Chapter 186
Romeo
We were in the air; Jenn was reading a magazine and I was going through my e-mails when I realized I didn’t give her her wedding present yet. With everything that happened last night I didn’t get to it. I slipped the envelope out of my briefcase. “Darling?” “MMMM?” she said without looking up. “Jenn.” That got her attention, she looked at me “What’s wrong, is your arm hurting?” she asked. “No, I just forgot to give you something yesterday, with everything that happened it totally slipped my mind.” “Oh, what did you want to give me?” I gave her the envelope. “An envelope?” she asked confused. “Open it.” She took her time opening it when the paper work slipped out, she started to read, I remember every word because I wrote it. “What?” she asked in disbelieve. Then she read further. “You gifting me another bakery the one I wanted to open?” “Yes, I hope it’s, okay?” Suddenly I wasn’t so sure anymore. “Oh my God Romeo. I can’t believe it. Are you serious?” she looked so happy all the worry disappeared. “Yes, darling it’s yours, I saw your business plan and I know it could work so I’m gifting you the bakery.” She got up and threw her arms around me without thinking about my shoulder. “Ouch” “Sorry” “It’s okay darling.” She hugged me then she kissed me “Thank you thank you Romeo, I really really wanted it I just didn’t know how I’m going to make it work.” “Then I’m very happy I could give it to you.” “Jeez now I have so many plans, I need to think about an opening, who I’m going to put there to work. She grabbed a pen from me and started to write. I was still working through e-mails and Jenn was still writing and making plans. I wasn’t sure about her reaction about the bakery but I’m very glad I did it she’s so happy. I started to feel tired and my shoulder was starting to pound. “Jenn I’m going to go and lie down my arm is killing me.” “Wait I’ll come with you.” “You really don’t have to.” “I know but I want to.” We put everything back in my briefcase before we walked to the room. She helped me to get into bed and gave me some pain meds suddenly I was so weak and tired. “I don’t know what’s going on with me?” “It’s just your body trying to heal Romeo and we where a bit busy this morning and there was a lot of excitement, you’ll feel better when we wake up.” “Okay.” She gave me a kiss and laid behind me holding me, she was sleeping before me, but as I listened to her breathing, I fell asleep to.
Jennifer
I couldn’t believe he was gifting me the bakery, somewhere deep inside me I didn’t want to except but I couldn’t say no it was my dream, I wanted it for so long, and he was my husband not my fake husband but my real husband. If this was still an agreement I might have said no, but because we are in a real relationship I excepted the gift for what it was a wedding present. I couldn’t stop writing everything I wanted to do at the bakery my biggest problem would be who I’ll put there to run it for now it would have to be me, I just hope Romeo understand until I find someone, I trust to run the bakery and I don’t want to appoint someone from the street, I want to work with that person to see how they work and their personalities. After a while Romeo told me he was going to lie down he wasn’t feeling well, I wasn’t going to let him out of my sight not the whole honeymoon and to tell the truth I was tired as well yesterday was a lot. We both walked to the bedroom I could see Romeo was really tired and hurting. I pulled the duvet down and helped him into bed then I got him some pain tablets. When he was comfortable, I crawled in behind him and held him. I know how he was feeling your body needs rest to recover so I will sleep with him every afternoon until his healed.
I must have fallen asleep before he did because I was awake before he was. I didn’t want to move I didn’t want to wake him, he needed his sleep, so I laid there thinking about the bakery and then my dad popped into my head. I wondered why he was drinking so heavily at the wedding and why he made a scene luckily it was before the wedding and luckily, I wasn’t there yet. But still something was up with him and I just don’t know what it was, he was not acting normally. Yes, he was a dick 99% of the time but he had never drunk excessively. “I can hear you thinking?” Romeo said. “Hi Romeo, how are you feeling?” He turned around and laid on his back. “Better thank you. But why where you so deep in thought?” “I thought about my dad and his drinking.” “Yes and?” “It’s not like him.” “What do you mean when he was younger, he drank a lot.” “Yes, but like you said it was when he was younger when my mother came into the picture and my brother and I he only drank socially not like getting drunk drinking.” “Maybe it’s because of the business I’m taking away from him?” I don’t know Romeo he didn’t even go for the bottle when my mom and brother died why will he do it now?” “Sometimes a man’s business is more important to them than their families Jenn, maybe it’s the case with your dad, his business is his everything and now I’m taking it from him because he can’t run it properly.” “But if the business was so important to him then he should have looked after it.” “He should have I agree but let’s not talk about him further I mean we are on our honeymoon.” “Okay last question, who’s running the company while we are gone?”
