chapter 81flight to mexico

Alexa had already changed the sim from her phone,she sat there looking lost as she heard a sweet voice.

Are you okay?,you seem lost,the pretty lady who was making a call before asked.

Huh..am fine,thank you,she said and soon they boarded the plane,she sat by the window despite her air sickness, coincidentally the pretty lady was beside her.

Oh it's you again, she said with a smile and that was how they ended up chatting.

So what's your name,she asked enthusiastic.

Am Alexa and you..?

Am Valerie..

Valerie liked how composed she was,she didn't reveal too much information about herself,she would only say the necessary,she was a very cool girl,and if she was to choose between the girls William hung around with or her,she wouldn't think twice before choosing her for her brother.

Alexa looked at Valerie,she could tell their age difference weren't much,she was sixteen then if she was to guess Valerie's age she would be around 19-20,she was really beautiful with her red hair,she had not seen anyóne able to pull out a red hair but she did,her red hair reminded her of someone.

It was that guy from the engagement party who had helped her with her lipstick, he also had red hair and was also able to pull off the hair,she couldn't remember how he looked but from her memory,the two kind of resembled each other...,maybe it was the hair,she thought.

When the plane was in the air and Valerie was still talking to her, she felt her air sickness coming back,she felt like puking but held it back,she closed her eyes and knitted her brows,Valerie quickly noticed this and looked worriedly at her.

Are you okay?,she asked.

Alexa was quiet for a while before she spoke"I get airsick whenever I board the plane that why I prefer road travel".

Oh, she shuffle into her pocket and brought out a candy bar she had never seen before.

It's Mexican flavoured,she said as she noticed Alexa's curious gaze.

My brother also gets airsick whenever he boards the plane,and this helps him a lot,she said as Alexa bit her lips as she took it,she was actually hungry as she had not eaten the whole of yesterday and that morning.

Thank you,she said and took the chocolate,she took a bite and the flavour was just relishing,she actually forgot she was on air,it had a cooling sensation even though it wasn't cold,she had almost finished the chocolate and felt a lot better.

Oh,do you want some?,she asked out of manners and Valerie shook her head with a smile.

You can have it,am good,she said and they talked for a while before falling asleep,the trip to Mexico was a long one and when she woke up there were still on air.

3 more hours till touchdown,said a voice through a microphone.

She looked beside her Valerie was still fast asleep,she turned her head outside and looked at the endless clouds,a familiar face resurfacing in her head.

She thought about Ayden,how was he doing?,was he already awake?,did he forget her?,so many questions but no one to answer her.

She had let go of him because she was like a burden to him,she was like the thorn in his flesh.

He wouldn't proceed because of her,she was holding him back and she knew it,she wanted to be selfish and stay by his side even if he wouldn't remember her but she couldn't do that.

Since they met,he had being into one problem or the other because of her and now he was stabbed with a poison coated knife and almost died..,Yes his feelings for her will die when he wakes up but it was alright,be would be free from her and live his life freely and to the fullest.

The plane finally arrived and when it stopped and they alighted from the plane,she felt nauseous again due to being on air for too long,she sat on a bench as she waited for a taxi to pass by while she checked the hotel she had reserved.

What?,she muttered as she looked at her phone,her reservation was cancelled as she couldn't make quick reservation and no hotels would be accepting any reservation or booking,what would she do now,she didn't know anybody here,she was completely on her own.

No she wasn't...

Alexa,a cool, vibrant lady voice rang out,she raised her head and looked forward, it was Valerie walking towards her.

Hey what's wrong, you've being here for a while,she said and Alexa cocked her brow.

Yes..I was watching you,I wanted to be sure you had gone already since you didn't know anybody here..

Ahh..well the hotel I booked a reservation for cancelled last minute,and no other hotel are open.

Well that's good..,I mean you can stay with me..

Oh no,I don't want to burden you.

C'mon it fine,by the way I've never had anyone in the house before,so please say you'll stay..

She looked hesitant but after a while nodded and a smile appeared on Valerie's face as she helped her her with her luggage.

My car is over there,she said as they walked towards the car.

She really was accomplished, wasn't she?,she had a car and a house of her own,what does she do exactly, Alexa thought.

They arrived at the house,it was really pretty though it wasn't too big it was decent and felt warmly and cozy,she entered the house and the interiors were top-notch.

Good evening aunty lee,could you please get a maid to take this to the guest room,she said and gave the bag to her.

Aunty lee was Korean,who was brought up in Mexico,she had served Valerie ever since her shot to fame,and Valerie and William really respected her even though they weren't related.

They had dinner before Alexa went up to the guest room to rest,she woke up a few hours later as it was already 9:00pm,she felt thirsty and went down to the kitchen to get a glass of water.
