BUT NOT MY TWIN : CHAPTER 41 – 50
By Succie
Chapter 42
Cora sits outside the hospital building, and her mind flashback to all the times, she insulted and said bad and hurtful words to Clark.
She also had a flashback on the very day Clark first confessed his love for her, and how she threw the bouquet of flowers on him, and insulted his life.
“You are really a j.erk Clark, how could you come to save me after everything I did to you, I was never kind to you, but you risk your life just to save me, you are a je.rk, you are je.rk”. Cora said sobbing in tears.
And someone gave her a hankie, and when she raised her head, she sees Leah smiling at her.
“Le…ah”. She muttered.
Leah sits with her, and cleans Cora’s tears with the hankie.
“You should stop crying already Cora, I thought the doctor said Clark will wake up anytime soon”.
And Cora just look at her.
“What are you doing here Leah”.
“Trying to console you Cora, I can see how badly you are hurting, and am sorry Ryan added to your pains, he is always so coaxy anytime he is angry, am sorry about that Cora,,and you aren’t at fault, you didn’t plan for those thugs to rape you right, so don’t put Ryan’s words into consideration,,you aren’t fault, okay”. Leah said with a smile cleaning Cora’s tears.
“Why Leah”.
“Why what”.
“Why are you consoling me, after everything I did to you, you should be mad at me, not trying to be there for me”.
“And why should I be mad at you, I know you did all of that out of jelousy, your mom accepted me as her daughter, and the boy you love became my boyfriend, you were so mad at me and wasn’t thinking straight, that why you did all of that, so am not mad at you Cora”.
“Where on Earth do you come from Leah, why are you so kind-hearted”.
“I grew up in a church Cora, and I almost became a Nun”.
“No wonder you have such a kind heart”. Cora muttered and Leah smilies.
“Everyone has a little good in them Cora”.
“Everyone but me, I have done a lot of bad things to people, and I almost killed you twice, I keep saying I turn out this way because my mom neglected me, but I guess am wrong, you and Clark grew up without a parents but you both grew up into kind-hearted people, maybe my mom was right, am possessed by a de.mon”.
Leah looks at her and laughs lightly.
“Why are you laughing Leah, do you think is funny,,,am not jocking Leah, I think am possessed by a demon”.
“That not true Cora, you ain’t possessed by a de.mon, I think you did all what you did just to gain your mom’s attention, no one becomes evil without a reason, and also everyone has a chance to change if they want to”.
Cora looks at her and sighs.
“I see why Ryan fall in love with you Leah, we May LOOK ALIKE, but you are so different from me, you have compassion for others, but as for me, I don’t”.
“You can also changed your ways Cora, if not for anyone but for Clark, he risk his life just to make sure you weren’t touch by those thugs, that shows he loves you alot Cora”.
“I know that Leah, am the only girl he has ever had eyes for, and despite my nasty and arrogant behavior, he keeps on loving me, and the foolish me keeps chasing him away, I thought I hate him, but when he got shot, that was when I realized how much his presence matters to me, that was when I realized he was so important to me, that when I realized that I can’t go on without him, that when I realized I love him even without knowing, I was so blinded by my hate and anger for everyone, without even realizing who I truly love, how could I have mistaken love for hatred, am so foolish Leah, am a big fool”. Cora said crying.
Leah looks at her and slowly pulls her into a hug.
“That how life is Cora, sometimes we don’t realize people who are important to us until we loose them, some people may realize it quickly and others don’t, but that doesn’t mean they are fools, so you aren’t a fool for not quickly realizing that you love Clark, all what you need to do is make up for those times you were mean to him”. Leah said patting her.
Cora disengage the hug and looks at Leah.
“Thank you Leah”.
And Leah nods with a smile.
“So you remember everything about yourself”.
“Yes Cora, and I will be going back tomorrow”.
“What about your schooling, you already made a life here in Seoul, don’t tell me you are going to leave Ryan behind, mom also wants you to stay here with her, that the reason she didn’t tell you about yourself in the first place”.
“Am going to come back, I just want to see how Mina and my God mother are doing”.
Cora looks at her and nods her head.
“Will you come in now, am going to make sure that Ryan of mine doesn’t speak to you harshly”.
Cora chuckles with a smile.
“I know he is your Ryan, you didn’t have to add that”.
Leah smiles.
“So are you coming in”.
“Am just going to stay outside for a while Leah”.
“Okay I will go in, but don’t cry anymore okay”.
And Cora nods with a smile.
Leah smiles and stands to her feet, she has walked seven feets away from Cora, when Cora stood up to her feet.
“Leah”.
Leah turns to her.
“Yes Cora”.
“I haven’t apologize yet”.
Leah rolls her eyes and asked.
“For what Cora”.
“For what I did to you, am sorry Leah, am sorry for trying to kill you twice”.
Leah smiles and walks up to her.
“Is fine Cora, I have forgiven you a long time ago, so you don’t have to apologise anymore, am just happy that you are somehow different from the Cora I used to know.”
“I want to change Leah, I want to mend my old ways, this is for myself, for Clark, and for everyone who I have hurt before, I just hope they can forgive me”.
“Of course they Will Cora, before when everyone thought I was you, I apologise to them, they forgave me right away, so I have no doubt everyone in school is going to forgive you”.
“Why about Clark, do you think he will forgive me too, and continue loving me like he used to”.
“Of course he will, and if he somehow change, them try to win his heart back, just like how you stole his heart before”.
Cora looks at her and smiles, and Leah smiles too.
“What about you Leah”.
“I already told you I have forgiven you, you don’t…”.
“Will you be my Twin”.
“Huh”. Leah muttered in surprised.
“I know it sounds crazy, because I never accepted you as my LOOK ALIKE, but Leah, our kind is rare to find, because we were never born Twins, but yet, we look so much like each other, we are the same reflection of each other Leah, so I want you to be my Twin, and this time around I mean it, no tricks attached, so what do you say Leah, will you be my Twin”.
Leah looks at her and nods with a smile.
Cora smiles.
“But I still remain the senior Leah”. Cora said and flings her long hair to the back.
“Huh”.
“Well, I was born in the month of March, when were you Born.
“June”
“See,,,am still the senior, so you have to respect me, even if we are now Twins”.
“Fine I Will, senior Twin sister, Happy now”.
“Yes I am, kid Twin sister”. Cora said, and flings her long hair to the back.
And both of them laugh, and hugs each other smiling.
