ALEXANDRITE POV

How did he find out?

I didn't reply because I didn't know how to.

"Answer me! And don't you dare lie!" he raised his tone.

"Yes."

"And you didn't think to tell me?" he asks.

"I wanted to but I didn't know how. How did you find out?" I ask.

"Does it matter how I found out? Alex, you allowed me to think that Micheal was just your old friend just so he can stay here?!"

"That's not true! Micheal is my old friend and Egypt's father and I just never told you. And I never told you we were friends so that he can stay here, you insisted that he did. Look, I was gonna tell you but I never know when was the right time and how to tell you."

I'm disappointed in you Alex. You told me Egypt's father was in an ongoing, probably never-ending coma and that she'll always be mine!" he says.

"And he was! Micheal took a bullet to the head and was in a coma. I thought he wasn't gonna wake up so I made that promise," I clarify.

"I don't even know what to believe anymore, especially if it's coming from you. I'm going out with my brother," he says as he leaves.

I stormed upstairs to make a very angry call.

MICHEAL POV
Amara and I were dancing to some 90's music when Alex called. I don't know why but I rushed to answer it.

Boy how I miss her voice.

"You little son of a bitch! How dare you tell Micheal about Egypt without my consent?! You said you would only tell Egypt but you went and tell Arnold too?"

"What you talking 'bout? Ion said shit to Arnold. I only told Egypt that I'm her biological father and⁠-"

"Wait what??? Egypt's your daughter??? You told me she was your niece! You liar. Why would you lie about something like that? What else have you lied about Micheal? Is this even your house? Is that even your car? I can't believe you lied about something like that Micheal! I'm leaving!" Amara says as she grabs her purse and leaves.

Great, just great!

"Alex you little mother fucker!"

"I hope she breaks up with you for this! If I knew you only wanted to jeopardize my marriage I would have never even tell Arnold about you. I would have just pretended to not know you," she says angrily.

"That doesn't make any sense cause I would have just told him half of your biography. Then he would have know who you truly are. And talk about jeopardizing relationships, you never like Amara ever since you found out we were talking. I see the way you look at her when she's with me," I spit.

"Oh you did not just go there. Let's talk about how you tense up whenever Arnold touches me and how you stare at him with loath in your eyes whenever we kiss," she argues.

"Lies! You're only saying that because you still have feelings for me," I say.

"You know what, I really do still have feelings for you. At least I'm woman enough to admit it! You too still have feelings for me but refuse to admit it."

She really does still have feelings for me.

"I still do have feelings for you Alex and I'm not even going to cap. I don't think they will ever go away and the more I try to love you less, the more I love you," I admit.

There was now complete silence. Here we are, confessing our love for each other over the phone like teenagers.

She finally broke the silence by saying, "Um...I'm gonna go."
