Winning Her Heart Again novel Chapter 53

Chapter 53: What I'm Scared Of

Jasmine's POV

We went back to the hotel after we were done eating because David wanted to sleep. Actually, he's already in our room sleeping. I think he's tired.

“How is he?” Diego asked me while he was watching. I sat on the other side.

“ He's sleeping now. I think he's tired of playing,” I chuckled. I grabbed a piece of pizza and juice and started eating while watching a movie also.

“ He's been asking about this trip while you are not around. He kept on repeating about it. That's why I have no other choice but to talk to you. “ He started. I nodded.

If it is not because of David, I have no plan to come back here. Diego's assistant can also manage that project.

If he hadn't seen that picture of me, maybe he wouldn't have any idea about this place. I also know that when he's with Diego, they always go somewhere else. Actually, that's really what he wants.

He kept insisting that he wanted to be with me at work, but I couldn't let him. Travis might see him, and I don't know what to do if that happens.

I never thought that scene would happen.

“ I'm sorry when he always does that. David just became interested in this place, and he wants to explore it. “ I said. I heard him let out a heavy sigh.

“ No, it's okay. You know how important David and Jasmine are to me. “ He said that it touched my heart.

“ I'm sorry that you still have to carry us all the way here. I'm sorry for being a burden.” I tried to smile, but when I remembered those struggles that I faced in the past years, I couldn't help but be sad.

I don't know why I have to experience those things. I can't forget the pain, and it still remains in me. I tried to forget about it, but I can't.

I just felt him standing up and sitting beside me. And hugged me.

“ I never considered both of you like that. Even in the first place, I never saw you as a burden. And I will never think of you that way, Jaz. God knows how important you and David are to me. He knows how much I love both of you.” He said and caressed my back. His words melted my heart. I can't say a word. I don't know how to answer him.

I just felt my tears keep on falling in my chicks. I went on a challenging path in my life, and I know that he faces more than what I experienced. But here he is, showing me how strong he is and that I should also do it.

He will cook for me and even do household Chores. When David was six months old, he would help me rush him to the hospital when he got a fever. He’s always on guard and didn't let something bad happen to both of us.

When I couldn't let David stop crying, he would try to Carry him, and he would sing a song to him. Even when nights come, he’s always there for us.

Even if he's so busy with work, he never forgets to bring food for me. When David slowly grew up, Diego never failed to accompany him and gave him everything.

Money couldn't repay his kindness—not even a billion thank yous. I don't know how I would be able to repay everything he did to us.

“Common, stop crying now. I promise to myself that I won't let anything bad happen to you and David, even if it costs my life, " he said and fixed my hair. I looked into his eyes, and I could see how serious he was.

It's just that I can't explain my feelings. I still can't tell what's really in my heart. I know he's been waiting, and I’m dying thinking that I might hurt him. I don't want that day to happen.

I'm scared. I'm scared about what is going to happen in the future. I'm scared that one day, everything will be ruined.

I'm scared that one day, those happy memories will end.
