THE NEXT DAY Alex walked down the stairs dressed in casual wear and Emily gave him a look.“It’s Monday if you don't know, why aren't you in your uniform?” Emily asked as she prepared for work.“I don't feel like going to school today.” He replied.“Why?”“Nothing. Is Charles still disturbing you?” He asked changing the topic.“Not really, he just apologized for blackmailing me and said he still loves me and I should give him a chance.”“Asshole.” Alex muttered and she chuckled.“Where is Alexia?” “She is still sleeping.” He replied and she nodded as she arranged some files into her bag.“Hmm, how are things going at the office?”“Rough but am trying to not make dad lose all of his investors.” “Can Miller actually buy all of dad’s companies?”“Well, yeah. Miller is the richest man in London, then dad and Charles's family is the third.” “Okay.” He replied and his mum walked down the stairs dressed like she was going for a hangout and Alex smiled.“Hey, guys.” She called.“Mum.” The
Alexia smiled happily as she ate her chocolates and Alex glared at her, she rolled her eyes at him and he sighed.“Can I have some?” He asked and she glared at him.“I thought you wanted me to throw it out.” She giggled.“No.” “Fine, you can have some.” She said and he smiled. They suddenly heard a car drive in and they both stood up and ran away from each other, Alex sat at the end of the couch while Alexia sat on another couch. Alex tried to hold his laughter as Alexia looked serious.“Stop laughing, you are crazy.” Alexia snapped at him and he bit his lip to stop him from laughing.Alex's father suddenly walked in and Alexia froze, he glared at her and she looked away immediately.“Dad.” Alex called and he turned to him.“What?”“I have agreed to get married go Piper.”“Really?” He asked and Alex nodded.“Well, that is great. At least you are starting to get responsible.” He said and Alex nodded again.He walked upstairs and Alex looked up and saw the security cameras.“I knew t
Alexia paced around the hallway feeling so worried, Mrs. McCall and Emily were also present. Piper also paced around trying to show how she cares. The doctors have been with him for hours, it is night already and still, they haven't heard anything from them. Piper bumped into Alexia intentionally as they paced around and Alexia sighed.“What?” She asked and Piper glared at her.“You bumped into me.” She said.“What the fuck?”“Can you guys really not start now?” Emily asked and Alexia sighed.“She started it Emily, she bumped into me.” Alexia said.“No, you bumped into me.”“You know, I have always respected and adored you because of your music, movies, and everything you do, you really seemed nice and amazing but now that I met you, you are just a piece of shit.” Alexia scoffed and Piper tried to hit her but Emily stood in their way and pushed them away from each other.“What is wrong with you guys? We are at a hospital, don't fight.” She said and Alexia sighed, she walked towards
“I told you this was a bad idea, Alexia.” “Will you shut the hell up and let me think? How was I supposed to know she would start acting like me?” Alex sighed and Alexia bit her lip as she thought of what to do.“Look, I couldn't come up with anything, no matter what, don't get attracted to her, always know that she is Piper Miller and she will always be that and not me.”“But she smells so much like you.” “Jeez Alex, don't be such a baby.” Alexia scoffed and pushed him towards the living room, she stood a bit far away from the living room and watched them.“Oh, you are back.” She giggled happily and stood up when she saw Alex.“Yeah.” Alex replied.“Was something wrong?”“No, it's nothing.” He replied and she nodded.“Why are you here by the way?”“Oh, I came to check up on you, you know you passed out yesterday so I didn't get some time to talk to you.”“What if I had gone to school?”“Then I would have left and come back in the evening but it seems am lucky.” “Well, thank you,
“Emily come on, am serious.” He said and moved closer to her but she moved back. “Get out Charles, it is your fault we are in this mess in the first place.” “I know and am so sorry.” “Get out.” “Emily, come on.” “I will get security to escort you out if you don't leave now, get out.” She yelled and he sighed before walking out of the office. ******* “Should we go for a drive?” Alex asked Alexia and she nodded, they both walked out of the house and entered the car. Alex drove out and Alexia turned to him. “Where should we go to?” Alex asked. “Don't ask me, you suggested the drive.” “How about we visit a therapist? I still have the address Emily sent me on my phone.” “Why do we need to visit a therapist? Am okay.” “No, you are not, if you don't want us to then we won't.” “I don't want to.” He replied and she rolled her eyes. “Just drive around till we probably get lost okay?” “I will drive to our school.” “No, don't do that. We have been skipping school because of atte
“Jeez Alex, will you stop crying like a baby?” Emily asked as Alex cried and hugged his mother tightly.“Just let him cry.” His mother said.“This is all my fault, it is my fault she is in this state.” He cried and his mother creased his hair.“It's okay Alex, it is not your fault.” “It is his fault, he was the one driving the car and didn't stop when he saw a red light.” Emily scoffed.“Really Emily?” Their mother asked and she rolled her eyes.“Yes mum, you shouldn't lie to him.” “She is right, don't lie to me.” He cried his mother wiped his tears. “Stop crying Alex, if you keep crying your head will start hurting again.” Emily said.“I want to see Alexia, I want to see her.” He cried and Emily sighed.“Well, can't he see her?” His mother asked Emily and she sighed.“Mum, Alexia looks so terrible right now, I couldn't last a minute in her ward when I went to see her, if he sees her now he could murder himself.” Emily said and he cried louder. The door to the ward suddenly opened
Alex walked into the restaurant and used his eyes to search around for Piper, he finally found her and he walked towards her.“Alex.” She called happily had stood up, she hugged him and he hugged her back. “You are late.”“Yeah, sorry. Something came up.” He replied and she nodded with a smile, he suddenly noticed something and he gave her a questioning look.“What? Is something on my face?” She asked.“No, you are not wearing makeup.” He said and she smiled.“Oh, you noticed.” She giggled like Alexia always does.“Yes, I did.”“Well, I decided to stop, don't I look pretty?”“Hmm, you are. You look beautiful.” He said and she blushed.The waiter brought their food and placed it on the table, he bowed and walked away. Alex stared at the food and sighed.“You don't like it?” Piper asked.“No, it's not that.”“Oh, I ordered it before you came, do you want to change it?”“No.” “Then what's wrong?”“Alexia likes pasta.”“Really? Me too, I love it!” She exclaimed and Alex smiled a little.
Days turned into a week and still Alexia was still in a coma, Alex cried all night hoping and praying for her to wake up so she could stop him but still nothing changed.He is getting married tomorrow and a part of him felt happy and another part of him felt sad.He felt sad because he knew what he was doing was wrong, he knew he was making a huge mistake and the happy part of him was because he is getting married to someone who seem a lot like Alexia.Alex sighed as he stood in front of Alexia’s ward, he slowly walked in and walked to her bed.He sat beside her and stared at her, he held her hand and creased it.“Please wake up.” He muttered and kissed her hand.The door suddenly opened and Piper walked in, she smiled and walked to Alex.“Hey, Piper.” Alex said with a smile and she pecked his lips.“Are you okay?” She asked and creased his hair.“Yeah, am okay.” “You must miss her a lot.” “Yeah, I do.” He muttered and sighed.“We are getting married tomorrow Alex, you should be tak
