Thank you

I fell asleep without knowing, when I woke up I was well tugged in. Mason was no where to be seen in the room, he wasn't in the bathroom either. Panicking, I rushed down stairs and there he was in the living room, watching TV with a cup of coffee in his hand.

"how are you feeling?" I asked taking a seat next to him on the sofa. "am feeling fine, thanks to you." I nod but still just to be sure, I place the back of my hand on his forehead and truly speaking his temperature was back to normal.

"you know your not strong enough for the rain but still you decided to stay back with me, why?" I asked her just smiled but didn't say anything.

"Hey I asked why" I place the cup on the table which made a click sound, with his right hand resting on the back of the sofa, his right leg folded, he turned to look at me to say,

"to be honest I don't know why, I just felt the need to. Maybe it is because you are carrying my baby and because I've put you through pain and this is my own way of saying sorry," I purse my lips, checking the sense in what he said, hmm he is right though.

"thank you and there is no need to feel sorry, I was stubborn and it is partly my fault." his hand touch my cheek, he caress it looking me in the eyes.

"I should be the one saying thank you, you nurtured me back to health. You are not like the others out there, you are that one percent which is different and I like that." he dropped his hand, taking it back to his side.

I had nothing to say, "what are you watching?" I decided to change the topic, he turned to look at the TV and said "it is a comedy show, I think." with raised brows I ask "you think?" he chuckled.

"where is Lydia? I haven't seen her since morning," he must have forgotten that she fed him "after feeding you the soup Baron made, she went out but I don't know where." he hummed and murmured something I couldn't hear.

"Am hungry, I didn't have breakfast." Mason frown, I regret saying it. He has warned me a couple of times not to miss breakfast for anything.

"Don't get angry, I was busy taking care of you and I slept without having breakfast." I quickly said before he could open his mouth to talk.

"Come," he held my hand and took me to the kitchen. Looking at the wall clock, the time read four o'clock, woa it is late.

"where is everyone?" the house is quiet "I was feeling happy today so I sent them all to their room to rest." if there was a way for my eyes to grow wider than it is now, then it would.

"Don't look surprised and shocked, I am not as bad as I look." I know that, but for people who are not close to you m, they will see you as a semi demon. I said to myself but smiled at him.

"try being nice to people Mason, not everyone is bad." with a small smile on his face, he shook his head

"If you show people kindness, they will take it for granted and will eventually stab you in the back, I don't put my trust on people so I don't feel heartbroken when they betray me." Like aunty Josephine, I thought to myself but still

"not everyone is bad, your nice to me." I stated "and like I earlier said, your are that one percent." It is not easy to win and argument with him.

He opened the fridge, pull out a container which contains food "what are you doing?" he rolled his eyes "am trying to see if the fridge has a back door which can lead to wonderland." wow did he just?

"I just asked a simple question, there's no reason to be sarcastic." I muttered, "your simple question was stupid" He took a microwave pan, ahh he is going to arrange food for me to eat, yup my question was stupid but I won't say it out loud.

He microwaved the food and gave me to eat, muttering thank you, I collected the food. "have you eaten? you barely ate the soup in the morning." he shook his head "join me then." we ate together.

The next morning before I could open my eyes, Mason was already up. I entered the bathroom and did my morning routine "am hungry" I murmured entering the dining room "Good morning Lydia, Mason."

"Morning" they chorused. I took my seat next to Mason on the dining table. Baron and the others including Vanessa, brought in the food, my mouth watered at the sight of it. Normally am a big foodie, I eat anything and everything as long as it is not poison but lately my appetite has increased by a hundred folds, my baby is turning me into a glutton.

Not waiting for them to serve me, I dived in, I ate to my heart content. Mason went to work, felt bored, though Lydia is around but she is always in her room, I think I'll go out for stroll else I might die due to boredom.

I went back to the room, took a bath wore something light because the sun is scorching hot. I told Baron I was going out, he asked Vanessa to go with me but I refused, I don't want to impose and I want to be alone. I will find my way back on my own.
