Alya sat on the bed taking on her appearance from the mirror at her front. She looked skinny, bandaged forehead,eyes with black rings around it, plasters around her face, a cut on her lip, blisters around her neck.
One could get a hint of how terrible the accident was with her appearance, she thought. She looked like someone resurrected from the pit of death.
The door opened and she turned, from the angle she was seated, she couldn't make out the person's face, the person who turned out to be a lady walked in and a gasp flew out of Alya's broken lips
" April" She called bolting out of the bed, she snatched the drip from her hand and yanked off the blanket. ' Ouch! That kinda hurt' she thought.
April who was talking to a nurse at the door turned at her name being called and went wide eyed. " Alya " She breathed out softly, she wasn't expecting her to be awake.
Tears filled up her eyes as she caught her friend in a very bone-crushing hug
" Oh Alya! " She cried
She shook in Alya's warm embrace as she sobbed
" I missed you so much Alya"
Alya cuddled more into her arms, she felt the emptiness in her, loneliness of a long time sleep but now it was filled up with just one heartily hug. Yeah, she did miss her friend too, so much
" Hey Alya " Landon called behind them
" Hey lan " Alya moved away from April, landon walked to her and gave a brotherly hug as he kissed her hair.
He pulled away and patted her cheek. Yesterday when they had came to see her, she was till asleep to the late hours of the evening. It was almost like she was still in coma but now seeing her awake, her blue eyes glittering with much happiness, he was happy, very happy.
He wanted saying something but he was lost of words, the room went silent with each lost in their thought
" Alya I am sorry" April broke the silence first, Alya turned to her
" The accident, I am so sorry about it... "
" Shhh " Alya shushed her, she walked closer and hugged her again
" No need April, no one knew something like that would occur "
" You won't wish for that to happen so don't apologise, it was unexpected " She said wiping April's tears
" Though I don't remember anything about the accident " She chuckled drily running her over her forehead
" Forget about it Alya " April said and Alya nodded holding her into an embrace again, she couldn't get enough of the warm feeling of her best friend. The doctor came in
" Good morning Alya " He greeted
" Good morning doctor "
" If you will both please, I would love to talk to landon " He said gesturing landon to follow him.
Landon excused himself to follow the doctor leaving behind the two friends sobbing quietly in each hands, Alya's time in coma had changed all of them, every single one of them.
Especially Rex.
Rex sat tiredly on the chair, his long leg crossed over the other under the table, he raised up his head and closed his eyes.
His mind drifted to Alya
' How was she faring now? 'He thought
His mind was huddled with thoughts of his Alya
He couldn't think straight
He remembered the way she looked.
Very thin and sick
He felt to pamper his fiancee, spoil her till she looked all fleshy again with her graceful look, he wants to pet his little bunny again.
But he was reminded each time he has those thoughts that she don't remember again.
His sweet momma had forgotten about him
Forgotten about the moments they shared
It was real so fucking real
He tried pushing away the thoughts but it was hard, it almost like he was pushing Alya away and his heart was not agreeing to that.
Alya will remain deep down his heart, it wouldn't be very easy getting her out of his thoughts.
Rex was so lost in his thoughts that he clearly had forgotten he was in the middle of a meeting.
He was nudged by his secretary who was beside him.
Rex lazily opened his eyes and it dropped on max asking why he interrupted him.
Max crouch to whisper in his ear
" Sir, the meeting "
'Oh! ' Rex raised an eye brow, he turned to the people present in the room and he frowned.
'Why were they looking at him like that? " He thought
There was a total of ten people in the meeting excluding himself and eight had a very red expression on their faces.
Rex sat up straight and looked at all of them, his gaze caught a younger looking lady.
" Miss sylvester " He called in a low voice and everyone seized their breath, faces getting redder.
Now someone should really tell him what was going on, he thought.
" What? " He asked no one in particular
Miss sylvester turned her gaze to the file in her hand and bit her lips cheekily.
How could anyone be so breathtaking as he was, she thought.
He was sleeping in the middle of a conversation.
His long eye lashes dusted the upper part of his cheek and a sweat trailed down the smooth contours of his face.
He was seducing every living soul in the room even some of the males without knowing
He hadn't even lifted a finger or say any word and he had stirred something dark in them.
Miss sylvester blushed fiercely at the thought.
Rex looked up to max and his face told everything, his face ran out of its colour immediately. Geez, what business partners.
What was he still doing here, he thought the meeting had ended.
Ah, he remembered now.
They had shifted from business to casual talk and had asked if he had a fiancee that was what had made him thinking about Alya.
He got up and started to walk towards the door.
" Mr. Rex " A soft voice addressed him and he turned. It was miss sylvester.
" Erm I was thinking, w-would you love to go out for lunch "
" It would be my treat " She quickly added.
Max who was behind Rex went wide-eyed, he couldn't believe his ears.
' what a seemingly wrong time to annoy the boss ' he thought
" No, thank you " Rex declined the offer and quickly walked out of the office.
He was in the throes of mourning and these humans were flirting. Shameless!
He thought
