Chapter 19: Refusing To Feed Him
"Yes, dear, I will stay with you," Rose said, looking at him, although she knew that once he slept, she was going to leave. She needed to clean herself up; she felt so sticky and was filled with Rolan’s scent.
Tobi looked at her with his eyes as if he did not believe her. He would not stay awake. He was going to watch his mommy until his mommy fell asleep. So he thought in his heart, and Darius agreed with him.
So Tobi, while his mother was petting him, trying to make him go to sleep, refused to fall asleep.
Rose chuckled in her heart, seeing the little thought in Tobi’s heart. She continued petting him. It was her chance. She knew him better than he knew himself.
While her soothing continued, Tobi did not know when he found himself falling asleep, and so he zoned out.
When Tobi fell asleep, Rose started getting up and going back to the bedroom. She walked out the door. She entered the bedroom and walked towards the spot where Rolan was hiding. She opened the curtains and unbuttoned her shirt, then flung the shirt on his face.
"Now that’s the shirt. It was really stinky. I did not like it sticking on my body."
Rolan smirked, not minding her rude words.
"Now you are going to lie that you did not like my shirt on you and my scent on you. How pathetic."
"Now turn around. I would like to clean myself," she ordered, pointing at the wall.
Rolan, for some reason, easily did as she said, and she thanked God in her heart that he did not act out any drama of getting more shameless. So she washed herself happily, sure that some pervert was not watching her.
