Caught In His Embrace: A Second Chance Romance

Chapter 315



Chapter 315 After days of relentless rain and snow , the sun finally broke through this morning .

Rosie finished her breakfast and settled into the recliner by the window , facing outside .

With the New Year approaching , the normally quiet nursing home felt even emptier over the past few days .

But today , there was a buzz of activity in the courtyard , and one could faintly hear the sounds of laughter … Ms.

Miller , a caregiver approached , handing her a glass of water .

You should drink some Thank you , Rosie replied , holding the glass and inquiring .

Whats happening outside ! It sounds Lively .

Some folks are flying kites ! The weather is pretty nice today , the caregiver said , glancing out at the bright sun .

Why dont we step outside for some fresh air ? Since the day she had fallen into the water , Rosie had mostly stayed indoors , so a little fresh air wouldnt hurt .noveldrama

Is that okay ? Rosies mind moved , but she was afraid that something would happen again .

I hope nothing goes wrong Dont worry , the caregiver reassured her with a confident grin .

Well just stay in the courtyard , wont go far .

This time , Ill keep a firm grip on you , I promise .

She laughed .

Rosie found herself smiling back .

Alright then .

Lets go As they stepped outside , the sounds of laughter grew louder .

Rosie smiled , Looks like there are a lot of people .

Yep , the caregiver responded .

Our courtyard is spacious , and folks from other areas have come over .

Plus , there are caregivers and staff here too It is really lively .

Rosie chimed in .

The caregiver grinned and asked , Ms.

Miller , do you want to fly a kite ? Can we do that ? Rosie felt a twinge of excitement .

But we dont have a kite .

Theyre handing them out over there , the caregiver said , hooking her an arm through Rosies , Come on , lets go grab one ! Sounds good ! The two hurried over and picked up a kite .

Once they had it in hand , the caregiver looked a little nervous .

How do we fly it ? Ah , Rosie chuckled , You dont know how to fly ? The caregiver shook her head and laughed at herself .

I was too caught up in the excitement ! Rosie remembered a time when Daniel had taught her how to fly a kite , but now , with her vision impaired and limited mobility , it wasnt as easy .

* Tll handle it , a familiar voice chimed in , as an arm reached out toward the caregiver .

Mr.

Flynn … The caregiver gulped , silently passing the kite over to him .

Y you … Rosie tilted her head slightly , her hearing sharpened ever since she lost her sight .

She recognized the voice .

Her delicate brows furrowed .

Youre … the gentleman who saved me last time , right ? Yeah , Howard nodded , raising an eyebrow .

He was relieved she remembered his voice he wasnt one for small talk .

Rosie straightened up at once , her tone earnest .

Thank you for what you did last time .

You wanted to fly a kite , te , but its too crowded here .

Lets go over there , where its less busy With a subtle gesture towards the caretaker , she understood and took Rosies arm .

Ms.

Miller , lets head that way Okay Rosie replied .

Although she couldnt see , she could tell the voices around her were quieter now .

Once they reached a spot , Howard said , Til set up the kite .

Just stay put and dont move .

Alright , Rosie answered , turning to him and nodded .

She then asked her caretaker .

Whats happening ? The caretaker relayed .

The gentleman is running with the kite right now .

He hasnt launched it yet .

Oh ! Its almost ready ? Ah the caretaker exclaimed with excitement , clapping her hands gently against Rosies arm .

Its taking off ! Really ! Rosie felt a rush of joy but also disappointment .

Its such a shame I cant see it .

Now blind , she couldnt even fly a kite herself .

Howard , running with the kite , approached Rosie quietly and discreetly waved at the caretaker .

The caretaker nodded and stepped back, giving them some space .

Amy , Rosie realized suddenly , feeling an empty space where the caretaker had been .

She raised her hand to grasp the air in a panic .

Whered you go ! Are you alright ? Suddenly , her hand found another warm and broad , masculine fingers wrapping around hers .

Ah Rosie gasped , trying to pull back , but the stranger held her steady .

Wait , its me You … Rosie recognized the voice of her neighbor and immediately felt a wave of relief .

But she then thought , Why is he grabbing me ? Here , Howard handed her the spool of thread .

Hold onto this .

Have you ever you ever done one it before ! Yeah , Rosie nodded hesitantly .

But I cant see anything па пож No worries , Howard said gently .

Theres no one else in this area , and its wide open .

Then Ill give it a shot .

The worst that could happen was that she could stumble a bit , shed been blind for so long and was itching to move .

Great , Howards lips curled into a soft smile .

Go for it Alright Rosie gripped the spool tightly and took her first small steps forward .

Howard stayed close by her side .

This way , with the wind at your back .

Got it .

Rosie nodded , pulling the thread as she began to run , gaining speed .

The cold , crisp air hit her face , but she didnt mind ; it felt refreshing , almost liberating , and a smile began to bloom on her face .

On the edge of the lawn , Josiah stood watching , his gaze becoming increasingly icy as he observed the scene unfolding before him .

He didnt say a word .

Soon , Howard noticed him too .

Hey , Howard waved at the caregiver , who understood immediately and approached them .

He sat un st sat up straight and locked eyes with his brother .

But first , you need to tell me what you think about Rosic He couldnt shake off the earlier sight of Howard with her , flying a kite .

The way Howard had looked at her ? That was the kind of look a man gives a woman hes interested in .

Howard cast a sidelong glance at Josiah , his gaze dark and contemplative .

Josiah , Rosie is Robbys mom .

That was obvious , Josiah shot back , his temper flaring instantly .

I didnt need you to spell it out for me ! This is what he already knew Wait a second Josiah quickly pieced it together , staring at his brother in disbelief .

Howard , are you saying what I think youre saying ! Yeah , Howard nodded slowly .
