The new sensations overwhelmed Howard , sending shivers through his scalp and making his thoughts momentarily vanish But his body reacted before his mind could catch up .
Howard carefully laid Rosie down on the sofa , cradling her chin as he enjoyed the vibrant bloom of her lips .
A spark raced through him .
Her lips were not just soft , but also sweet .
A long lost memory surfaced a night many years ago when he had also kissed her .
Hmm … Rosie in his arms suddenly frowned , letting out a soft , unhappy sound .
Howard froze , quickly pulling away from her .
He touched her face and asked .
Whats wrong ? Are you uncomfortable ! Roue pouted , her brow wrinkled .

She was calling for Daniel .
The thought that she was sparked a fire of anger inside him .

Did she think it was Daniel who kissed her ? His grip loosened , and he jumped to his feet .
As he started to leave .
Rosie began to whimper again .
Go … go away ! alone … As she spoke , she wrapped her arms tightly around herself , tears quietly flowing down her cheeks .
Leave me Howard was struck , a wave of concern hitting him as a smile quickly appeared .
He had misjudged .
Knowing her husband , Rosie would surely want space , not closeness .
Howard bent down and hugged her , whispering softly in her car .
Hes not here … Dont be afraid .
He will never have the chance to come near you .
again Rosie had already fallen asleep , unaware of his words , her tears spilling from her eyes .
Howard sighed lightly and pressed his lips to hers again .
Their mouths joined , warm and gentle , lovingly intertwined .
