Chapter41

#Chapter41

I look at my father who looks taken aback. Mum puts her hand on his arm, slowly carresing it, trying to calm him down. /"No! What the hell are you even doing in my house?/" Dad suddenly bursts and I jump a bit in fright.

Axel frowns for a second and I think he's gonna go all out, but then he composes himself and taking a deep breath, he begins:/"I came for your daughter, sir, and I won't give up. I'm sorry that we got off on the wrong foot, but I care for Sophia, no matter how it may look./"

I gasp, quietly but everone hears it so they all look at me.

I look at Axel, his green eyes staring and I can see him gulp and then smile at me.

I feel immense relief with that smile, all stress and sadness rolling off of me in big waves. Before I know what I'm doing, I'm with him, hughing him tightly to myself. /"Sophia what the hell are you doing? Get away from him!/" dad shouts. I break from the hug and look at dad.
