Hearing the question, the whole room fell silent for a good while. Even Cindy's hand on her glass stopped. Her stomach was suddenly filled with tension she could not describe and in the end, she simply lowered her head.
She was eagerly waiting for his answer; Did he have someone that he loved?
Alexander was silent for a good while before replying, 'Yes, I do have someone that I love."
Everyone was silent as if they were waiting for him to give them a full story of his love life and in this rare chance, Alexander indulged them.
"I met her when I was five, she had just been born then. I was the first stranger who ever held her and when I did, it felt like the world stopped. She was crying on my arms. I did not know what to do so I smiled and when I did, she stopped crying. I have never felt an emotion like that, indescribable, raw, and right there and then I knew it was only her, not anyone else that I was going to love for the rest of my life!"
