, dextrose and me, everybody else were kids and maidens.
