My Family's Secret

The truth

I also realized.

"Alexa, are you all right?!"

"Mommy, is anyone sick?"

Jessica and Bella looked at me with worried faces. I'm back in the real world. What I saw was a forgotten memory of the past.

"Alexa, say something" urged Jessica.

"Jessica, please book a plane ticket to Italy for me" I said.

Jessica scrunched her forehead. "For what?"

"I have to see Alvaro's grandfather and brother now" I replied.

"Grandfather and brother Alvaro have come home" he replied.

I turned to Jessica. "Home home?"

Jessica nodded. "Yes, Brother Alvaro called me earlier and asked where you were."

"What do you need to answer?" my many.

"We're playing in the mall with Bella" Jessica replied.

I let out a sigh of relief. "Thank you, Jessica."

"Mommy, mommy all right?" ask Bella.

I turned towards Bella and stroked her head. "Yes, mommy's fine. Now we go home, okay?"

Bella nodded.

"Come, I'll take you home" Jessica said.

"No need, Jessica. Me and Bella are gonna take a cab. You go back to the office" I refused.

"After the incident you thought I'd let you go home by yourself? Of course not. I'll take you home, no rejection, '" he insisted.

"alright. Thank you and sorry to trouble you," I replied.

"Not to bother with me" Jessica replied.

***POV AUTHOR***

Arriving at home. Alexa and Bella break into the house and Jessica follows behind.

Someone ran towards Alexa and hugged her. "Oh my gosh, I really miss you, my little princess."

"Bella here baby," Grandma ordered. Bella went to Grandma's side.

"How are you doing here, Alexa?" ask grandpa.

"Hey what's with your forehead?" ask Alvaro who noticed Alexa's forehead on the bandage.

Allard went to Alexa and checked. "What's this about? Why is your forehead hurt?"

Alexa shook Allard's hand and stepped back to get away from the others. Grandpa, Alvaro, and Allard were confused by his attitude.

"What actually happened? You said you were playing at the mall. Why is Alexa getting hurt like this?" ask Alvaro to Jessica.

Jessica was confused as to what to answer.

"Grandfather," call Alexa.

"Yes, Alexa? Tell Grandpa why are you getting hurt like this?" ask grandpa.

"Why does grandpa care about my wounds?" ask Alexa.

Hearing Alexa's question, grandfather scrunched his forehead. "Why are you asking like that? Of course because Grandpa loves you, Grandpa doesn't want you to get hurt."

"For what does Grandpa love me?" my many.

Everyone is getting confused with Alexa's attitude, even Jessica is confused.

"Alexa, what's wrong with you?" ask Jessica.

Alexa's tears just shed. Everyone was shocked to see him suddenly crying.

"What's wrong with you, baby?" ask Allard who walked over to Alexa.

"No one approaches me!" alexa command.

Allard stopped his steps.

"I'm confused as to how to say it" muttered Alexa.

"saying? Say what, Alexa?" ask Alvaro.

"Grandfather, I'm not your real family, am I?" ask Alexa for grandpa.

Grandpa seemed very surprised by Alexa's question, but he tried to act ordinary. "What did you say that was? Of course you are our real family."

Alexa laughs. "Hahaha I already know everything grandpa, so grandpa doesn't have to cover anything anymore."

"What empty tooth did you really say?!" ask grandpa angry.

"Why is grandpa angry? Alexa just wants to get everything done here. When everyone is gathering," Alexa said calmly.

If only you knew how scared Jessica and Alvaro were right now. They fear that Alexa knows the truth but they try to stay positive.

"Alexa, you must be tired. I'll take you to the room, okay?" persuade Jessica.

Alexa shakes. "No, Jessica. There's something I need to talk to grandfather, brother Alvaro, Allard, and you."

Bella's grandmother, who felt that this was Alexa's family business, decided to avoid any misunderstandings.

"Grandma and Bella permission to go to the room yes," said grandma.

"Grandmother need not avoid. There's something Alexa wants to say to grandma, too" Alexa said.

"A-alexa what exactly do you want to say?" ask Alvaro.

"I'm not Harrison's family. I am the only daughter of the Smiths, an enemy of the Harrison family" Alexa said.

As if struck by lightning, the fear felt by Jessica and Alvaro became a reality. Alexa knew it, but where did she know it? They try to be calm.

Alexa looked at her older brother. "Why? Brother wants to kill that guy and remove his tracks? Free sis. I know because the memories of my past have returned completely."

"What exactly does all this mean?" ask Allard who still does not understand.

"Allard, you know your parents died in a plane crash, right?" ask Alexa.

Allard was shocked to hear that. "How did you know my parents died in a plane crash? I never told you that."

"That's wrong. Your parents died not because of a plane crash but because of my parents" Alexa continued regardless of Allard's questions.

"Whatchu mean? Om Oliver and Aunt Claudia couldn't have killed my parents" Allard said.

"You didn't hear what I said at the beginning? I'm not Harrison's family, Allard. The Harrison family adopted me and raised me like their own real family." Before continuing her words, Alexa sighed. "I was confused how they could still be nice to me when I was the cause of the death of their loved ones."

"Alexa, that's not true" said grandfather.

"What's? What else would Grandpa lie like? Why didn't grandfather kill me when he didn't love me?! Why did you have to miss my mother's letter and become dear to me?" ask Alexa.

"WHAT IS ALL THIS NONSENSE?!" shouted Allard.

"You still don't understand Allard?! I'm a murderous child! I'm the cause of your parents and Alvaro's parents' death! They tried desperately to get me out of that hell but they lost their lives while saving me. Allard, that scar on your back was also caused by my biological father. We've known each other since childhood. You promised to get me out of there" Alexa explained.

Suddenly Allard's past memories returned. Allard also began to recall what had happened to him long ago. Allard held his head that felt so painful that it felt like it wanted to break it.

"Do you remember now? We shouldn't have known each other as kids, Allard. So you won't suffer because of me" Alexa said slowly.

Instead of hating Alexa, Allard ran up to her and hugged her. "No, Alexa. I never regret meeting you. I've never regretted knowing you from childhood."

"Sway from me, Allard! You should hate me!" alexa said while pushing Allard.

"No! I will never hate you!" allard.

Beyond the expectations of Jessica and Alvaro, it turns out that Allard does not hate Alexa even though he knows the truth. Even Allard still loved and loved him.

"We won't hate you. What if you were the son of the Smith family? Right now you're the Harrison family legally" Alvaro said.

With a blank look, Alexa asked Alvaro. "Why brother? Why is my sister always so nice to me?! I'm the reason your parents died."

Alvaro. "No, Alexa. Our parents didn't die because of you."

"Yes, Alexa. Om and aunt love you, that's why they accept whatever the consequences are" Jessica said.

"NO! WHY DON'T YOU GUYS UNDERSTAND?!" scream Alexa.

"Calm down, Alexa. Don't be like this" said Allard.

"Take me off, Allard!" Alexa is rebelling.

Bella who was afraid to see Allard and Alexa quarrel was immediately ran to Alexa and hugged her. "Mommy, don't be like this. Bella's scared."

Suddenly, Alexa pushes Bella. Luckily Allard's reflexes were so good that Allard could catch Bella before Bella fell.

"What are you doing Alexa?!" allard asked in anger.

"I'm not your mom!" snatch Alexa to Bella.

"Mommy? What did mommy say? Mommy is mommy Bella. Sorry if Bella was always naughty, Bella will not be naughty anymore but mommy do not talk like that" said Bella who began to cry.

Allard held Bella. "Don't cry, Bella."

"Mommy, sorry Bella," Bella said.

"Stop calling me mommy!" alexa command.

Bella's crying got louder.

"Alexa, what exactly is going on with you?!" ask Allard.

"From the beginning Bella was not my son" replied Alexa.

"We agreed to adopt it and you agreed to it and you're even happy about it" Allard said.

"That was. When I don't know the truth" replied Alexa.

"Know what else? What other facts are you going to talk about this time?" Allard was getting fed up with this. Whatever Alexa was talking about in the end would not make her hate the girl.

Alexa turned her eyes. "grandmother."

"Yes Alexa?" ask grandma.

"Grandma has a daughter named Nara, right?" tanyakanya.

Grandma was surprised by Alexa's question. "How do you know?"

"Nara was Alexa-level sister on campus but Nara died by suicide. Do you know why Nara committed suicide? It's Alexa, Grandma. Because of Alexa, Nara committed suicide" Alexa replied.

"Grandmother doesn't understand, Alexa," replied grandma.

"Bella is the son of Nara and Devan. Devan is not willing to take responsibility and leaves Nara because Devan likes Alexa and continues to pursue Alexa. Alexa never rejects him firmly even though Alexa knows that Nara loves Devan. That's why Nara chose to give up after giving birth to Bella," explained Alexa.

Grandma looked very surprised to hear that. He never knew why his daughter died. He only knew that his daughter had left him her.

"Hahaha now Alexa knows why Bella doesn't like Devan so much. Instinct runs. He knows that Devan is an asshole but on the one hand only Devan is a doctor who matches Bella besides Alexa because Bella's instincts know that Devan is her real father," Alexa said with a laugh.

"NO! DOCTOR DEVAN ISN'T BELLA'S FATHER!" scream Bella.

Yeah Bella heard it all. He was old enough to understand what Alexa was talking about.

"That's actually Bella. You have to accept that Devan is your real father. Allard and I are not your parents" Alexa said.

"No. Bella's parents are just daddy Allard and mommy Alexa!" Bella hugged Allard tightly as if she did not want her daddy to stay away from her like her mommy.

"Why do you still want me when I'm your real mother's killer, Bella?" ask Alexa.

"Bella was born without knowing what a mother is. Bella only knows grandma but when Bella meets mommy, Bella so know what is mother and Bella can feel the love of a mother from mommy. Plus when Bella meets daddy. Daddy makes Bella feel safe every time. You two have made Bella feel the love of the whole old man. Mommy, Bella, please don't be like this? Bella just wants you two. Bella doesn't care about Bella's biological parents" explains Bella.

"Thank you for your blessing, grandma knows why Nara died but Alexa, grandma never hated you even though you said that you were the cause of Nara's death. It's not your fault that Nara chose to commit suicide" Grandma said.

"Grandmother, if Alexa rejects Devan firmly then it might be sa—"

"That's beyond your power. Even though you have rejected Devan firmly but it is not certain that Devan will give up, right? Grandma's been telling Nara away for a long time, son. Therefore also forgive your past, "cut grandma.

Alexa kept crying. No one dared to come closer than Bella. Bella continues to hug Alexa until Alexa falls asleep due to fatigue.
