IN THE SAMOANS HEARTS

chapter 20

When we arrived home I told Ro that I was going back to my apartment cause I needed my own space. He resisted to let me go but finally allowed me to.
I got my suitcase which we came back with and took them down stairs where JoJo was.
"Are you leaving us Lee?"JoJo asked. I looked at Ro who was sad behind me then looked back at JoJo before going down to her level. "I will be back dear, I just have to take care of some things first."I told her and she told me to leave my clothes as an assurence of my come back and I agreed. I had called a cab which was waiting for me outside and kissed JoJo's forehead before slightly hugging Ro before getting in the car and left.
That night I couldn't sleep well since I was used to having someone in my bed and not just anyone but Roman. I went to the kitchen and found a bottle of wine. I decided to test it and ended up drinking a whole bottle. I took my phone and called the first number on my contacts.

Dee: please come
 
Receiver: are you drunk? since when did you start drinking, huh??

Dee: just a little bit(laughs)

Receiver:ok, hold on I will be there in a few minutes.

Roman's pov
I just finished giving my daughter a glass of milk at 9:30pm and was about to take her back to bed when my phone rang. I looked at my phone and saw the caller was my baby girl making me smile. After talking to her I found out that she was drinking. I quickly got JoJo's sweater and teddy bear and took her to Jimmy's house and borrowed Shelly the key to Dee's apartment since she never gave me one. Her sister asked me what was going on and I told her that I would explain later to her and drove off to her house.
I got at her house and I opened the door but she wasn't in the sitting room nor bedroom. I went to the kitchen and found her with a glass of wine in hand crying as she drunk. I took it from her and carried her to the bathroom. I helped her take a bath and dress her up in her pyjamas then put her into bed and I stood up going to sleep on the couch in the sitting room but she begged me to not go so I climbed in bed and held her close as I always did I told her I loved her and she said she loved me too making me wish she could be sober and say those words to me. I fell asleep with my girl in my arms.

Dee's pov
I woke up with a very bad headache and hangover I walked out of my bedroom and could hear some  movements in my kitchen and went check who was there only to find Roman." What are you doing here?"I questioned. "You called me last night,but if you want I can leave."he said stoping what he was doing and started leaving the kitchen."no, it's fine,I just don't remember calling anyone,"I explained and he nodded handing me a glass of water and some pills. I took them and we also had breakfast and talked about our problem but we  agreed that I would not be going with him on his tours to avoid more problems.
