"Thanks, Jason for your help" Alex imitated Clara as both Edward and Alex burst out laughing. Clara grits her teeth as she glared at Jason for even planning this prank. "Can we play something to forget this awful prank?" Jason asked as he started his car. "What about staying quiet and enjoying this music?" Alex didn't sound rude this time. He badly wanted to lay down with no disturbance and enjoy this melody song. Clara looked at him as they had yet another fresh memory behind this music. Both didn't hear anyone's sound as they were busy reminiscing the time they had heard this music with one headphone as both were lying with their head interjected. Clara felt Alex's fingers playing in her hair even now when she remembered that day. Alex felt like touching her feathery cheeks to coordinate the rhythm. The sudden break made them snap out from the dream that they had for just a few seconds. Alex closed his eyes and didn't want to look at her to show his state while Clara didn't even
"Why did you bring her here?" Charolette yelled at Alina as she brought her inside the room."Who?" Alina asked, having no clue of what she was talking about."Your uncle and everyone here believes our culture is like God. And we all knew what Clara did? Your uncle is very upset with her decision to marry a guy of her choice. He vows not to see her face again during this birth" that was news to Alina. She gasped loudly as she looked at Clara and Alex standing there without any knowledge of this."But, aunty. We can't decide people's choices and fate. It's their life. Her parents were very happy." Alina tried to explain to her."Now they are happy but when these two get into a fight and don't let God do this but what if they separate? All love marriages result like that only. Twenty year olds can't decide for their future and that's why they should respect their parents and accept their decision." Now Alina gets tense. They came there to help Caroline break this marriage but here there
Alex's point of view:It's been three hours since she left the room. I felt utterly stupid to even think about her safety this time. She should have thought about it before leaving here. Why does she have to be so rude? She was speaking so meanly since I met her. I can never imagine Clara in this version.Do I know her well enough? Is this the real Clara? Did I miss to know her completely? Even though her face is full of attitude and hatred, I couldn't just sit and see her making stupid decisions. I messaged Edward right away and she went away. He must have sent her safely. Her words, I don't want to even recall her words. My eyes were too tired to sleep. She is proving only one thing since I met her again. And that is everything because of me. Is it so? Did I hide things from her? Did I not trust her as she did? Did I hurt her parents the way she did that day? Those questions led me to think about that day when everything went wrong. I could feel my hands and feet getting cold rec
Flashback continuesAlex's point of viewIt's been half an hour and Mira is just watching television. She is not in the mood to speak about anything. "I think it would be good" I placed a cup of coffee for her and she accepted it with a smile. What happened all of a sudden that she felt to hide it from me? I could read on her face that she doesn't want me to discover anything. She even disconnected her mom's call. We got distracted by a sudden sound and there was her mom standing with the most terrific look on her face. I look at Mira, who had the same terrified expression. What is with these ladies? "Aunty, why are you looking so tensed?" I stood up to grab her but Mira came in-between and grabbed her mom."Mom, we shall go home." She spoke spontaneously as if saving her mom to meet me. Would I eat her alive or what?"Why? I thought you left home and you are planning to live here." Her mom's words shook me. They seem to fight with intense hatred. I didn't see them like this ever.
Flashback continuesIt's been 48 hours. I didn't call Mira or Clara. I messaged Clara briefly about Mira's mom being angry. I guess she comes here quickly and sorts this out. I didn't even go back to my home. I felt so tired to even think about worries now. I decided to go and meet mom today all of a sudden. Due to these busy schedules, I could barely take time to spend with them. Today I will be with them only. After parking the bike, I felt some familiar scent. Is someone here? Maybe Clara? Her strawberry shampoo smell is very strong and I don't know how I can smell it instantly even if it's very mild.Did she come here? What if Mira's mom is here? As far as I knew, she must be here only as she fought with Mira. What would happen now? I rubbed my hair out of frustration. Before I could clean up their misunderstanding, I just hope they don't fight. I can't stand if anyone misunderstands Clara. They should know how cute and genuine Clara is. Mira should know that first. I can't imag
Alex's point of viewSwitching it off, I poured the coffee into mugs. This might be the 100th coffee. The day, the week, everything was so long and tiring. I carried the tray with so many things in my mind. "What was my mistake?" Mira asked, breaking my thoughts. She is still on the phone."I said, don't answer to anyone. No one is important now. Keep the phone away" I screamed at her and saw that she was scared by my loud voice. Why do I have to say this again and again? "Are you going to keep that phone away or not?" I yelled at her again as she switched it off instantly. Damn, I am too tired now to take care of anything. "If you want to cry, you can leave the place, Mira. I am not going to babysit you." I screamed again not minding about her state or anything. Do I look like a pushover for them? Can they even see how much worked out I am? "I am here trying to make you better and all you are doing is searching for reasons to again cry," I added as I kept the mug. She was looking
Alex's point of view "Don't irritate me. I just wish to sleep and sleep and will never fulfill any of your demands" my mom used to say this whenever she is too tired to do all household chores. Why does this dialogue have to get into my mind all of a sudden? Please, please, let my mom be like before. I don't know if God is even listening to me or not. It's almost 24 hours in the hospital and no one is clear now about her state. The entire day went by in a blink of an eye but the doctor's response didn't change. They were hoping for her to open her eyes because if it didn't happen, she might slip into a coma.Thanks to the stars Clara left the place and I have my time to at least mourn. I can't even cry now as I felt a lack of tears. I couldn't feel my eyes or cheeks as it was numb with so much crying. Anyone would be so surprised to see a guy crying like a kid but I don't care. I turned and saw dad in his most messed state. He didn't even change his dress. It looks like dirt. I ra
Alex looked at the dishes that is been served to him. His hunger died right at the moment and he doesn't want to play any game. Playing with food? Can he believe that his Clara would do this ever? He is hungry for real. "It's especially for you." Clara's sweet voice was layered with so much danger but no one dared to show that as Charlotte was in awe of the couple. "She told me that you love to eat her handmade food only. So she got up early and prepared it for you" Charlotte replied with a constant smile on her lips."Yeah, he won't eat till she serves her handmade food" Edward added to add more misery to Alex who was glaring at his friend with fire eyes."I guess she would have prepared it for Edward also as he will always snatch my food when it comes to her handmade food." That was unexpected from Alex. Alex served the not-so-pleasant food to Edward also and he served himself with a smile. "I better not make any sound or else these guys will involve me also" Jason mumbled as he
Clara felt so emotional to he a part of this family. She expressed how they all accepted her even with all her flaws. She is grateful for Jenny who is more than like her mom. She cares for Clara more than Bella at sometimes. Not even mention about Frank who is exact copy of Alex in taking care of their loved ones. When she finished her speech, Alex lifted her again making all gasp."Time is up. She needs to rest" Alex spoke with a wink as he got to their room to make her sleep. Edward takes care of the rest of the arrangements for the guest. ***** "Alex. I guess" Clara woke up in the middle of the night. She is getting restless and Alex switched on the lights with the same panic. It's their routine to wake up in the middle of the night to see if they neared the due date, if the cramps are actually her labour pain or not."It's really paining this time" Edward sighed at Clara's words as she always gets scare of pain so she gets panic for the false pain."Edward, get the car. Alina,
Alina sat over the shore and she knew that there was still time for her delivery but why does she feel restless all of a sudden. She wiped her forehead for the ninth time and sudden pain shot up her abdomen making her eyes tear up automatically. She grabbed Edward's shoulder with her nails making him shriek out in pain. "It's painting" Alina spoke with difficulty as Edward started getting nervous all of a sudden. He was well.organized and he even was prepared for such a situation. He packed everything in advance. He even came to the nearest place where he could get her to the hospital. But when the time came, he felt paranoid. Edward stood up to get help from his friends while Alina grabbed him again."Ask Jason to get Clara back home. She shouldn't see this. She will be scared." Alina knew exactly what Clara was. She is very strong but too timid from inside. Giving birth to a child is the scariest thing for her. She would freak out if she witnessed such things.Edward grabbed Alex
#####chapter 116 A small picnic was needed for both the couples to run away from the busy schedule. Edward prepared everything necessary which Alina did not even think would be necessary for a one day picnic. "That's absurd. There are still two weeks until my due date and you have prepared everything as if we would be going today. We shall arrange it once we come back" Alina pouted ignoring the heartbeat which was due to the fear of pain. "why are you even trying when I won't listen to you in taking chances in your matter" Edward is annoyed now. Alina has been nagging him since morning not to pack these things."ready?" Alex asked as he entered the jeep. Jason and Sana too joined them but yeah always kissing Alex and Edward to a greater level.Clara sat near Alex as she kept her head over his shoulder. It's her fourth month and she is hell exhausted with the drastic change in her body. She craves almost everything but as soon as she takes one bite of it, she emptied her stomach. Th
"Shall we have a big banner here?" Edward is super excited to have a baby shower function for his wife to welcome their baby. It's the ninth month and he is too excited. "Just have a pink banner here and a blue banner there" Alex arranged everything for Alina. Edward is indeed his brother cum buddy but Alina and he have been sharing a special relationship since then. They want to have a thrilling experience so they denied to know the gender."She had arranged for a photo shoot. If you get late by even a second, I can not guarantee your life" Alex reminded him as Edward widened his eyes in shock. He totally forgot about it. He ran to the backside where everything was set perfectly.The function starts smoothly as Edward's parents blessed the couple and Edward's mom started the ritual. "Don't you dare talk to me" everyone was startled with the noise from the entrance?"What happened, Clara?" Edward ran to her side with concern. "I don't want to talk to this guy!" Clara pointed at Ale
114 "She is kicking." Alina beamed in happiness as the doctor smiled showing her the screen where the tiny baby is not at all in one position to let them watch her. "Edward, did you see?" Alina asked happily as Edward touched the screen to feel the tiny heartbeat in his palm."I haven't felt this weird happiness in my entire life. Can't wait long to have her in my hand" Edward spoke with tears in his eyes as both of them jerked from the position hearing commotion from outside.Alina and Edward went out to see Alex fighting with the receptionist to let him enter the scan room."What happened?" Edward is just too shocked to see his state."Alina, do you know where Clara is?" Alex asked ignoring Edward's question."And why do you even have a phone when you won't pick up?" Alex yelled at Edward with so much anger that Edward was taken aback by the situation. "Relax, I didn't talk to Clara since morning. Did anything happen?" Alina asked grabbing Alex's palm to let him calm down for a b
"I am going to Apple restaurant for just half an hour." Alex got extremely angry with her behavior. Of course, she informed him that her doctor is in the city who treated her during her miscarriage. But didn't he restrict her to travel anywhere alone? He grabbed his keys with the same anger and panic. She should be safe. "Where is she?" Frank asked when Alex came running downstairs."she messaged me that she is going nearby. So I will bring her now." Alex answered curtly as he walked fastly."What was that important?" Frank too was annoyed with her."She went to meet the doctor who treated her back then," Alex paused and looked at Jenny. Should he tell the reason or not?"When she had a miscarriage?" Jenny asked gasping as Frank too widened his eyes."Alex. Don't let her meet. Don't... I mean... Go and get her before she meets her. No, let me call that doctor..." Frank took the mobile and Alex stood there completely taken aback by the sudden expressions of Jenny and Frank."Jenny, do
Alex panicked seeing Clara who was standing at the entrance of her mom's room. He knew that Clara didn't even see Jenny these days. He even promised her that it would happen soon when the doctor examines her improvement. But now seeing her doing this, he felt his heart strangled. She won't do anything rashly. That's what he was uttering again and again till he reaches her side. "Clara" he called her gently so that they both could leave the place before his mom notices them. Alex tried to talk about Clara with Jenny. But she never mentions her name or asked anything about that incident. It was clear that her mind shuts that memory from her system. So Alex wanted to take it slowly. He saw Clara's back stiffened with his presence. She didn't turn to his side instead she was frozen on the spot. He notices that something was wrong as he peeped inside and his entire body froze when he saw his mom in the same state, a numb state. Jenny was frozen and the tears streamed down with no gap. A
"don't strain too much. It's just a few days since you were asleep. Don't stress about anything." The doctor advised Jenny who is still not able to even lift her finger and that stresses her like hell."I have injected for pain. So it will subside soon. Try to speak and be at ease. I will soon get your tests done by the end of this week and let's see what should be done" The doctor left the room with a smile. Alex didn't want to leave her side any moment. "A.l.e.n" Jenny struggled to speak as Alex helped her to drink water."What. What? Do you want something?" Alex asked in his panic voice."Frank?" Jenny asked. "I am here." Frank came there and Alex was just shocked to see his dad in entirely new form. He was dressed up in a stylish t-shirt paired up with jeans and he even did his hair. His light blue jacket was top notch. The coolers he used was the latest one. He completed his looks with his stylish attitude. "Jaan, I am here at your service. Just give me a signal I will bring e
Some time before"Alex, leave me." Clara was wriggling in his arms when he shamelessly pulled her inside as she was about to give him a towel."As you know, my back is still hurting and I couldn't bathe myself" Alex pouted as he loosened his grip. She looked at him and she knew that he was not joking now. His continuous careless sleep made her back stiffened to a severe level and he has trouble in daily activities."I couldn't sleep those days without you." Alex honestly mumbled as her heart constricted. "Don't you think you should fill those days with your care?" he asked cheekily as he winked at her. Clara smiled and didn't protest. She too enjoyed it as she helped him bathe. "If you want to join me?" Alex asked as she threw water to his side to make him shut his mouth. There are certain things that she can never do and he knew that. And just like that, she ran down without noticing the soap foam in her arms. Clara stood there where Alex took the entire scene in the opposite view
