Love, what a disastrous concept. Sometimes people do the worst for it, degrading themselves to their lowest. And sometimes people get nothing from it, and try their best to smile. But what would happen if a poor soul, lost his sense of hope and embr...
For the past 3 weeks, Alex slowly recovers from his injuries often receiving visits as well as gifts from his family, Audrey and even Barry's group.
But no matter how long it took him to recover, his right eye is beyond saving, rendering his right eye useless as vision become lost and its grotesque appearance made Alex shiver in disgust. The once pearly white sclera now a bloody whitish pink, with his iris that was previously brown now a ghastly white. The skin around the damaged eye became a few shades redder as red veins seem to originate from the remnants of the eye.
He was then given an eyepatch to cover the remnants if his eye. Though sadden that he could no longer see through his right eye, he can't help but admire the simple design of his eyepatch since it was given to him by Jacob.

Aside from the new visual perspective, Alex changed entirely as a whole. No longer the kind and gentle soul, but replaced with a cold and apathetic demeanor. He silently lied in his bed as he recovers from his injuries from Adam's beatings.
Many thoughts ran through his head as he looks out the window as he lied there with a stoic look on his face. He wondered as to what would be his future predicament once he returns to school after everyone learned the truth of his innocence.
He felt a slight pang of anger when the face of Ashley entered his mind. Her betrayal officially destroyed their once unbreakable bond, he accepts the fact that Ashley left him in the dark to suffer and pay for a crime that he did not commit.
He heard the door to his room open, he then turned his only functioning eye to look at Audrey who came to visit. She then gives him a warm smile as she closes the door behind her, Alex wanted to smile back but he doesn't have the energy to even turn his head to properly face her.
It made him feel pathetic and worthless.
"How are you feeling today Alex?" Audrey said in a gentle voice, her wirries and concerns grows as she sees Alex's miserable state.
Alex merely hummed in response, his throat hurts with intensity whenever a sound exits his lips, he wanted to greet her back but the pain in his neck is far too great.
Audrey saw his difficulty to talk or even hum, she then approaches Alex with a caring smile as she gently rubbed his forehead. Alex shifted a little in comfort as he feels Audrey's soft fingers running through his head.
"Are you hungry? Do you want to eat something Alex?" Audrey asked in an angelic voice laced with deep worry and concern.
Alex nodded weakly as he looks at her in pain, his body needing nutrition to recover from his wounds.
Audrey then placed down her bag as she then pulls out a plastic container that releases a desirable aroma. She then pulled a chair to sit closer to Alex and removed the cover of the container revealing a delicious masterpiece.

Alex looks at the meal with eyes full of hunger and anticipation, he then looked at Audrey wide-eyed seeing the quality of the meal, more importantly it's attractive scent.
He then tries to speak in a weak and pained voice, struggling to speak as his throat aches at his vocal chords vibrating.
"Y-you made this?" Alex pointed at the food, he didn't expect the food to be delivered to him be made with marvelous quality.
Audrey then replied in a joyful tone that perfectly reflects her heavenly face. "Why yes I did. Why are you asking?"
"It looks amazing!" Alex cheered at Audrey with amazement, making her blush crimson red.
Alex then started to cough violently as he holds his throat in pain, Audrey then held him gently as she tries to soothe his pain with eyes full of worried tears.
Meanwhile at Cherryvile National High, the news of Alex's innocence reached the ears of every individual within the building, with all the disbelievers widen their eyes in shock and soon formed to guilt.
Their hearts heavy with guilt and remorse remembering their unjust treatment towards Alex, but the one who was affected most by the unexpected announcement was Ashley as she stood at a hallway hysterically staring at the speaker.
Within Ashley's mind flowed a sea of regrets and negativity, her heart burdened with pain as if the ground is trying to pull her in. She then cried tears of regret as she reminisced the harsh treatment she have unjustly done towards Alex without hearing his side of the story.
For the past weeks she searched high and low for Alex with the determined desire to reconcile and hopefully repair their broken bond, her heart longing for the presence of Alex the boy she wronged.
Unfortunately for her, reconciliation and forgiveness slowly becomes impossible as Alex's mind and heart slowly fill with vengeful malice. His heart no longer longing for Ashley and slowly replaced with immense hatred for her betrayal and blindness to the truth.
After 3 long agonizing weeks of recovering, Alex was then discharged from the hospital to continue his studies back to his school. He wasn't exactly happy to return to the place that made his life for the past months miserable, he harbored grudges and hatred against almost everyone that attends classes there.
As he walks through the hallway, stares of shock and disbelief are immediately focused at him. Alex silently stood at the entrance of his classroom for a few seconds before giving a big sigh and enter the room.
"Alex! Your back!" A female voiced exclaimed seeing his presence.
"Woah! He is really here!" A male voiced exclaimed in astonishment seeing him again.
The entire room then approaches him curiously with many questions running through their mind, unaware of the anger and malice that slowly radiates from Alex.
"Hey, what's with the eyepat-" A curious student tries to inspect Alex's eyepatch, only to be halted from doing so as Alex held her arm with a frighteningly strong grip.
"Back off!" Alex growled with a threatening tone as his face contorts to that of anger and fury.
The class backed off from the angered Alex, they were stunned upon witnessing his aggressive display and sudden change of demeanor.
The student that was under his harsh grip begs Alex to let her go and started to mumble apologies as tears escape her eyes, the pain swelling from her crushed hands coursing through her arm. Alex looked at her angrily and simply lets go and pushes her off, making the female student stumble onto the floor.
"You better keep your hands to yourself or I would do the honors of breaking them." Alex said in a cold and sinister voice, the atmosphere of the room suddenly shifted, no longer sunny and warm but that of immense fear.
The students looked on in silence too shocked to move, the girl that was under his grip stopped crying and looked at his menacing gaze with a feeling of fear, the entire class felt a shiver run down their spine as they watch Alex walk to his desk and lay his arms and head on his table.
