chapter 9
Alexa
I open my phone to see that I got a few messages from my Secretary and then the other is from Elijah. I just ignore his messages and replying my secretary. After that, I blocked him because I don't want anything to be with him. Hoping he will understand that I don't want him to be n my life ever again. I get up from my bed and walk towards the bathroom. I undress and then taking a shower. I feel relax when the warm water running down through my body. After a few minutes, I walk out from the bathroom with my bathrobe and also a towel on my head to dry my hair.
I walk into my walk-in closet to choose an outfit of the day. After I stare at all my dresses and all, I decided to wear a white blouse with my black pencil skirt. Then I turn on the hairdryer to make my hair dry faster. I just comb my hair to make it straight. For my makeup, I just put a simple but elegant make up that match with my appearance today. I look at the time and quickly take my black pump.
I walk out of my room after I'm done with my appearance. Walking downstairs to see that the twins already wake up and waiting for me in front of the dining room. "Mommy! Good morning!" They said in unison and I smile at their cuteness. "Goooood morning to both of you." I kiss their cheeks and walk inside to have our breakfast.
"Good morning Ms. Johnson," Dolly said as soon as I enter the dining room with smiling. "Morning Dolly. Come and eat breakfast with us." I said and she just nodded and sat beside Gabriella.
"Mmmm I love pancakes.." Gabriella said and shove the pancakes into her mouth making her mouth full. While Gabriel is putting more Nutella on his pancakes. I love to see that my babies eat well. I eat mine until the last bite.
"Twins, mommy has to go to work now," I said and grabbed my handbag. They come to me and hug me. "Don't be naughty alright? Be nice and one more thing don't fight." I said to them. I said the same thing to them every day to be honest cause I want them to be good kids. They nodded their head and hug me again.
"Bye, mommy." Gabriel and Gabriella said in unison and I walk out of the house. Walk to my black Porsche and unlock it. As soon as I get in, I start the engine and then drive to work.

"Ms. Johnson, there's someone want to meet you," Hera said and I raised my eyebrows.
"Who?" I ask.
"A man and he said it's important. Should I let him in?" I silence in a few seconds until Hera talk again. "Ms?"
"Oh yeah, let him in.." I said and continue to do my work while waiting for Hera call 'that man' in. I just do my work until my office door open. I look up to see who it is then my smile turned into a frown. Elijah. My nightmare becomes real now when he standing in front of me in my office.
"What are you doing here? Didn't I say I didn't want to meet you ever again? Or maybe you didn't understand English hmm?" I said with pissed voice cause why can't he leave me alone. Didn't he's the one who throws me like trash?
"Babe, I'm here because I want to bring you out for lunch." He said and his voice just casual like nothing's happened.
Okay, what the heck?
"Why would I think I want to go and lunch with you? You just wasting your time. Just go back to New York, Elijah." I said and look at my paper works. I don't have time to talk with a guy like him because it just wasting of time. This type of guy will never understand if I say I don't him in my life.
"Alexa, didn't you read my message that I sent to you? I said that no matter how hard you try to push me from your life, I will always come back to you. Don't you read it?" I scoffed.
"You want me back, After all, you did to me three years ago? Do you have amnesia cause I think I still remembered what you said to me when I caught you having sex with another woman. Well let me throw back what you said to me, you said you don't love me anymore. You said you felt like our marriage was a huge mistake you've ever done in your life and also you said that why you have to be tied down so early when you still can enjoy myself with another woman. Remembered now?" I said to him and stand up. I walk to him and slap him on his face hard. I really want to do that and this time I really did it.
He looks shocked by my action. "Hurt? But it didn't feel the same as I felt when you left me alone with our unborn babies three years ago.." I said and he stays silent. "Didn't this what you want? Freedom. Now you already got it so why bother trying to get me back while you can have ANY women you want." I said with anger in my voice and also I feel my body already heat from anger.
"Alexa.... I know I did the wrong thing but that's three years ago. Just forget about it and we can start a new family with our children." He said and trying to hold me but I took a step back prevent his dirty hand on me. "Baby, please. I will change." He adds.
"Even if you change, you can't make the scars in my heart disappear just like that. So please stay away from me and my children." I said and I know if I look at him my tears will fall down so I just look at my shoes. I didn't know why it is so hurt when I told him to go. Am I still love him?
NO! It can't be.
"Alexa, I'll never leave you alone. I'll try harder to make you mine back. I promise you." He said. I just away from his eyes. I don't want to be a weak woman who easily melts when a man said that to me.
"Go away Elijah. Please." Just then I can see his feet are walking away from me. I heard the door open and close. Now I can't even control my tears anymore. It's rolling down my cheeks. All the pain that he gave me three years ago came back.
Why? Why now he wants me back? It's been three years and I already have my own life with Gabriel and Gabriella.
I wipe my tears and walk to my seat. I take my phone and dialed Dolly. She picks up after a few rings. "Yes, Ms. Johnson?"
"Dolly can you please take care of them until late night cause I think I'll arrive home late today. You can sleep in the guest room. Can you?" I ask cause I need some time alone to forget about everything that happens today. I need some fresh air.
"Oh yeah sure. I can do that." She replies.
"Ok, then that's it. Tell them I am sorry cause I can't watch the movie with them. Bye." With that, I hang up and lean my head back. I close my eyes and take a deep breath.
When I open my eyes, I slowly arranged all the papers on my table then pick my phone and handbag. I walk out of my office to see Hera is doing her work. "Hera, cancel all my appointments for today. I didn't feel good." I said.
"Alright, Ms. Johnson." With that, I offer her a weak smile and then get down to the lobby.
After I get into my car, I just drive to the nearest park here. That's a good thing that it's not too many people in this park. I look at the time, it's 1:45 pm. I take a seat and look at the lake in front of me. It makes me calm.
I'm sorry Elijah but I can't accept you back in my life cause you leave me a really deep scar in my heart. It's so hurt. I hope you will stay away from me as you did three years ago.
Don't ever come back.
please...
