Met you before sunset

Chapter 2

Friday night}

Yesterday I received an invitation from the Tex family he is celebrating the 30th anniversary of their company, I am a little stressed.

This is going to be my first time out as Madison Sinclair the CEO of Sinclair company, I received from my secretary that my dear half sister Fiona would be attending and I bet she won't be alone.

I can't wait to tell her what I think of her! I decide to wear a long black dress, I love long dresses.

I put on black nail polish, I didn't tie my hair up, I like my hair to be loose.

The only time I tie it up is when I go to work.

I put on my makeup and look at myself in the mirror one last time, thanks to the mirror, I know I'm beautiful and ready to face the outside world.

{A little later.}

I arrive in front of the Tex family's mansion, their mansion is really beautiful, you can see that it has been there for generations.

I followed the butler to the party room where several guests were talking to each other and others were dancing. I followed the butler to the party room, where several guests talked to each other and others danced.

It's been a long time since I've been to this kind of party, I don't really feel comfortable with it.

When the bartender puts my drink on the counter, I take it and move towards a free table, I prefer to sit down.

I think I'll stay there all evening.

I take a sip of my cocktail and look at the crowd of people walking past me.

I look towards the windows, I see a garden, I get up to go to the garden, I want some fresh air.

Before arriving at the window, I meet two familiar people.

Fiona and Hugo together, I see that she doesn't mind having betrayed me.

I thought that I did not crack, I left as fast as possible to go to sit on a bench the tears started to run on my cheek.

I thought I was alone when I heard a voice next to me.

- Are you okay?

When I turn around, I see a man leaning against the garden fence.

I quickly wipe away my tears and answer.

- Yes, everything is fine, I thought I was alone.

- If you want I can leave you?

I don't feel like being alone right now, I could use some company.

- No, it's not. You can stay.

- May I sit down?

This man is really polite.

- Yes, of course.

When the man was sitting next to me I could see him more closely.

He had broad shoulders, black hair, brown eyes and a three-day beard.

Who can be this man? I look ahead so he doesn't realize I'm looking at him, I wonder what his name is.

- I don't want to sound rude, but why were you crying? I must be really pitiful, for a stranger to ask me why I'm crying.

- It's nothing serious.

- you're sure.

Can you keep a secret?

Anyway, after the party, our paths won't cross again.
