Not his fault

Alex was surprise to see Zack sitting down and looking at Sandra with so much interest.

“What’s he doing?” he tries to get his attention but Zack behaves like he didn’t see Alex walk in.

“Hey… How is she doing?” He ask Zack instead of “What are you doing here?”

"She will be fine in the morning” Zack got up to leave without looking at Alex.

“W..Wow… that is close”… Alex muttered as Zack walks out, he rush to Sandra side and his emotions gave way, and he began to regret cheating on her for the second time.

“I need to do something fast and get the hell out of this place”. He sat up for the remaining night hours till morning.

Just when he was about to get some sleep Sandra woke up and Alex jumped out of bed.

“Love are you okay now?”

“I’m ok…and why call me love,?” she smile at him and it melts Alex's heart. She suddenly becomes more beautiful to Alex. He hug her.

“Thank you for waking up”

“Seriously have I been sleeping for long?” Sandra ask  with a surprise look in her face.

Alex didn’t know how to tell her what happened so he lied.

“I..I… have something I want to tell you”

“Ok” she sat upright smiling at him, she was so happy hearing Alex call her love.

“I think we will be leaving this place next week” he said smiling; not even sure if that is possible, he just wanted to tell her something so she won’t be asking too many questions.

“Wow…that will be wonderful” she hug him, so excited to leave this place, she didn’t want to see that Adora again, after all Alex’s house is far more beautiful than this place, she just wonder why people are after them.

"Look at me" Alex held Sandra’s face like that of a baby.

“ I will be going out today to look for Clara, and when I find her we will leave this place for good” Sandra nod.

“I want you to do me one favor” she nod again.

“Don’t listen to anyone when am gone, don’t  listen to Adora or even….”, he hesitate before saying Zack too, "what ever they say about me.. I mean my family don’t listen to them."

Sandra nods, she wonders if Alex was having a hard time here too, but she has no intention of listening to that Witch of Adora.

“Please be fast about it, I really wants to go home.” She made her face like a baby and Alex kiss her.

“Just be good when am gone okay,,

“Okay”

Alex went in search of Clara for the fifth time but to his greatest disappointment, Clara is no where to be seen.

He came home devastated, angry,  rage. He wanted to destroy everything in the room but remember this is not his house, he hold his anger in, lock himself in the room with just him and Sandra inside.

He wanted to cry, but he didn’t want Sandra to worry about him.

She hug him for a very long time consoling him and telling him Clara would still be alive.
