A Tale of Love (EXCHANGE LOVE #1)

5 years ago

Alexander

Sophie looked petrified, when I showed the phone to Gabriel he seemed just as shocked but it only lasted for a few moments before he was fuming.

I was about to say something else to Sophie, but before I even got to, a blonde guy dressed in sweats came running inside and said "You need to hide love".

I looked at him and in a second before I could even process what happened when Gabriel took the guy by the neck and slammed him to the wall.

"Who the fuck do you think you are showing your ugly face in front of my sister again you little shit" WOAH this is the first time I have seen the guy so angry, let a lone in front of his sister, he always seems to be so soft around her, which makes me think whatever he did was horrible so before I have time to think twice of it I pull Sophie towards me and hug her protectively looking at the guy that seems to be turning blue in Gabe's grasp.

"Let him Go Bam Bam" Sophie says softly getting out of my hold and tugging on her brothers arm slowly.

"are you sure SoSo? we can just call the cops you know that right? " she just nods and he lest him fall to the ground where he tried to catch his breath.

Sophie helps him up and looks at me "Alex I know I should have before, but theres something I have to tell you" she says looking at me with such sadness that made want to do anything to help her, but I remained quiet and followed her to the living room with her brother and the mysterious guy in tow. I think she just need for us to listen now.

We all took a seat in the couch, with me in the middle of Gabriel and the guy to stop him from tying to murdering him again.

"Gabriel, i lied to you" Sophie began saying

"About what SoSo?"

"Alexander this is Vincent"she said motioning to the guy on my side,

"I lied to you  Alexander and to you too Gabe you see the accident that happened before, when we got out of the road... well  Vance caused that, and Vincent helped me"

I just looked at her more confused than before.

"You KNEW they were back and didn't say anything?!" Gabriel said almost loosing his shit ready to pounce on the guy, but regaining his composure the last second when he saw the scared look on his sister face.

"Calm down Gabe, I will tell you both the whole story, cause brother not even you know everything".  

She took a seat at the couch in front of us, cause I think she needed the space to let everything out and started her story.

"You see Alex 5 years ago when I came to see my father I was in a car accident after a drive with the family of a friend of mine, they all died, but I  had a head injury that left me in a coma, my family was desperate because I didn't have many chances to recover, but my mother heard of a clinic back home in France with the best care for comatose patients, so she took me there, but since my parents had to spend a lot on my recovery dad and Gabe didn't get to visit me, and after 3 years I woke up a 16 year old girl with no memory of the incident itself"... this was a lot to take in, I mean how did she come to be so ok after, she is in the same grade as me, this just makes me admire her even more. But I still have so many questions, but I keep them in and let her continue.
