Stand by me

Chapter 5

Alisha p.o.v

See the same dream my nightmares are scaring me seeing my brother's face make me feel safe he hugs me patting my back

” don’t cry everything will be alright “ hearing his words than I realize I am crying I am a strong woman I don’t show my emotions easily

” Are you okay? “ he asked me I just nodded saying yes

“I write some tablets take before sleeping, “lily said “thanks, “ I say, “let’s go home, “ David says leaving the hospital I leave my there I go with David.

“hay bro, “ I say to him “ humm, “ he says looking at the road “about my nightmares...please don’t tall mom “ he glares me “why” retaining his eyes on-road “I don't want to hurt her “

“ if you don’t want to hurt her than why are you refusing this marriage offer “

“I don’t want to marry can’t you understand “

“ I know it’s hard for you but you will be safe there he can’t hurt you if you're married “

“Can’t you even save me? “ I said in anger “I’m sorry but I’m not always with you “I sigh I don’t want to argue with him he stop the car I don’t notice we are already home “go home mom is waiting for you “

——————————

“You’re late you miss family meeting how can you do that

Without saying anything I start going to my room

“ Ali uncle Richard is here,” she said pulling my hand “please Ali be nice and say yes after you’re father's accident he is the one who supports us.

“ she requests me what should I do God help me “ where is he,

“ I ask her “living room waiting for you “ I sigh “you should change your clothes, “ she said staring me I’m wearing (long sleeves crop shart loose sports pants) “ I’m fine I’m comfortable with that “

“Alisha he is your father's uncle you should wear something decent “ I don't have any energy to argue with her just nodding her yes I go to my room change into a mini dress (fashion arrival rascal net in red) let my hair open and go to meet him.

”Hello my child how are you” he hugs me he loves like his own daughter but” come sit with me “ I sit beside him “you look beautiful “ looking his smiling face how can I refuse this marriage.

“ can you please leave us alone I want to talk to her, “ he said to my mother she leaves us alone in the living room “you do know why I'm here” staring my hands I can’t answer his question my heart is racing to hold my sob I look away “can you please do me a last favor I don’t have much time dear, “ he said holding my hand tight “ what happen uncle are you sick, “ I said in sobbing teas are blaring my his face.

”I have a brain tumor I’m having my surgery in few months but after my surgery maybe my body will be paralysis or die “ I’m shocked I don’t have any world to say “please.... don’t say that I will pray for you uncle “

“marry my grandson Alisha “

“I.... can’t “Signs “ I can’t marry him”

“Please I’m begging you,” he says to me

“Please don’t say that it’s too hard for me, “I said

“Please my child please “looking him and bagging me what should I do I take a deep breath “fine I will marry him “ but I cannot tell him about my past I want to start my new life.

“But promise me you will do everything to save this

The marriage you will not give up promise me “ I nodded “I promise “
