Chapter 25: Chapter 25

What happened? The doctor asked, seeing Beck on the stretcher with bruises and Alexia walking beside him, with a girl besides her.

He passed out before we got to them, it might be as a result of the bruises, and dehydration, and he is burning with fever, so you should check him. One of the doctors from the military medical department kept giving details about their health condition of Beck.

The doctor nodded as he signal the other doctors to take Beck in, while he assign another to take care of Alexia and the lady beside her.

No, I want to go with him. Alexia said when he saw that Beck is been led to another ward while she was to another.

No Ma! You can't go in and you too need to be checked up and you have nothing to worry about these doctors are the best.

Alexia nodded as she too needed treatment, she was taken into the private ward, and as the doctors get busy with her, she was given an IV drip in her because she might be dehydrated, after a series of tests run on her.

In no time, the door flew open, revealing her parents, she looks at her mother that hugged her so tight.

Hey hon, you don't want to suffocate her? Prime minister Lee said pulling Emily and he too hugged his daughter.

Dad, I thought you said mom is going to suffocate me? Alexia said as Lee pulled from the hug, his face full of tears. Mom, what did you do to dad? Alexia ask as she saw her father crying in front of everyone.

Stop teasing your dad, you should know it's tears of joy. Lee said as he wiped his tears but he just can't stop sobbing.

Oh, prime minister, you don't want the entire country to know that their prime minister is sharing tears? Fred Rick said as he too rushed into the ward.

Stop teasing dad, sir. Alexia said as she hug Xander's father and then Jessica hugged her as well.

I missed you. Alexia said as she hugged Jessica. Where is...

Right here. Xander said as she peck his forehead, she couldn't bring herself to kiss Xander.

I missed you, all of you. Alexia said as her tears begin to fall, Maxwell and Leah walked in.

Oh, the crybaby is back? Leah said as she run to hug Alexia.

Hm! Why are you just coming? Alexia asked Maxwell.

You should ask Leah, she is so obsessed with someone.

Who? Alexia asked, Maxwell, hugged her.

Missed you, I was scared when I heard the news, I couldn't bring myself to accept the fact that, you might not come back to us. Maxwell said as tears of joy, fall from his eyes as well.

Whoa! Everyone is turning into a crybaby. Jessica tease Maxwell, everyone laughed as Alexia rested on Xander's shoulder.

I am happy that I am with you all, so happy that, I could finally meet all of you, my presence here is all thanks to handsome.

Handsome!!! Everyone asked at the same time, she nodded at them and Xander's face go sour.

Is that his name? Leah asked, Maxwell, pushed her head and speak.

Who named their child handsome?

Oh, I called him that, he refused to tell me, his name, so I called him that, I wondered how is he. Can we go see him now? Alexia said.

No!!! Xander screamed and everyone stared at him. Oh! What I mean is that he is not yet out of danger and his family wouldn't like it when we invade their privacy.

That is true and... The door opened, revealing the lady that, was brought with them, Alexia hugged her and then introduce her to all her family, Although she had no idea what is going on, with the smiles on each face, she could tell they accept her, Alexia told them how she helps them and how Beck save her, with all the story she is telling, Xander isn't comfortable with it.

I think we should go home. Xander said.

But why? Alexia asks, he caresses her face.

I don't want you here, having you here, makes me get scared and I don't think, I could take it if anything bad happened to you. Xander cooked up a story that doesn't link.

That's true baby, let's go home. Emily said kissing her.

But mother, I don't think, I am fit to go home.

Come on, we should ask the doctor, and if you need anything, I could come pick you up and take you to the hospital, I missed you. Xander try to persuade her, but she nodded with pleading eyes of everyone.

Dad, I want to come home with her. Alexia said as she noticed that, she is the only one that she is comfortable with and it will not be right if she is left here with no one guarding her; Beck is not a woman, that she could be comfortable with.

No problem, at last, you have another sister. Leah said as she touches the girl's hair.

What is her name? Emily asked, Alexia, looked at her.

I will call her Maya. Alexia said, right here, he had named her, one thing about Alexia, once she loves, she loves completely, and when she hated she hated with all her heart.

That being the case, let me make arrangements for your discharge. Xander said as he peck her lips and leave.

I will come with you. Jessica said, as she hurries out with him, when those people are chitchatting, waiting for the decision of the doctor, Alexia sneak out to look for Beck, when she finally found the ward, she was surprised to see that Beck is still unconscious but his injury had been tame and he is no longer bleeding. She rushed to the doctor.

How is he?

You have nothing to worry about, he will be fine and I am sure, in the next thirty minutes, he will be up.

Thirty minutes? She asked so she could delay a bit to tell him, thank you and asked for his address.

Yes, as I said, he is okay and nothing is alarming about his situation. Alexia smiled as she walked into the ward, she sit beside him and caress his hand.

The doctor said you will be up in the next thirty minutes, I am happy that you are safe, we both made it, I am so excited, so you should get well fast, I know you are strong and you could do it. She pecks his head...

Alexia, come on let's leave. Xander called out to her.

Give me, a second, I will be out. She said pulling the pen from the table and writing her name on his palm.
