Chapter 14 - Too Good to be True (2) (1/2)

April was standing on her balcony, facing the drive way. She was currently gazing at the sky, tonight was cloudless and full of stars. The Half Moon was shining bright with life, she sighed.

It was the middle of the night and she just woke up from another nightmare. April didn't feel like sleeping again, so she decided to get some fresh air.

If only her life was the same as the others, how wonderful could that be? April silently cried. She knew that no matter what she does, it'll always hunt her. She can never forget how they tutored her, r.a.p.ed her, to make her beg for her life and see the other kids situations as well.

She had never told this to anyone before, not even the doctors. They wouldn't be able to erase it from her mind and she didn't want their sympathy. They will never understand what she went through. It was the worst kind of hell on earth.

April took a deep breath and sighed. She needs to calm herself down, or else she will get anxiety again. She didn't want to have anymore episodes. If she does, she might hurt herself again in the process. Plus, she didn't wanna lose Sky now. Alex could easily make it as an excuse to take him away. April really don't know Alex that much, She just mostly like the warmth and calmness he brings when he is around. That sounded like an excuse but its true. In April's world, calmness is what she needed the most.

Her thoughts was interrupted by the sounds of an incoming sports car. April looked at their driveway and a black Lamborghini was heading her way.

She didn't know who's car it was and it was already past midnight. Although she was suspicious, only a few people knows where she lives and the security was tight on their community. It could only be that person.

The car stopped in front of the mansion, but the driver didn't go down. Puzzled, April went back inside and grabbed her phone. She dialed Alex's number and walk back to the balcony while waiting for him to pick it up.

Either way, only Alex would be the only one to tell her who it was. That's if, it wasn't him.

”April?” Alex had a slightly shocked voice, when he picked up the phone. He didn't know that April was still awake at this hour.

”What are you doing outside?” April looked at the sports car and smiled.

”Huh? Can you see me?” Alex looked around but didn't saw anyone.

”Get out of the car, I'm in the balcony”. April played with her hair, wondering why did the God descended from heaven.

Alex turned off the car and got out. He looked towards the balconies and found April. She waved at him and hanged up.

Alex waved back and walked towards her. He was troubled tonight and can't get any sleep. He decided to take a drive, the next thing he knew he was already in April's driveway.

”Why are you still awake?”. He noticed how she was only wearing thin pajamas. Wasn't she cold? he thought.

”Why are you here in the middle of the night?”. She answered with a question.

Alex rubbed his neck, he didn't know himself. He can't say that he was driving unaware. For some reason, his consciousness brought him to her. Yet, he can't admit this.
