CHAPTER 16 NEW PROBLEM?
ALEXA’S POV
I was interrupted by a knock on my bedroom door while currently taking a breath of fresh air on the veranda. I looked in my door’s direction and saw it spat our Caleb, Rhea, and Ken.
” Why do you all take so long? ” I said in irritation.
We planned and discussed doing our project today since both Ken and I will be busy preparing for the pageant in the following days. We set our meeting at two in the afternoon, but they arrived at three in the afternoon.
” It is because this ugly girl is so slow to fix herself. You will not believe this, we arrived at her house one in the afternoon, but she was still sleeping. Tsk tsk. ” Caleb explained with irritation in his voice.
” I already told you to go to my house at one thirty PM, yet you arrive early. You disrupted my beauty sleep. ” Rhea answered back with a pout.
My eyes gazed in Ken’s direction who currently looking at me. I gave him a simple smile before trying to break up the cat-and-dog melee that is happening in my bedroom between Rhea and Caleb.
” Stop it already, you two. You know the love story of my grandmother and grandfather also started there. ” I told them.
” NEVER! ” they both shouted in unison which makes me and Ken laugh at them.
Afterward, we started working on our project separately. While Ken and I worked on the veranda, Rhea and Caleb stayed in my bedroom. I intentionally separate our workplace because Caleb and Rhea are too messy to handle. Ken goes near in my direction.
” Hey. ” he said.
I only continued to stare at him with a question mark on my face.
” I am just wondering if I told you something weird when I was sleeping the last time? ” he asked.
” Ahh, nothing in particular. ” I answered with a lie.
Even if I want to ask him who Sandra is in his life, I do not dare to hear his answer. He nodded after hearing my answer, and a sigh came out of his mouth.
” That is good to know. Let’s start working. ” Ken said.
I just nodded to him, and we started doing our project. My mind is still thinking about who Sandra is and why Ken was calling her way back to the clinic.
SOMEONE’S POV
Right now, I am in front of the home of the woman I adore. I am silently watching her from afar. I can watch how she laughs and smiles because of another man, something I have previously been responsible. Even though it hurts, I know I do not deserve to go back into her life, especially now that she sees someone else already and she seems happy. I have taken a glimpse at her for the last time before I went back to my car and drove it to my condo. When I opened my door, I was shocked when I saw her.
” What? You look like you see a ghost. Will you do not greet me with a long time no see the note? ” she said.
” What are you doing here? Why are you coming back.? ” I asked her.
” Why? The last time I checked, this is a free country. I am not banned or anything like that. ” she answered me back.
” Are you insane? What is the reason for your coming back here? ” I asked her again with unbelief.
” Why? I just miss my family. ” she answered while grinning.
” It has been a long time since you are removed from the picture. You are dead in their eyes. ” I said with emphasis.
” That is not true. I know they will be happy knowing that I am alive. ” she said with confidence on her face.
” They are happy even without you. Your family has already moved on. Do not come back. ” I said in the plea.
” Who are you to restrain me? You are just a loser like her. She will be in regret that she did not save me that time. I will reclaim everything, take note of that. Everything! I will not spare even one thing for her, even her life, her happiness. I will destroy it. ” she said with full of anger in her eyes.
After she said those words, she pushed me to the floor. She gazes at me one last time with a creepy smile.Content is © by NôvelDrama.Org.
” If I, were you, you will just help me. If not, I will make sure that I will destroy her until she wishes her own death. ” she said, then left me hanging.
I need to warn Alexa, but how? Will she still believe me after what happened between us? I just removed all the questions running in my mind. One thing is for sure I will do everything to protect her and make her safe, especially against that woman.
ALEXA’S POV
Rhea and Caleb are the first to leave our house because they will have a family dinner. I really smell something fishy with them. After some time, Ken also bids his goodbye because he needs to go home already. I decided to accompany him until we reached his car. Ken and I were almost outside our house when a leaving familiar car caught my attention. Why does it seem like I knew that car?
” Hey, are you okay? ” Ken asked me.
I looked in his direction and answered, ” Yes, I am just trying to remember who owned the car which passed by because it is familiar to me. Though, I cannot still tell who owned it.”
” Maybe, it is just a similar car. ” Ken commented.
” Maybe! ” I said.
” Anyway, I will go ahead now. ” Ken said to me.
” Okay, be careful in driving. ” I told Ken.
He just nodded and then entered his car. He already started his engine, so I turned my back to walk back into our house when he blew his horn. I looked at him in unbelief.
” By the way, before I forgot. We have rehearsal tomorrow for the upcoming pageant, ” he reminded me.
” Okay. ” I said while smiling, though I am also nervous.
” Alright, I am going now. Good night. ” he said while smiling as he bid his goodbye.
” Good night. ” I answered him back.
He closed his car’s window and started driving the car. I remained at my place until I could not see his car anymore. Then, I turned my back and entered our house. As soon as I walked into our home, I went straight to my bedroom and sat on my bed. I just stared at the ceiling. Hmm, what will happen in our rehearsal tomorrow?
