By Authoress Isabella
ALEXANDER POV
With anger in me, I walked to open the door to see the person who ruined the most important moment of my life, but I was shocked to see my mom and my grandfather in front of my doorstep including Nora, I could see the worried look on their faces. Quickly I was caught off guard by a hug from my mom and then Nora followed, after a while, they pulled away from me and they went inside as I locked the door.
“What happened?”. My grandfather asked.
” I don’t understand, what are you guys doing here?”. I asked confusedly.
“We saw what happened”. My mom said as she showed me a video of me with Aurora at the scene.” What were you thinking son, don’t you know that was dangerous.”. She quarrels.
“But Mom nothing happened, we should be happy that no one died”. I replied.
” What if the bomb had exploded what would have become of you”. Nora said and I sighed tiredly at them.
“Son, how is the young lady, is she okay?”. My grandfather asked politely and I could see the angry look my mom was giving him.
” What are you saying Dad, aren’t you supposed to be scolding rather than asking about the girl”. She said.
“But he did nothing wrong, why should I scold him, we should be proud of him because he is a hero”. He said and my mom frowned.
” She is fine grandfather”. I replied.
“That’s a relief”. he smiled.
” Please, stay away from that girl before she puts your life at risk, you are my only son”. She said.
“Mom, am fine, nothing happened”. I said getting pissed off, then Nora walk up to me and sat down at the edge of the chair as she encircled her arms around my neck sobbing quietly.
” I was scared to death, I thought I would never see you again”. She sniffs and I take her arms off my neck.
“Am fine”.
” She was worried about you”. My mother said and I rolled my eyes. “So, have you had anything to eat, we will prepare something for you”.
” No Mom, am fine”.
“Don’t say that, Nora, and I will make something for you”. She stood up and left with Nora to the kitchen before I could say anything.” Son, you made an order before?”. She asked and I quickly rushed to the kitchen.
“Um, yeah, I was planning on eating them later”. I place the food inside the refrigerator.
” Okay”. She said
“Um, Alex, can I go to your room I need to change into something else”. Nora said
” You–“I got interrupted by my mother.
“Of course, why are you taking permission from him, this is your house too”.
” Okay”. She left before I could stop her.
“Mom”.
“What? Get used to her as your fiancee”. she said and continued what she was doing.
I sighed as I became uncomfortable, I didn’t want them to know that Aurora was here. quickly I rushed to stop Nora from entering my room, I got there too late, but I was surprised not to see Aurora in the room.
” Um, do you find anything”. I asked while searching around the room thinking where Aurora could be.
“No, I was about to”. She walked to my wardrobe and was about to open it, I rushed to stop her and I could see the confusing look on her face.” Is everything okay?”.
“Yeah, I want to help you out”. I smiled nervously as I opened the wardrobe quietly to see if Aurora was hiding there, but unfortunately, she wasn’t, I sighed in relief and brought out one of the T-shirts and sweater pants and gave them to her.” Here, have this”.
“Thank you, Alex, you are so sweet”. She smiled.” I will make a change in the bathroom”.
“Bathroom”. I said to myself and I quickly wondered if maybe Aurora was hiding there. I rushed to stop her quickly.” hold on a sec. Let me see if I flushed the toilet well because I made use of it a while ago”.
“Okay”. She smiles.
” Sure, one moment”. I left to the bathroom and searched every corner she wasn’t there. “Where could she be”. I wondered and then came out.” You can go in”. I said and she went inside and started searching every corner of the room for her, but I couldn’t find her, I wondered if she had gone outside the balcony because it was cold outside. I was about to take a step to the balcony when Nora interrupted me from behind.
“Am done”. She said and I turned to her.” How do I look?”.
“Er, great, my clothes fit you better”.
” Thank you, so, shall we?”.
“Um, sure”. We left the room.

AURORA POV
All my years of being with Charles I have never felt like this for him before with the way my heart beat so fast for Alex, his touches and kisses are unexplainable, with the way he moved his mouth to mine and kissed me. sending his heated breaths directly into my mouth. The initial touch was soft and slow, and then he kissed me harder, his lips moving against mine with restrained intensity. He slid his hand from my hip down to my thigh that was when we got interrupted by the ringing of the doorbell, I had to make him stop in other to go and answer the door.
When he left I felt excited as I covered my body under the blanket memorizing the kiss, I had never been this happy in my life before and I wanted more of it. Just then I heard his mother’s voice from downstairs and that of his grandfather and Nora as well, my heart flinched.
” Oh no, they are here, I don’t want them to see me here”. I was thinking of what to do when I heard the sound of a lady’s heels approaching my direction.”Oh no “. I stood up from the bed quickly and I was looking for a place to hide, I tried the wardrobe it was too revealing and I might get caught, I rushed to the bathroom I was uncomfortable with it and then my mind moved to the balcony, it was cold outside, but I had no choice but to hide there is the only safest place to hide. I squeezed myself under the cold and my stomach began to growled as I could hear their conversation. I squat near the chair holding my stomach from growling. After a while I heard the door lock I knew they left already, so quickly I rushed back into the room shivering, I sat on the bed and used the blanket to wrap around my body.

NARRATOR POV
An hour later, Alexander and his family were having their meal and his thought was on Aurora.
” Son, do you like the food?”.His mother asked jolting him out of his thoughts.
“Um, yes Mom, is nice”. He replied.
” Good, so eat more”.
“I will”. He said and was eating sluggishly.
” Son, I was hoping Nora could spend a night here”. She said and Alexander choked on his food and he quickly sipped from his water.
“Are you okay?”. Nora asked.
” Yes, am fine”. he takes another gulp of his water.
“Nora, would you like to spend a night here?”. She asked.
” Um –” she got interrupted.
“I don’t think so mom, I will be going out later to Richard’s place and I might pass the night there”. He said.
” Oh, really?”.
“Yes, Mom”.
” Okay, maybe next time”. She said and they continued eating.
Some minutes later, they were done eating and Nora cleared the dishes as they were ready to go.
“Hmm, Alex, can I wear your shirt home, I think I look more comfortable in this than my wear”. Nora said.
” Sure, you can have it “.
” Thank you”. She smiled and hugged him quickly, his mother smiled after them and then she pulled away from him.
“I will see you soon son”. his grandfather said.
” Okay grandfather”. He saw them off to their car, they entered and drove off as he waved at them. Soon, he rushed inside and locked the door behind him as he rushed back to his room. “Aurora”. he called and Aurora came out from the balcony.
” Alex”. she called and he turned to her as he rushed to pull her into his arms caressing her body.
“Am sorry I kept you waiting for so long”.
” Is okay, I understand”. She said and they pulled away from each other still in each other arms. just then their lips crushed on each other softly. “Alex”. she called between kisses.
” Mm”. He replied.
“Am famished”. She said and broke out from the kiss as her stomach growled.
” Oh, am sorry, I will fix you something to eat immediately”. he said and rushed out. Aurora smiled after him and sat down on the bed.
Some minutes later, both were in the dining eating and Alexander was staring lovingly at her and she became nervous.
“You are not eating?”. She asked seeing him not eating.
” Nah, the food is all yours”. he said.
“But I can’t finish them all alone?”.
” Don’t worry, you need the food more than I do”.
“Okay”. She blushed and continued eating.
” So, what now?”. he asked and Aurora stared confusedly at him.
“I don’t get you.”
“What I mean is that, will report back to my company”.
“Um”. She sputtered.
” I need you back Aurora, please come back”.
“I will think about it, sir”.
” Sir? What happened to the name you have been calling me”.
“Um”
“I like it when you call me ‘Alex’ “.
” Okay, I will think about it”. She blushed.
“I will give you enough time to think about it”
They smiled at each other and she continued eating.
