Next day, Alonzo had left for his trekking on the scheduled day, whereas Alex got ready to meet Veronica..

He was beaming with joy after meeting her but somewhere in his heart, there was a layer of sadness illuminating like a dark fog..

After meeting her, he called Alonzo and came to know that, he had also arrived there safely. Both of the brothers had talked to each other for quite a while but suddenly Alonzo felt there was something wrong with Alex's voice...

It was like... Alex was not talking properly with him and having some reluctance in the middle of his every words. His voice seemed be a little heavy also...

"Alex, did something happen to you? Your voice seemed to be a little hoarse? Did you cry?" Alonzo asked.

"No nothing happened. It's just that I'm a little bit tired and wanted to sleep." Alex replied.

Alonzo nodded his head and said, "Okay then.. Good night."

But Alonzo didn't know that, this one simple negliance of him would lead him to curse his luck for the whole life...

----

Three days later, Alonzo came back from his Trek and called for his brother..

"Alex?"

"Alex?"

"Where are you?" Alonzo shouted but there was no response..

Getting no answer, Alonzo checked Alex's room, kitchen, bathroom but he couldn't find him anywhere..

Getting panicked, he started to sweat profusely and decided to get freshened up first, then he would find him..

As soon as he opened the door of the balcony of his room, he found Alex sitting in the corners folding his hands and knees together, crying badly with a disheveled look...

Without wasting anymore time, Alonzo rushed towards his twin and shook him hardly.

"Alex.. Alex.. What happened to you buddy? Why are you looking like this?" Alonzo asked getting scared of his brother's behavior.

Alex looked up at his brother with his teary eyes and pounced on him and hugged him tightly as he stuttered  between his sobs, "Vero.. bad words.. slap.."

Again he broke into cries while hiccuping in middle.. Alex was sobbing so badly that he could only said few words and that even couldn't be understood well...

Alonzo patted him on his shoulder to soothe him but he cried even more, "Alex, please calm down and tell me everything clearly."

"Alonzo.. Dad threat.. Veronica.." Before Alex could utter more words he just fainted, making Alonzo more terrified.

He patted Alex's cheeks and called in panic, "Akex.. bro.. wake up.. wake up please.."

But Alex gave him no response and kept his eyes closed. Alonzo picked him up very cautiously and laid him back on the bed. He then called Alex's doctor to check him up.

Half an hour later, the doctor had done with treating Alex and informed Alonzo, "Nothing much to worry. It's  because of his terror as he stressed out too much. Just give him some hygienic food and he'll be fine."

Alonzo nodded his head and after the doctor left, he sat beside Alex and caressed his hair for the whole night without stopping for once in the middle.

----

Next day morning, Alonzo had to go to his University for an important class but he couldn't leave Alex here alone in the home..

That's why Alonzo called to doctor to ask for a nurse so that she could check on him while he was outside. The nurse came after one hour and Alonzo reminded her everything about Alex's condition..

Alex was still sleeping in his room. So Alonzo decided not to wake him up and whispered lowly to him, "Take rest buddy. We'll talk later after I come back."

Placing a soft kiss on his forehead and ordering few things to the nurse, Alonzo left for the day..

When he came back that night, Alex was already up and watching TV sitting on his bed. Alex smiled as soon as he saw his brother.

Alonzo smiled back and greeted, "Hey Alex. How are you feeling now?"

"I am fine." Alonzo replied.

Taking a seat beside Alex, Alonzo asked, "What happened to you yesterday buddy? Why were you crying so hysterically?"

Alex's face paled as soon as he heard the question and he said, "Bro.. brother.. let's not talk about it now. I promise I'll tell you everything but not today, as I've more important things to discuss with you.."

"What is it bro? Tell me." Alonzo asked.

"Actually.. Vero called me today and asked me to meet her tomorrow. Yesterday I also went to meet her and some problems had occurred between us. I want to solve them with her personally so that later, both of us can explain about our true identities also and then you can propose her. 

But before that, I really want to meet her tomorrow personally." Alex request ed with his pituful eyes.

"But you are not well Alex." Alonzo tried to stop him.

"Please brother. Let me meet her tomorrow." Alex pleaded earnestly.

Alonzo finally nodded his head and agreed to his brother's wish without knowing that tomorrow would be the most horrible day of his life.

Tomorrow would be the day when he would lose two most important persons of his life.. The next day would decide their future and would be provocating him to turn into a cold iron..

This day would change his morality, his emotions, his focus on his life and most of all his heart would suffer the change the most, making it turned into a hard steel..

----

Back to present…

Everyone in the hall room was completely shocked, except one person who was Reuben..

No one could believe that a person could play with one's identity, lives, emotions like this..

Among everything, Veronica was the biggest victim of their so called plots..

*wham*

A loud sound echoed through the big room and everyone's face became horrified when they saw from where did the sound came just now...

Alonzo was bent towards his right side a little as he almost fell from the sudden force holding his left cheek with his left hand while his other hand held the table tightly to keep hold of his balance...
