Chapter 58: Doppelganger

“Your flight was not until tomorrow. I was hoping we could have a proper talk before you left,” Alexander said while closing in on Savannah.

“How- how did you even find my place? And you flew all the way here?” Savannah asked in bewilderment

Giving his head a light scratch, Alexander replied, “Well, you have your address on the contract, and this residential building is rather easy to find.”

Savannah was rendered speechless. Her mouth remained parted for seconds before she found the words to say, “You came all the way here to talk? A phone call would have done it.” “Except, you don’t answer my calls,” Alexander pointed out. “It’s obvious that you are avoiding me. You left without even saying goodbye! So, I came here to have that proper talk with you. Besides, consider this a pit stop for the Wimbledon Championships.”

“You are overthinking it,” Savannah denied while she peered at her door as if planning her escape. “I’m drained, Alex. You did not have to come here for a talk. We would have seen each other in London.”

“That is if you would talk to me,” Alexander repeated.

The two went on, back and forth. Alexander asserted on his observations, while Savannah denied everything. Finally, after feeling the exhaustion taking a toll on her, Savannah said, ” Okay, fine! Fine! I am avoiding you? Are you happy now?” “Why?” Alexander asked. “I thought we had talked it out.”

“Why? Why does it matter to you, Alex?” She shot back.

“It matters to me because I was hoping we could.” He stopped himself, swallowing his whole thoughts down his throat. Alexander wanted to say that he wanted to get close to her again, but a cautious reply left his mouth, saying, “I wanted to genuinely become friends with you again. I sincerely hoped we were past that stage of hating each other.” “And for the record, I did not really hate you. I just did not like how you treated me, even if I knew I deserved it,” he admitted.

“You want to know the truth?” Savannah raised her voice, saying, “I am still upset with you! Even if you apologized, it was still not enough to cover how I felt betrayed in the past. Then you called what happened to us a fling? I -“.

“Isn’t that what you said to Hannah? She told me once that you mistakenly had a fling with me in the past,” Alexander revealed. “She said it was the biggest mistake of your life!”
