I WAS LEFT SPEECHLESS. NIHOLAS SCOWLED. HE CLEARLY WASN' T HAPPY. MY BROTHER STARED AT ME AND THEN HE SMILED. AFTER SOME MINUTES THE ROOM WAS FULL OF CHEERFUL LAUGHTER AND TALKING. EVERYONE WAS HAPPY BUT I DIDN' T FEEL THE NEED TO LAUGH. I WASN' T QUITE SURE ABOUT WHAT JUST HAPPENED. AND AS FAR AS I KNEW, NICHOLAS LOVED MY SISTER, SIYA. INFACT HE HAS HAD A RELATIONSHIP WITH ALMOST EVERY YOUNG BUSINESSWOMAN. IT WAS THE FIRST TIME HE SAW ME AND HE TRIED TO IGNORE ME. HE STORMED OUT OF THE ROOM. NO ONE NOTICED HIM LEAVING. EVEN I WASN' T FEELING WELL. THEREFORE, I ALSO LEFT THE ROOM FOLLOWED BY ANDREW. I CAME OUT FROM THE HOTEL. MANY GUESTS WERE CHATTING OUTSIDE HAPPILY. I WENT AWAY FROM THAT CROWD AND CAME NEAR A FOUNTAIN. I COLLAPSED ON A CHAIR. MY BROTHER PUT HIS HAND ON MY SHOULDER. HE SAID -
"YOU' RE LUCKY, SIS'. THAT GUY WILL TAKE GOOD CARE OF YOU. HE IS ALSO A BILLIONAIRE. BUT PLEASE DON' T FORGET TO CALL ME."
I STARED AT HIM. THERE WAS SOMETHING I KNEW BUT HE DIDN' T. "HE WON' T TAKE ANY CARE OF ME. HE THINKS I' M A BURDEN ON HIM. HE THINKS ME TO BE THE WORST PART OF HIS LIFE."
"HUH?"
"DO YOU WANT TO KNOW? HE HAS FUCKED EACH AND EVERY YOUNG BUSINESSWOMAN I KNOW. AND HE LOVES SIYA."
"ARE YOU KIDDING?" ANDREW WAS STUNNED. HE SAT ON A CHAIR BESIDE ME. "WELL I DON' T THINK HE DID ANYTHING WRONG. EVERY MAN HAS GIRL - FRIENDS. YOU ALSO HAD MANY BOY - FRIENDS. YOU BROKE UP WITH THEM BECAUSE YOU GOT BORED OF THEM. BUT I DIDN' T KNOW THAT HE LOVED SIYA. HE' LL FORGET HER SOON." HE SMILED AT ME. "TAKE YOUR TIME. I' M GOING. I' LL CHECK WHAT FATHER IS DOING."
I BURIED MY FACE IN MY HANDS, TRYING TO HIDE MY TEARS. I SAT THERE FOR A FEW MINUTES AND SAID TO MYSELF -
"LINDA, YOU CAN' T JUST SIT HERE AND KEEP THINKING NEGATIVE. YOU HAVE TO GO AND FACE OTHERS. YOU NEED TO TALK TO NICHOLAS. IF HE SAYS SOMETHING TO YOU THEN YOU' LL ALSO GIVE HIM A BEFITTING REPLY." SHE GOT UP AND WALKED TOWARDS HER SECRETARY, NYRA. SHE WAS DANCING TO THE MUSIC. AS SOON AS SHE SAW ME SHE STOPPED AND CAME TO ME.
"WHAT HAPPENED? WHY ARE YOU SO DOWN?" SHE ASKED.
"WHAT DO I TELL YOU?" I TALKED TO HER FOR SOME TIME. THEN I TURNED TO LEAVE BUT BUMPED INTO SOMEONE. SHIT. IT WAS NICHOLAS. HE DIDN' T LOOK HAPPY TO SEE ME.
