"I had no idea that my own brother would do something like this to me!" I said to Alex as the two of us had reached far away from Clare's room.
I was about to successfully complete my mission and prove to the girl that I didn't mean any harm. I wanted her to be at ease and ignore the fact that I had been rude to her the last night.
But because I had already shown myself as a bit arrogant and uncaring, I couldn't pretend to be apologetic in front of her.
So I decided to use up Alex's identity to pretend to be him as he was actually a bit sweeter and apologize on my behalf. But my brother proved to be my worst enemy. He came unannounced and debunked me in front of her.
"Are you even listening to what I have to say?" I shouted as Alex walked past me in a jiffy. Realizing that he was ignoring me, I stood in my place for a few moments.
