107 Chapter 20: Winter, At Limits (1/2)

Rose had woken up in a hospital to hear conversations going back and forth. And then she heard her mother voice and then sat up.She wasn't even smiling this time, and it seems she was at her limit.

”She's awake” Ashlyn smiled happily, Rose glanced at the disheveled Anna with a large palm smack on her face her children weren't even looking at her now. Griffin was sitting in a corner he was watching at Rose in relief along with her aunt and uncle, Jake.

She calmly ripped off the IV ”Is he downstairs?” she asked her Mother.

”Yeah” She giggled ”I picked the both of them up long ago” The faces of everyone in the room look at Ashlyn strangely.

”Well, it's not like I was going to let her take off with my grandson,” She said as everyone's faces turned to surprise. Jake's wasn't as he quickly turned to his cousin who had no expression, it frightened him for some reason. After all, he was used to her smiling disposition.

”That Meggs person is downstairs in handcuffs.”

Rose got up.

As she walked past Ashlyn quietly, Ashlyn smile dropped for a moment before following her out. Not wanting to be left out the rest of the group followed suit until they came upon the children's ward of the hospital. Rose touched the glass as she saw Winter who looked back at her and started smiling and get excited as waved his arms and legs.

”Where is he! Where is my baby?” Meggs screamed, ”How dare you to take a mother away from her child.”

Rose twitched and looked at her Mother who wasn't happy either as she started at Meggs. Meggs looked at Rose and started viciously spatting.

”He's my child, not yours, and he's mine…..”

”Mother, Kill her.” She said deadly in Latin. Ashlyn didn't even question it as she signaled her to mean who were dressed in police uniforms. They took her away while she was screaming and hollering.

”You bags are already packed in the car, Our flights in three hours,” Ashlyn said to Rose.

”I'm sorry,” Griffin said sadly to Rose ”My family caused you so much heartbreak even though we should be thankful even though you brought my son back to his family alive. When he wakes up, I'll tell him about you” the old man looked so emotional. But his family were focused on his words as he went to his knees.

”Father, what do you mean?” Anise questioned him

”Miss Rose is the reason you're not a widow. She saved your husband, my son.”

Rose wasn't even paying attention to them anymore her gaze was solely focused in her giggling son.

”…” Anise was speechless as she looked down and didn't say anything.
