NINETY SIX

Alexa's POV

I fell asleep not long after Calan left my room. I know i wasnt exactly feeling better about what had happened earlier but i felt a little uplifted; i felt lighter knowing he didnt see me as a burden, i felt better knowing he actually wanted me in his future.

I dont know for how long I slept for, but when i woke up i felt like i had been trampled upon by a mob of angry protesters. I had pulled myself together and gone to the bathroom to shower, and when i was finally done i headed downstairs to find Calan.

I found him in his study on the phone, and because i didng want to interrupt him i stood by the door and waited.

"I dont care". He was saying, his voice was low....upset. "It's not about paying a fine, Layla can take care of that, i want her sanity tested".

She knew he was talking about Leela, and truly, she was tired of the whole Leela thing.

"Just find a way of getting it done....".

She let out a breath before stepping into the study fully to get his attention,
