I see things have been going nicely while I was sleeping.” “You have no idea how much I missed you,”1 said through my tears.“I was beginning to think you were never coming back.” “111 always return to you, Lila,” she breathed. “I’m still feeling a little weak, but I’m glad to be back as well.” “you should rest some more,” I told her.

“I'll be okay until you are feeling better.

I buried myself into his body and allowed him to enclose me in his warm arms. “Let’s get some sleep; I'm sure she’s still weak and you need rest too,” he whispered against me I nodded, closing my eyes.

But once I did, I was pleased to see that Enzo was seated at the end of the bed with a small table, and on the table was a plate of food and coffee. I sat up groggily but starving. “Good morning,” he said with a fond smile. “Dee made breakfast and I figured I'd bring it to you in bed.” “Breakfast in bed?” I asked, raising my brows at him. “You are such a romantic,” I teased. He poked me on the nose, grinning at me. “We have a long day today.

I closed my eyes, taking in every flavor that occupied my taste buds. The bacon and eggs were cooked to perfection, and she added the right amount of salt and pepper to the eggs. She knows I don’t like my eggs runny as well so those were also perfect. I sipped on the coffee, feeling satisfied and energized as it filled my stomach. By the time I was finished,

I grabbed a fresh pair of ) clothing from one of his drawers; I learned to keep some clothing here just in I caseand Iwas glad that I did because we didn’t pack before returning here for the night.

I found him in the kitchen where Dee and some other packhouse workers were cleaning dishes from this morning’s breakfast. “Oh, hello, Lila,” she said, giving me a fond smile. “I baked some extra cookies last night.
