I Married My Twin Sister's Fiancé

" Dear God! All I just want is to have a beautiful family with my dearest fiance. I wish nothing more!"

I heard my sister praying while her makeup artist and hairdresser were giving her the best look for her engagement party. Today is her engagement party and one week later, she will be wedded to her Fiancé.

Odette Anderson is my twin sister's name. A gorgeous 25-year-old girl who is well-liked by everyone. Her beauty to her personality, everything is as perfect as a rainbow after the rain. Her eyes are the ocean of summer, radiant blue and calm like spring. The blonde hair she got from my mother, adds the last card of her ethereal beauty.

Today, she is going to engage with her boyfriend, the son of our parents' best friend, a billionaire and obviously, a person with a great personality.

This is the second time I am going to meet him. He is handsome, cool and really easygoing. Not with me or anyone else. To my sister, of course. They're a perfect couple as if they're only made for each other.

" Juliette! Why didn't you change yet? How many times have I told you not to make us ashamed? Did you forget how much humiliation we received on that day?"

I startle when my mother snaps at me.

This is true. I humiliated them with my stupid look. I am not as beautiful as my twin sister. I am 25 years old. But people sometimes think that I am a 40-year-old woman. I weigh 210 pounds, Got a messy curly hair, dull brown hair not as eye-catching as my family's, and my eyes are brown, inherited from someone from my father's side. I actually don't have any idea who it is. lol.

But we both have the same face except for those eyes, hair and obviously the weight. My sister is like a female lead out of the magazine, whereas I am some stupid, lazy and ugly side character of the novel. No, I don't think even an artist would like to draw such an ugly character in their art.

" Stop dozing off! Juliette! Get changed. Don't break your new dress's zipper again. Gosh! Where can I go with this girl?"

As I yawn, My mother grunts throwing the dress on me that she bought for me. " Stop lazing around!!!"

" I won't, okay?" I curled my lip while rolling my eyes, what to do if I always feel so sleepy... Gosh!

" You will, Juliette. Don't be so confident. Just don't go to the front line when our engagement party starts. I don't want to be embarrassed!" Odette scoffs. As usual, her words feel like daggers being stabbed into my heart to bleed.

" Why? I am your sister. Also, I returned home to attend your engagement party. Can't you just be a little soft to your own Sister?" I asked. It's hurting my ego.

" C'mon! This is the main point. Did you look at yourself? I don't think your face resembles any human face. It's a pig face. Moreover, all of my friends don't like to stand with you. You will ruin their mood!"

" Odette!!! You are being too much!" I hiss. She is literally ignoring my feelings.

" Also, what if you fall and break the stage like you broke your chair! I don't want another shameful commotion on my important day!"

" I didn't break my chair, for god sake!!!"

" I don't care. I just want you to stay away from my party. Don't stand when my friends or fiance come. I don't want to feel humiliated..."

How could she! I travelled back home from another state, just to attend the engagement. How could she be so heartless with her own sister?

" Mom! Can't you tell something to her? How could she treat her sister like trash?"

" You are trash! Juliette." Odette laughs loudly, even the people who are in the room laugh at me like I am nothing.

" Mom! Your daughter is being too much now." I called Mom, trying to hold myself back but what breaks my heart more when my mother responds...

" Why are you so eager to stand in the front line? You will fall or trip over anytime. It will ruin Odette's image. Don't need to go front line." My mother adds, giving everyone another chance to laugh at me.

" Oh!" I smile forcefully. It somehow hurts.

" Anyway, Change the dress. If you don't fit in it. Don't come to the party! I don't have time to bring another one for you!-"

" Mom!!!!' I screamed.

" Just directly tell me that you don't want to attend the engagement party. I know I am going to humiliate you. Because I am not as beautiful as Odette is. I know, fine. I won't attend."

Tears stream down my face as I can't engulf the pain that they're causing, just using their words.

"Who told you not to come? Stop overacting! Also, stop crying all the time. It's disgusting!!!" Odette snorts, rolling her eyes.

" You two are so mean. Always been a mean to me!"

I storm out of the room while crying. This is nothing new but still, it's my sister's special day, who was born on the same day as mine, we grew up together.

" Why are they so bad to me? Why? I am ugly, I didn't make myself - Ouch!"

My hand immediately reaches to my forehead when I bump into someone. But I couldn't raise my head, the tears had no plans to stop. My heart keeps squeezing to bleed...

" Are you okay?"

I look up, my tears have messed up the light makeup, my sister's makeup artist put on me secretly.

The person with a soft voice whispers nearby me, is my sister's Fiancé. He always holds a cold and Unapproachable Aura. But I saw him smiling or making jokes with my sister.

How nice to have someone who loves you unconditionally. And my sister got everything you can only imagine to have. Parents' love, talent, beauty and a partner who will kill anyone for her. Isn't it nice?

" I am... I am fine. Thank you!"

I walk by him. Right now,

" Who is she? She was crying!" My sister's Fiancé asked his assistant.

Huh! My attention goes to him, whose eyes are admiring my sister...

As expected, ugly people, don't have the right to be remembered. It was last week when he visited my sister and we bumped into each other and shared greetings. Today, he doesn't even know who I am.

It always happens. Since the very beginning of my life, Although I wasn't chubby I was dull enough not to be noticed by anyone. My sister's appearance was enough to keep me in the shadows.

Even when I was born. Everyone was busy admiring how beautiful my sister was, and I was crying alone in the cradle. Sometimes, My grandma, a snowy white snow, English woman, tells me jokes about how ugly I was when I was born. First, they thought I wasn't my father's child. But because of the resemblance between me and my sister, they didn't do anything like a DNA test or something.

And this is how, Since childhood, my family indirectly taught me that there is rank in everything. Even if it's within the family or the society. The more beautiful and talented you are, the more you'll get valued.

And, what should I debate about it? In my 25 years old life, nobody told me that they liked me or had a love at first sight... Crazy! Have you ever seen anyone getting a love at first sight on an ugly girl?

Even their smile looks like a joke.

" Angel! My beautiful angel! Why are you leaving?"I stop, hearing the familiar voice.

"Dad???"

My father, the only person in my life who never talked to me rudely, walks towards me.

But...

If there is a chance to choose someone between me and my sister. My father will save my sister without any second thoughts.

" Why are you crying? Are you hungry? I bought so much chocolate for you. Go home and have some chocolate."

" So that I don't attend the party?" I ask, knowing that he will accept my mother's decision.

" N... No. Why. Why would you have to... I mean, my angel doesn't like crowds. Won't it be a good decision not to attend the party?"

" Dad!!!!" I grit.

" I am her sister. Twin sister who grew up with her. I.. I wanted to - Never mind... I will do what you think is good for you all. After all, it doesn't matter if someone like me doesn't stand next to you. Please have another family photo without me this time too..."

" Angel!!!"

" I am not your angel. Don't mock me with your words, Dad. I hate you all. I am not your family!!!"

Everyone is hurting me. They're so selfish. On our graduation day, My parents got a family photo together and I wasn't there. They were so busy with my sister's achievement that they didn't even feel the empty spot which belonged to me. So even if I disappear from their lives, they won't be sad or miss me. I know that very well.

If you stand before the huge family photo of our family, you can clearly see, how different we are. My mother and father both were holding my sister's hand while I was standing like an outcast next to my grandparents who were also smiling at my sister.

And the more time pass, the more I have realized, I am just a worthless wallflower in the middle of our family circle.

Next Morning...

" Angel!"

My father opens the door with a subtle push. His head is hanging down, seemingly he is here to apologize for something they actually don't think they are guilty over.

" Why did you skip the meals? You know you can't stay without a meal. Shall I order something delicious for you?" he said, approaching me with slow steps.

" I am not hungry, Dad. And it was last night. I have always had my breakfast!" I said standing up from the chair.

" Oh. What is your plan today?"

" Nothing, Dad. Just crushing bed whole day long!"

" I... I see. So, What about we go to some Chinese restaurant and have some -"

" Don't beat around the bush, Dad. You know you can say whatever you wish to!"

I know they won't think I am someone important to say sorry for everything they did last night.

" Well, Your sister is going abroad for her wedding shopping with William. So I was thinking can you go and buy the tickets for her? I would have gone but I have to attend a meeting urgently!"

" Now?" I asked since it was the first time they told me to do something about buying.

" No. Tomorrow. It's urgent. Odette doesn't want to use our private jet... So!"

" Dad! I told you I have an interview tomorrow!"

That's right. The only reason I am here is to attend my sister's engagement. But I have to return to my apartment. This matter slipped my mind.

" Can't you just miss this one? Also, I said you can work in my company!"

" Enough! Dad. Don't you know how important that job is for me? You know I can't -"

" But your sister -"

" Stop!!!! STOP! What sister? I told you I have to attend the interview and it's important. How come it is less important than some damn tickets? She has Everyone. She has Mom, his fiance, you and your power. Can't you just arrange or buy it online? Why can't you give a little priority to my wishes?"

" Julie!!!! How selfish you are!!! Your sister is getting married. She just wished one thing and you are... I am disappointed!" My mother walked into my room, furious and disappointed.

" Selfish? I wish I never had someone like her as Sister and you all as my family. I hate you -"

A sharp slap across my face makes my world deafening. The anger I had in my head suddenly left, making me feel so empty and worthless of everything.

" Now I know you are a selfish spoiled kid. Your sister is getting married. She is leaving us. But you are here being so ungrateful for everything! Why are you so unsatisfied with us? Who lives in such a lavish lifestyle? Your drawers are filled with your favourite snacks, and your credit card is filled with money. You get whatever you want. Still, being so ungrateful? Go and see the world. Lots of people can't even afford to buy a meal. We are raising you. you should be grateful for this!"

That's right I should be grateful for everything. But have they ever asked if I wanted them or not?

They bought me dresses which I can't wear. With my body, it becomes harder to breathe when I wear those dresses.

" Leave it, honey! If you don't have time, then don't. Don't push yourself hard!"

My father pats my head before leaving. Still, they don't care about my interview. I know about it. But...

This time, the choice is mine. I can't give up on my dreams...

And...

I was wrong...

I got rejected before I could even get into the room to join my interview...

The next morning, when I walked into the office room to have my interview, one of the employees stopped me.

" Are you Miss? Juliette Anderson?" she asked me politely while glancing at the list of interviewees.

" Yes. I am."

" Hello, Sorry for informing you that, your name was mistakenly included in the list of passed candidates. Our Company will give you an explanation for this later. We sincerely apologize for this big mistake!"

Her words were so confusing that I couldn't understand what she was talking about. But I was standing still, realizing that... I am no longer going to attend the interview for my dream job. Being an office worker!

" But Miss. I have already passed the exam and I have the marksheet of my written exams. How could-"

" It's a mistake, okay? As I said our company will give you an explanation for this huge mistake. But for now, you may leave!"

What are they talking about? I know, I did well in the written exam. Why is this happening? How could a good company like them a mistake? Such a huge mistake?

My dream which I raised within me for years, has collapsed before it even started. I worked hard to get here. All of them became mistakes.

The weight increased on my shoulders as I walked out of the company, devastated. Why would this have to be happy with me? I thought I finally found happiness where I could live life as I wished to.

Anyway, I decided to walk around a little before heading back home.

Buying a hot dog, I walk by the lake near the bus station. The fresh air lifts the mood instantly.

However, as I sit on a bench to enjoy my food, the sound of camera clipping gets my attention. Raising my head, I look at the person who is standing with a camera.

" Mind If I take a picture of yours?"

He is not older than me, I can guess. Not older than William as well. Has clear skin, a beautiful smile and a remarkable appearance. However, what I hate most is taking pictures without permission. And he has already taken one without my permission.

" No. And It's not a good manner to take someone's picture without any prior notice!" I coldly speak ignoring his words that are ready to form out.

" But -"

I walk away.

But I never knew that we would cross our road one day...

Distraught, I walk towards the bus station. I hate Bus.

After a long and tiring journey, I crawl myself into the house. Alas! The staircase looks like Everest to climb. I will die if this continues. I need my bed. I miss my sweetie, cutie, softie, only bed. Should I get married in my bed? I wish I could. Like Suga said I should have been born as a stone instead of a human. I hate Moving!!!!!

Whatever it is to me being a human or stone. Nothing will change. Sigh~

I somehow climb the Everest-like Staircase and walk towards my sister's room. I bought one extra ticket knowing that someone would join her.

However, as I step before the door. My heart skips a beat. My body freezes while tears gather around my eyes. I hear my sister and mother's conversation...

" Don't worry. She will return home soon. The interview is cancelled! He just confirmed me!" my sister said...

How did they know that my interview was cancelled when I didn't tell anyone about it?

" You did great by asking them not to let her attend the interview. She is too stupid that she believe she can get a job. Look at her. She doesn't even understand how pathetic she looks when she cries at this age. I don't know what I should do with her. Thinking about her future, I can't sleep properly. What if she destroys our reputation? I can't understand what I should do!"

I can't trust that my mother would say something like that. But what breaks me more is that my sister and mother are the reason behind my interview being cancelled. I can't trust my ears.

" So, you two are behind my interview being cancelled?"

My eyes burn, unable to comprehend that who I am looking at, are my mother and my sister. And they're behind my dream being crashing down.

" Is my dream a joke to you?"

" Ju... Julie!" My mother shudders,

" You are back? We just helped you to -" Odette smirks before talking but...

For the first time, I slapped my sister so hard that she fell on the couch with a hiss. My anger issues have always been a trouble for them. But today, it went above its limits.

" Who are you to do this to me? Who the fuck are you to cancel my interview? You fucking bitch!!!"

I jumped on her and... slapped, slapped and then slapped... My mother tried to stop me. But I don't know what kind of emotions overwhelmed within me that... At this moment, all I want to do is kill her. My body strength and the heat of my body increase rapidly.

She has stumbled upon my dream, like a joke, making a tool for her happiness...

" You damn bitch... You deserve to die!"

And as I raise my hand for another slap, a strong pull from my behind, throws me in the corner of the room. Before I could realize what just happened to me, something warm gushed out of my forehead, making my vision entirely red.

" Odette! Are you okay?" the familiar voice belongs to her fiancé. When did they come?

" OMG! What happened to her? Odette! Are you okay?"

Lots of people's voices keep banging in my eardrums as the sharp pain in my head keeps throbbing again.

A sudden electric shock in my body immediately numbs me, creating a blackout in my sight. And leaving me in no more sense.

" Seems like I can't escape from this pathetic life!"

.......

" How could you hurt your sister? What were you thinking? Are you out of mind? What didn't I give you? You almost ruined your sister's wedding" I watch my father walking back and forth, snapping at me like I made a grave mistake.

" Why- Why? Dad! Why are you confronting me? She substaged my job. Why are you talking like I would destroy her marriage? Is her Marriage so much more important than my dream? Is it?"

I asked my father who was standing before me with a dark and sour expression. My grandparents just left after blaming me for everything, my mother didn't even care about coming as she kept cursing me from downstairs.

"Do I deserve it? Dad! I agree that I hit her impulsively. But shouldn't I deserve an explanation from Mom and her? I am your blood too. I am your daughter too. Why are you two always... No everyone... Everyone neglects me. Why? Don't you feel a little bit of resentment? You don't treat me as your family. Why?" I question, my tears are unstoppable...

" Is it my fault that I don't have blonde hair, blue eyes and something like a princess like your other daughter does? It is not my fault. I didn't ask to be your daughter. If I could... I would have never chosen you as my parents. Ever, Dad. Honestly!" I sniffle, staring at my father, head highly raised. I am serious about my words. I would have never chosen them as my family.

" You-" He rubs his forehead and adds, " I am just speechless that you used violence, Julie! Nobody expected this from you. Thankfully your sister's In-laws are good people. They don't -"

" Dad-!" I stopped, inhaling sharply, knowing that they didn't even care about anything. No, I am the stupid one, I know that they're blind when it comes to my problems.

" Nevermind! Please leave!"

" I have sent the money for the tickets you bought for your sister. Treat your wound! Odette is upset."

I watch him walking out, one after one, making me the culprit here. I shouldn't have come. I regret coming home.

The pain in my head is still fresh as I didn't treat my wound. I woke up in the corner of the room, finding nobody around. All I could hear, my parents were bad-mouthing me, blaming me for my bad Temper. Her in-laws gave me a look of disgust. So, all I could do was run inside my room, with no sense of pain. But now it has increased.

" Let's pack up. It's suffocating!" I whisper to myself walking towards the closet.

However, my attention goes to my phone when lots of notifications constantly appear on my phone.

I hold the phone, remembering I forgot to call my bestie. But when I eye down the notifications and read them one after one, my heart drops, and a strong squeeze in my heart along with a lightheadedness throws me on the floor.

All of the application I applied to different companies, and all the written exams I was supposed to attend this month, and every one of them rejected my application. Even the primary applications, everything.

" Why? Why-?"

A few droplets of blood fall off my nose on my phone screen, making me mute for a few seconds. Before my eyes, I can see my dark future.

" What are you staring at?"

My eyes follow the hand which snatches the phone from me. As I raise my head, Before my eyes, my sister's Fiancé is standing, holding my phone with blood on it.

But my eyes burn, widely staring at him when the corner of his lips raise, " Whoever hurts my Lover, will face the same consequences. Since my Odette thinks you are incapable of getting a job, you don't deserve it!"

What did he just say? "He... He did?" I whisper...

" Yes. I did. For hurting her!"

I can't trust my eyes. He did to me. He destroyed the rest of my dreams that could have saved me from this unbearable hell.

" No company will accept the Name Juliette Anderson. So don't need to try hard."

His cruel words rip my heart like someone tearing a paper. His eyes are flaming with disgust, hatred and enraged hostility toward me.

" But I didn't do anything wrong..." I said, biting my lip.

" What did you say?" His sharp eyes gaze at me, staring at me like he will pierce me...

" I didn't do anything. I didn't do Anything wrong to deserve this. Do you know how much I worked hard? How fucking hard it was for me to reach this point? You Bastard!!!" I spat, wiping the tears that shed shamelessly.
