Tempting love

Aleyah

It feels good, to be back.

Home.

A lot has changed since I left New York with my family. If anyone would have told me that in a whole year a lot could change my life l wouldn't believe it. Including losing one of my best friends.

Finley Harper. Son of Marilyn Harper she is a popular Model from France. We have been friends since Nursery, our mothers mostly even arranged play dates back then. Even enrolling us all to the same school.

I'm thankful for having Eileen, Allie, Sierra, Fin, Cas, Vinny and Ezra. In my life I can't imagine what I would done without them.

I know his death hit Cas the most. Cas and Fin had a bound, stronger than blood. They both went through thick and thin together, having eachothers back.

The day I got the news that he passed away was on my way home from school. It was all over the news, I rushed home calling Eileen.

She picked up the phone sobbing asking; "please tell me this is only dream and not reality Aleyah" I wish it was, unfortunately it's reality. I remember rushing into the house ignoring my mother calling after me. I turn the Tv on to BBC news. This were its hits me hard.

The News:

"It's been confirmed by the hospital, Finley Harper son of Marilyn Maerai Harper has unfortunately passed away in the hospital. Due a stabbing incident. He will be missed." The reporter states. As pictures of him showcase in the background on the screen.

Eileen's words blur out my mind. I couldn't believe it.

Since that day all I wanted is to go back home. Today is the day. We arrive at the Newark Airport. A black SUV waiting for us at the entrance.

I decided to wear a grey hoodie with black sweatpants. My boho twists down to my shoulder, I kept my makeup simple. On my way out, I took a few pictures minutes with some fans.

The warm sun shine, shines on my face. I smile. The feeling of happiness peeks out a second overflown by madness and grieving from the paparazzi. A news reporter steps beside us. Starting asking questions.

Rp :How do you deal with the loss of Finley ?

Will you attend at the funeral?

What are you looking forward to, at the Fairmont gala? A brand you reaching out to?

My head started spinning around. So many fucking questions i want to avoid right now. I wish i could just let a scream out and run away. A bodyguard led our way to the black SUV. My steps quickened faster and faster.

I feel a finger tip on my shoulder. I tore my attention to the woman and the girl at the age of 11. It's looks like a self made, elephant stuffed animal. Her big brown eyes sparkled by the shine of the sun. Her senegalese twist with curls at the ends, tide up in a ponytail caught a second of my attention i love them. Her hand reaches out for me.

"My mom made this for me. Before she left, now she is up in heaven with lila my dog. She said i could give it to person that's means a lot to me. You are one of the woman i looking up to. You are just like her. There are many moments I see you through her. When i am old enough i want to be, you." All i feel, tears run down my face.

I take the elephant and give her a hug. As i swirl around my bracelet with my finger. A gift from Cas with our entails on it. I exchange addresses with the woman as i thank them for the gift once again.

Wiping the tears away i finally make my way to the SUV i give my suitcase to the driver and walking to the other side of the car. As i am about to enter the car.

A reporter comes up to me with a mic in his hand and the camera close to my face as around us paparazzi clicking with their cameras. "One last question Ayleah before you,how do you feel about Caspian being back with his ex girlfriend Serena.

I thought there was something between you guys. Are you jealous?

Will you attend at the opening ceremony of Fairmont ? What is your opinion about Serena?

"What..." There is so much i wanted to say but i couldn't even form a proper sentence. I stood in shock for a second before i was pulled inside the car. Probably for the best then everyone else waiting for my answer. I get inside the car pulling myself together not to cry, in front of my family.

"Are you alright, sweetie." My mom asks as she rubs on my shoulder. We were the only ones in the car. Dad, Melanie and Jesper were in another SUV. I nod my head and decide to put my headphones on listen to music for the rest of car ride home.

What? Caspian and Serena are back together? It's not like i don't care but why did none say anything? They could have told me before i came back to New york. It's not like i feel hurt after what happened between us. We left things unsettled after our break up. 1 year ago.
