Ch: 136 [Truth & Lies] [Alana’s arc final chapter]
As Alex and Alana walked hand in hand along the night shore of the island, a gentle breeze caressed their faces. The sound of the crashing waves provided a soothing backdrop to their conversation. Alex couldn't shake off the guilt that had been weighing on him, knowing that he had deceived Alana from the start. He felt a deep need to be honest with her, to reveal his true identity and the purpose behind his initial approach.
'Should I tell her? Can I trust her with the truth? I can't keep deceiving her, especially when she's been nothing but honest with me,' Alex pondered, his thoughts racing. 'But will she be able to handle the truth? What if it shatters everything we've built?'
Alana glanced at Alex, sensing his internal struggle. She could feel a certain unease emanating from him, and it worried her. Her intuition told her that something was amiss, and she hoped that he would open up to her.
'Alex seems distant, preoccupied. There's a weight on his shoulders that he hasn't shared with me yet. I want to be there for him, to support him in whatever he's going through,' Alana thought, her concern growing. 'But I also fear what he might reveal. Can I handle the truth? Will it change everything between us?'
They found a quiet spot on the shore, away from prying eyes and the sound of the waves crashing against the shore provided a sense of privacy. Alex took a deep breath, gathering his courage.
"Alana, there's something important I need to tell you," Alex began, his voice filled with a mix of apprehension and determination. "But I need you to listen to me without interruptions until I've said everything. Can you promise me that?"
Alana nodded, her heart racing with a mix of anticipation and trepidation. She knew that whatever he was about to reveal would alter the course of their relationship.
This is it. The moment of truth. I need to be strong, to listen and understand, Alana thought, her grip tightening on Alex's hand. No matter what he tells me, we'll face it together.
Taking a deep breath, Alex continued, his voice steady yet filled with emotion. He told Alana the truth about his real name, his past, and how her daughter had played a role in his life being torn apart. He explained how Alica had betrayed him, leading him into the hands of villains who had used him. He revealed the existence of Harley as proof of the connection between them.
As he shared the story of his past, Alana listened intently, her eyes wide with a mixture of shock, disbelief, and sympathy. Her emotions swirled, and tears welled up in her eyes.
Alana couldn't believe what she was hearing. The revelation shook the foundation of her understanding of Alex, but she held onto her promise to listen without interruption. Her mind raced, trying to process the truth that was unfolding before her.
As Alex finished recounting his story, a heavy silence hung in the air. Alana wiped away her tears, her voice trembling as she found the words to respond.
"I... I don't know what to say, Vinc... Alex," Alana began, her voice filled with a mix of emotions. "This is a lot to take in, to process. I had no idea... And Alica, being involved in all of this, it's... overwhelming."
Alana's heart pounded in her chest as she absorbed Alex's words, his revelation unraveling a complex web of emotions within her. She struggled to process the truth, the weight of the information threatening to consume her. She reached for Alex's hand, seeking solace and connection in that moment.
"I... I don't know what to say," Alana finally spoke, her voice trembling with a mix of vulnerability and confusion. "This is a lot to take in, Alex. I had no idea... about any of this.
Alana nodded a renewed sense of purpose in her eyes. She held onto Alex's hand tightly, finding comfort and strength in their connection.
"We'll find the answers we seek, Alex," Alana said, her voice filled with determination. "And no matter what happens, know that I trust you and that I'm grateful for your honesty."
...
Alana left for her hotel. She was shaken up after learning the truth. It was a lot to digest, especially after knowing the fact that whatever she and her daughter had achieved and have today is made from betryal and lies. Each step she took seemed to be as heavy as if she had been carrying a massive weight on her shoulders.
Alex sat there on the shore, looking at the moon as it casted a gentle glow over the shore, illuminating the darkness around him.
And so, as the waves continued to crash against the shore, Alex felt a huge burden lifted from his shoulders.
Did he do the right thing revealing everything to Alana this fast? Well, only time will tell... He will soon know, if Alana can be trusted or not. Because no matter what she does or if she tries to run away, she won't be able to escape his grasp... After all, he has planted his red aura into her body. And with a flick of his finger he can kill her.
