Mistaken Identity

Chapter 18 Ice Cream

After going back to my room. I slept peaceful without any interruptions of dreams or fantasy. I showered

and made my way downstairs for breakfast. I saw Ms. Wilson talking on the phone, she looked sad.

Henrique was in his baby seat. I walked to him and place a kiss on his cheek in which he giggles. I sat

beside him, I tried to not listen to Ms. Wilson as she spoke but I was hard not to.

"No, I have to work. Maybe I'll try and make it tomorrow. I know that you need my help but," she sighed.

"I'll try." with that she hang up.

"Ms. Wilson, is everything okay?" I asked her.

"It's not very good to listen to people's conversation," she said meanly.

I rolled my eyes. "I know but I couldn't help myself you sound really sad. Is everything okay?" I

repeated.

"No, my mother has just being release from the hospital and my sister needs my help to take care of

her,"

"Oh, I'm so sorry to hear. But since she's out that's a good sign. She's recovering." I said to make her

feel better. I know even though we weren't the best of friends, she still made me breakfast in the

morning.

"No, It's bad. They didn't let her out because she's recovering but because she's dying," Ms. Wilson

said in a sad voice.

"Oh..I'm so sorry. Go."

"Go?" she asked.

"Yes, Go. Be with your mother and your sister they need you. I'll make my own breakfast." I said to her.

I didn't want her to believe that I was the reason why she can't see her mother before she passes

away.

"What about lunch and dinner?"

"Ms. Wilson. I can cook. I will deal with those go be with your family. I don't have a family anymore but

when I had one I'd do anything for them. Now they're all gone and didn't say goodbye. You have the

time to spend with your mother before it's too late. Don't worry about Henrique or Mr. Carter. I'll take

care of both of them for you because I know they are very important to you but blood is thicker than

water. Go be with your family." I said trying to reassure her. She needed it. She just found out that the

hospital sent her mother home so she can die there instance of the hospital. That was cruel. She as

least deserves that.

"Okay. Thanks. I'll go and tell Alexander that I'm leaving,"

"No, no worried I'll tell him. Go be with your family."

She gave me a smile then left to be with her family.

I took out egg, beacon, and cheese and bread out of the fridge. The most ideal breakfast. I prepared

the meal and paid close attention to Henrique in the process. I was now frying the beacon. I went

upstairs to get my phone and I was now playing music through my earphones.

I was shaking what my mom gave me in the process. I didn't put it on loud consider I had a eighteen

months child close by.

"What are you doing?" I was shocked when I heard the voice behind me. He even his voice was sexy.

I turned around to meet his alluring blue eyes. "Just making breakfast."

"Where's Ms. Wilson?"

"Oh..yeah I almost forgot. She had some family things to take care of. Her mother was release from the

hospital and needed a little help so I told her I'll take care of things so that she can visit her family." I

answered. I looked at him head to toe trying not to look like I was gawking. He was wearing a white T-

shit and a beach shorts. His hair held a 'I just got out of bed' look and he looked darn hot.

There goes my fantasying.

"Oh, are you finish? I'm hungry." He said and sat in the chair opposite of Henrique. I turned around and

continue to make breakfast but I could hear him baby talk with Henrique. I smile, he'd make a

wonderful father one day.

I place Carter's breakfast in front of him and gave Henrique a piece of bread in a plastic plate so he

didn't seem left out. I took my breakfast and sat beside Henrique. The silence was stifling. So I decide

to speak. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

"Did you managed to fall asleep last night after the ice cream?"

"Hmm..better than before, I took a sleeping pill." He answered.

"Oh..was it a dream that was keeping you up?"I asked curious to know if he was having similar dream

to me.

"Hmm..yep but I was more like a nightmare."

"Oh..that's interesting."I continued eating my breakfast. He got up and placed his dish in the sink. He

left and I heard him say, "Thanks for breakfast. It was delicious." Oh shit. He found my cooking

delicious. Well not that EBC is a big deal. Why do I want his approval all of sudden? Why do I dream

about him? What's happening to me?
