Flashback.
"Sofia met with an accident and died on the spot" cried, Joseph.
Everyone stood in their place trying to sink in what had happened.
"Where is she?" Asked EJ.
Joseph told them the hospital they have taken Sofia and everyone started leaving but Ermanno held Rose under his gaze and said "you are responsible for her death. You killed the girl I wanted and you killed my child. Hope you rot in hell" and walked away.
Rose stood there in her place unable to move.
'am I responsible for her death? Should I have said something else? Would she be alive if I said she should accept Ermanno? I killed my sister'
She was pulled out of her thoughts when Thomas pulled her with him outside to go to the hospital.
Elisio and Sabrina came in the hospital with Julius.
EJ explained to them everything that happened.
Ermanno hugged Elisio and cried for his unborn child.
Julius held his friend, Thomas and consoled him.
Cindy and Joseph cried for their daughter.
Sabrina saw Rose crying in a corner and went close to her and consoled her.
"I killed her" whispered Rose.
"Do not blame yourself for her decisions. She is responsible for her own mistakes." Said Sabrina and held Rose in her embrace.
Rose cried her heart out hugging Sabrina.
The funeral was held two days later.
Everyone was present from family and friends.
"Sorry for your loss man. She was a good girl" said Harry, Ermanno's and Sofia's friend and colleague mate.
"You must be devastated too. You were close to her" said Remy, Bruce's son who studied with them.
Harry looked at Remy and gave him a hate gaze.
Everyone gathered in the graveyard and then finally it was time to say goodbye to Sofia.
The casket was lowered in the ground and everyone gathered couldn't stop crying over the loss of a young girl's early death.
Everyone started leaving one by one because the sky was filled with dark clouds.
Rose stood in her place looking at her sister's grave being filled with mud.
The girl who didn't allow dust to touch her was buried in the ground with all the mud.
The rain started pouring and Rose looked up and saw Ermanno looking at her without any expression.
He walked towards her and when he was inches away from her he said "do not cross my path ever little girl cause if you do, I will make your life living hell. I will never forget what you took from me. You have been messing with my mind since the day I met you. I hate you for every mess you have ever created in my life."
Flashback over.
...
Ermanno's words haunted Rose for years. They were fresh in her mind like it had happened just seconds back.
"There is the worst groomsman in the history of groomsmen," said Julius and pulled Ermanno with him to the crowd.
Though being pulled away forcefully Ermanno didn't move his eyes from Rose.
After Ermanno was out of her sight Rose left the breath she was holding.
She wanted to get out of here.
She started to walk away and crashed into someone and her glasses fell on the floor.
Rose picked her glasses and looked up to apologise and smiled looking at the person in front of her.
"Rose? Oh my god look how much you have grown. How are you?" Asked Sabrina and hugged her.
"I am good Mrs Devonte." Said Rose and smiled at Sabrina.
"Oh dear call me Sabrina." Said Sabrina.
Rose only smiled at her. She loved Sabrina, I mean who didn't love her to be fair.
"Rose. Oh my god. It's been ages that I have seen you" said Aria, Arlo's daughter and continued "what have you been up to?"
"I just finished my graduation. How about you?" Asked Rose.
"I have taken medical. I am going to paediatrician" said Aria.
"That's good," said Rose and looked at Sabrina looking at her with a smile on her face.
Rose returned her smile.
"So as I was saying. Sabrina mummy you will love the dress I have designed for you tomorrow." Said Julia.
"If it's a dress like what I am wearing right now. I will be very happy." Said Sabrina.
"Oh no. That is very hot" Said Julia.
"Great," said Sabrina and looked at Lily.
"Don't look at me. You agreed to wear what she designed for you. FYI bring extra security for stopping Elisio to punch people who look at you" said Lily.
"Julia I am old to wear too s.e.xy dresses. You should dress young girls like... Like Rose" said Sabrina.
Julia looked at Rose and said "she has a great body and height but she is a nobody. No offence and you promised."
"Ok I'll wear it," said Sabrina.
Everyone was talking and Sabrina didn't make Rose feel left out.
Rose adored Sabrina.
Rose had completely forgotten about Ermanno and was actually having a great time.
Aria was two years older than Rose but they all went to the same school so they can be called friends. And now after they both met, it felt like they never parted.
"I am going to use the rest room," said Rose and excused herself from Aria.
Rose was in the bathroom inside a booth when she heard the bathroom door open with a thug and then being locked.
She was just about to open the booth when she heard.
"Hmm you are very hot and strong," said a girl.
"You know my d.i.c.k is hot and strong too. Get on your knees and show me what your mouth can do" said the boy.
Rose put her hand in her mouth and then bit her lower lip.
She opened the booth door and came out to see a girl on her knees giving a guy blowjob. And to her bad luck, it was Ermanno who had his eyes closed and his head thrown back on the door.
"E-excuse m-me," said Rose who had turned her back to look away from them.
Ermanno opened his eyes and couldn't see who it was as her back was facing him.
"Want to join cute butt?" Asked Ermanno.
Rose shook her head and said, "would you please move, you are leaning at the door which is to go outside."
"Few more seconds love. I am getting an awesome blowjob" said Ermanno and m.o.a.ned.
Ermanno growled and came in the girl's mouth.
Rose felt disgusted.
"Thank you, baby. I'll make you c.u.m later tonight at my place, now go back to your sisters. I bet they are looking for you. And remember your butt is mine tonight" and slapped her butt and the girl left the bathroom after adjusting her dress.
