"Be my girlfriend for two months then I'll leave you alone!"

These words from him kept on coming back to my head. Why would I do such a stupid thing like that? I was not that desperate. If he wanted to have a girlfriend, he could have had one in the University. There were a lot of women who could have volunteered to be his girlfriend. Huh! He was just wasting my time. "Graynard. Why do you always get under my skin? Why? I wish I wouldn't see your face anymore." I hissed while punching my pillow as if it was Graynard.

A sudden knock on the door disturbed my thoughts of him. "Come in." It opened and I saw my aunt entered. Right after Graynard left last night I directly went to my room so to avoid any interrogations from her. I didn't know how to tell her the truth. I didn't know how to lie to her either.

"Are you ready?" She cheerfully asked me.

"Ready for what?" Confusion registered across my face as my eyes landed on her dress. "Do we have any plans for today?"

"We're going to the hospital now. Didn't you tell me you were going to visit Glenn?"

"Yeah. I remembered. But I thought you had an appointment with your doctor?"

"I postponed it. Besides, Dr Marfil has a meeting in Boston. He'll be back after three days."

"Okay.." I shrugged. "I'll just get ready." I only said though I still couldn't get her. She didn't mention that she would go to the hospital with me. It was kinda weird.

"I'll be waiting downstairs. Oh! By the way, before I forget.. Don't stay here long. Elizabeth and Graynard might be here in any minute." She spoke in a natural way as if I already had an idea that those demons would come.

"What????" I couldn't keep the shock on my face. What the hell!

She frowned at my reaction. "Elizabeth called me last night. She said you told Graynard about Glenn's condition. Why didn't you tell me about your relationship with that guy? You didn't even tell your mother about Glenn."

So, that gossip guy Graynard told my beloved mother about the condition of her one and only son. "Mom. I'm not in the mood to talk about that. And maybe I'll just call Lisa that I won't go today."

"Alexis. I understand your feeling but It's better if you open the door of your heart. You need to hear your mother's explanation. Just listen to her before you judge her."

I rolled my eyes. "Mom, I thought we're already done talking about this issue. Why do you keep on pushing me now."

"I have to. Elizabeth always asks me about you. She can't stop thinking about you, honey. She really wanted to hug you since the time you met her. Why don't you give her a second chance? Honey, everyone deserves a second chance."

I sighed. Yeah. She was my mother but they could not force me to grant their wish right away. I still had to cool things off. "Mom.." I reached for her hands and held them tightly. "I can't promise you now but please give me time to think about it. I still have to heal the wounds. It's not easy to forget. I just can't believe that my mom doesn't love me even my dad, her brother." I couldn't control my emotion anymore. Tears sprang from my eyes and it made her pull me into her arms.

"Honey she loves you but she had no choice that time. One day, you'll understand everything that I am telling you. As I've said, give her a chance to make up with you. And let her explain to you what happened between her and your father. I don't want to see you like this Alexis. I always want you to be happy. And I don't want you to feel that you are not being loved by the people around you. Honey, many people love you. You just can't see them because you're hurt and your heart is full of hatred." She whispered. She comforted me in a soothing voice.
