After the funeral we all headed back home looking unhappy, it was still a hard pill to swallow that grandma is gone and will never return to us. Amber fell asleep In the car and now she's still sleeping in her room.
I poured myself a glass of water and gulped it in the kitchen. I didn't have the appetite to eat and everyone in the house was still looking unhappy.
"Do you think if anything happened to you tomorrow people will mourn you like this?" I heard Aaron ask. I turned to look at him and let out a soft smile. His question was a deep one, I never thought of that.
"I don't know, so far I have been frayed with so much love, everyone acts like I'm their angel but you never know, things might change the moment I stop breathing.
I turned to look at Aaron, I wondered why he always asks the weirdest questions.
"Why do you ask? Do you think we might not mourn well if anything happened to either of us?" I asked him. I could already tell from his facial expression that he was thinking very differently from me. He has a bad relationship with his father so there's no way such thought won't cross his mind.
"Lucky you, at least you get loved while you're alive." He said to him almost in a whisper and poured himself a glass of water.
"You never know, you might be mourned more than you were loved when you were alive." I said to him and let out a soft smile.
"It won't matter anymore." He replied to me almost immediately and gulped the entire glass of water in the cup.
I heaved a sigh ahd both of us walked out of the kitchen and sat on the couch.
"What are you going to do now?" I asked him when we both sat on the couch.
"About?"
"You situation Alpha Aaron." I said to him sarcastically. Aaron didn't smile, talk more or laugh, he looked too serious even though it was a joke to me.
I could tell he was not pleased with the joke so I cleared my throat and stared at him. "Looks like you're back to your stiff personality." I said to him and sighed.
"I'm not, I was just lost in thought after you asked that question, that's the same question I have been asking myself for a while now.
"I noticed mom is avoiding you as well, did you two have a misunderstanding too?" I asked him. Aaron sighed and rested his head on the chair.
"She suddenly stopped talking to me or treating me like her son." I could tell how hurt Aaron was from the way he was talking. He sounded like he was going to cry but he was trying to sink it in very well.
"Did you try having a conversation with her?" I asked him and he nodded his head. I could tell how hurtful it was to be despised by your dad and all of a sudden your mom is on the same boat with your dad also avoiding you.
"That's serious." I replied to him almost immediately.
It's so hard to believe that he didn't do anything wrong and all of a sudden his mom stopped talking to him. She was so excited when he was returning and now she is no longer talking to him.
"You're going to be Alpha soon it's better you try and mend things with your mom and dad because you would need their blessings on that day.
"I have your dad's blessing and that's enough for me, he's the only one that has treated me like a family member since I got back." He replied to me, I nodded my head when I heard what he said to me.
"As long as you're happy that's what matters." I said to him ahd let out a bright smile.
"Are you two talking about babies?" I was shocked to hear the question Aaron asked me. I knew it was because grandma Sofia asked the same question last night at the dinning.
I stared at him with a blank head for a moment. I didn't know what to say to him. "No, we have decided to wait till we're both ready to have one." I replied to him had sighted Alpha Darrel walking down the stairs, our eyes met and Aaron also turned back to look at him.
"Looks like he's the clingy type." Aaron said to me. I turned to look at Aaron and sighed. It's not like we're in love. I wonder why he's always around me.
He finally got to the sitting room and sat down with us.
"I was looking for you when I woke up and you were nowhere to be found so I decided to come down and check." Alpha Darrel said to me when he got to the sitting room. I stared at him for a while, I could no longer tell if he was lying or telling the truth.
"Why were you looking for me?" I asked him.
"Nothing, you know I just like staring at your face when I wake up." He said to me, I turned to look at him with a surprised look, I can't believe he's going this far.
"You sound like you're obsessed." I said to him trying to annoy him. Alpha Darrel turned to look at me when he heard what I said. I know he was pissed to hear what I said.
"If you think so, who am I to deny it?" I turned to look at him looking shocked to hear what he said. I can't believe he's taking all these things just to prove that he really likes me.
Aaron was getting tired of both of us, if I was the one I would get tired too.
"I need to go take care of something in my room." Aaron said to us and walked away. I removed Alpha Darrel's hand from my shoulder the moment Aaron was out of sight.
"Stop trying so hard, why don't you understand?" I asked Alpha Darrel angrily.
"You started the act, so what were you expecting?" He asked me angrily.
I looked at him angrily and scoffed.
"You're unbelievable." I said to him angrily. And suddenly Alpha Darrel was moving closer to me with a smile on his face.
"What is wrong with you?" I asked him but he was not saying anything to me.
"You two better get a room." I heard my dad's voice. I finally understand why Alpha Darrel was acting differently all of a sudden.
"Dad." I turned to look at him and shifted from Alpha Darrell. I was shy because even though I'm pretending to be happily married I don't like my dad meeting us in such a state.
"You're married so it's okay, but you didn't do anything wrong." My dad said to us ahd excused himself. I stood up from the couch ahd headed upstairs.
Alpha Darrel stood up and followed me upstairs. While I was walking upstairs I kept showing it to him that I was upset with him for overdoing it downstairs even in front of Aaron.
When we got to the room I shut the door angrily and folded my hand across my chest.
"Why were you doing too much over there, you know that's my dad." I said to him angrily and placed my hand on my head. I don't know why I was upset but I was really upset.
"What exactly are you upset about?" He asked me and my head suddenly went blank. I didn't have any reply to give him because my anger was not justified.
"See, you just want to yell at me for no reason. Can't we just try and act like we're friends? We don't have to behave like married couples." He said to me and walked into the toilet angrily. I left my mouth open when I heard what he said to me.
I can't believe he just made me the bad guy, he was the one over doing it and now I'm the one over reacting? I sat on the bed and waited for him to come out of the toilet.
"He's going to tell me what I have done so wrong." I muttered to myself.
Suddenly I realized I might be the one wrong because I couldn't point out the reason why I was upset with him.
"I have to think of what to tell him." I said to myself.
