Sorry for the slow update Koi Soups. I've been getting busy again since graduation. Thank you for your patience.

Dedicated to Elizabethwilson944.

The week after their date Lianna continued living her life as normal. She went to classes at the university during the week. On days when her schedule permitted she went to work. The only difference is the constant calls and messages from Alezorio everyday.

He sends her so many messages her phone remained on constant mute so it didn't go off while she's in class. Lianna was getting annoyed seeing his number appear on her screen. She considered blocking him.

Lianna did what she did best though, ignore him. In her mind she told herself its spam calls, they aren't important. Telling herself this made it easier to ignore the little voice that begs her to answer each time. Made it easier to not wonder about the what ifs?

Like what if Alezorio really likes you? What if he's really sorry?

Lianna pushed all those words to her subconscious. Continuing to write down the slides in professor Delprino's power points. She's writing frantically to not miss any important points because it's her trickiest class this semester.

Tricky because she has to really work to maintain an A. Professor Delprino is a harsh grader and her last paper wasn't the grade she'd wanted.

When Lianna got it and saw the bold B she knew she had to work even harder. If not her grade might fall at the end of the semester, if she doesn't get a better grade on the last two papers.

Lianna went to Professor Delprino's office that same day so he could explain where she went wrong and what to do differently on the next one. Her mind picture that day in his office. Sitting at his desk as professor explains where she went wrong with the paper.

"Lianna your argument makes a lot of sense but the support from the articles wasn't clear in breaking down the points. Like this paragraph here could have been stronger if you had added relevant data to further explain your claim while supporting your thesis."

Delprino had been very thorough with his feedback. He made a lot of good points. Plus she kind of rushed it because she couldn't focus after trying to finish after her date with Alezorio.

In less than a day even though she's uspset by what he did Alezorio completely ruined her focus. The usual Lianna wouldn't think about anything other than school, work, or approaching deadlines was totally enraptured by her sexy dermatologist.

Who even though she's been good at avoiding so far, she couldn't avoid forever. In about three weeks she had another appointment with him. He recommended Lianna to come in a month later to get started on her treatment.

Soon in three weeks time Lianna would have to see Alezorio again in a small room with just the two of them. She could barely handle his constant messages and calls. How would she manage being in a confine space with him?

Maybe I should reschedule the appointment.

But that'll only delay the inevitable. I have to see him eventually. Unless I want to contine living with my acene I have to see him.

The only other choice is switching to another doctor. But that basically running away.

Who cares at least I don't have to see Alezorio then.

Maybe I should reschedule.

The noise from others packing up around her alluded to the fact that class was over. Lianna totally missed the last point of professor Delprino's lecture.

Oh well. I'll worry about it later.

Lianna began packing up her belongings. Then she left the room and went towards the nearest exit out of Bukham Hall. She had no work today. No more like she called out because all she wanted to do was go home, eat, shower, and sleep.

When Lianna walked into the house it was quiet as per usual. She when to heat up food to eat. After scarfing it down because she hadn't eaten since breakfast Lianna rushed upstair to her bedroom. Dropping her bag next to her desk and going into the bathroom to shower.

She quickly brushed her teeth cleansed her face and showered in under twenty minutes. She dried forgoing lotioning and just puts on an over sized t-shirt and underwear. Jumping into bed after plugging in her phone and setting an alarm for tomorrow.

The last thing she remembered is wishing she never met Alezorio, before she fell asleep.

°°°

Alezorio spent the days after their date  calling Lianna every chance he got. Making sure to text her often as well. But of course she didn't respond to any of it.

She didn't reply to any of the texts he sent or answer when he called. Lianna completely ignored him. Alezorio was starting to get aggravated that he played with the idea of stopping by her house. That might not work out as well as he wants. She could leave him standing outside her door.

But if he didn't go see her, Alezorio Will have to wait until her next appointment. He didn't know if he could wait that long. She's starting to wear him down.

Alezorio bid his patient goodbye and heads to his office. Sitting at his desk he gets out his phone to see if there's any change. There wasn't.

No response from Lianna.

Do I wait or do I go see her?

Go see her. Said the voice in my head.

If not I'll have to wait three more weeks. I can't wait that long.

I'll go once I get off work.

°°°

Alezorio is standing on Lianna's doorstep. He's waiting for someone, preferably her to get the door. Hopefully she doesn't slams it in his face.

He pressed the small button and waits for his faith. Alezorio stood nervous running his hand through his hair. It probably looked like a bird's nest now.
Few seconds later the door opens. Expecting to see Lianna but he encounters someone else.

"Can I help you?"

A woman with black hair and hazel green eyes asks him. She has carmel glowing skin and a nose the same shape as Lianna.

Who is she?

"Is Lianna home I'm her doctor?"

Her response is to stare him up and down, before opening the door wider to let me through. I walked into a homey looking living room and shut the door behind me.

"You can have a seat I'll go get her. I'm Jaye by the way, Lianna's older sister."

Jaye goes upstairs.

I didn't know she has a sister. Actually I don't know much about Lianna. She doesn't talk about herself.

We need to change that soon.

I hear two pairs of footsteps coming downstairs. Then Jaye comes into frame and Lianna comes around behind her. Lianna's eyes are drowsy. She must have been asleep. When she lands on me Lianna seems to want to turn back around. She comes over to where I am though and Jaye heads into the kitchen.

"Why are you here?" Lianna whisper-scream so only I can hear.

"Because we need to talk and since you've seen avoiding my calls, I had no other option."

My voice is filled with a promise. I'm not leaving until we talk. She wouldn't get rid of me so easy. We both stare at each other, an unbreakable silence fills the room.

"Let's go" Lianna finally urge leading the way.

The definite talk loomed ahead. Let's just hope it ends well.
