MY BEST FRIEND

💭Alexia POV 💭

"Common let's hurry,Or we will be late mom" I said as we finished washing the dishes

"And all this is because a special person is coming back right?" My mom said as I untied my apron

"It is mom,So please hurry so we can go with them to the airport to welcome him,I want to see his face,Its been five years since we have last seen or heard from each other" I said

"Well you better go with them,I will stay back to finish the dishes" My mom said

"Are you sure? I would have loved to stay and help but the feeling to see my Best friend again is eating me up" I said

"Don't worry I will be okay,Just go" She said giving me a smile.

I went off and saw Frank,The chauffeur about to get in

"Mr Frank! Are you going to pick Nick up" I asked

"Yes I am" He said

"Where are his parents,They said they will be coming to welcome him from the airport" I asked

"Yes they did but something came up and they asked me to go and pick him up" He said

I smiled feeling happy that at least Nick disapproving mom wouldn't be coming with us

She had never approved of our friendship, She had always thought of me as the housekeeper daughter and I will keep on being that no matter how close I am to her son

Well am glad that Nick doesn't think the same way, Ever since my mom began to work for them,Have been Nick friend,His best friend he always said,He was always locked up in the big mansion and he hardly had anyone to play with well except for me.

He had only been five and I four when we began walking around together, our friendship grew and before we knew it we became teenagers who still treasured each other friendship

Maybe that was what Nick mother saw and to keep us apart she decided to send him to the States to finish his schooling there

Then he was fourteen while I was just about to clock thirteen

He had no option than to leave back then and though I felt sad about it,I still tried to write to him but he never returned my letter

Then about three years ago, He left school and debuted his first song,I wasn't surprised cause I knew that he loved music and I knew that he would certainly make it

And he did,Now he is known world wide and he is just nineteen, A young star I thought as the car stopped right in front of the airport

I wondered if he would still remember me,After all he is now a famous singer and he might have forgotten his Best friend

"Let's wait here for him,He said he would be out soon" Frank said and I stood beside him feeling agitated

Well for the past two years have been following everything he did

Though he didn't reply any of my letter,I began to follow him on IG,Facebook and any social media account ,I will even go out to get Newspapers just to follow up on his life.

I knew how he looked like now,Thanks to the media who kept on talking about him,I wonder if he will recognise me

If he would see that I was no longer that thirteen year old best friend he left behind.

The doors slid open and there he was walking towards us ,He looked more handsome than I expected.

I touched my beating heart and felt it beating the same way,The way it always did around him

I haven't really said it right? Well am in love,Always have been In love with my best friend

It all began when I knew the meaning of love and I fell for My best friend,Maybe because he had been the only boy around me,I fell for him but I kept it a secret and it will keep on being a secret

I thought as I watched him move to us,He had his glasses on So no one will recognize him

But if no one recognized him,I did,He is the most handsome guy ever

He has grown up to be the perfect guy,Every girl wished to be with him and I wouldn't deny that I also find him more attractive than before

"Mr frank" He said and gave the man a hug

His parents had never been close with any of their workers but Nick had been

He had been close to every one of us and we all love him just for that alone.

He turned towards me and for a moment I thought he was going to walk to me and carried me while hugging me tight

He did that in the past and I certainly missed it

But it never happened because he stared at me and looked away

"A new worker right? You shouldn't have brought her,I would have handle it well with just you around" He said to Frank

Frank stared at me and tried to speak but he cut him off by asking something else

I felt like crawling up and to hide somewhere

He hadn't remember me,He had called me a new worker,His best friend has Just been a new worker,I thought as took the case he had been holding stretched to me

I took it and put it behind the boot and while he got in the front seat,I got in the back

While he filled Frank in about the things he did in the past,I stayed silent fighting the urge to yell at him that am Alexia,His best friend.

But common sense told me to shut up ,if I had been important to him,He would have remember me,It just proves that Nick never valued our friendship.

When the car finally drove into the estate,The other guards came to take his bags and I went back to the kitchen looking so very sad

"What happened? Didn't you see Nick?" My mother asked

"I did see him but he never recognised me mom,My best friend called me a new worker" I said sadly and she pulled Me to her

"He might have been so busy,Maybe it slipped his mind,Don't worry he will surely remember you" My mom said

"Stop trying to sweet talk me mom,there is no justification for what he did,He forgot me easily and that is that" I said

"My dear" mom said wanting to touch me but I moved away

"Don't feel pity for me,Its the last thing I want right now,If he can certainly forget I was his friend, I also can,I will take a walk and then do the shopping" I said and quickly left the mansion

I walked around for a while and then went to get groceries, It was getting quite dark when I let myself into the mansion using the workers quarters.

I was passing through the garden when suddenly the light that had been put off suddenly turned on

I stood for a while,wondering who could have turn on the lights

Just when I was about to leave,I saw him standing by the end of the garden starring at me

"Hello" He said starring at me and still feeling angry about how he could forget me

I answered " Am with the groceries sir and the sooner it gets to the kitchen,the better "I said and turned to walk the other way when he called my name

" Alex,really is this a way to treat your best friend, A friend you've seen almost Five years ago"He said

So he now remembered,I thought as I turned to stare at him

He alone calls me Alex and I found that I only like it when he calls me that.

"Oh really? I thought I am just a new work................." I couldn't complete my sentence because he came towards me and pulled me in to a fierce hug

"How could I have thought of you as a worker,You believed my lies and am sorry,All I can say right now,Is that for five years have missed my Best friend" he said and drew me closer

I smiled and held him back as tight I could

"I missed you too Nick" I whispered back
