Chapter 32
Rosie's POV
~~~~2 Months Later~~~~
Well, its been 2 months since Daniel and I found out that I was expecting. Since the doctor said that I was about 2 months when he found out, I am about 4 months now, and it has been the most boring time. Daniel won't let me do anything, but lay in bed. He won't let me cook, clean, etc. He wouldn't even let me work the record book.
The record book was a book that kept track of who checked in and who checked out, what room they were in, what kind of room they ordered, how long they were staying, etc. He acted like this when I was pregnant with Felicity. He claims that he doesn't want me to over work myself. It's nonsense. I can take care of myself.
I'm not mad at Daniel, nor can never be. I know that he means well, it's just that laying around all day eating, sleeping and sometimes reading gets really boring really fast. At least Daniel wasn't completely like how he was when I was pregnant with Felicity. At nights he will come to bed and eat. Last time, he would never eat, never sleep and would work all night. I was constantly worried about him and his health. I guess that's why he comes to bed at night.
I was currently laying in bed, but I needed to get up and get some exercise. I slowly stood up and stretched my arms above my head and reached for the ceiling. Once I felt less stiff, I started to walk to my door, but when I walked past my mirror, I stopped and looked at my reflection. I to at my stomach through my reflection and noticed the small bump that was starting to form. I gently rested my hand on my stomach and slowly rubbed my hand on the bump.
I instantly smiled at the thought of a little person growing inside me. As I stared at my reflection, my bump became more noticeable. The bump wasn't big, but it was only visible when I wore certain dresses. Usually you could see it if I were to wear a tight dress.
After a few minutes of staring, I decided to go downstairs to get some exercise. When I reached my door, I hesitated. Maybe I should change my dress. I wouldn't want Eric to find out. I thought to myself and changed into a bigger dress to hide my bump. I didn't want Eric to find out. I never told him, nor planned on telling him.
I wasn't any of his business. Besides, he would flip and get angry with Daniel and threaten, maybe even try, to kill him. But is not telling him better? What if he finds out from someone else? Won't he be even angrier because you didn't tell him? I shook my head, removing these contradicting thoughts out of my head and continued out of my room once I was dressed and cleaned up.
When I made my way downstairs, I suddenly felt nauseous. What was that smell? I followed the smell until I reached the kitchen. I stood there in the doorway with my mouth wide open. Inside the kitchen was a complete and utter disaster. Daniel was covered in flour and different kinds of food, there was water, food, and dirt on the floor, and there was food on the walls.
There was also a giant pot on the stove boiling over and burning. Daniel gasped when he noticed me in the doorway. "Rosie, I swear I'll have all of this cleaned up in no time.", he said frantically. I chuckled and shook my head and walked toward him.
When I stood in front of him, I wrapped my arms around him and gently rubbed his back soothingly saying, "Why don't I take Felicity out to the park so we both can get some exercise, and when we come back I'll help you clean up.", I tried to reason with him. Daniel was reluctant at first, but after looking at me giving him the puppy dog eyes, he agreed. "But, while we are out, I want you to get some rest and relax. OK?", I continued.
He nodded and I smiled and kissed his cheek and left the kitchen with Daniel right behind me. I went into Felicity's room and gently shook her saying, "Felicity, wake up honey. Do you want to go to the park?" She instantly shot up and screamed, "YEAH!" I chuckled at her bubbliness and took her in my arms to give her a bath and get her dressed.
When she was cleaned and dressed, we made our way out of the house and down to the park. We were at the park for about an hour and we were both exhausted. When we were done at the park, I hailed a carriage because neither one of us wanted to walk home. I was glad that I had decided to bring some spare money with me.
When we got home, I carried Felicity up to her room to put her to bed considering that she had fallen asleep on my shoulder in the carriage. After putting her to bed, I returned downstairs to help Daniel clean up like I promised. I didn't dare tell him that I was tired because he would've made me go to bed and then he would have to clean up (and possibly make a bigger mess) all by himself.
When the kitchen and dining room were both cleaned, Daniel and I went up to bed and the both of us fell asleep with my head on his chest and his arms wrapped around me, and I couldn't be happier.
