"This is your life from now on darling" said Bryan as he moved closer to her face. Her heart fluttered a bit thinking Bryan was about to kiss her but he just went closer and then pulled back.
"OK my dear, I have to go now, you heard me right? whatever you want let Fred know. I have a meeting in thirty minutes, see you later and say me well to your mom she will be fine you will see" said Bryan assuring her all will be well.
As soon as he turns his back on Alexa, Bryan noticed Richie coming towards the are where him and Alexa was...."hmmm" he thought to himself, as he turned back to see Alexa who was still standing and staring at the envelopes Bryan had handed over to her for her brother's school.
Bryan moved closer to her, she noticed his shadow and she lifted up her head.
"Did you forget something Bryan?" Alexa asked wandering what again he had to say or give her this time around.
Bryan quickly wrapped his hands around her neck as he pulled her face close to his and pressed this lips against hers. He was tall so as he pulled her close, she had stretch her neck obviously which was already been pulled by Bryan, her eyes were opened in shock even though their lips touched each other's. Bryan stopped still closing his eyes and then he gently this time around rested his lips on Alexa's.
This time around Alexa's eyes closed as well and he Body was not too tensed again, she relaxed and allowed Bryan kiss her.
In few seconds he stopped again and looked at her eyes and gave a very weird smile and released Alexa, then he kissed her forehead and said...."I will see you later my love, please do not worry about your mom OK?" Bryan said still smiling at the still perplexed Alexa.
She was dying yo ask why he did that in public and what prompted the whole affection he was displaying. As shocked as she was, Alexa smiled back.
"Do not look, but your ex is down the lobby and I had to make sure we looked like a couple" said Bryan interrupting the smile on Alexa's face.
But she was dying to look, she could not help herself and then she pretended to want to use her fingers to pack her hair side ways as she waved it as well and then turned over the shoulders of Bryan and saw Richie looking at them with so much despair and also serious jealousy. She felt a bit sad because she had cared about him so much so that she had dreams of marrying him, but her dream shattered before her eyes as soon as she started noticing all Richie did and wanted her to do by force. Basing their relationship on sex and extreme wild fun when be knew that she had a sick mother to Care for and really was not that type of girl. She had thought he really liked her for who she was and she was satisfied with the idea of being with him for ever but forever is gone away.
So as soon as she saw him looking at them, she not remembered the good times they had in a split second, but she also remembered the last incident that happened not quite fifteen minutes ago and then she got infuriated by his gaze.
"Alexa you just looked, well have you seen him" Bryan asked.
"Ahh yeah," she now also played along and had a very wide smile on her face and said out loud knowing fully well that Richie was still watching them.
"I will Honey, please take care of yourself and thank you for coming to check up on my mother, I will let you know as soon as she is out of surgery OK?" Said Alexa smiling like a new wife still following Bryan's lead.
"OK honey, please do." He kisses her hands and turned and left.
While walking down the lobby, Richie came to obstruct him, so they were yet again face to face and then Bryan smiled at him with the confidence he had knowing what he and Alexa had done, knowing it really got to Richie and yet Bryan was happy knowing he had a little bit of revenge on Richie because of the way he treated Alexa previously.
"Do we have a problem Mr. Ex?"Bryan sarcastically asked Richie.
"We will see about.... we shall see fake rich guy." Replied Richie.
Bryan had that dangerous smirk on his face and walked pass Richie brushing his manly shoulders with Richie's and just Left walking like a boss that he actually is.
Richie turned and noticed Alexa was looking at the quick fall out he just had with her so called husband and he walked towards her and said...."How can you be with that guy?"
"My husband you mean?" she asked back.
"When did you get..."
"That is enough Richie please leave me alone."
She walks back to her sit and waited for the doctors and her mom.
He looked at her, rolled his eyes and just left angrily.
**********
Tired from the wait, in few minutes she slept off and then was awakened by a call from her brother.
"Hey, Jerry how are you? why are you calling? are you not supposed to still be in school?" asked Alexa to her brother.
"I was having a serious stomach ache and took permission to leave school, I can not find mom." said Jerry.
"Yeah. we are at the hospital."
"Is mom OK?"
"Yeah. She is getting her operation done."
"Wait!! for real? but how? where did you get the money?" asked Jerry. He was shocked.
"Do not worry, will tell you about it later."
"OK sister. I am on my way now. Sis?"
"Yes."
"I love you sister, you are the best, see you soon." he hangs up the fine and screamed for joy...."Yesss.."
As soon as the call ended, the theatre door light showed green and immediately the door was opened.
Alexa turned instantly and saw her mom being brought out of the room accompanied by the doctors and nurses. She saw them coming she smiled at the doctors who removed their surgical mask and smiled with the assurance that yes her mom is fine and it was a successful operation.
"Finally." Alexa said in Joy.
