Chapter 6

Before going home, Alexa stop by in a coffee shop. She is a coffee addict and one way of releasing her stress is coffee. She ordered caramel macchiato. She sit on the table near the glass window and started to think of what had just happened. She is confused because John is acting weird. Since they met this morning, different emotions fill his eyes. There was anger, jealousy, and longing? "Maybe it was just my imaginations." Alexa whispered to herself. After she finished the coffee she head home.

Her apartment was a 30 minutes drive away from the hospital. She chose the place because of the ambiance and outside are complete amneties of what she needs in her daily routine and its has a parking for her car. Inside her apartment is a bedroom, a kitchen, dining room and a bathroom just like a typical house. She park her car and go inside of the house. For her, it was a long day that she wanted to sleep already for her to revive her energy that was drained due to her encounter with John. She goes to the bathroom to take a shower. After changing her clothes, she's ready to lie in her bed but paused because of the knock in her door. She frowned and ask herself who could it be? Alexa opened the door and she was surprised because standing in front of her was the person giving her stress. "What are you doing here? Alexa said. "Lets talk." John answers. "Whats there to talk about? I have nothing to say to you and if you may excuse me I want to rest." Alexa saying but before she could close the door John entered without her permission. "Hey!" There was a moment of silence. John was the one who broke it. "Im sorry." He said while intently looking at her. She saw the sincerity on John's face. She kept quiet. "I was really jealous when I saw you and Mike are really close eventhough I know that your only friends but I cant stop myself. From the moment I saw you in the director's office Im very happy because at last I see you again after all those years. I wanted to kiss you, I wanted to hug but stop myself because of the people around us." John continously talk while Alexa is more confuse of what John is saying. "Back in our college years the moment I saw you I already liked you but I dont know how to tell you so all I can do is to tease and annoy you. Mark and Luke (their college friends beside Jana and Carla) told me that I should pursue you but when im ready to do it is when my dad and mom told me that we're migrating to US." John continually explaining. Alexa did not know what to think and feel because of the sudden declaration of John. She wanted to laugh and to cry but chose the later. The tears fell in her small face that made John stop explaining. "Why are you crying?" He asked with a worried voice. "I thought it was a one sided love." Alexa aswers in between her sobs. "Silly girl. Remember when you stand in front of me and ready to kiss me because of the game, I wanted to jump because of happiness. I also thought of the same." John said smiling. But Alexa did not stop from crying so John hug her and brush her hair. After quite a while, when John felt that Alexa calm down, he tilted her face and ask " Can we start all over again? And when Alexa nodded, John did not waste a minute. He kiss her passionately and Alexa did the same. Both hungry with each other's love. And the night was filled with their moans and declaration of love with each other.
