High School: Way to Forever

Alex was a little shocked. He never thought that Mother Marrie would ask him about his parents.

"They are busy somewhere else. You don't have to call them. Just, can you please pass me my phone? I need to call my younger brother." Marrie nodded and passed his phone to him.

When he opened the lock, he saw twenty missed calls were there in total. Seven from Scott and thirteen from his big brother.

He ignored Big brother's missed calls and directly called Scott.

"Hello, Scott?"

"Brother, you are okay? It's almost midnight and you are not at home. Even my elder brother called me up a few times." Alex's eyes darkened up hearing this. But he still tried his best to maintain normal expression because of Mother Marrie's presence.

"Brother? Are you there?"

"Yeah, I'm alright. Don't worry. I will come back soon so you go and sleep now. Don't pick strangers' calls, you understand?"

Scott got the hint. "Yes, brother! Take care." Both of them hang up.

"You have a younger brother?" Marrie listened to what Alex was saying to his brother.

"Yes. His name is Scott."

"Nice name. Is he alone at home?" she asked worriedly. It was because of them that Alex was lying in hospital and his brother was alone at home. She thought the child might be afraid.

"He is a brave child. He isn't alone, the butler is with him." Marrie nodded.

"When will Anna wake up?" This was what he wanted to know since he woke up.

"Maybe just in a few minutes." Marrie sat beside Anna and started rubbing her forehead. She used to do the same when Anna was a child. Little Anna never slept on time and this was the only way she used to sleep.

When Liam came inside, he saw this scene.

He didn't disturb Marrie because he knew she was afraid today.

Liam's eyes traveled to Alex. This was the boy who saved his Anna. Nice!

Liam cleared his throat.

Marrie came back to their senses and turned around and saw Liam.

"You should go home. I'm here." But Marrie ignored his words. How can she leave her child here alone?

"Marrie..."

"Shut up. You can go back to your house. Your bed warmer might be waiting for you."

Liam was stunned hearing this. Did she bring Jenra in between their talks? Why? He felt it was not necessary especially since Anna's friend was also there in the ward.

"Boy, what is your name?" Liam turned towards Alex.

"Alex."

"Alex? And? I mean your family." He will never let any normal guy run around her daughter. But before he could have continued, Marrie interrupted him.

"Liam, you are so disgusting. You are actually asking him his surname? Get out from here! Don't disturb any of us. Go OUT!"

Liam reluctantly walked out.

Seeing him leaving, Marrie sighed. She turned to Alex.

"Sorry child."

"No problem Aunt."

.....

After 1 hour.

Anna slowly opened her eyes. She felt her head was spinning. "M..mu...m...." Anna felt her through was not working. It was so dry!

"Baby, you are finally awake!! Thank God! Let me call the doctor." Marrie was going to call the doctor but Anna held her hand.

"W-wat...ter."

"Oh... I forgot. Here drink it." Mother Marrie made her drink water.

Anna felt her back sore. Her hand was heavy and her head was spinning.

Mother Marrie made her sit with the bed's support. "Baby, see. Someone else is also there."

At first, Anna saw a blurred image. But later, she fully opened her eyes and saw ALEX!

"A-Alex? What are you even doing here?"

"Anna, he donated blood for you. You both share the same blood group."

Marrie left the ward to call the doctor leaving Alex and Anna alone in the room.

"Thank you, Alex." She was a little surprised that they both shared the same blood group.

Alex came closer to her face. He went near her ear and whispered,

"Now, we are mixed together Anna. You have my blood. Isn't it represents you are mine?"
