"I'm so sorry mum, we couldn't just help it. Please mum, dad, please forgive us." Alexia begged on her
knees, her brother nowhere to be found.
"Did you just say forgive, did you say forgive Alexia. I just caught you and your brother having s*x. Oh
my God, where did I go wrong as your mother. I just can't believe the fact that you and your brother,
could do something as formidable as this." Mrs Greg runs her hands through her hair, sitting on the
couch, crying her heart out.
"Mum, I can assure you, that we never really meant for this to happen and when it did happen, it was
too late to do anything. I'm so sorry mum." Alexia cried out, tears streaming down her eyes.
"STOP SAYING SORRY, ALEXIA!! STOP IT!!." Mrs Greg screamed like a crazed woman, her voice
really loud.
"Mum I swear, we didn't mean to do what we did. Once we already crossed the line, we couldn't cross it
back again."
"What did you think, that you involve yourself in a formidable act with your brother and you will be able
to put a stop to it. I don't just get it, if you know you couldn't resist your brother, then why didn't you
come to me, why didn't you tell me. I would have helped Alexia, I would have to e everything in my
power to help. You don't know the gravity of what you and your brother has done, this isn't just a little
offence. This is huge, this is big, this a taboo Alexia, a taboo." Mrs Greg exclaims.
"Calm down honey, calm down." Mr Greg cajoled, rubbing his back softly.
"Calm down, are you asking me to calm down. Our children just committed incest, they committed
incest, Steve. This is a big taboo, and you are asking me to calm down. How am I supposed to do that,
knowing have been nothing but a bad mother." Mrs Greg cried out, wiping the tears that seems to refill
by each passing seconds.
"That is not true, Anna. You're a good wife and you are also a good mother. You can't hold yourself
responsible for the mistake of the kids. You are a good mother, and you should never doubt that." Mr
Greg said, placing a comforting hand on his wife shoulder.
"Dad is right mum, you are great mother. This is all, I and Aaron faults, you have nothing to do with this
mum. This is our mistake and I'm so sorry." Alexia pleads trying to touch her mum.
"Don't! Don't touch me, Alexia. You and your brother disgust me, I regret giving birth to the both of you.
You both disgust me!! GET OUT OF MY PRESENCE, RIGHT THIS MINUTE!!." Mrs Greg growled, her
eyes bloodshot.
Mr Greg sighed, then said, "Calm down Ana. Alexia I think it's best if you leave, your mum isn't happy
with the situation right now and I'm not going to lie to you, I am also not happy with the situation. I am
disappointed, at you and your brother. Go to your room Alexia tommorow, I an your mum would come
to a decision. We are going to see how we can salvaged this whole situation, goodnight Alexia."
Alexia stared at both her parents, a tear runs down her eyes, she nods her head then walked out of the
room.

"Hey." Alexia greets softly, standing next to her brother.
Aaron turned around to stare at his sister, "hey." He replied back.
"I, checked your room earlier, and I didn't see you there. Knowing you so much, I knew you will be
here." Alexia states, Aaron only hummed back a reply, staring at the calm the beautiful white lilies.
The both of them, stood right there in silence, each of them buried in their own thoughts. The two of
them wondered what the future holds for them, what would become of their relationship, would one of
them have to travel away, what would become of them?.
"You know, I've always knew this day would come. The day where we will get caught by our parents,
the day when our secrets will be out in the open. But I just never knew, that day would come so quick.
And that was why I wanted to avoid it." Aaron utters, having a faraway look in his eyes.
"Well... I also never thought we would get caught this way. But what can I say, nothing is hiding under
sun for too long. Our secrets is out in the open, and it's left for us to own up to it. I will be going back
inside now, to catch some sleep. Father said he would decide out fate, tommorow morning." She stood
on her toes, and pecked him lightly on his cheeks, then walked away, leaving Aaron staring at the sea,
deep in his own thoughts.
************
Alexia laid restlessly on her bed, she couldn't sleep.. she kept wondering what tommorow would hold
for both her and her brother. She wondered what decision her father would come to. She sighs, sitting
up. She decided to go check on her brother.
"Aaron, are you asleep...." She stopped in her tracks, staring down her brother's body that's currently
laying on the floor, in a pool of blood, a knife struck inside his stomach.
"No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. Aaron, what have you done. What the f!ck have you done, no this can't
be happening." Alexia cried out frightened, kneeling down next to her brother. She got back up
Immediately, rushed over to her parent's room and informed them of the new development.
**********
The family of Greg, could be seen pacing around the waiting room anxiously, each praying for Aaron to
survive.
"This is all my fault, maybe if I had handled this more calmly, Aaron will not be at the hospital right now.
He would be alive. I'm a bad mother, I'm the worst mother ever." Mrs Greg cried out, "Listen to me love,
you are not the worst mother. You reacted the same way, any lady in your shoes would do. Don't blame
yourself for this, do not do that. Right now, all we should be doing is pray that Aaron survives this." Mr
Greg said softly to her, wrapping his arms around her, giving her all the comfort she needs.
Alexia sat down on the waiting room bench, tears rolling down her eyes, her fingers entwined together
tightly. What would become of her, if Aaron dies. She has already fall in love with him, she has fallen
deeply for her brother and if he dies, she might not be able to live on.
A doctor walked out of the room, Aaron is being treated and they all rushed towards him, "Doctor,
doctor, how is my son. Please tell me he is okay, can I see him." Mrs Greg said, cleaning her tears with
the back of her hand.
"No, no, you can't see him now. Mr Greg, your son bled a lot before he was brought to this hospital,
and right now his in a critical condition. He would have to be giving blood." The doctor informs them.
"Well, that is no problem. I'm his father, I will give him the blood." Mr Greg said, unblinking.
"Okay, that's good. A nurse would come and take a little bit of your blood for testing, after that you are Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.
free to give him the blood." The doctor said, and then he walked back into the room. After a few
minutes, another nurse came out and draw out some of Mr Greg blood for testing.
The couple and their daughter, sat down and waited anxiously for the doctor, after some minutes the
doctor came out if the room, "I'm sorry to inform you Mr Greg, but we can't give your blood to your son."
"But why, you said he needed blood, my husband here is going to give him his blood, so what is
wrong?." Mrs Greg asked, getting hysterical.
"It's not about that ma'am, you see we can't give your son, your husband blood because....."
