The Assassin X Family
Damian's Desire

Some time passed.

Rose finally opened her eyes. He looked at the ceiling of the room that looked foreign, then got up and sat down slowly while holding his head that was painful.

"Where is this?" muttered.

"You're sober?" The baritone voice surprised him. Immediately, his eyes were fixed on the origin of the sound. On a man sitting on a chair while laying his feet.

Seeing her made Rose remember what had happened before, which made her fall unconscious. The embarrassing incident made Rose embarrassed.

"I can't believe it. I could have been unconscious just because of that statement ... silly statement of that man!" inner Rose.

He ignored the question asked by El. Highlight his eyes caught the wall clock that showed at 11pm, and he immediately lowered his feet from the bed in a hurry.

"Damian may be home by now. I have to pick her up right away" Rose muttered inwardly.

Looking at Rose who was about to leave, El got up from his seat. He walked quickly over to Rose until he finally blocked Rose's hand, restraining her from leaving.

Rose looked at him with a cold face. He glanced at the cynical hand of El that touched him, then asked, "what does this mean, Mr El?"

El was silent for a moment. A moment later he let out a long sigh and then released his hand from Rose. He turned his back to Rose and began to step away.

"Previously, sorry for the incident at the office, this morning," El said. He put his hand in his pants pocket, then sat back in his seat.

"I want you to read some paper on that table!" El set his sights as a hint from his direction. Followed by Rose, whom he later discovers what El means.

Rose, overwhelmed with astonishment, picked up the paper and started reading it. A moment later, his face changed. His eyes narrowed with a sharp look.

"Marriage contract! I want you to sign---"

"I refuse!" serobot Rose before El continued his words. Of course with the gaze that now leads to El. Cold and sharp. But El liked that look.

El smiled and said, "I expected that. But it's about mutual benefit. Tell me, how much money do you want to sign the marriage contract?"

Rose did not intend to repeat his words. This time, as a refusal he lifted a chest-high sheet of paper then tore it slowly before El.

"No, thank you!" Rose placed the paper rips on the table and left the ward.

El was stunned by Rose's courage for a while, he only replied with a sly smile.

After the incident, Rose was allowed to go home for reasons of poor health.

Another thing has surprised him when he sees a phone with a few missed calls. Then a message came in from Mery, saying he couldn't pick up Damian at school because of some business.

But he didn't find it at school. Rose returns home to check on Damian.

20 Minutes passed, Rose arrived at the apartment.

Step led him to arrive at the door of the apartment. He took the key in the bag and opened the door. There, he was again surprised by a pair of adult men's shoes that were behind the door.

His eyes quickly looked at a family room that was blocked by a wall with a width of 2.5 meters. The television lit up and there was a sound of Damian chatting with someone.

Rose moved her feet in curiosity. The feeling of vigilance made him pull a secret knife from behind a painting on the wall. He approached the family room which was only a few meters from his position.

"Welcome, Mother. You're home early today?" ask the boy.

"Mm.m ...." Rose nodded her head with her eyes constantly pointing to the living room. A moment later he looked down at his son. "Mom's a little unwell this afternoon. Lucky, the boss let mom come home to rest."

Damian walked closer and hugged Rose's legs. "Is mom sick? Should I take you to the hospital?" ask her with a worried face.

Rose shook her head, then looked back at the living room. "That's .. I heard you were chatting. With who?" ask Rose.

Damian did not immediately reply, instead he pulled Rose's hand, taking her to the living room to meet someone. He is a man with a tall body, his face is quite handsome and looks full of authority.

"Damian .. he ...."

Realizing Rose's presence, the man moved off the sofa. Look at Rose with a smile.

"Mother, he's Sam, the gym teacher at Damian's new school. Mr. Sam has also driven Damian home" Damian said, introducing the man with gusto.

"really? Thank you for driving Damian home, Mr. Sam." Rose bowed a little.

"No need to hesitate, Miss Rose," replied Sam. A sentence that sounded a little strange when spoken by him. And then, the atmosphere became a little awkward between them.

"Do you know, Sam is the most handsome teacher in school. He is also good at martial arts and mastered several foreign languages. Awesome, right?" Damian introduced him excitedly. Makes the man smile embarrassed.

"That's really great," Rose added in a flat tone.

"ah! Mother, sit. Let me make some tea. Break it up a little with Sam sir." Damian turned his body and was about to go to the kitchen. However, his intention was immediately realized by the mother.

"No need, Damian." Instantly, Damian stopped his steps. Rose immediately turned to face Sam with a fake smile. "It's not necessary because Mr. Sam will also leave soon because there's business, is it?" tanyakanya.

Sam was surprised and confused, but he quickly caught Rose's point. That's a pretty smooth way of driving away.

He smiled awkwardly when his presence was considered disturbing the host. Before long he stood up and said, "Miss is right. There's something I have to do. So, I have to go."

Rose only replied with a forced smile, while Sam started walking towards the door, putting his shoes back on, until he finally left.

Two-faced tub, Rose who had been smiling now put on a cold face very quickly. He glanced at his frozen son. Then turned her back to Damian.

"That's enough, Damian. Do you think you don't know what you've done? You've done it a few times, and don't think it'll work!" his nag.

Damian lowered his head with both hands clenched violently. "Why indeed? What's wrong if Damian wants a father?" His emotions instantly exploded, along with the dripping of thousands of tears.

Rose glanced at it without turning her body.

"Mom didn't even tell me about dad! Where she is and who, mom never said it!"

It's the first time Rose has seen Damian like that. Before, Damian had never shown his sadness. But on the other hand, he could not tell what he wanted to know. Because he doesn't know it either.

Rose heaved a sigh of relief then walked over to Damian. He crouched down in front of his son and hugged him.

"Sorry, Damian. I didn't tell you because I didn't want to make you sad. Because actually ... your father is dead."
