Kissing her forehead Damien said.

"I love you too."

Ina smiled feeling happy seeing him back to his old self, it felt empty not having him around.

Hearing a knock on the door, Damien went to open it.

Owen and Katherine came to visit in in the hospital.

"Ina this Owen and Katherine." Damien introduced them to her.

"Nice to meet you too." Ina said as she stared at Katherine, Damien had told her about Katherine and Owen before.

"I heard what happened, thank god that you are safe." Owen said as he handed Ina flowers bouquet.

Taking a sniff, Ina smiled.

"Thank you, I love flowers." Ina said as she handed them to Damien.

Ina noticed how Katherine wasn't saying anything and just stood there.

"We will leave you alone to catch up ladies." Owen said before he left the two girls alone.

"No need to feel embarrassed." Ina said as she held Katherine's hand.

"Thank you." Katherine said.

"You know we should be friends since boyfriends are childhood friends, don't you think that?" Ina asked.

"Yes." Katherine replied already feeling comfortable around Ina.

"Why are you standing? sit here." Ina guided her towards the chair.

"So tell me, how far are you?" Ina asked as she stared at Katherine baby bump.

"Fourteen weeks." Katherine replied.

Ina felt curious and wanted to ask some questions.

"You look very good, I can tell that Owen is taking care of you." Ina said and Katherine nodded her head smiling.

Katherine picked up the sadness in Ina's voice, she is maybe blind but she can read emotions through people's voices very well.

"Damien too, he loves you so much." Katherine said and heard Ina sigh.

"I know, but after I was diagnosed which I'm sure that Owen told you about, it feels that I turned his life upside down since I got sick." Ina said and saw Katherine lifting her hand and tried to reach for Ina's hand and she extended her hand and held feeling Katherine squeeze her hand gently.

"Don't lose hope, everything will be alright." Katherine said.

...

At Daniel mansion.

Nora woke up from her sleep because of her baby kicking, she looked at the time and noticed that it was four in the morning, she sighed and rubbed her stomach.

"Can you let your mommy sleep for more than hours?" She asked her baby but what she received as an answer was a strong kick.

Nora shocked her head hopelessly and got off the bed, she went towards the bathroom to use it and went out after it.

"What we should do since you don't want to sleep?" Nora spoke as she walked towards the couch and sat down, she picked up the book that she was reading before she went to bed but she got tired after reading for a short time and put it back on the table.

She got up and walked out of the room and went downstairs, she climbed down the stairs slowly, movements became a very hard task now that she is thirty weeks pregnant.

Everyone was sleeping, including the maids, but she felt hungry and she can't week up the maids just because she wants to eat.

She went towards the kitchen and prepared something light for her to eat before she went upstairs.

"Nora." She heard Daniel's voice.

Turning around she saw him walking towards her.

"Why are you awake now?" Daniel asked, he was awake doing some business when he heard footsteps on the stairs.

"I couldn't sleep and I was a little hungry." Nora replied as her baby gave her a strong painful kick but she tried to not show the pain.

Closing the gap between them, Daniel reached his hand and tugged the strand of her hair behind her ear.

"Let me walk you back to your room." He offered as he helped her to walk towards the room.

Laying her on the bed, Daniel walked towards the other side of the bed and joined which made Nora confused.

Was he planning to sleep here?

"I'm just going to make sure that you fall asleep then I will leave." Daniel said as he covered her with the blanket and turned off the bedside lamp.

Nora turned her body to sleep on her side because it is much more comfortable to sleep this way than on her back. Now she was facing Daniel, she could see his face because of the moonlight that was coming from the window.

"Can't sleep?" Daniel asked her.

Nora nodded and reached for his hand from under the blanket and put on her tummy where the baby kicked and placed her hand on top of it.

Daniel was surprised at first but he then relaxed, it's the first time that Nora did something on her own.

"Wait, you feel it." Nora whispered and he waited patiently, Daniel started to lose hope when it took a long time but it suddenly happened.

He felt the baby kick against his hand, Daniel smiled as he looked up at Nora.

"This is why I have been awake." She said and saw Daniel move closer to her.

"You should have come to me." Daniel said as he kissed her forehead.

At moment's like these, she feels overwhelmed with many feelings. It's hard to not accept him. Daniel has everything that any girl would dream about, but she was looking for a father, a good father to take care of her and her baby and so far he is doing more than okay.

Daniel thought about something for a while before he spoke.

"I will be sleeping here with you every day." Daniel declared as he covered his body with the blanket.

"Here, you mean here?" Nora asked as she looked at him.

"Yes, here, as a father I should take care of my child and his mother, and now close your eyes and sleep." Daniel said as he kissed her cheek.

Nora felt her face turn red with embarrassment, she didn't mind him sleeping next to her as long as he behaved himself.
