Chapter 100 - DIANDRA WAS HAPPY

Diandra hears Alex saying, "When he sleeps, honey, he reminds me so much of you, and that used to give me strength and courage every day to hold on.

It was when I heard the radio broadcast about the two plants, Melissa and I put the pieces together, but school was already close.

And you never open your door when I came knocking, which was every day? I visited every Church around this district and never see you."

Maria recalled how she used to make excuse for her, every Sunday morning. 'So, he could have seen us in Church, and not know we were her friends?

Oh, she was very smart hiding from him, but then from what I already heard, she is still willing to make the extra sacrifice for Sam.'

When Alex holds her hand saying to her, "Honey, my secretary was so angry with me, but she stood with me after my apology.

I hope you know, you can hide very well, and you also hid my son away from me for three years. But as you said, he belong to Sam and Maria and you are right. I am not even angry with you for saying that.

But this baby you are carrying now is mine, now seeing that it has a young Prince, you are no longer a Princess, but my Queen.

So will you return to my Palace with the young Prince please? I must also say thanks to your two wonderful friends, I am able to meet you once again.

When I heard that you were unwell from my doctor, I became very worried."

"Alex, I did not visit your doctor?"

"I know that, but he saw you at the hospital and detect your pregnancy, and he give me a call.

Dr. Ferguson was very concern about you, and honey I know we have a lot of things to learn about each other, but along the way we will learn."

Diandra said softly, "I am sorry I kept him away from you, but I thought you might think I was unfaithful, so I never bothered.

When Maria holds her hand to stand up, saying to her, "Now young lady, can you tell me why you had me fretting up myself, when all along you had this beautiful dress?".

Responding to her remarks, Alex said, "It's not her fault, I only got it this afternoon."

"Alex, did you bought this dress for Dee?"

"Yes, I did Ma'am."

"Well, isn't that wonderful, from now on, I don't have to worry about her clothes, I know you will do an excellent job."

"Thank you, Ma'am."

"Now let me meet our guest and you two go and enjoy yourself. Pushing Sam as her interact with his colleagues, Maria went and check on her guest that was eating.

Seeing Ken and Beverly dancing knowing she had spill the bean about Joash is Dee son. 'He must be really angry with us for not revealing that to him?'

Maria look for Diandra knowing she was tired, her face looks a bit pale earlier when she and Sam was speaking especially when he said Alex was here.'

Noticing them between the others dancing, 'I am happy now, she was pretty tense which was frightful, but now they seem to be having a serious discussion.

As Alex dance holding her close to him, saying, "Honey, you sure had me fooled."

Hearing her laugh, "Did you give me a choice? I wanted to know if my illiteracy was still a problem for you."

"You are right, but from the moment I saw you when you open your door for me, it never mattered to me any longer.

You see I fell head over heel in love with you all over again." Alex strokes her face; "I miss you so much, and wanted to be with you especially when I knew you wasn't well."

Hearing her saying, "Do, you know, God do have a strange way of working out situations?"

Smilingly she closed her eyes, recalling the word the white hair elderly man from the train said to her. 'He is right he seems to understand how I was feeling."

When Alex said, "Honey are you with me?"

"Not exactly, I was just thinking that so much has happen during these few months, but through it all, I see the Lord working and He heard my prayer."

"Yes, I can truly say, He did, and look at your brother he seems very happy now."

"He deserves some happiness, but from Ken expression. I know he have so many questions."

"Sweetheart, not only Ken, but we will deal with those questions when confronted?" Noticing Ken looking at us, wondering what he must be thinking.

'I know Diandra hid so many things from them, but his reaction earlier when Maria announce that Joash is her son, he seems very hurt. If I told her that she might become worried and stress herself.'

"Thanks," Alex, looks at her seeing she looking around, then the smile came. Wondering who she was looking for? Then the little hand came and grab his legs.

Bending down Alex pick him up, asking him, "Do you want to dance with us?" Seeing the nod, Alex rests his left hand on Diandra shoulder, seeing Joash rest his right hand on her left shoulder, just as how Alex did.

Feeling this joy, Diandra hug the both of them being so overwhelm with happiness. Thinking, 'The day has finally come that he got his dad, knowing he so wanted a father.'

When the music stop as so many others leave to go and eat. Alex take Joash to get a snack

After circulating among the guest, overhearing Sam laughing with his friends.

Diandra notices Alex speaking with Margret and Natalia. Ken and Beverly were speaking with a group of people about the radio station, and the work he was doing.

Feeling the strain on her back for the length of time she has been on her feet.

Diandra look around to see where Maria was to tell her she was going to her room, but Maria was with some of Sam friends. Slipping away hoping no one stop her to ask any questions.
