I had this chapter before New year's Eve but I didn't know if it would be good enough. I hope I reached your expectations 🥺

I just wanted to make some simple issues clear.
This is a story formed and written by ME to entertain loyal readers. It's all from my imagination and from my heart. So please I beg you, whatever the story's turning out to be is as a result of the wishes of majority of my readers.
If Avery wants to forgive Damon and live her life happily...it's her choice
I don't support abuse in anyway... infact it's an abomination. But sometimes life takes it's time to make us pass through fire that the person who happens to hurt us real bad is the only perfect person for us.

I'm speaking from experience here... So please bear with me. Thanks for supporting, thanks for the votes and lovely comments. I love y'all loads!!

Oh and we've reached 200k plus reads! Thank you everyone and a big cheers to us! 🥺❣️

Avery
I got to the front door of Damon's house and before I even touched the door handle, it immediately flew open making me jump in fright.

"Jesus, you're here, thank God, I was so worried please don't do that ever again" Damon rambled on as he hugged me so tightly to himself making me shocked.

How many display of emotions could I take again.

"Uh... S-sorry" I mumbled awkwardly.

As if he came out of his daydream, he stilled before slowly entangling himself from me.
"Uh I I'm sorry. I didn't mean to make you un- uncomfortable. I was just..." He sighed "I'm Sorry" he said again leading me inside the house.

I felt kinda bad making him worry.
"I I'm sorry I just... We went somewhere" I tried explaining myself in the best way possible in this situation I'm in.
It wasn't until Damon gave me the look did I confess.
"We went to my apartment" I mumbled reluctantly.

"We're you trying to leave without telling me" Damon asked as shock and what seemed like fear crossed his eyes.
"Uh no. Not at all, I wasn't leaving I just wanted to get somethings from my apartment and clean up because it's been a while since I left there" I answered truthfully.
"It's okay. There's no need to explain yourself, I trust you" Damon said softly looking at me, his gaze unwavering.

His words shocked me to the core. I mean the lack of trust was what got us in this condition in the first place. So what changed now.
"Uh excuse me I need to sh...go to my room" I said as I walked passed him but I was held back by my arm.
"Please be down in 30 minutes, I cooked dinner for us and I know you've not had anything to eat since in the afternoon" he pleaded. I nooded and walked away trying to mask my shock.

He pleaded. Come to think of it, that has been what he had been doing ever Since I saw him again. He pleaded. He begged.
Something that reverse was the case in the past.

I took a quick shower wanting to know what Damon had cooked. A strange sense of happiness filled my heart when I realized someone did something for me for once without requesting something in return.

I got down and padded my way to the dinning where Damon was standing by the head of the table his hands behind him as he came forward to meet me halfway.
"T-Thank you for coming. I I didn't think you'd come" he swallowed slowly waiting for my answer.

I just shrugged trying to hide my nervousness that seems to always show up whenever I just get a glimpse of him.

"Okay, I cooked your favorite spaghetti and meatballs, I cooked a little steak cause I know you like those, I cooked some rice and that veggie soup you love so much and I cooked jollof rice. I recently discovered you liked those also. Then I cut some fruits, we have apples, grapes, pineapples and strawberries right in this plate" he pointed to a big China ware. "And then I made orange juice for you, I made it myself and I chilled it in the fridge because I know you always have them whenever you're tired and back from work" he rushed out taking his time to explain what he's done.

This is really overwhelming. I never knew he had it in him. He did all these for me. This suddenly made me rethink what Howard said to me on our way to my apartment.
He's a changed man. He's doing all he can to earn your forgiveness, He loves you and he would do anything and everything for you if you'd just let him love and take care of you.

"Uh you cooked these? I asked meekly trying to start up a conversation as my nerves are already getting the best of me.

"Yes. Yes I cooked them, all of it" he immediately answered.

"Um it's smells really good. Thank you for cooking" I mumbled before shovelling the spaghetti and meatballs in front of me in my mouth.


Damon

I watched closely for her reaction. I watched as she cutely shoved the food in her mouth, I saw how she tried to make her groan subtle but I already heard it. I smiled and myself knowing she liked my food. I don't regret learning how to cook her favorite dishes at all.

I know she has something on her mind. But to think of what she wants to talk about... To be honest I'm dreading the outcome. I don't know what she wants to talk about, I don't even know what she has in mind but all I know is what ever would make her happy, I'd do it in a heartbeat. I just pray she wouldn't ask me to let her go. That... I can't do but if It makes her happy then...I don't know what else to do.

I feel so happy to have this rare opportunity to eat with her, I'm savoring every single minute with her because with her it's like I'm walking on eggshells.

I couldn't eat much as I didn't know how to make her spend some of her time with me.
