Revelations

Alex went back kneeling in front of the Lewis after Colm was taken away from him. Of course he knew about April, He was Colm fiancee.

Ever since he have met Colm in highschool, all he ever talked most about was April. He remembered seeing the news on tv when April was missing. It was well known even in Europe, since Colm was found in Germany.

Colm always shared how April's condition was getting better all through out the years. Though he knew April through Colm and Colm introduced them to each other, April never seem to have interest in him.

April was always timid and non-responsive. At times, they would meet on parties organized by the Smiths. April would be gazing far away and isolated. Though he had never seen her lose herself, he had heard stories about it as well.

After all, Colm was determined to marry her. Although Colm is still currently 21, He was a genius. He skipped most of his middle school because he was smarter than his perks. That's how he met Colm in Highschool. Though they weren't classmates, it certainly gained his attention. Most of the teachers were always talking about how smart Colm is despite how young he was. Alex thought then that it wouldn't be a bad idea to have him as a friend. It will help him have his own connections in the US.

"Please let me take the responsibilities of being Sky's father. As you may know, I don't have a child with my wife yet. This way, Sky wouldn't have to worry about any sibling rivalry. I've already talked to my parents about this and they can't wait to meet my son." Alex was anxious. He had always wanted to have a child. Unfortunately, he and his wife had a disagreement about this.

"Hold a sec". Ted finally speak up. Everyone was still stunned by Alex's revelations.

Alex looked up at Ted and thought that if he wanted his son to recognize him as its father, he needed April's parents recognition. After all he thinks that April is not capable of having her own decisions. Since she still goes to see a psychiatrist.

Ted sighed and patted his wife's shaking hand.

"You keep calling my grandson as your son. How do we know if you are telling the truth? Also, I have never heard of you and April together? When did this happened? Plus, you already have a wife? What are your plans regarding this? I am sure you have known about my daughter's condition, I don't want her to suffer than she already has. So you better clear this up for all of us here!" Ted couldn't help but be doubtful. After all, why would Alex Hawthorne be interested in his daughter when he already had Francesca?

"I have a DNA test with me, I could take another one for your convenience." Alex got up and handed them an envelope that was on the table.

"Also, My wife and I had already come to an agreement about Sky. I already told her about it." It was a long argument that ended up to a good agreement. After all, he didn't wanna lose his wife in the process. He was in love with his wife since highschool.

Ted opened the envelope for Annie to also see. It had Alex's name and Sky's. They were deemed to be Father and Son with 99.99% accuracy. Ted sighed and hugged his shaking wife.

"May I see it Ted?" Malcolm asked Ted, he and his wife was also protective towards April. He let go of his son, seeing that he wasn't unreasonable anymore and took the envelope from Ted's hand.

He saw the logo of a Famous European Hospital. No doubt it was legit. They were famous for being truthful and humble hospital. Ted sighed again, seeing Malcolm's silent reaction. He already understood the validity.

Colm grabbed the Envelope from his father's hand and read it. His hands can't help but crumpled the edges of it. He couldn't believe it still. No matter what, he refused to believe it. How? How did it happened?

Colm threw the paper on the floor and grabbed Alex's collar.

"Tell me! If you still value our friendship! Why did you do this to her?! You knew well who she was to me! And yet you impregnated my fiancee! Alex!! Tell me!! Make me understand!!" Colm's eyes was so red, his fist tightened on Alex's collar.

"It was mistake. I never planned it to happen! Almost 4 years ago, Remember that I was drunk and drugged by Cefei on my bachelor's party? He said it was my gift before getting married to Francesca. I don't know the full details since Cefei has been hiding from me ever since I found out about Sky. All I remember was, I had a one night stand with someone and when I woke up; I was alone. Believe me Colm! I didn't meant for it to happen! I didn't even though that it was April! I would never do it with anyone! You know how I was so in love with Francesca! Even back then until now!" Alex explained himself fast. He meant all what he had said. He really didn't know.

When he woke up that day, he had an awful headache. He remembered bits of pieces of what happened, but he wasn't able to remember her face. He could still feel how his hands wrapped perfectly around her body, The taste of her sweet little lips and how amazing it felt to be one with her. That morning, he almost thought that it was Francesca. Unfortunately, she told him that she had her own bachelorette in Italy and Alex was in the US that day.

Colm did remember it. They even joked Alex about it. Who would've thought that it was April on Alex's bed that night. Colm pushed Alex away and left the room. He needed to calm down and think this through. He was afraid that he would beat his friend to death if he stayed any longer.

Seeing Colm left, Alex sighed. Colm was the most trusted friend he had. Even with a 6 year gap, they always felt like they were brothers. It was hard for him to admit it, especially in front of everyone. Yet he needed to, for the sake of his son.

Hearing Alex's explanation, The Lewis didn't said anything and left. The Smiths didnt tried to persuade them to stay. They knew it was a big blow to them. Anything that involves April was their weakness.

Malcolm could only sighed and looked at Alex. He needed to question him further. It was all left to him to see what Alex planned for Sky.
