105 Chapter 18: Winter, Anthony Pram (1/2)
Rose brought Winter to school like usual but ignored and avoided Anthony like a plague. You could tell he wanted to apologize but couldn't say or do anything with Rose intense avoidance of his presence.
She sat in the nurse office, and Winter went to sleep earlier than expected. So, she decided to read a book when Anthony burst in loud.
”Hey”
”….” She just stared at him, but, didn't forget to have an eye for Winter who seemed to have shaken somewhat when Anthony burst in.
”its all your doing is it” he started to walk toward her threateningly ”I settled the rumors already, So, why did you bring them back up.”
”…”
”You wrote that article on the school's main page about me being the father.”
”…”
”Don't think I don't know that you are trying to take revenge on me by telling everyone I am the baby father.”
”…”
Anthony kept going on and on. While Rose got sat there and said nothing before Winter woke up and started making soft muffles. When she turned around Anthony was gone. She heard that later on, he got into a small fight.
After Dinner Rose was washing the dishes.
”Why are you doing the dishes instead of Aja,” Anthony said as he referred to the fat maid. Rose continued to ignore. He left disappointed when he didn't get a response out of her and came back.
”Hey, let's go out” she heard his voice again when she finished the dishes and dried his hands, but, this time, she also heard Winter. Making her turn around, but she still didn't say anything.
”There's nothing to stop him from going out, right?”He walked towards the front door, Rose reluctantly following. Eventually, she saw new expensive looking Pram. She saw him strap Winter, and It was still somewhat day out as they walked towards the park. Anthony was looking pretty happy at this point in contrast to Rose's solemn expression.
BZZZ, Rose phone as she watched Anthony sit Winter on his lap and make a sandcastle with him.
”Rose” she heard Anise's familiar voice ”Won't you spend some time with me, like right now?”
”I can”
”Really!?”
”Yes”
”Thank you.”
Rose walked into the restaurant she frequented with Jean. She nodded at the waiters who smiled back at her. Anthony looked reluctant but still followed into she saw her sister wave at them. She picked up Winter from the Pram as one of the waiters folded it up, and another brought a high chair for Winter. When she came up to Anise table, she fastened Winter to it.
”Thank, you,” she said to the waiter who waved back in response as she walked to take care of her table. While Rose as she sat down on the chair.
”Why are you here, Pig?” Anthony looked at his sister skeptically
”You came.” Anise said ”I asked Rose to come to join me
”Socializing is…. good” He looked at Rose who wasn't even facing him before sitting down on another chair.
”We're ready to order over here” Anise raised her hand. As a waiter noted to came to get their orders, Anise orders a lot of dishes surprising the waiter and disgusting Anthony into not ordering.
”Paul, I'll just have some strawberry lemonade and the special Crème milk for Winter,” Rose said to the waiter. Crème milk was a very tasty specialty milk mixture safe and delicious for babies and adults, and the young owner decided to input this when he meets Jean who gave him some tips.
Anthony and Anise were somewhat surprised at the familiarity between Rose and the waiter.
”Jean's not with you this time.”
”No, he's spending some time with his father.”
”Well, a man can't learn the family business if he follows his sweet-heart around all the time” the waiter teased and hinted that Jena wants to learn the family business to support Rose.
With her face slightly flushed before returning to normal as she saw the two people staring at her. Anthony didn't have a happy expression on his face as it seemed as she was wondering who this Jean character is. It looks like he still thinks that Rose likes June, but, now not anymore.
As soon as they finished eating Anise started texting on her phone and Rose wiped Winters' mouth,
he was giggling and smiling wildly
