7 -Leave Me Alone!
Alex's POV;
I told my friends about what happened this morning at the fashion house, with a mannerless manager, who threw his shame, under the rug, and tried to get close to me.
Sia saw how upset I was, and the girls decided to cheer me up, by setting up a club night for us.
It's late at night, and we all arrive at the club, in two different cars. I don't mind having a few shots while dancing my burdens away. I've had a lot on my mind lately, and I need to loosen up.
I chose to divorce Damon, to focus on my career, and wax stronger in it, however, it's been proving difficult. When I was married to him, he was a distraction, and even now that our divorce is almost as good as done, he still is a distraction.
Sia, I, and the girls march into the club which is shaking with the vibration from the massive speakers. After being checked, I pay for us to get into the VIP section, and after taking our sits, a waiter comes to take our order.
I order a

Love Again 9 -The Nerve Of That Brat!!
Alex's POV; I watch her house closely from my vehicle which I parked not too far from it. The duplex is a moderate apartment. Not looking bad, but also not screaming class. If you ask me, I'd rate its class a five out of ten. A taxi pulls up before the building, and the blonde comes down from the vehicle. "Thank you. "She says to the driver, and I glare at her. Aww, good manners. If only her freaking manners taught her to stay away from married men. I come down from my car, lock it, and begin to march to the blonde across the street who has her back turned to me, as she's trying to open her house's door. "Hello, twerp. "I greet, and she jumps a bit in fright. "What the... "She begins as she turns, but stops when she sees me. I give her a tight smile and get straight to business. "I was told you're overstepping your boundaries, and it's beginning to

"She mutters before I hang up. She most likely knows I'm going to murder whoever dared to bash my baby.I get down from my car. Boiling over with annoyance, and rush to the ash vehicle, with tinted glasses behind me."Hello, get out here, are you blind!? You just bashed my car! "I scream after knocking on the rolled-up glass, but the person doesn't respond."Get out here now, or I'm calling the cops! "I scream, and I hear a click from inside. The door finally opens, and I step aside, to give the person room to step out.A male comes out, and I glare at him in anger."Look what you did, were your eyes in your butt hole when you were driving!?

Love Again 11 -She's Alright
Alex's POV; it's been quite fun working with Amos and catching up on old times. His fashion house is magnificent, and my colleagues are out of this world awesome. From experience to behavior. Right now, I'm in my car with Mrs. Hudson, on our way to the hospital, for her monthly check-up. We used to do this when Damon and I were still together, and even now that we're so close to officially being over, she insisted that we keep the tradition, as one of our mother, daughter moments. "God's not dead! He's surely alive, he's living on the inside, roaring like a lion!! "She sings energetically along with the song playing from the radio, and I laugh at her energy. "You know this song? "I question, and she laughs. "Know it? I love it! "She exclaims, and I laugh louder. "I'm getting older doesn't mean my sense of music has to drop. "She replies, dancing to the music. "True. " I reply, and my phone begins to buzz. I pick it up and see i
Love Again 12 -You Don't Love Me?
Alex's POV; Damon and I make it into the elevator, and we stand in silence as he presses the button that leads to the first floor. "Thank you for calling me. "He suddenly says, and I inhale deeply before looking down at my nails. "No need to thank me. She's your mom. "I reply, and silence once again fills the elevator. "Why are you doing this? "He suddenly questions and my heart vibrates in fear. I had been dreading him asking this question. I didn't want him to. What do I tell him? How do I explain to him why I want our three years old marriage to end? "Say something, Alex. I know you still love me, so why are we putting ourselves through this? Let's end all this and come back together. Be the happy couple we were, and forget all of this ever happened. "He says, and with each word that leaves his mouth, my lungs threaten to fail. He takes a step towards me, and I quickly recline. "I don't love you, Damon. What
Love Again 13 - I'd Leave You
Alex's POV; It's the second day after mother's accident. I'm in my living room, working on my newest piece. it's not perfect, as a lot is on my mind, but it's manageable, and I'm almost done. Damon was so close to getting under my skin. I've been made to understand that a woman is more powerful, and has more freedom when she doesn't have the responsibility of family to carry and is single. I can't lie to myself. I still love Damon. I've tried to stop myself, but I can't. I want to make it big and to do that, I need to divert all my energy into my career. I could have asked that we go on a break or something, but only God knows how long it will take me to attain the heights of success I desire, and it will be unfair of me to keep him waiting that long. I just can't do it. I want to be free. I love Damon, but I want to be free. I didn't think about this before getting married, but now that I'm married, and the idea has come, why not go with it.
Love Again 14 -A Date, huh?
Alex's POV; "You know, I really think Amos likes you. "Sia says before picking up a red dress and glaring at it scrutinizingly under the bright, white bulbs far above us. "Excuse you? "I question her with raised brows, and a hand on my waist. She takes a look up at me, and back at the dress, before quickly looking back up at me. "What? I know he does. I just don't know if you're being intentionally blind or have become some naive plain Jane. "She replies before dropping the dress back on the pile. "Come on, Sia. Amos is just a friend. He's been since college. "I note. "Yeah, that explains all the sudden kisses on the hands and cheeks, red roses, and trail of every secret admirer thing he ever did back in high school, and up till now. "She replies as we move to a rail of clothes. "He... That could have been his way of being nice. "I reply. Remembering every cute thing Amos has done since our college days. "Yeah, same as that one
Love Again 15 - Alex?
I get to the venue Amos's driver brought me to. The Raven's Suit. It's exquisite and has an amazing glow at night. Coming to this place has been part of the to-do list at the back of my mind, but I just keep forgetting or never had time to come. Amos was going to give me a surprise, but I forced the name of the venue out of him, and partially, I'm not happy I did. If I didn't know I was coming here, I won't have told Sia, and she won't have dressed me up like someone going to some fancy gala. I'm in a flowing black dress that shows a lot of skin. It's a low-back dress that is open in such a way my whole back is out, and the coverage begins from the top of my bottom and flows down till my feet are covered. Then it has a slit in front, that starts from my right thigh, all the way down. I'm in gold heels and am with a golden purse. The sleeves of this dress are long though. As if compensating for the missing covering at my back. I thank G
