Chapter 81: care and worries
"I am sorry!!!!"
"Tell me does that dr Ann know your brother is alive?….tell me!!"
"Yes"
"Oh my word and she had the nerves to say such things to my sister, I am so mad at myself, you lied to me"
"At that time my brother was all I was thinking about and he was going through a lot"
"Such a good brother you're, now I feel like the worse sister ever. Despite everything your brother and stepmom did to my sister I still chose to be with you....I chose my happiness over my sister...….was faking his death necessary?"
"He needed time for himself, he had lost himself he didn't want to live when your sister didn't want to forgive him when he had a second chance at life he wanted to start a new, fix himself"
"You were mad at my sister"
"Because I felt he pushed him too far that he wanted to die"
Sel slapped him
"My sister pushed him too far? What about what my sister went through? After his survival, he and my sister would have went on their separate ways! Even I would have convinced them because they bring trouble to each other. All those years my sister had to suffer, my sister blamed herself because his death involved her, that man wanted to kill my sister and he came in between exactly the same thing that happened with my dad and your mom tell me how did both of you feel ? that's the Same pain you put my sister through. You're cruel"
"I am so sorry sel"
"I brought you food" she said and left
Sel went to the hospital
"I am sorry sis" sel said and hugged her
"What's wrong sis?"
She tried to tell her but Julius came there
"It's nothing" Julius said
"Come on Aileen let's go out and eat I am hungry"
"But sel
"Please Aileen i am hungry and hope sel won't mind"
"You go ahead I will meet you at home anyway"
Julius took her out from work
"Sel was about telling me something important"
"It's about me"
"Huh?!!"
"I am sorry Aileen but I did something bad I said something that she shouldn't have heard when I was talking to Brian" he said looking down, he couldn't lie to her
"Is that serious?"
"I hope not, I really don't want to be the reason for any misunderstanding between them"
Aileen hugged him
"Aileen I am sorry I really want to tell you but I also can't, I am so confused" he was sad when he said that
"You look really sad Julius, I hope whatever is bothering you goes away I hate seeing you like this" she said to him affectionately and wiped his tears
"I hope you forgive me one day" he thought
After a while,
"Sorry, I am usually not a cry baby"
"It's ok Julius"
"Whatever is happening with you I hope it goes away soon, Julius I care a lot about you and seeing you like this breaks my heart and I don't want that, I wish I could take all your pain away like you do with mine but I promise you I am going to do everything to make you happy" she thought looking intensely at him
"I know I look ugly when I cry" he said with a smile
"No you look cute too when you're vulnerable, it makes me want to pet you" she said and they just stared at each other until she realized what she had said and moved her eyes away,
"Julius don't overthink" he murmured and said
"Let's go home"
He took her home
"Are you not going to come in?"
"No I have some work"
"Julius aren't you working too much nowadays? Your eyes looks tired"
"I love it when I hear your concern for me it makes my heart feel so warm.....anyways it's just my company is making a major change in our business and I have to ensure everything goes well"
"You'll be great and take care of yourself and if you're tired rest a little even if it means you stopping to see me on your free time"
"Spending time with you is my relaxing time, Aileen when I am alone my mind will work"
"Ok bye" she said
"Wait Aileen"
"Yes"
"If I ever keep something from you or lie to you in future forgive me when you find out and don't push me away from your life because of it,"
"Lol we talked about this Julius, you doing that means you wanted the best for me. Don't worry nothing is going to come between us" she said and went inside
