Alaric kissed Aleksis very gently as he whispered, "You make me feel like there is hope for humans ..."
When Alaric kissed her, by reflex Aleksis closed her eyes and enjoyed the moment they had together before her boyfriend went to London tomorrow.
She was deeply moved when she heard Alaric say that Aleksis made him feel like there was hope for humanity.
That meant that for Aleksis, there was also hope that someday Alaric would be able to change.
Maybe with her love, Aleksis could change Alaric's mind and make him see life from a different perspective, that there was indeed hope for humans to change ... That humans could do better if they were supported and properly guided.
When Alaric moved away from Aleksis after their kiss, he was very surprised to see a tear fall down her cheek. He hurriedly stroked Aleksis' face worriedly, "What's wrong? Why are you crying? Am I hurting you? Did I say something wrong?"
Yeppp... their ship is sailing WAY TOO FAST now....
But, I'm so happy for them. I think they're cute together. They are kindred spirit and they share the same wavelength. They sometimes even think alike.
Truly, meant for each other.
