A sensitive topic

Slowly the cat started to look like a tiger but it was black so it was taken to a veterinarian and their parents sent people to check the background of the cat. Turns out it was a rare black tiger that escaped the zoo where it was maltreated. Papa Lin wanted to return it to the zoo because it was a wild animal and could potentially hurt Alex, Alex refused and Mam Lin sided her. Xander on the other hand was scared of the big cat or cat generally so he stayed out of it. A compromise was reached, the cat had to move out of Alex's room.

****************************************************************************************************

The tiger paced around, looking at Xander with his brows raised. "Hiii little black" he chuckled nervously feeling uncomfortable under it's fierce gaze.

"I changed her name" Alex tapped the coach softly and the black tiger snorted before going to lay on the couch. "Are you ready to talk to me or would you prefer Black Rose's company.

"Who named a tiger Rose?" Xander jeered but he was ignored. Alex continued shower the cub with her attention but the smirk on her lips told she was thinking of something evil.

The silent continued until Alex tapped rose gently. Rose shock her white stripped fur and stretched her paws slightly.

"What happened was..."Xander started spilling the beans. Alex smiled lightly and continued petting the two cats but her attention was focused solely on his words.

It was a love square between the close friends. Xander was fell in love with Andy, Andy was in love with Chen Jing and the later had eyes only for Alex. Xander and Jing were best friends and somehow Andy Su was able to warm her way into their hearts. When Alex joined the gang she noticed a certain trait in Andy so she avoided her as much as possible, who was she to cause a fight between friends. Andy knew about Xander's feeling but she ignored them and some times took advantage of it much to Alex chagrin but she knew Xander was no fool.

That fateful week, Xander had confessed his feelings again and he was rejected. The three went to their usual meeting spot together. It was Andy's birthday, she made a toast to Chen Jing but Xander's ever observant eyes noticed something wrong so he spilled the drink before Jing could drink it on disguise of an accident. When Jing left for the bathroom, he confronted Andy. Unfortunately, Jing overheard them and dragged Xander out of a conversation. He told Jing about Andy's crush and how her father was in need of money now and wanted her to sleep with Chen Jing to secure an engagement.

Furious Jing had dealt Xander some punches before leaving. When Xander returned, there were strange guys in the room. Their lewd hand touching Andy inappropriately. He intervened but ended up getting tied up instead and he had to watch.

At this point he started sobbing, Alex gave him time to calm himself and continue.

He had fainted and when the woke up, Andy was no where to be found. He had gone to her home and the servants said they went to the Chen ancestral house. Turns out they where trying to force an engagement on Jing. It seemed Andy had not told them about the r***. The Chen's had chased them out saying Jing was home all night and their son was innocent. But the matter infuriated the Chen Elders and he was sent to Country D for training.

Xander was disgusted by the Su family, Andy knew what she was doing was wrong and also knew Jing had nothing to do with her but to elevate her status she framed him, when he got home he had no time to grieve because he was immediately shipped to the states.

Xander stopped there but Alex knew the rest. The Su elders had forced Andy to keep the baby, Andy tried several times to get rid of the baby so the Su's got suspicious and found out. Then they shifted their target from Chen to the Lin's but the Lin were in the dumbs so they wanted to get rid of the child, unfortunately, Andy destroyed her womb in the process. Her twin must have felt guilty.
