Alexis

There is a moment between sleeping and waking up ... the moment you take a deep breath ;come out of your REM state of mind , and open your eyes . I call that moment ; the breath of life. It is a pivotal moment when you realize that, you've made it through the night and you have lived to see another day... And then you breathe out. I call that a moment of thankfulness. Then there is a moment when all your switches jack up , and after being out of it for a while even if it was a couple of hours you consider yourself lucky . 

If you wake up next to someone you love to Pluto and back; when you wake up knowing that you have someone out there who cares that you are alive , or wake up knowing you will overcome whatever obstacles you face because you believe that everything is working for you and not against you... you are blessed.

I have always had the fear of waking up and no one being there. I've lived alone for a while now so

    AaronI miss her. I miss Lexi so much. I was told by Brent that ;she woke up the day I went back to the office. I tried to call her but her phone was disconnected. I hadn't been to my penthouse loft for the whole week . I wanted to stay at the estate because it was closer to work. I was going back to the loft this evening. It was our usual family dinner night. I wanted to go out for a change with both Mary and Dave, so I made a reservation for us at an Italian restaurant by the hill. When I arrived at the loft I touched base with Dave, got cleaned up and Mary drove us to the restaurant. Once we were seated we ordered our food, and started to talk ."So Dave how was your week?"" Dad it was fine. ""Okay. ""Aunty Mary tell dad what you did ... or I will."Something was up. Mary looked guilty. Something in me wondered what did she do. I loo

    Alexis#song Max -Lights lowAlexisDreaming is good . What's even better is remembering what you dreamt during the night in the morning. .. However there comes a time when you need to wake up and stop dreaming. The question I always ask is; Why should we stop dreaming ? I have a tendency to answer my own questions while I talk and try and make sense of whatever the hell got me curious . You see dreams in a way are like reality .What you do consciously affects you at a subconscious level. As much as dreams are your brains way of escaping reality ...dreaming is your subconscious's way of making sense of your true nature ; about how you feel, what you really think of someone , and what scares you. You'd be surprised as to the levels you can ascend to when your mind is quiet. Dreaming in any form is important. It helps you unlock your imagination , and reconnect with the kid inside of you. The kid that believed that t

At a point where I thought Mary had messed things up for me by telling her that I didn't love her, Alexis told me; she wanted me to explain myself, and it was unlike me to just send someone to tell her how I felt. We had a really amazing make up and catch up session, that lasted till this morning .I am a heavy sleeper and last night after Dave called me to say ;goodnight , I forgot to switch my alarm on . I wasn't going into work today in fact I was due back on Monday but I didn't tell Lexi. I was slowly coming around and my baby love wasn't in my arms but I could feel a weird sensation which felt familiar down south.The last time I felt that was on my wedding night and none of the women I was with dared to go down, because I had a nasty scar from the day I

I cannot believe you ."I run after him and he was looking for something in his jacket." Aaron what are you looking for ?""The box. "" which one.""You only want me for sex . That's it.""You are over reacting and no I don't. "" I want to make you mine but you don't want us to have kids."" I didn't say that . What's gotten into you?"Aaron started breathing rapidly and it was a clear indication I triggered something." You are already planning on leaving me. Everyone I've loved just walks out on me or gets taken away . I'm already losing you."Aaron sat on the bed and started taking deep breaths. He also covered his face ."

    #Song - Halsey Without meAlexisFriends ... A very complicated but given what I had heard and what just happened . I think its apt .My evening and early morning were quiet eventful. Tina unfriended me in real life which was a surprise because we were good friends until she called me this morning telling me that we are no longer friends she was unfriending me in real life. On top of that her new friend Mary just told Aaron I have no friends .I've dealt with fraudulent friends before; I guess you can say that I've had experience. It starts with you wishing them happy birthday ; but when it's their turn to wish you happy birthday , you either get nothing in the form of a wish, or present.You kind of let it slide ;because you honestly want to believe that there is a reasonable explanation as to why absolutely no one in your circle of so called friends ,

    AaronA wise woman once told me that; there is no such thing as coincidence, you're either meant to cross paths again or meet at a later stage. I am messing up what she said and she would correct me if she could. My day was eventful and I hadn't anticipated it to end the way it did after what happened. When I called Lexi she picked up and didn't hang up on me . I told her that I wanted to really see her and I was invited to a dinner I almost forgot about but Amy called me and I said yes. It turns out we were invited to the same dinner and I was seated next her. She looked amazing with the pink top and her hair tied up in a pony tail .Her eyes looked a bit swollen but she looked beautiful. I hated myself for what happened but as long as my sister is in good hands and my son is okay ... I am fine ... well half fine because I missed my girlfriend. When I made it to the restaurant with Amy; Tina , and Gavin on time and we were seated after getting Amy

    #song -Major -why I love youAlexisThere is something about big cars that make me fall asleep . The last thing I remember about last night was coming home with my baby love. I love him so much and I am thankful for him .I took a deep breath and opened my eyes . I needed to know what time it was and where was I? My watch was off so were my shoes and pants. I wasn't in my pink top but I was wearing a sky blue crew neck sweater that went up to my knees . It smelt of normal fabric softener. I used the essential oil variant . It was a bit chilly because of the rain last night and besides the fresh memory of the dinner that happened last night ; I felt all warm and fuzzy inside because I was with Aaron. The wind was howling outside and it didn't make sense because, it was summer to come think of it and there was a cold front. I reached out on my bedside; stretched and slid the covers off . The bed was huge and the décor

At a point where I thought everything was coming together again, everything started falling apart. I knew my son was angry when he found his mothers pictures in a box of things I kept of Lara. I was going to give it to him on his birthday , but he found it when he was looking for something . The first question he asked was ; why did Alexis have similar features to his mother. I told him ; it was a coincidence. He snapped out of the blue and told me I was lying, he said; you are a sick selfish human being. I sat him down after his rant and I told him everything with regards to what happened when he was five years old. I also told him that I fought hard to get him back , and that I was sorry . We were still on moody terms with each other. He was moody and irritable if not mean to me until the accident happe

    AlexisI am not afraid of dreaming. I am afraid of staying awake and not allowing myself to dream big enough and believe that I can do ,and be anything I want. Even a super shero. I am also not afraid of waking up and dealing with the fact that I have an unfinished life, that I still want to live and make the most out of it…When you are living you constantly ask yourself if you are doing enough? When you are going you ask yourself if you did all you wanted and was it enough. When you’re gone what you never did is done and in between those three steps; your whole life flashes before your eyes.When I rolled down the stairs; I was afraid . I was afraid that I had failed my unborn baby by not keeping him safe, afraid that my relationship with David was never going to be the same , and more than that I was afraid that I had robbed my brother of becoming an uncle and Aaron becoming a father again.

    AaronIn a split second everything can change.After leaving Alexis alone to prepare lunch , because Mary was held hostage by her crazy roommate who injured herself . I made the necessary arrangements to bring my sister home and hire in a caregiver to make sure she was stable .I dropped her off at the pent house and told her I would see her tomorrow. On my way back Lexi called me and I told her I was on the way. I had taken a short cut to get to the Estate because I was worried about David.He was behaving strangely this morning before he went to hang out with Angelo. Cleo had also called me to ask if everything was okay with both Dave and me. Truth be told we were not okay. He was mad at me because I apparently do not consider his feelings. When I asked him if he missed Alexis he didn't answer me he just went to the games room ,and to top it all off he locked the door so that I couldn

    AlexisWe only appreciate something after it has been taken away from us. We are often told to be thankful for every little thing, and I always say; being thankful should be habitual.Sometimes we don’t know how good we have it until something happens, and your world is turned upside down. I have a theory . “Tragedy” has a way of bringing things into focus. The process is there for a reason and however long it takes; you will learn the lessons that help you either elevate your levels of perception and trust your sixth sense, or open up a door to more questions that lead you to the right answers, and hopefully you can find a way out of the maze you have been trying to navigate. We are here on purpose. Sticking to the task at hand is a given, the only time we falter is when we focus on other peoples blessings instead of ours. Success comes in different phases and forms. Learn to wait your turn and trust in God&r

    AaronAlexis is really unpredictable. Her unpredictability can be both exciting and unsettling at times, but it makes sense at the end of the day.When I entered the house Alexis was walking around barefoot in my kitchen looking serious. She got the hint earlier that I wanted her in our home. When she recognized my presence ; she smiled and blew a kiss at me , and for a moment my heart skipped a beat and fell in love again. It was already mid afternoon and I hadn’t eaten so; so I headed to the kitchen to go make lunch for us both.I didn’t have much in the fridge but I had enough to whip up a meal. Usually I would ask Dave what he wanted , and he would order it in. I cooked for him every now and then but, I could tell she missed Lexi as much as I did. She planned meals and she made sure we all ate as a family with Mary included. She took a seat on the comfy stools in front of the counter and loo

    AlexisThe toughest conversations are the ones we’ve never had with our heart. Conversations with heart are always honest; pure, real and non pretentious. It is a non judgmental zone where you can bare all without any fear… The heart always knows the truth no matter what condition it is in; your heart will always lead you to the right answer . Your heart will always lead you home.I have had moments when I’ve doubted the very love I believed in.The day Simon Nathan broke my heart was one of them, the other was the day I lost Ben, and now… Now it’s whether or not I love Aaron. For the longest of times I have struggled with letting anyone in or talk about how I really felt about a situation. When I got together with Aaron over the time we were together, I had lost a part of myself. In my head I foolishly believed that true I had to sacrifice a part of myself to be with him. Tr

    AaronThree weeks laterMary relapsed again. I blame myself for that happening. Ever since the shooting I have been recovering very well and I am healing.Christmas was different this year though. Mary was okay until she lost it at Cleo for no apparent reason. Sarah was also shocked and as I suspected she gave Lexi hell in Cape Town. Lexi had been away and I hadn’t seen her in a long time a month to be exact and May went as far as blocking her on all accounts. Carl and the Perelli bunch joined us for the Christmas lunch.Alexis was six months pregnant and what hurt the most was missing out on a lot of things. The shooting wasn’t her fault .When I called CT he told me; She was out and she didn’t want to talk to me about anything. I knew that he bought a house just down the road and I had the innate feeling that Lexi was around. Our connection was and is always strong .

    44AlexisFeelsFear is the enemy of courage. Courage is what we have, when we look fear in the face and tell it to go to hell and stay there because life is calling. When life calls we answer ; however when life happens we react. How we react can determine the outcome of the situation. Given what was 'going on I couldn’t lose it and become a drama queen. Drama has its benefits when you want to make a statement ,and when you do make the statement make sure you don’t trip and fall on your face… it happens to the best of us when we least expect. Courage and kindness are not really rare traits. They are embedded in us ; we just need to flick the switch. What courage does is give us the power to overcome and with that comes understanding. Through understanding you learn to see a situation for what it is and take a gentle approach in helping someone. Kindness has never lost a battle or war. Coupled with hum

All I saw was smoke and Carl swearing. It wasn’t until I heard a loud thud on the floor that my heart stopped. Security had come through and a couple of other guys who had the same ring as Carlo . As soon as the smoke cleared Carl bent down to pick me up and give me a hug.“ Hey honey are you okay?”I nodded and looked for Aaron.“Aaron Carl where is Aaron?”I pulled back and looked at the kitchen island . I couldn’t see him .“Aaron!”Carl let go of me and ran to where Aaron was. My heart was already beating fast but it broke when I saw Aaron lying on the floor with a
