Soldier can't you talk? Ashley yelled at Gerald, slowly he turned and look at the face of Ashley. You don't want me to punish you, do you?
Oh, what I mean is, that some cadets have been dying to have the taste of Gen Beck's lips on theirs. Ashley didn't throw an eye on him, she just turned and walked away, Gerald held his chest, as he noticed that Ashley is not ready to listen to his rubbish, she is aware that, everyone had been crushing on Beck for as long as he exists but have never thrown an eye on any of them or give them a hint to flirt with him, he is more like a rock that is difficult to crack, how Alexia cracks him is still a mystery to her.
And if it is some spell the young lady cast on him, she is going to do anything to make sure that, she breaks that spell. Even if she had to kill Alexia just get her Beck then we will do it.
***
It was the weekend already, and Alexia had returned home, although she doesn't want to go, after Gerald told her that, her constant going home, will only make them show her the gate out of the camp and she doesn't want that, that is the only way, she could be with Beck, even if he doesn't recognize her or tell her that he loves her, seeing him, give her joy, even if he is not hers.
She had slept all through the morning, when it was lunch, her father and mother send for her, and she walked slowly into the living room.
Hey baby, what's up with the headscarf? Emily asked her, she signed, her parents have no idea that she was shaved at the camp.
It's nothing.
What do you mean by nothing? You should let your hair flow, you know I love your hair, my sweet daughter. Prime minister said, as he try to pull the scarf from her head, she held his hand.
Father no, I don't want to.
Fine, let's eat and we have something to discuss with you.
What is it, father?
Stop being in a hurry to get the information, you should eat and what's up with the sweater and jeans, covering every part of your body? If there is one thing, prime minister Lee hold dear is this daughter of his, he could do anything for her, he doesn't want her to get hurt, they say Alexia turned into a weakling because of her father and his Overprotective nature towards her.
Come on father, I am trying to be a decent girl, have you forgotten that you always tease me that, everyone had seen all the skin, I was supposed to be hiding?
Fine, you got father there. Emily's gaze didn't leave Alexia, she is aware that, Alexia's hair is gone, she saw her bare when she was sleeping, before now, she would have just spilled the beans, she doesn't even know why she is trying to hide the truth that their daughter's hair is gone if it's just hair that she lost, to get what she wants then it's nothing since her hair will grow again.
So father, why did you call for me, did you miss me that much? Alexia teases her father.
Silly, the thing is, your mom and I have arranged a dinner meeting for you tomorrow since you will be going back to the camp by Monday. Prime minister Lee said he knows that his daughter is not going to take him seriously if he doesn't sound authoritative.
Alexia shakes her head, this can't be happening, her father knows fully well that, her eyes are only on Beck, and Beck is the only man, she loves, she thought he understands her, what changed all of a sudden, why is he going to push her into someone that, she doesn't love or know.
You have nothing to worry about, you know him, I am sure, you going to like him, he is from a respectable family, he is tall, handsome and got all the qualities that your Gen Beck has. For the first time, Alexia felt like her father is talking nonsense and probably, drinking more than his brain could carry, why will he compare her Beck with some man on the street, her Beck is handsome, responsible, and aloof man, that is what makes her want him, and only him.
For the first time, she pick someone else apart from Xander and her father had to go against it, if he is not against it, he will not have suggested anyone else, he would have just supported her and no one else.
Just tell me, the address I will meet him there and thanks for the meal. Alexia said standing without taking another bit of the food.
You should sit, I heard the military camp doesn't supply all the necessary diet that you need, and look at you, you reduce big time, do they even care for you? I told you, that place...
Father stop already, I am fine, you promised to stand by me, you promised to support whatever decision, I make, why are you doing this now?
I had been fucking letting you make your decision and just following everything you said, not for once, as my daughter, have I ever gone against your decisions, but what did they turn out, they are bad.
Honey!
You should stop Emily, stop it already, I gave Alexia so much freedom, and I didn't want her to feel that we are the ones running her life, from when she pick Xander to when she decided to go into the military, I didn't stop her, did you know that Xander and Jessica were cheating on her, that is the reason she calls off the wedding.
Emily's eyes fall open, she can't believe what she is hearing, she turned her gaze to Alexia, not to scold her daughter, but she just can't imagine, the pain of betrayal that her daughter must have gone through, yet, there was no one here to console her, all those nights, she must have wet her pillows because of those two bastards betrayal. They were just carried away, thinking that, Alexia is the one, who break Xander's heart because she fell in love with another, not knowing that, Xander is the one at fault but their innocent daughter had taken the blame and all the harsh words from society.
Alexia!!!
Mom, I am...
No, it's not your fault, my daughter.
It's her fault, everything is her fault, her fault for acting always like a child and now, this madness of military and falling hopelessly for a boy that is not ready to love her or anyone.
Father, that is not... Her hand unconsciously slipped the scarf off her head and her shaved hair visited prime minister Lee
Who the heck did this to you?
