The day went by faster than usual and hours became days. Before she could understand what was going on, it was Friday evening and her sister was back. It was almost eleven in the middle of the night when her phone rang. She was already asleep. She looked at the caller’s ID. It was Brie. What the hell did she want now? She picked it up and answered the phone
“Hey”
“Hello,” Brie said.Wanda could tell that she had been crying but to an extent, she wasn’t moved and she didn’t care
“What can I help you with?”
“I want to call off the wedding”
“You have to be kidding me. The wedding is in less than eight hours and you want to call it off? Are you kidding me?”
“I don’t think I can pull through with this!”
“You can and you will. What the hell did even go wrong with the both of you?”
“He is cheating”
“Ken is cheating? With who?”
“I don’t know. I don’t freaking know but he has been secretive with me and there’s this number that has been calling him so frequently and I picked it up and heard a girl’s voice last night and when I confronted him this evening, he walked out on me and I went by his house to tell him that I was done and I found this girl in his house. She said he wasn’t back home from work and I asked her who she was and she slammed the door in my face!”
“Can you just calm the hell down and let me call him so I can talk to him and ask him what is going on because the Ken I know wouldn’t cheat on anybody not to talk of you”
“Alright”
“I would call you back. Just hold on”Wanda said and she hung up. She sighed, what the hell was Ken doing? This was unlike him. She called him several times, but he wasn’t picking up. She went down the stairs and knocked on her sister’s door. She hoped she was still up and she was. Helen opened the door and came out of the room. She looked at Wanda and she could tell that something was wrong with her. She pulled her into a hug and kissed her hair. Wanda knew that she was going to be okay. She knew that Ken had an explanation for everything.
“What’s wrong?”
“It is Ken”Wanda said as she narrated the entire story to her elder sister
“It is so unlike him” Helen concluded
“He is not picking up his phone. That’s why I need your help”
“You want me to track his phone”
“Yes, I do. The CIA didn’t hire a hacker because they felt like it. It is because you are equally as good at what you do so please just track his phone so I can go talk to him”
“Tonight? It’s dark out there”
“I would be fine, I promise”
“Alright. Let me get my laptop”She said and she entered into the rooms and came back out almost immediately. They went to the living room. His location pinged at a place she knew so well. The house of one of his friends. One friend she increasingly despised right from when they were in high school because not only did he try to kiss her forcefully which happened more than once, but he was also known for his numerous whoring and flirting and this was something that she increasingly despised. He was a cool guy and maybe she would have considered getting in a relationship with him if he stopped his outrageous flirting. Helen looked at her because Helen knew how much she hated him as a person
“Are you really sure that you want to do this?”
“Yes, I am. Sides, who the hell is going to get him if I don’t?”
“Call me when you find him. He has a lot of explanation to do!”
“Yes ma’am,” Wanda said to her eldest sisterShe went up to her room to change. She wore a sweatshirt and a jean short before grabbing her keys and getting the phone. Her mind begged her to call Dylan so he can go with her since it was pretty dark but she decided not to. He probably had a long day and was tired already. She wasn’t going to bother him with her family’s drama. She got into her car, pulled up the windows, and locked the doors. She wished right about now that she owned a gun. She drove with speed and headed to Riley’s house. She probably wasn’t going to be shocked if Riley ended up being Ken’s best man. That was one of the reasons why she had refused to be the maid of honor, just because Riley was going to be Ken’s best man. He and Ken have been best of friends since she could remember. She didn’t understand why Ken was so into Riley. She disliked him. She got there about an hour later and rang the doorbell. The house was loud and she doubted if they were going to hear the doorbell ring. She rang it again and pulled out her phone. She dialed her brother’s number and the door opened. It was Riley
“I was definitely not expecting to see you until the wedding. To what do I owe this surprise?”
“I’m here for Ken”
“Oh, you’re not his mama”
“And you’re not his family. I’m going to ask you one more time before I call the police and report you for abduction. Where the hell is my brother?”
“He’s up in a room. You shouldn’t go in there though. He might be naked”
“I really don’t care”She said as she went in and went straight for the stairs. It wasn’t the first time she had come here. She opened the door and found her brother, on his laptop, watching a movie. He had headphones on. She rolled her eyes
