For the past month, I have been getting threats and they’re increasing, making me fear for my life. I’m not the only one who is scared. My family and Silas are also scared for me too. They don’t leave me on my own and extra security has been installed in my apartment. The only time I’m without Silas or my family is when I’m in class and I have to give them constant updates that I’m okay or they will freak out. 

The police haven’t been able to track the messages I have been receiving, saying that the location keeps changing and other excuses I don’t remember. I’m too stressed and want nothing but to put an end to this mess. 

“Rosie,” Dad says as he takes a seat beside me. I’m currently home for the weekend and so is Silas, but he’s spending some time with his family since he hasn’t seen them in two weeks. 

“Yeah.” I look at him. I have a feeling that he has something new to say about the whole stalker thing. 

“I hired a private detective to look into the messages you have been receiving and he is coming in a couple of hours,” he informs me and I deeply inhale. “I’m done with depending on the police. I should have taken this step weeks ago.” 

“Do you think he will be able to help?” I ask, pulling my knees to my chest. 

“He’s the best at his job, Rosie,” Dad assures me. He opens his arms for me and I instantly crawl into his embrace. I have always been a daddy’s girl, even more than Lily. “I promise I will put an end to this.” Dad kisses my head, making me smile. 

“Please/do, because I’m super done with all of this,” I heavily sigh. 

“If you want Silas to be here when the detective comes, you can call him,” Dad tells me. Part of me wants to call him; however, another part 

doesn’t want to disturb his time with his family. Lately, he has been spending a lot of time with me more than anybody else and I don’t want to monopolize his time. 

I have talked to him about that, but he always tells me that he wants to make up for the time we lost and he doesn’t want to leave me alone when my safety is at stake. But, I’m with my family now. I’m safe here, so he can have a break from me. A well–deserved break if I may say. 

“I think it’s better to let him spend some time with his family,” I decide and 

my 

dad nods. 

I get up from my place and head to the kitchen to help Mum out a bit. Lily is already with her. It’s been a while since I last spent time with the two of them. 

“Can you find a role for me?” I say as I approach them. 

“Take care of the sauce while I season the chicken,” Mum immediately gives me something 

to 

1. do. 

Although I have a stalker who is disturbing my peace of mind, I’m grateful for the positive changes that have taken place during the past month. Silas and I are back together. My memory is finally back and I guess I now remember everything. Whenever they talk to me about something, I find myself aware of what they’re talking about. I’m starting to hang out more with Caroline, Alexa and Natalie again. Not only them, but I have actually hung out with Maisie too. 

As for Silas, he has been treating me like a princess. Despite everything, he has been trying to make the most out of the time we’re spending together. From movie nights to all sorts of dates, he has spared no effort to make me happy. I’m so lucky to have him in my life and I’m luckier because he didn’t give up on me when I almost gave up on everything. 

An hour later, the detective comes and checks everything he needs to conduct his investigation. He looks like he knows what he’s doing and I’m hopeful, but I’m trying not to get my hopes up; I want to avoid any sort of disappointment that can be avoided. 

When he leaves, I call Silas to give him updates. “Why didn’t you tell me? I could have been there for you,” he tells me. I have already expected to hear that from him.

“Because I want you to spend some time with your family,” I give him my reason. “And here I am, telling you everything he has told us, so no need to worry.” 

“When should I pick you up tomorrow?” he asks. I’m glad that he has changed the subject. 

We’re going back to our apartments tomorrow. Each of us still has their own apartment, but we always stay together, whether it is at my place or his. I have gotten used to sleeping in his arms and it has become my best sleeping position. 

“Maybe seven. Mum will kill me if I leave before having dinner with them.” He chuckles, knowing how Mum has been focusing on my eating habits to make me reach a healthy weight again. I have already gained six pounds, but I’m supposed to put on six more. 

“I miss you, cupcake,” he tells me and I smile.
