Chapter four
?Return of Rose ?
Rose POV
I got home around 8:00pm, feeling a bit stress, I went straight to the sitting room and sat down on the couch with my head resting on my hands
I just hope Jose and Richard have gone to bed, I just want to think for a moment, in a quiet place
I can’t still shake off what my boss told me in the morning at the office , the mare taught of it scares me to dead, causing me a big headache
I can’t go back there, I can’t but I don’t want to loose my job or disobey my boss, I mean this a big deal for the company, why me, what will I do
The company sound a bit familiar, when he mentioned it but immediately he said it was in new I became pale and sick, I was lost in taught through out today in the office
” Rose you are back ” Josh said making me to flinch with fear, immediately a look of concern appear on Josh face
” Are you okay Rose” he ask sitting down beside me
” Richard?” I ask because he was not with him
” He is sleeping in his room” Josh said, as he gave me what was wrong look
” Am fine Josh, is just that you took me unware” I said, I don’t want to trouble him , he has done enough
” Rose, I know very well that you are lieing, did something happen at work?” He ask
” No..” hesitated and say
” Rose, you can’t tell me nothing happened, you left here this morning all bright but came back looking scared as Sh|t, please tell me what’s wrong” he ask with a concern voice
I couldn’t control my emotion any more, I started.. crying with my head still in my hands
” Füçk, Rose is it that bad, tell who the Füçk made you sad” Josh ask pulling me into his arms,.I cried more
” That’s it, am calling your boss” Josh said as he try to get up but I hold on to him tight
” No..no.please” I said as I tried to control myself from crying
” Then tell me what’s wrong, I h@të seeing you like this” Josh said, pulling my face up towards his as he put his two hands on my two cheeks
” He said, I have to go to New York for a business” I said
” Tell me you didn’t agree” he ask
“I have to” I said
” You know you don’t have to go and I aslo will not let you go there” he said as he let go of my cheeks and slowly stroke my hair
” But it will cost me my job, he is my boss, I can’t just tell him No ” I said feeling so miserable
” I will talk to him” Josh said
I knew if Josh talk to my boss , he will be able to concern him, am tempted to ask him to
but it will look like am using his influence to make things work in my favor, I don’t want my boss to look at me that way
“Please don’t” i quickly said, holding his hand
” But Rose..” I quickly cut him off before he could say anything again
” Josh, I know you want to help but this is my job, I will to do it” I said my voice sounding horrible and shaking
Am I ready to do this, new York hold nothing but pain and bad memory for me, what if Alex is out there looking for me, what if I run into Alex, the mare thought of this gave me a cold chill
” Rose you can still choose not to go, I will talk to your boss” Josh insist
” I don’t want my boss to think am using your influence to get my way, moreover ones past will definitely catch up with you someday” i said, even when am feeling so scared inside
” Fine but am coming with you” Josh said
” No you can’t” I quickly said
Yes i told Josh what I went through but not all of it, not how dangerous Alex is,the kind of monster Alex has become, Josh only thought that Alex was only an abusive boyfriend
” There is no way am letting you go to New York alone Rose, that psycho might be there” Josh
” Josh please, you will have to stay here and look after Richard for me” I said
if eventually I happen to run into Alex,not that I want to run into him, I pray for that not to happen,
But if it did I wouldn’t want him to know of Richard, but I don’t what to tell Josh the main reason am telling him not to go with me, because he will insist more and put himself in danger
If anything happen to me, I want him to take care of my boy, I trust him to take care of Richard
” My sister can look after Richard” Josh said
” Josh please, Richard is not that familiar with Belle, he will need you.. please” I said
” Damnit, Rose..why are you stubborn, you know very well that I can take care of you and Richard, you don’t to have work” he said
knowing that he is concerned about me is enough and it really touch my heart, I wish why I have to keep him save, I can’t bear to loose another good person
” Josh, we have talk about this”
” Yes, I know but..”
” Josh please, just do this for me take care of Richard until am back, don’t ever leave his side” I said to him
Josh stare into my eye and see how determine I am, knowing that he can’t win me, so he back down
” Fine, when will you be leaving?” He ask
” Tomorrow morning” I said
” Füçk, are you sure I can’t convince you not to go” he said
” You can’t” I said and peck him on the cheek as I stood up to go to my room ” good night” I said to him, ending our discussion
I went to Richard room first before heading to my room, remove my clothes and enter into the bathroom room, on the shower and slowly sat down on the bathroom floor as I let the water pour on my along with my tears and fear
I knew that one day I will have to visit my past, but I never knew that it will be this soon, am I strong enough…to comfort it

Alex’Pov
I was about to go and shower when I receive a call from Ben
” You better have a good reason for calling me” I said as I pick the call
” We have found her” he said, sounding so excited
It took me a minute to understand what he said as excitement and happiness fully heart
” Are you Füçking with me” I ask, for I can’t still believe it
” Am, for real man” he said
” Where is she?” I ask
” One of my men where able to identify her, she is in England” Ben said
” England?” I ask shock
” Yes
I wonder how she managed to get there, she had nobody to help her, unless…it better not be what am thinking
” Where is she staying at” I ask
” According to the information, She lives with one Josh Drew, ” Ben said
” Tell them not to do anything, let them keep following her, get her address and forward it to me” I said
” Okay”
Is he, her lover or what, I don’t care, am taking her back
” And book a ticket for us, we are going to England tomorrow” I said to Ben over the phone, thank God I have already been there before,I have my Visa
” Okay” he said and cut the call
Can’t still believe I found her, I wonder how she will look now, my beautiful Rose
If not that is already late and you can’t book tickets by now, I would have gone to England now without wasting time, I can’t wait to have her in my arms again
I can’t wait for tommorow to reach…but who was the guy she is living with
” Does it matter, she is yours and you have found her that is all that matters” my inner voice said to me
Exactly she is mine and if that Füçker have touch her I will kill him
