Third person’s pov“That’s all for now, enjoy the rest of your day”. Micheal concluded his lesson for the evening and everyone begun packing up their stuff and leaving.Alexa however, had other plans, she knew she had to thank Micheal for helping her out yesterday and so she decided to wait behind till almost everyone had left before she picked up her bag and made her way to the podium where Micheal was seated at the desk going through something on his phone. His gaze flickered up on hearing approaching footsteps, and on realizing that it was her a small smile curved his lips. “Good evening, Sir”. She greeted quietly.“Good evening, Alexa”. Replied as he set his phone down giving her his full attention. “Please don’t address me as sir when we’re alone”.She awkwardly averted her gaze from his as she thought about what to say to that, and when she found nothing she simply nodded.“Is there something I can do for you?”. He asked her and she shook her head almost immediately.“No, i….

Third person’s POVOn getting into Fooders and interacting a bit, they realized that a lot had changed, not just the staff but the owner as well, but that aside; it was still the same. It still had the warmth and the softness that just felt so very homey, and Alexa found herself almost choking on the nostalgia that overtook her once more.“The food still tastes the same”. Calan said and she nodded agreeingly. How long had it been? Two years? Three? It was good to know that the new owner of the place was still upholding the honor of its name.“I hope the pastries haven’t changed either”. She said while grinning.He nodded. He had always been more inclined towards the donuts and coffee they served here and he truly did hope they hadn’t changed.“Let’s get some on our way out so we can find out”. He said to her. She nodded once more.“I’ll get the croissants”. She said. “You’re getting the donuts still?”. He smiled and leaned back into his seat.“You still remember”. He said. How cou

Alexa’s POVIt had started out as a beautiful day; I had pulled myself together, showered and had breakfast with Calan. We had talked about random stuff and he had decided that the weather was lovely, perfect for a drive around town and I had been more than happy to go for a drive.We had stopped by quite a number of places; the mall, a café, even a bookshop. And for the first time in a very long time I had felt free, I had felt light and alive. I had suddenly felt young and vibrant and I couldn’t seem to wipe off my smile; he had taken my hand as we walked around the mall and he had insisted that I take quite a number of things I didn’t need. And at the bookstore, I had been trying to reach for a book at the top column of the shelf and he had simply reached out from behind me and lowered the book for me. It had been like a scene from the movies, a rather cliché scene from the movies but I didn’t mind. I had felt like melting against him and of course I had begun blushing intensely.

THIRD PERSON’S POV There had been a lot of tenderness between Calan and Alexa back at the cemetery, and now that they were back home, neither knew what to make of the somewhat awkward situation they found themselves in. Alexa had been sure he had been so kind and endearing to her because he had wanted to stop her from crying and all, but then, she couldn’t help but wonder if there was more to it. But what if it had simply been as a result of the moment of weakness? There was that, and there was also the fact that she was overthinking things like always. And then there was Calan who found he was also conflicted on making sense of what had happened earlier. He had wanted to comfort her; obviously, she been in so much discomfort, she had been hurting so much, and it had bothered him to the point that he had wanted to do all he could to just make the pain go away, he had wanted to tell her everything she needed to hear to make her feel better; he had wanted to be everything she needed

Third Person’s POV Alexa sat quietly in the security office while waiting for Calan to arrive, Layla had also been called as well, and it was said that Micheal would be here soon. It was turning out to be more of a personal affair really; Rayne and Sasha sensed it so they left after assuring her that everything would be alright.She stared blankly at her feet as she thought back at all Leela had said. Her throat constricted all over again and tears blurred her vision. She knew that Leela had just been trying to spite her, but the fact that she had so blatantly implied that she was sleeping with Micheal affected her in an entirely different way.Who else thought she was sleeping with Micheal? Who else had Leela told? Did everyone think the same? How would Calan react if he heard that? How would Micheal react? She blinked and the tears that had blurred her vision went sliding down her cheeks. She had been crying for close to fifteen minutes now; her eyes were all red and puffy, sore
