Almyra's POV, "You know, after Xavier stopped going to his place of work where he sees you." His mood changed entirely. "Since that very day it was like a part of him died. He would just lie down there, on the couch, and there are times when he would want to dial your number. I was still blushing when Xavier walked into the room. Our eyes were locked against one another. "Speak of the devil," Gina's voice echoed in the room and Xavier's gaze left mine. It went straight to Gina. He chuckled lightly, "the devil? That's wild." "And that's exactly what I'm trying to say Xavier, that's it," she snapped back at him and rose up from where she sat. I looked at Gina from where I was. She just can't be studied no matter how hard one try. One minute she's crying and the next she's cheerful and lively like she just won a lottery. "What is it that you are saying?" Xavier's deep baritone voice escaped from his lips and Gina paused. "You are also wild, that's it." She said and bursted in
Almyra's POV, "Cole?" I said with a confused look on my face. How did he even know I was in a critical condition? Well, since I was popular it's kind of normal I think he must have heard. But how did he even know the hospital I was admitted to? "Who's he?" Xavier questioned as he jolted me out of my thoughts. His gaze was strictly set at Cole. Cole on the other hand stood where he was, he had a blank expression on his face. "He's a friend of mine actually," I answered Xavier after a long pause. "I was surprised at how he found out about the hospital I was admitted to, that's all." I crossed my arms across my chest defensively. "Oh!" he exclaimed. "I see, it's nice to visit actually. I would give you guys a minute then." Xavier turned to me and nodded before I started hearing receding footsteps and he shut the door close behind him. "Thank you for coming by actually," I inhaled sharply. "But how do you know about it?" I sounded confused, to be honest though I was literal
Almyra's POV, Xavier looked at me after I answered him, I guess it was a heavy question he was about to ask because Xavier never stays mute all in the name of he wanna ask a question. His mouth slowly opened after a sigh, “Almyra,” he called out to me and heaved another sigh. “Why did you do what you did the other time?” His voice was laced with curiosity and he ran his hands through his hair “I did a lot of things some minutes ago so can you be specific?” I furrowed my eyebrows, “please.” I spoke in a low but firm tone and Xavier nodded, “Taking me by surprise?” His eyes was filled with unspoken joy. “Oh!” I exclaimed, “ain't it a normal thing?” “Yeah, it's…it's normal actually,” he stuttered, “but despite everything thing that I've done that's why I'm asking.” All the misdeed in which he has done has now begin to replay in his head I guess. He literally gave me a ten percent attention and gave the rest of them to Kitara, it was something I could easily say without comprom
Almyra's POV, My eyes were strictly fixed on Xavier waiting for his answers, I was not patient, not even for a second. Every second he looked at me felt like he had been looking at me for an hour. “You should complete the statement, Xavi.” I snapped at him again. He had a confused look on his face, he was controlling something. I guess he did not want to flame up like I am doing. “You don't wanna hear what I want to say do you?” His voice made me pause. “Of course Xavier, I wanna hear what it is that you have to say.” I placed some strands of the hair behind me and heaved a sigh. “I love you Almyra,” he paused. “But… It was this “but” I had an issue with, he should tell me if he loves me halfway only and not completely. “...but I don't know what came over me and why I mistreated you the other time.” His voice was firm and serene. A part of me was washed with relief, I guess I was too fast to jump into conclusion, I should have waited to hear from him completely. “How am I sup
Almyra's POV, He looked at me with a disappointed face and I had an assuring look on my face. “I guess I was too fast to say that,” he said after a sharp inhale. “I'm sorry about that.” “No, that's not it,” I muttered under my breath. We just met after several months of divorce so how am I supposed to say yes? Not that I could say no also, I was so stuck in the middle. “We have been divorced for some months so I don't think we can just get married that easily,” I spoke with a hint of empathy in my voice. “I see.” He shut his eyes closed for a second. I never wanted it to be this way Xavier, I never wanted it sound this way. I was not rejecting you. Suddenly, my thoughts drifted towards an idea. “What about if we just start afresh?” His face tilted in shock and surprise. “We were never divorced in the first place.” Did he suffer a fatal damage to his skull that made him lose his memory while I was away? We both signed that paper that day, so why is he saying this? “What d
Almyra's POV, The car's headlight blurred my vision of other things around me, the engine kept roaring like a beast as it approached me. All of a sudden, it stopped and the engine died down, is supposed to even be used to play in a way or two? I was the only one with the surprised look on my face, why? Xavier or Gina never had the surprised look on their face like I did, color me impressed. The silence between the three of us was never ending. But finally, I broke it. “What's happening guys?” I shifted my gaze towards them but their eyes was still fixed on the car. “I don't think you would be able to drive with a light head so I told Xavier to call you his driver,” Gina sighed. “To take you home.” “So I did you the favour of calling the elite mastero,” Xavier stretched his hand towards the car. “The one and only Benjamin, you could call him Ben for short anyway.” Pathetic, why was he talking like they gave birth to me yesterday? I mean almost everyone knows what the short n
Almyra's POV, “Who…who the fuck are they Ben!?” I stuttered as I yelled under my breath. My voice revealed how tense I was, it could not be hidden in any possible way. If I'm to die then Xavier's face should be the last thing I should see so why does it have to be now? “I have no idea of who they are,” Ben successfully gained control of the steering wheel again and the car surged forward the more, its engine kept roaring as it surged forward. “We just have to lose them first,” his voice was uneasy and he inhaled sharply. “Then we can call the fucking cops!” He yelled in frustration. The black car surged forward to where our car was and it slowly brought down the window. My face was diverted to them and it felt like I was magnetized to the car, I could not take my eyes off as the window slowly came down. But it never stopped the car from pursuing ours, and finally a female looked towards our direction with an evil grin. “Oh my fucking days!” I brought ours down on seeing who it
Almyra's POV, The look on Keith's face was one in which I've never seen before. Anger, rage, terror. I coughed slightly to clear my throat, "Are you ever gonna let me walk through that door?" I motioned my hands towards the sitting room before placing my palms on my forehead. Keith just arched his eyebrow and gritted his teeth, "where the fuck have you been Almyra!?" He yelled. But even in that yelling, I could sense pity clouding his anger and love, taking over his rage. "Where did you think I went to Keith, where?" I let out a slight scoff before laughing sarcastically. Of course it's weird for him to ask a question like this. Me talking to myself inwardly was cut short as I heard Keiran's voice in the sitting room. "Who is that Keith?" His baritone voice pierced out of the sitting room. "It's Almyra," Keith was a zero percent hesitant to speak. Like what the fuck is going on with them? It was not long after Keith's response before I started hearing pounding footsteps,
