The rays of the sun fell on the faces of Lily and Rufus, and made them open their eyes slowly at the same time.
R: good morning L: good morning honey-she kissed him on the lips while saying it.
R: how are you feeling? L: im feeling just perfect next to my husband R: what do you want to eat?

Serena was hurting and she was walking on the streets thinking about what happened last night. How can Nate take Jenny s side? How can Jenny do this to me? All she did was be nice to her step sister.. but she knew she couldn t think about all this when her own mother was battling with her life and headed towards the pent house.
L: hmmm .. something smells just great, Good morning Eric and Jenny- she said walking down the stairs.
E: good morning!
J: Good morning!
E: mom how are you feeling? Do you need anything?
L: oh please , stop doing that .. I am fine and no one needs to worry - she said smiling- all I want is to eat Rufus waffles because I am so hungry - which made everyone laugh. But deep inside Rufus felt very guilty and weak, very weak but he dint want Lily to notice that, he had to stay strong for her.
Serena came out of the elevator.
S: mom, good morning, how is you?
L: oh darling im just fine, im happy that my famly is here with me .
S: might want to think twice about that she said after she glanced at Jenny and made everyone have a confused face- something smells good, I bet its waffles!
The elevator opened and everyone was shocked to see the person coming out of it!
L: William, what are you doing here?
W: just checking in on you!
R: you don t need to do that, Lily has a family of her own you know!
W: I know but Lily interrupted him we were just having breakfast, join if you want to - she said turning away and walking towards Rufus to kiss him.
Lily whispered to Rufus L: you don t mind, do you?
R: would anything change if I said I do?- he said kissing her.
L: I love you, Rufus!
R: me more!
The breakfast table was awkward with William, Serena and Jenny and Rufus and Lily and Eric was the only one feeling out of place and almost the whole time everyone was silent. Everyone was relieved when they were done eating but no one could enjoy the tasty waffle because of the tension and the awkwardness.
After breakfast William and Serena left the house and Rufus went upstairs leaving Jenny and Eric to clean.
Rufus was alone in his room thinking about Lily and cancer and browsing the internet to learn how effective it could be. Tears were about to roll down his face but he tried with all his strength to fight it but he just... how can he when the love of his life, his wife, his soul mate, the person he loves the most is fighting from something that is proven to be very dangerous? Just when he lost the strength to fight his tear Lily walked in and she could almost hear her heart break when she saw him crying.
