Alexander stepped outside his car, standing in front of a door he rang the bell and got no answer, but before he could again press the button, the door opens revealing a tall man with a smile on his face, all of the anger inside of Alexander just disappeared in a second and Alexander also flashed a grin before speaking.
"Dom"
"Hi man! How are you!?"
Giving a manly hug they both greeted each other, Alexander was meeting Dom after a very long time, he was very happy to see his old friend, he kinda felt relief after all of this long drama. Dom made Alexander come inside his house and lead him to the living room
"Come have a seat"
"Yeah sure"
Walking towards the couch Dom offered Alexander to have a seat and make himself comfortable. while went to kitchen to get something to drink.
"So? what's the matter?"
Siting down beside Alexander, Dom spoke after he put a glass of water on the table, in form of Alexander, Alexander took the glass and after taking a sip. he spoke looking at Dom.
"I need your help!"
"And with what?"
Looking at Alexander's serious face Dom tilted his head in confusion and spoke raising his eyebrows. it was kind of new to Dom.
The man who never asks for help was today sitting in front of him in need of his support. Alexander told him everything even the wedding scene, how his would-be wife ran away, but he didn't told him why. Alexander still wasn't sure if he should tell him the whole plan or not
"That's it!"
Alexander ended his explanation, but Dom was just sitting there with his frowned eyebrows, he didn't understand the thing, why was he still with Amelia and why did she run away? Dom wanted to ask all of these questions but he didn't. he understands that the right thing to do right now is to keep his mouth shut.
"Hmm, so I have to find out that who put those cameras in that abandoned building!"
"Yes! And now that you know everything! Don't tell my sister, I know she'll reach you!"
Alexander told him not to tell anyone and especially his sister, he already knew very well that Loren would reach him, and being Dom who likes Loren, would tell her everything
"Ok, I won't! but tell me one thing! what was the reason for Amelia running away and why are you supporting her?"
Dom couldn't hold his curiosity anymore and asked Alexander about the main topic, Whereas Alexander just stared at him for a while before he shook his head as no
"I can't tell you right now! but when the time comes... I will!"
Dom just nodded hearing Alexander, maybe it was personal, or maybe he didn't trust him fully, maybe he was afraid that Dom would expose everything in front of his sister, Dom had feelings for Loren from back when they used to study together.
Dom was Loren's class fellow, while Alexander and Amelia were in the same class until Alexander left the county and went to xxxxx country to complete his studies.
Alexander always took Dom as his elder brother. he used to share everything with him, he used to trust him with everything. Alexander was more close to Dom than his own sister Loren. but now it's been years they were out of contact. so for now gaining that trust back is kind of hard for Alexander
"Okay! maybe I should leave now!"
A smile plastered on his face Alexander got up, as Dom did the same, they again gave each other a brotherly hug before Dom accompanied Alexander out, that was a nice meeting, Alexander got in this car before he drove to his house where his sister was waiting for him

Amelia was walking near the sea, her hair tied up in a loose bun, her hands inside the pockets of her baggy pants, headphones in her ears, looking at the sky filled with stars, half-moon flashing the glowing light, making the water shine, she was deep into the moment when she felt a hand on her shoulder making her look back, just to she Lucas standing there with his irritated face,
"What now?"
"Why are roaming outside? don't you know there are a lot of people searching for you!"
Lucas spoke calmly, but his eyes indicating towards somewhere, Amelia got confused and followed his gaze just to see a man standing behind a car with a camera in his hands, her eyes went wide as she slides a bit making Lucas stand in front of her, so that man couldn't get her picture
"Wooh, How?"
Amelia look at Lucas and spoke in panic, Whereas Lucas just nodded before he holds her hand leading her back in the boat
"Who was that? OH MY GOD! I'm doomed! if Alex got to know that he would get so mad"
Amelia was walking here and there in the boat, while Lucas just sat there looking at her
"Can you please stop walking, my head is spinning by just watching you!"
"Man Lucas, what do we do now? what if Dad knows where I am, and if not, what if that camera guy tells him?!"
Amelia sat beside him, making Lucas startled with the sudden closeness he slides a bit far from her keeping the distance, at this point, Amelia just forgot all of their fights and arguments, she was just worried about what would happen next
"Umm... I think we should tell Alex, that someone is keeping their eye on us, or maybe you have to shift somewhere else--"
"Yea, so you can live freely right!"
Not for too long, the argument began again, Lucas was talking seriously but as soon as he spoke about to shifting thing Amelia loses it and spoke cutting his words, making Lucas gaze at her weirdly, as if she came from another planet, or maybe she was an alien.
"Are you for real!".....
