HONEST REVENGE

Alex kept bothering his sister and we had nothing else to do, why was he doing this?

He actually shaved off all her long hair one night when she was asleep and his reason was that she was such an ugly dork, he was just making her look better.

Alexa cried for days on end and I realized, I had to protect her from her own brother, so I spent every moment, of every day with her when she was at home with Alex.

I hardly had time for Anneliese anymore but she tried to be understanding, though it was hard.

One Saturday night though, when I was out for my run, Alexa was woken up from sleep and she first saw Alex.

She sat up and asked what he was doing then he said in a sincere tone,"I wanted to tell you something."

"Anything."She said.

He started,"I'm... I'm sorry for how I've been treating you."

She widened her eyes then asked,"Really?"

He nodded then said,"I've only been doing that because I was jealous...I like you Alexa."

"I like you too Alex."She said.

"No, I mean like, I really like you, Alexa."

She widened her eyes...

"Wait...what?"She asked, not believing her own ears,"But we're siblings."

"I know but... it's just, I've always liked you but I was too scared to say it because we were siblings, that's why I sent you those love letters and got mad when you kissed Trevor, I want you for myself, please give me a chance."

She was hyperventilating then started shedding tears, she didn't want this, but he was being so vulnerable and honest at that moment then she said,"I'm sorry Alex, but we can't, what will everyone think?"

"Alexa, do you like me?"

"That's the thing...no."

He looked at her, first hurt, then, full of rage.

His eyes started to glow and he yelled,"What?! I've done everything for you and you said I was a nice guy when you didn't know me!"

A storm started kicking up in the room and she was scared as the rain drops froze and spun around the two of them, drilling holes in the walls.

He then stretched his arm towards her and water was blasted at her then she screamed and a pair of eyes abruptly opened...

***

Alexa screamed right before a wall of ice formed in front of her then she was pulled off the bed.

Alex broke the wall of ice and chased after her then she looked back to see dad.

He took her to the safe room which was meant for when she and my mom were in danger then left her there.

He ran to Alex who was furiously looking for his sister then he yelled and all the windows exploded from the air pressure but my dad wasn't moved.

My dad started running then front flipped over the table that was thrown his way and started running on the furniture which was flying around then grabbed Alex and pulled him down.

Water and ice were being blasted everywhere as Alex struggled and after a long time of trying to talk Alex out of it, my dad controlled his mind to make him fall asleep.

He looked at his son, filled with regret and pain and I just appeared and asked what had happened.

My dad was just as oblivious to the cause of his sudden outburst as I was.

We took Alexa and my mom out of the safe room and Alexa was crying terribly, but she wouldn't tell us the reason Alex attacked and begged us not to read her mind.

Alexa didn't feel safe around Alex after that and we moved her out of his room into my original one, where I could keep a better eye on her and he couldn't hurt her anymore.

Alex kept apologizing to Alexa and though she had already forgiven him, she couldn't get over what he had said.

She didn't feel the same with him as she used to and wanted to stay as far away from him as possible. Why her? Why not anyone else?

My dad started being more strict and aware to Alex but that only made him worse.

He became even more hot headed and destroyed the mansion every week on average.

We didn't know what else to do with him.

At that moment, a relatively small blue giant started getting to the end of its life...

***

Anneliese opened her room door as there was a knock and she met me, smiling and holding some flowers, with Alexa by my side.

She was a little angry at me since she hadn't heard from me in more than a week but she let me in.

Her roommate whom I already knew had a secret crush on me was ogling but left when Anneliese asked for privacy.

"Can I help you in any way? Cause that's why you always come to visit, when you need something."She said.

"I get it, I haven't treated you right these past few weeks and I'm sorry."

"It wasn't his fault Anneliese, it was mine."Alexa said.

I looked at her, just as surprised as Anneliese then Anneliese asked,"What do you mean? You didn't do anything wrong."

"Yes I did, I've been a coward and have been scared of Alex, that's why Felix has had to watch over me."She said.

"Alexa..."I said.

"No it's true, I think it's time I told you why Alex got mad at me..."

We looked at her then she told us everything...

"He said what?!"I yelled.

Alexa then said,"Please don't get mad..."

"But he's your own brother! And that's the reason he's treated you like this?!"I yelled.

"Felix, I think this is why she didn't want you to know."Anneliese said.

"What?!"

"You're overreacting."

"Overreacting?! He wants to commit incest or kill her and you think I'm overreacting?!"I yelled.

"Yes, he's just a kid he doesn't know how he feels, neither do you, but she does."

I looked at Alexa then sighed before saying,"I'll talk to him about it, but calmly."

"Really?!"Alexa said, excitement evident in her voice.

I nodded.

She thanked me and hugged me.

I was able to patch things up with Anneliese and we were able to come up with a routine where I'd visit her with Alexa, who loved her company, we were also going to try and help Alex.
