"What do you want, Sansa?" Alex asked as he gently stroked my head, I glanced at Daddy who was standing next to me and Daddy just holding a smile.
For Daddy, Alex's treatment was just a regular form of attention to me, but I know Alex's attention was more than that.
"I'll tell you later" I replied.
We're at the airport, escorting Alex to New York. "Well, I go first" said Alex, I looked at her sadly, though it was not the first time we had parted, but now I feel really sad and feel hard to take it off.
"Telphon us when you get there," Daddy said as he patted Alex on the shoulder and Alex simply smiled as he nodded.
Daddy grabbed my shoulders and took me away, occasionally turning to Alex who waved at me with a smile.
When I got to the parking lot, I told Daddy that I was going to see Alex for a bit. "You what? He must've come in" Daddy said then he glanced at his watch. "We're too late, Sweety."
"Just a second, Dad." I begged him. "I just wanted to tell her something, I was scared until she forgot," I whined.
"Well," Daddy replied at last and I ran after Alex.
I'm circling my eyes, looking for Alex and I hope he hasn't come in yet.
"ALEX...!" Shouting as I looked at Alex among the crowd, Alex turned his head and I ran towards him.
I fluttered into Alex's arms, I tiptoed and immediately pursed his lips. Alex looked surprised, I could feel his body stiffening but a moment later Alex immediately let go of his bag and he hugged me with one hand while the other he used to press my nape, to deepen our kiss.
Alex returned my kisses so intensely and demandingly, our heads moving right and left looking for a comforting point in our continued kiss.
After feeling out of breath, I hit Alex in the chest and forced him to let go of his kiss. Alex put his forehead on my forehead, our gazes met, our breaths hunted and our lips wet.
"I'll miss you so much" I said before his lips, Alex gently dipping my lips.
"I'll miss you too, Baby girl" he said in a hoarse voice.
"When you get home, let's talk to Daddy, let's talk" I asked and Alex nodded with a smile.
"We'll talk, baby girl. Moreover, you've been 20 years," said Alex.
"You promise? You wouldn't be afraid of Daddy, would you?" I asked while chuckling.
"Of course I'm afraid, but I'll handle it" said Alex, who also chuckled, cupping my cheek and then peeping my forehead gently and long enough, I closed my eyes, enjoying the warmth of my beloved's kiss that feels right down to the recesses of my heart.
"I love you, Baby girl."

I leaned my head and my gaze stared out of the car, while Daddy focused on driving and occasionally he invited me to chat. But right now, I'm not talking, there's a lot I think about and it makes my head hurt.
"What's wrong? Are you sad that Uncle Alex is gone?" Daddy asked as he rubbed my head, I immediately leaned my head against Daddy's arm spoiled.
"Daddy, I'm scared" I whispered in a trembling voice.
"Don't be afraid, honey. Daddy's here," said Daddy. "But Daddy hope, you tell Alex right away, because he loves you as much as he loves his own daughter. He must want to know how you are, Sweety," said Daddy.
I can only be silent, I want to tell Alex the truth because Alex not only considers me his daughter, but I am his lover. But I'm not ready. I'm afraid he's sad, I can't bear it.
Daddy stopped the car at the hospital and then he took me out of the car.
I looked up, staring at the biggest hospital in London with anxious feelings.
"Oh, don't be afraid. You'll be fine" Daddy said, calming me down.
We went to see Dr. Chloe who greeted me and Daddy warmly. "Hello, Sansa. How you doing?" Hello Doctor Chloe very sweetly.
"I feel very good, Doctor," I replied.
"Yeah, I can see that in your smile" said Doctor Chloe who made me laugh. "Wheel to do the checkup, honey?" I nodded with a small smile. "I'm sure the results will be good, you're good at taking care of your health."
"I'm trying to look after her really well, Doc. Because I don't want to leave Daddy like Mom did" I said sadly.
"You're stronger than your mother, honey. You won't leave anyone until you're old, your hair is bleached and your skin is wrinkled." again I chuckle and assure you that do'a.
My mother had coronary heart disease, not because she didn't live a healthy life but this is hereditary.
And now, this disease is being passed down to me, which scares me every day. I'm afraid of being separated from Daddy, from Alex, from my friends, I'm not ready to go.
One year ago, I had a shortness of breath that knocked me unconscious, and when Daddy took me to the Doctor. The doctor diagnosed me with an illness like my mother, which was a very heavy blow to Daddy, and so was it for me. But we strengthen each other and try together to get through this problem.
I wanted to tell Alex, but I wasn't ready to see him sad.
