Chapter 1: Three years, Three lies.
Micah's POV.
' How could one's love change so fast '
I thought as I walked aimlessly round the street with fat hot tears streaming down my face.
Was it really love?
I had no one to ask, but sincerely, I didn't need anyone to tell me. Now I now know the right answer, NO.
It was definitely love for me, but it seems it wasn't the same for him.
Family?
I muttered as I rested behind a rock, my legs hurting so hard and begging not to be used aimlessly.
A word I never knew I would come to hate so much.
In what way have I done anything wrong?
First love? True love?
It's all a sham. Never believe that if you were told, never again.
I wanted to find and murder that one person who had said from the start that first love doesn't work out.
I believe that one person is the cause of my misfortune now.
I squat down, not bothering to clean those tears that can't stop dripping down my face.
How did I get so blind? Blinded that I could not even differentiate from being used to being loved.
Tons of questions were running in my head with no answer to tend to them.
A new fresh troll of tears dripped down from my eyes as I remembered the conversation that had just taken place 45 minutes ago.
45 minutes earlier.....
" You're engaged?" I whispered yelled, hint of happiness could be heard in my voice even as I tried to keep my tiny voice at bay.
" Yes, sister," she answered, nodding, and I could see she wasn't that thrilled to share the news with me.
I smiled heartily.
" You don't need to feel guilty, Colette, Nate would propose to me when the time is right," I said with hope filled in my heart, perhaps.
" Is it your mystery boyfriend? Do I know him? Is it the same guy you refuse to let me meet or even know his name? I knew it was definitely him, but i still wanted to check the fact without any doubt.
Colette, as I can tell, is head over heels for this guy, I have no idea when they started dating, but I got to know about it recently. She had refused to let me meet her boyfriend or even let me talk to him, not even a picture of him.
Most times, late night text, the video calls, and numerous dates, Colette talks a lot about him, but I have never met him. She had never allowed me to.
" I will show him to you now, sister," Cole announced, and I paused, giving her a puzzled look. All of a sudden, she wants to show me the guy she has been hiding from me all this time.
" Really, Colette?" I voiced out still excited to be meeting with him finally. My sky blue eyes lit up with curiosity as suspense seems to pull me in as each second tickled by.
Finally, she has decided to show me this guy that she talks so much about, I've asked her several times to tell me about him or let me meet him but she often refuse or come up with different excuses that makes no actual sense but this time Wendy is voluntarily making me meet him.
" Where is he?" I asked my eyes, scanning around the room in search of this guy whom my sister loves so much.
She stood up slowly and walked towards the door, I don't know if am being too touchy but Colette doesn't look alright, she's supposed to be happy, she's the latest fiancee in town but it seems something vis wrong with her, one which I can't really place my hands on.
I sat gently, anticipating this guy so eagerly. My patience was running out badly, and Cole was contributing to it as she walked slowly to the door. I badly wanted to meet this infamous guy.
I heard Colette breathe down heavily before summoning up courage to open the door.
Is she afraid I won't approve of the guy? Of course not, I would support her in any choice she chose to make.
The door squeaked in opening and slowly revealed a tall man.
He was putting on a navy blue black suit, with the buttons appropriately in order, the suit shows how well it was being ironed, his long feet was claded in a black shiny toluene shoes, giving him the pass of a gentle man.
His face could pass an average model, and his brown hair was styled and gelled modestly, making him look splendid.
He stood still, like a hero.
" Nate," I squealed as my lips pulled into a wide smile.
" You came just right in time, Colette is about to show me her, fiancee." I could not hide the happiness in my voice, and Nate is not someone I would try to hide it from.
But as if I didn't just speak to him, he stood still, his eyes glued to Colette.
" Honey," Cole called as she rushed into Nate arms like she had been expecting him.
" How are you?" Nate asked, bending to her height before placing a kiss on her forehead.
What is happening?
Colette and Nathaniel, my boyfriend, have never been this intimate minus the constant eye contact I used to witness.
" Is something wrong here?" I asked confusedly.
Even if Nate is drunk again, Colette is perfectly okay.
" Sorry sister, meet my fiance Nate and Micah, my sister." Colette spoke up, not looking guilty anymore but with enough courage.
" And sister," Cole continued. She pointed her fingers to herself then to Nate before continuing. " It's our engagement ceremony next week because I'm pregnant for him, and we can't wait to live as one," Colette completed smiling sheepishly.
I'm really confused. What the hell is going on here?.

Chapter 2: Betrayals hits hard.
Micah's POV.
Wait, what's going on here?.
This is my boyfriend and also my sister.
" Nate, are you okay?" I asked concerned because I am accurately sure something is wrong with Nate.
" Look, Micah, I am fine and have been wanting to tell you this a long time ago, I don't think you're the right woman for me, I have tried God knows, countlessly to deal with your boring nature, but it's just not it for me, I can't anymore, I've been meaning to tell you this, I mean you're so dumb that you've not been seeing the clues and signals I've been letting on for you to see how tired I am but you're so dumb to gets that, look Micah, Colette is pregnant with my baby and she's the only woman I love, it's a good thing right? Nate confessed, ending his abrupt speech with a smile before turning to face Colette.
" Sister, you're also invited, I'll leave a spot for you," Colette let out, obviously mocking me but with sheer happiness in her voice.
I sat still astounded by all that had just unfolded, unable to even form any right words to say.
The two people in front of her....
Is it a nightmare?
Did Nate just say I'm not the right woman for him?
I was too dumb to take the clues he was giving.
My eyes darted to both of them who were staring lovingly at each other.
I sat gobsmacked, unable to lift a feet, I felt my whole world spinning right in front of my face, disbelief clearly in my eyes.
I was unable to accept the truth that was clearly happening right in front of me.
" How long as this has been going on? I stuttered as I managed to find my voice, and just like I had expected, my voice had turned hoarse, I was on the verge of tearing up.
" Two years now," Cole replied almost immediately.
Bloody hell.
My sister and my three years boyfriend were having an affair, and I didn't even notice or get suspicious enough to grasp.
I'm really stupid, really, really stupid.
A wild pathetic smile left my lips as I stared into space.
" Look, Micah, I know you're angry or mostly suprise but it's been a hard work keeping it from you and I would never do anything to hurt you that's why I Decided to come clean now, I had told mom you wouldn't like it but she still approve of us letting you know" Cole said as she picked on her nails.
Mom? My mother?
" Yes, your parents had given us their full support and approved of our relationship when we actually started dating," Nate said and placed a kiss on Colette's ring finger.
My eyes caught the ring, and immediately, I accepted all of it. It is true and real.
I have been betrayed by everyone I ever loved.
My boyfriend of three years has been sleeping with my elder sister, and soon enough, they would be getting engaged with the blessings of my own parents.
I let out a hysterical laugh... Who says family is the only true friendship you can find.
Why were all the bad things in life faced in my direction?
Why?
I picked up my bag and walked out, I couldn't take it anymore. The couple hadn't even noticed that I had stood up, they werw still entangled in a lovey dovey position
BACK TO PRESENT...
And now I am still crying, no wonder, the constant asking if Nate had proposed to me from colette.
The constant late night work excuses from Nate, he had been spending those times with Colette and giving me excuses that I've been believing foolishly.
Oh god...
How could the best graduating student of Oxford turn out to be so foolish in the aspect of love?
The saying is really true " Love they say is blind," but to my case, I lost my sight totally.
" Grr.."
My phone rang, and I stared at it, unable to even pick it up, I just stared at the caller id till it went off. I couldn't find the strength to pick it up.
It rang one more time, and hesitantly, I picked it before placing it on my ears.
My sobs were the first to get out before my voice.
" Are you okay, Micah?" Emily asks, obviously heard my sobs.
" Micah, what's wrong with you? Friggin talk to me. " Emilia urges in panic, yet I said nothing.
" Em, Nate is getting engaged to.... Colette, " I finally spoke up after holding it in.
My voice broke down at the end, but I was sure Em heard me right.
" What the hell?" Daisy screams from the background.
" I've always known Nate is so stupid, and your sister is so self conceited and won't waste any chance to ruin your life." Daisy faint voice still chipped in.
" Go stuff your mouth with your favourite candy or snacks, Daisy, if you won't help issues here," Emily yelled back.
"What? Am only pointing out the truth here, " Daisy muttered, defending herself.
"Thanks,well, no one needs it now," Emily scoffed.
I felt relieved for having friends like them because at a point like this, their bantering lits up my mood a bit.
"My bad, Micah,are you fine? of course you aren't " Daisy muttered to herself, finally realising the point Emily was talking about.
" Where are you, baby girl?" Emily called out.
" we'll come to you," Daisy added, concerned.
Just then, droplets of rain start pouring out instantly, disconnecting the call.
Why is everything bad happening to me.
The rain soon turned heavy, but I had no intentions of getting out of the rain. Instead, I allowed myself to soak in the rain mixed with another round of fresh tears.
Will I be able to heal from this wound?

Chapter 3
' strike a deal with me '
" You look ---" Emilia gushed as she stared at me
" Hideous " i completed, and Daisy nodded in support.
" Just the right word I was looking for," Emily specified, earning a glare from me.
"Look, Micah , you're beautiful, fun, and cool, you're kind and sexy," Emily started, and i glanced at her warily when she said the word " sexy."
" I know, I know, we agreed on the "no using the word sexy" term but to be sincere, those are the truth nothing but the truth, that prick Nate just didn't realize you're worth a gem and just let you flew pass him, since he decided to settle for a low life bitch, so be it but Micah you're a genius and perfect, believe me" Emily stated as she tried to brace up her friend.
" Wow, I'm almost moved to tears. Thanks, Em. You're the best." I, muttered in between sincere smile to Emilia.
" Yeah Micah, you're strong, smart i mean you're a geek and let's not forget,courageous and you shouldn't waste your tears and time crying over someone worthless who never really had a purpose in life, get over that jerk baby girl" Daisy added.
"Thank you so much guys " i agreed trying to steer clear from wallowing in self pity.
" Okay enough if the pity party guys and guess what?" Emily squealed, grinning from ear to ear.
"No, no, no, don't tell me there's another party cus I'm definitely not attending this." I decline even without waiting to hear what Emily had to say.
Of course, she didn't need to say anything, Eloise where she was headed to.
" C'mon Micah, don't be a kill joy, I promise you it's gonna be fun, and of course hot guys would be present. Remember, you're back to the single click." Emily whispered and winked at her.
" Emilia," Daisy called out.
" Sorry, sorry, sorry," Emily apologized.
" Trust me, it's gonna be fun and you just get to drink, drink away your sadness and completely forget about that primp, you might just have an hot dude to spend the night with" Daisy said with a smudge smile.
" You know, I'm not doing that--" i disagreed trying to start up an argument but was cut short by Emily.
" I know, I know, saving chastity for your future husband, who the hell still does that, the world is now advance," Em spoke up as like she hated the idea of saving chastity.
" So are you in, remember, drink to forget things that are meant to be forgotten?" Em asked, pouting.
" Okay, okay, I'm in," i agreed, earning a squeal and an unexpected hug from Emily and daisy at once.
.
.
.
" I'm not wearing this, I'm seriously not." I declined, throwing the black strapless gown back to Daisy.
" Swears, it's nothing, it's okay, please just wear this hmm..." Daisy pleaded
" Okay," i finally agreed in order to get this thing over with quickly
.
.
.
" Are you sure this is okay? " I stood at the entrance as she stared at the big mansion in front of her.
" Sure, I'm gonna make the best out of this night," Daisy giggled, oblivious to the fact that her friend was uncomfortable.
" Just like the name, SIN, let's make good sin," Emily giggled, pulling me in.
" There's nothing like a good sin. A sin is a sin," I muttered to myself
After the early pass because obviously Emily knew the bodyguards, we were allowed to enter.
I stood Gobsmacked as she stared at the huge interior, the disco light and transparent rooms filled with many things. Different people could be seen making the best moments of her night.
I watched as the others danced, drinked without having much to worry about.
At the moment, i decided to let my worries go .
It is said that to forget a former love, find a new one.
Nathaniel Lorentz had cheated on me because i insisted on keeping my chastity till our wedding night, but right now, am not having that again.
I decided to also make the best out of this night, and immediately i grabbed a cup of liquor, without no hesitation, gulping down the glass filled with hot alcohol.
" Wow," i gasped as i felt the drink burnt down my throat .
" That's it, girl," Emily and Daisy hyped as they picked her own glass, too.
I picked up the second glass, chugged it down, and another. I am a light drinker and obviously already drunk after chugging three glasses of Mac dowells.
I sat still as my eyes rummaged the club room drunkily and right there, my eyes got struck a gentle dude who sat alone with a cup of drink held between his palm.
" Woah, He's so hot, " i muttered as my feet rushed to move towards him.
But just as i stood up, i felt the whole hall turning right in front of me, and i couldn't even stand up straight.
.
.
" Hey," i called out as soon as i stood in front of the man.
He sat at the corner of the hall room alone, elegance dripping down from him.
He raised his eyes away from his drink as he gazed intensely at me, his eyes taking every bit of my information.
" You wanna strike a deal with me ? I questioned, raising my cute blue eyes to look at him.
He didn't give any response but instead, he continued staring at me as he picked his glass contained with wine and placed them on his lips sexily.
I thought i was watching an artwork live.
His brown eyes kept taking in each and every inch of my look, but mainly my blue eyes and my brown silky hair that lay sexily on my shoulders.
" Be my one night stand," i blurted out.
Ervin almost choked on his drink as he spit out surprisingly before asking
You look so skinny, Are you sure you would be able to keep up ? " a cold but cool voice asked the little girl that stood drunkily and at the same time courageously.
" You look so fit. Are you sure it's not just for decorations ?" I retorted.
