The rest of the meal was downed in silence. Miranda prepared a lunch box filled with chocolate snacks for Romeo.

"Thank you so much for having me over, Mr and Mrs Smith." Romeo thanked them. "I hope I didn't ruin the mood by telling you Cara and I are just friends?" The look on his face had a hint of guilt.

"Oh of course not!" Miranda expressed joyously. "You simply told us the truth. Sure I was hurt because you are such a fine young man who is also very intelligent and caring, your kind rarely exists. But as it is, it is obvious there is no romantic feeling between the two of you so I hope you continue to be good friends with each other."

Romeo smiled, a smile of relief. "Thank you so much for understanding. Then I look forward to your invites?"

"You are welcome in my home any time, sonny." Kenneth added with a serene smile. He touched Romeo's shoulder gently and tapped it. "Thank you for all of your help and for staying by Cara's side as a good friend. You stuck by her while we were

  • His Greatest Regret    Thoughts of Doubt

    Romeo was suddenly distorted, it wasn't that he missed her, but hearing her name had altered the proper functioning of his system. But only for a second. Cara arched her brow at him, wondering what was wrong. He shook his head in response, forcing his lips into a slight smile. “Okay,” he said in response to Andrew. “I don't see why it matters to me though.” Andrew peered out of the kitchen of his apartment and glanced at the sophisticated woman sipping from her cup of tea with the grace of a queen. “It matters dude! It f*cking matters because she's sitting in my fr*aking apartment, sipping on my fr*aking tea like a fr*aking queen!” “Dude.” Romeo said. “Sorry, I'm fr*aking out.” Andrew confessed. A low sigh drew from his lips. “What do I do man?” “Wait, how is she in your house? We hadn't even met each other when…” he paused, staring at Cara. Cara just stood there with a smile on her face, waiting for him to end the call. Noticing the pause, Andrew asked. “Is Cara with you?” “

  • His Greatest Regret    I Won't Die

    Cara turned to the side with a soft grumble. She felt like she was going to throw up. Sitting up in bed, she wondered why she was feeling that way when she didn't even have alcohol. She wanted to call it morning sickness, but she wasn't sure if it usually happened at midnight sometimes too. Rubbing her weary eyes, she turned to look at Romeo. His chest rose and fell softly, a rhythm that always helped put her at ease. But she still wasn't feeling too good. She didn't want to wake him because his health mattered so much to her and he needed his rest. Managing to climb out of bed, she went into the bathroom and took a shower, hoping to calm herself. Was she hot? Was she cold? Her body was confused. “What the fuck…” she muttered as she returned to the bedroom. She couldn't even throw up. A sigh escaped her lips. “Didn't Abigail tell me these symptoms would stop by the time I'm in my second trimester?” She slid back under the blanket, managing not to wake Romeo up. Turning and tossi

  • His Greatest Regret    His cravings, her satisfaction

    “I'm– I'm sorry, that sounded weird. My son is obsessed with car racing and he has one person he idolises. That's you! Your posters are everywhere in his bedroom.” Abigail explained, still feeling flustered. “Oh…! Wow that's an honor. I'd like to meet him sometime if you don't mind.” Jastrow said with a gentle smile. He reached into his pocket, took out his wallet and handed her his card. “Of course! I'll reach out to you.” She replied excitedly as she received the card. Andrew chimed in. “If your son would also like to meet the man behind the masterpiece this bigheaded human being drives then you can also reach out to me.” He said as he slid his card across the table towards her. Abigail smiled and took the card. “Of course. Thank you so much. I'm really happy today and it's not even my wedding.” Cara chuckled. “Alright lovelies,” Andrew called everyone's attention as he clanked softly against his glass with his fork. “Let's have a speech from the bride.”“Wait what? I'm not re

  • His Greatest Regret    Her Son's Bedroom

    Morning soon melted into afternoon, the guests and the bride and groom all partied together, drinking expensive champagne and cakes of different flavours. Cara felt a hand tap on her shoulder and she turned around, only to be blessed with the best surprise ever. Her eyes widened as she exclaimed. “Abby! Oh my goodness! You came!” She wrapped her arms around her best friend and pulled her into a tight embrace. Abigail's soft chuckle flowed with the air as she hugged Cara back. “My darling, how could I not? It's your wedding day!” Cara was so happy to see her friend there. She smiled. “I wouldn't have come to my own wedding because I didn't even know it was happening!” She exclaimed with a childish giggle. A soft sigh escaped her lips as she pulled her friend in for one more hug. “You've been so busy! I barely get to see your beautiful face anymore. How's your son?” “I know right!” Abigail exclaimed with a roll of her eyes. “He's fine. He's part of the reason I've been so busy alt

  • His Greatest Regret    A SECOND WEDDING

    Cara flinched as she felt firm hands cover her face, shielding her from seeing anything. “Wha–”“Relax.” Romeo said softly before she could speak. “I have a surprise for you and I don't want you to see it until it's ready.” “Hey, don't you trust me?” Andrew said, giving Romeo a slight punch. “Everything's ready.” Romeo simply shrugged and led Cara down the path ahead. Andrew started at his best friend. “Tch…” he scoffed a laugh and shook his head before following them. Cara hated the feeling that sprouted inside her body. She was very anxious and excited for what Romeo had planned for her, of course she wondered how he could have done something like that when she was always by his side. But the feeling she hated most was how vulnerable she felt at that moment. In the dark, there was nothing she could rely on except the one who led her. She trusted Romeo with her life, so it wasn't the situation she hated– being blindfolded– but the vulnerability that came with being in the dark.

  • His Greatest Regret    THE DISCHARGE

    “Is there really nothing I can say to make you change your mind?” Cara asked as she crossed her arms underneath her breasts. Romeo tucked a toothbrush into his bag as he responded. “Unfortunately and fortunately, yes.” Cara sighed, throwing her hands up in the air. “You're just so stubborn, you know that right?” Pausing, Romeo dropped his bag on the hospice bed and walked over towards her. With his hands slid around her waist, he pulled her closer to himself and arched his head to the side slightly. “Carina, my own Cara, you know that I would never go against your words, I love you so much and I will do anything you ask, anytime at all. But I'm fine now and I don't need to stay here anymore, I want to go home and be with you.” “But I'm here with you,” she said softly, “and I'll always be here with you. I just don't want any complications, I want you to be completely healed before you leave here. You were shot for goodness’sake!” Romeo's lips curved into a gentle smile, h
