Chapter 26: Chapter 26

Alexia was running out when Jesse and May, were coming in, she hit Jesse. Sorry!!! She said as her hair flowed behind her, Jesse's eyes opened wide, he saw her, earlier but he didn't take notice of her. she is beautiful. Jesse murmured while May pushed his head. Hey stop it, I was only admiring God's creation.

Really? May asked the field Marshall and his family walked into the ward that minutes, interrupting the two.

Beauty!!! Beck screamed, coming out of comatose, everyone stared at him, and he wipe his eyes, seeing the face of his grandfather, his vision wasn't clear.

Son!!! Field Marshall Zul called him, so it's clear that he is home with his family.

Grandpa!!! He called as he hugged him. You are alive. He said hugging him. I know you will come back to me. Field Marshall's tears drop.

Grandfather, you are crying? Beck asked, he pulled from Beck and hit his shoulder. You got me worried, can you not be stubborn for once?

You should know, I took that from you. Beck said, then bow to his grandmother.

Son, we are happy that you are here. Sara hugged him.

I am happy that I could see you all again, how are the camp and everyone at...

Can you stop asking about the camp? Barracks? Please ask for something else. Field Marshall said, everyone laughed at his words, right now, field Marshall doesn't care that his subordinate are there.

I brought you food with those lovely desserts, you love. Ashley's voice distracted everyone in the room, she hurry to Beck and hugged him. Welcome back, you look slim, you lost a lot of weight. Ashley said it was obvious he did lose a lot of weight.

Really?

Yes, General, so you should eat and gain weight fast, so you can go back to...

No oh! Field Marshall stops Jesse, he doesn't want to hear anything about the military.

Didn't you hear what field Marshall said? He doesn't want to hear him talk about the camp or barracks. May said as they laughed.

Grandpa, what should I ask of now? Beck asked as he chew on the fruit.

The one, you called beauty? Jesse said, now all eyes are on Jesse, Beck glare at him, he is aware that, he had committed a crime against Beck and Beck is not going to spare him, he bit his lower lips, he would have just kept quiet and waited till he is left alone with Beck.

Son, go on and tell us. Sara said, Beck, bit his lips, then run his palm on his nape.

Come on!!! Field Marshall urges him.

Come on grandpa, is no one and you shouldn't mind this naughty soldier here.

But I heard you blurt out that name, you heard that too, May? May shake her head fast, she is not going to get involved in this, Beck frown since he knows they will not stop bugging him.

Did the girl survive? He asked changing the topic.

Oh, prime minister Lee's daughter. Beck choke on his grandfather's words. Careful son. Field Marshall run his hand on his back, Jesse look at him, he could see that, their General is hooked but how come, he doesn't know the name of the girl, that they have been together in these past months, if he is not mistaking, Beck and that girl spend two months; two weeks and three days in that island, which means they didn't tell each other about their personalities.

Sorry, I just swallow without chewing, who did you say the girl is? Beck asked, he want to assume, he didn't hear the first time.

Her name is Alexia Lee, she is the prime Minister's daughter and she is supposed to be married in that...

Fine, I got it now. Beck doesn't want Ashley to continue, he doesn't want to hear, that he kissed someone else fiancee or should he say wife-to-be, passionately.

Are you alright? His grandfather asked, he nodded and then held his temple to calm himself.

Yes, I want to be left alone and I want to go home.

But...

Please, grandpa. Beck said, they all nodded and leave him, when Beck walked into the washroom, he saw the name, boldly written on his palm, Alexia Lee. He pour water on it and washed it off, he hate the fact that his heart is longing for someone else wife.

He hated the fact, that he kissed her. Washed his face like he wants to wash Alexia off his memory, Beck hated everything happening to him, he hated that he loves someone for the first time but he just can't get her, he can't believe he fall in love with someone else fiancee, he will try to forget everything about her.

It's a good thing, that their part might not cross again, since they are world apart and he doesn't have the luxury of love. When he gets better, he could go back to being a soldier and forget every stupid thing called love.

He doesn't want to get hurt, and he doesn't want to put his heart on the line, and that is the reason, he doesn't want to fall in love.

The more, he washed those thoughts off his head, the more her face came flashing in his head.

Damn you! He said as he scrubbed his palm, he scrubbed harder, even when her name is erased from his palm.

Beck darling, let's leave already, grandpa, is in the car already.

I will be out in no time. He said as he pulled out the door of the washroom, Ashley could see how devastated he was, she could get the complete picture, her beloved Beck had fallen in love with that naughty girl.

She has watch Beck's countenance as soon as field Marshall mentioned that girl is the prime Minister's daughter.

Beck didn't say a word to her, as he makes his way out of the ward to the car.

****

The girl with Alexia refused to take her bath, Alexia was already sleeping, since the effect of the drugs is telling on her and right now, they need to get Maya to have her bath, that is the name Alexia gave to her, her hair is looking Tangled and her skin is a bit dull and her face is looking horrible, She was able to receive treatment earlier because of Alexia.

Come on, you should bathe, this is soap, water and a towel. Leah said, she looks at Leah as she gesture for her to wash but Maya couldn't get what Leah is saying.

Oh God! Why did they have to leave me with her? Leah complain bitterly, as she put on the shower, it became worse, Maya screamed at the top of her voice, Maxwell heard the scream and push the door, At that moment, Maya run into his hand, Maxwell was the second person, she is close to.

Leah, what are you doing to her? Maxwell asked.
