Chapter 45 Meeting Her Mum

 Stella POV
I heard him laughs hysterically, so I decided to an eye. Oh my goodness…
What do I do?
He's really the one.
He's William.
The father of my daughter.
After a short while, he covered up the laughter with a little cough. “Enough of your drama Stella, I'm not a ghost” He said sternly.
Tears welled up in my eyes,
And with my heart beating very fast, I finally mustered the courage to sit up.
He was not dead?
He's alive all this while?
Furthermore, he sat down on the edge of the bed, but I couldn't even bring myself to look at him right now, I'm so stupid.
“So, how have you been?” He inquired, and I couldn't fight back the tears again.
“I'm so sorry, William” I apologized, crying profusely. “I know I've wronged you and I don't deserve your forgiveness” My voice throbbed with emotions.
“But please forgive me, I live with regrets ever since I left you, and I can't even forgive myself…” 
“It's okay” He butts in.
“Where's my daughter?” He threw the question at me, and I could feel my soul leaving my body.
I wiped the tears on my cheek slowly, thinking of what to say.
I lifted my head to look at him and  caught him staring down at me. My heart beat skip.
I'm really done for, What on earth will I tell him now?
“I'm asking a question!” He almost yelled and I flinched. Oh, Lord.!
“Where's Sofina?” 
I gulped very hard, scratching my nape.
“I can't find her” I choked out, lowering my head. “She ran away from home for some months now, and she's yet to return” 
“What?!” He exclaimed, standing on his feet.
“What are you saying, Stella?” He gritted his teeth. “Why would she do that?”
“Let me guess, you tried killing her too?” He fumes and I raised my head.
“I will never do that to my daughter, William”I corrected.
Tears are now rolling down my cheeks.
“Then why did she leave the house?” He questioned angrily. I just wept uncontrollably. “Listen and listen good, I don't know what made Sofina left the house and I don't care to know right now”
“But if you don't provide my daughter tomorrow, then you'll know how dreadful I've become for the past years” He growled menacingly and marched out of the room.
I cracked into another round of tears.
I'm done for, Oh Lord… I'm really done for.
 Zayn POV;
I walked into my parent's massive room,
 averting my gaze from one object to another. It's been long I came here, but everything was still neatly arranged- all thanks to Mrs Rosaline.
My eyes caught the large picture frame in the room and tears gathered in my eyes.
I counted my steps towards it.
My lips curved in a small smile while hot tears flowed from my eyes.
It's a picture of us.
Dad and Mum, Iris and I.
The happiness on everyone's face is untradable. I trailed my fingers on their faces in the picture. “I miss you all” I cried softly.
After some minutes, I dried my tears and carried the picture frame out of the room.
It should be in room.
 Flora POV
I stepped out of the room, I needed some water to quench my thirst.
I wonder why David's Dad was not coming back though, I felt so much alive again after I told him everything. He seems caring, and I think I like him already.
I walked into the dinning room.
There are so many doors and I don't know which lead to the kitchen.
"Do you need something?” I flinched.
Oh, my…
I placed a hand on my chest.
I turned around and saw David's Dad behind me. “Why are you scared?” He chuckles.
I merely smile and looked down at my feet.
“Breakfast will be here soon, okay?” He says and I nodded. “I just need some water” I told him. “Oh come on dear, you don't have to be shy” I twisted my lips.
“Come sit, I'll get it for you” I nodded and watch as he strode towards a door.
Uh mm
I took a seat slowly, still amazed at every little thing in the room.
He really has a great taste, he's just like Zayn.
I sighed at the thought of him.
Does he feel my absence?
Is he missing me badly too?
“Here's it dear” I heard his voice.
He dropped the bottled water on the table together with a glass cup and took a seat next to me. “David is almost done with the cooking” He announced and my eyes dilated.
“David cooks?”  I asked in disbelief. He laughs. “Of course he does” he replied.
“Whoa”
I uncapped the bottle and pour the water into the glass cup. I raised the cup to my lip and slowly gulped it down.
“I'm sad” He says, his face not smiling anymore. Huh?
“Can I share something with you?” He asked soberly,, and I secretly adjusted on my seat.
This is getting serious.
“Of course you can sir” I said, and he shot me a little smile. “Why do I like you?" He asked out of the blue, staring into my eyes.
I didn't see that coming.
I just smile and shifted my eyes to the bottled water. “I like you too sir” I told him.
I glance at him and caught him giggling. Huh?
“Not that kind of likeness sir” I quickly added, and he erupted in laughter.
Whoa…
He looks lovely when laughing.
I smiled as I watch him laugh.
“You're so funny” He says, still laughing.
“I also didn't mean that kind of likeness, dear” He says, and I breathe out with relief. “I meant father and daughter…” He was saying, but the creaking of the door interrupted him.
We both darted our eyes towards it.
The person trudged in and my eyes protrudes at once. Hold on… What?
“I'm sorry, but I need some water” She says, her gaze down. I scrutinized the figure,
Her Blondie hair just like mine,
Her stature and… 
She's truly the one!
Oh, my… “Mum?” I called unsure.
She lifted her head and slowly gazed at my direction, and her eyes also widened.
“Flora?” She also called, and I sprang on my feet. She ran to where I was standing, examining every part of my body.
“Oh gracious Lord, it's really you, Flora!” She exclaimed and huddled me into her arms.
