Chapter 2 Chap

"Alex my boy, your father is dead"she cried profusely "he took his last breath early hours of the day" she said. Alex's phone falls from his hand shakingly and he staggered back, holding unto his throbbing head.

"Gawd! why?why now" he groaned painfully and sat on the bed "Jace get me my drugs!" he roared already getting agitated but it was too late as he began scattering the entire room speaking incoherent words, slowly loosing his mind.

Jace rushes back to see alex in this state,gets his injection and inject the fluid into his body quickly before he gets worse. Alex calms down after a while " I didn't do it,I didn't kill them" he said repeatedly in tears and falls asleep.

Jace sighs, "I hope you get better soon bro,I can't bare to see you in so much pain"he said sadly. He helps Alex to lie properly on the bed and leaves the room.

After a while Alex woke up and called for him. Jace walks into the room "Dad is dead,we have to go back to LA for the funeral and maybe stay back this time" he sighs heavily.

Jace understood and did not decline, they have been in Toronto for 5years now, they only go to los Angeles for important meetings because of his business there. "Alright then I will speak with the pilot to know when we would be able to leave" Jace replied professionally, And turned to leave.

"Jace did I hurt you?" Alex asked softly. "Hearing father's death I felt all that pain rushing in again,those couples that died because of me" His voice came out croaked putting his hands in his black hair.

"No you didn't am fine, you don't have to get worked up you weren't in your right senses at that time and we know that, what happened years ago wasn't your fault" Jace reassured patting his back.

"Now just relax man,I will get someone to bring your dinner" he said and left the room. Alex sighed and sat on one of the sofa,he couldn't have asked for a better friend and brother like Jace, he has been with him since their childhood, faced every obstacles together more reason why he made him his personal assistant.

Alex had his dinner and thought about how life was going to be, staying in los Angeles, where all his problems began.

Los Angeles USA

Debbie's Apartment

"Jeez am so tired,today was so busy and we made a lot of sales today" Debbie grinned. She turned to Kate " you are gonna make dinner kate, you just sat down all day reading your books" she said looking irritated."

"C'mon sis am also tired and I sold some paintings you know" Kate pouted with her arms folded. "Good thing I got pizza on our way here" Zara interjected munching on a slice.

"I'm gonna take my bath first" debbie said and runs into her room. Kate said the same thing and left, both came back after awhile and sat down to eat the pizza with a glass of yogurt.

"Aren't you modeling? you are gonna get fat you know" Kate said to Zara. Debbie looks at them and gave out a short laugh. "You don't have to worry I will exercise and lose those excess fat" Zara replied going through her phone and she screams.

Debbie and Kate looked at her with questioning looks " Mr Jefferson is dead, it's all over the internet I can't believe this, I heard rumours about him having brain cancer" Zara said with wide eyes shaking her head.

"Mr Jefferson? Alexander Jefferson's dad?" Kate asked checking her phone and truly the news was flying fast "that is my all time favourite celebrity,I could only imagine how he would be feeling right now" she added feeling sad.

Confused Debbie could only stare at them and glanced at the pictures. "Come on guys don't get sad,I guess it was just his time"she mutters and they sighed " Let's go watch a movie before going to bed"she said and they moved to the sitting room.

Debbie turns on the TV and they watched a comedy show and everywhere turned lively. After an hour they left to their rooms, Zara sleeps in Debbie's room whenever she comes for a sleepover. "Debs you are going to be okay, it just few hours till dawn" Debbie talks to herself.

Zara lays on the bed looking at the nervous Debbie who just stands by the corner " hey b,u are thinking too much u haven't had an episode for awhile now, just the nightmares and am here so you will be fine okay" Zara said.

Debbie sighs heavily "okay let's just sleep"and she gets on the bed with the blanket on her body.

In the middle of the night, Zara wakes up to the vibration of the bed,looking to her side sees Debbie shaking vigorously beads of sweat on her forehead "debbie!! wake up,can you hear me" zara screams.

But there was no answer, suddenly Debbie stops shaking "Debs please wake up,am scared" Zara said tearfully and she touches her but she wasn't moving nor breathing.

Kate barges into the room "what happened?" she asked. "I don't know Debbie isn't moving" Zara said

"What!!!."
