Some truth

I can't breathe, everything looks dark and my whole life everyone keeps telling me to trust, to love to feel and the moment I do he lies to me. I open up my heart for the first time and everything.... Why? ..he said he loved me he said..( tears starts to fall from my eyes) it's all lies and all fake there's no love , even if it is real it's not real for me, is this how my life will be ? . I will never be able to love completely it will always be like this my life , but I can't breakdown,not now not ever,I will get through this but I don't know how .( Mom comes into my room)
Honey what is going on why are you crying?( I hug her crying so much)
Mom..( I say sobbing) he lied to me he...hurt me
Oh honey, I'm so sorry. Victoriano made this decision without telling you and he is wrong for doing that , oh...my beautiful girl ( she cups my face ) it's okay
I'm heading out ( I wipe my tears and stand up)
Where are you going, it's 11:00pm
I'm ... I just need air.
I take the car and go to Ellie's house.
Hey.. are you okay... come in
Ellie can I stay over
Yea...yeah... Evie what's wrong? You look really bad
Victoriano lied to me Ellie, he is still getting married
Huh?? What are you talking about, he broke up with her a year ago
No.. no he did not, he has been engaged all this time and he was planning on marrying her without me knowing, Ellie,he ... He was making me the other woman, Ellie...I am the other woman ( she stares at me with tears in her eyes, and she hugs me )
Oh Evie... I'm Soo sorry
Why are you crying, I'm the one who is hurt?
Evie.. I.. why are you being so strong even like this .... That bastard I will kill him..my Yvette
Heyyy I'm okay , now you're making sad I'm supposed to be the comforted not the comforter.
Victoriano..he loves you I see it in his eyes, the way he talks to you and looks at you
But it's not strong enough.. Ellie love is stupid, it's weak and makes you foolish
Evie..
Don't even think about making me believe in it again..you and Zach are nice and all but leave me be...
Evie you don't have to bottle up your feelings..
I'm good, just let me be alone tonight...  Now go and sleep ( she gives me a sad smile and leaves the room)
My mind drifts back to the first kiss , the way the looked at me , he ... made me believe in something that I ..... But it's all useless now I might have feelings for him but it will go away. I am Yvette Ohemaa Boateng, my father's daughter, I will not let something like this break me ,even if it hurts like hell.
Two days later...
It's been two days and my stay at Ellie's has extended, we don't have school for a week so all I'm going to do is stay in bed....
Rise and shine!!!! Your saviour has arrived
Ellie what the hell!
Listen as your best friend I'm not gonna allow you to stay in bed and mope around, so we are going to do the breakup cry
The what what cry?( She pulls me to stand)
Listen to you are not dealing with the breakup as you should
So what are we doing huh?.. Listen to Adele?
Yeah!
Huh? I was being sarcastic
Well ... Come on let's watch a movie.
Ellie made us watch ' the fault in our stars ' with by the way she ended up crying more than I did, we sang almost all the songs on Adele's album and we ate ice cream....... She made me enjoy it
Ellie...thank you
There's no need. ..you know this is your first heartbreak...you need to celebrate it
You're really insane you know that?( She giggles)
When my first boyfriend broke up with me my dad told me to cry my eyes out andddd I burnt his bicycle.
Bicycle?? Ellie how old were you
13
Say what now?! You had a boyfriend at 13! My dad would kill me
Haha...I know you are being tough about this but I know you are hurt....we can burn his car you know?
Thanks for the offer but...I just want to forget him
Yeah but you live in the same house its not exactly going to be easy
He'll be getting married soon..I'm sure he will leave...
Evie...( I stand up )
Thanks..but I'm ...I have to go home.
I drove back home and Mom said everything to make me feel better but I just went into my room. I was on my bed then Victoriano entered
Can we talk?
How about no..
Yvette please hear me out
Okay I'll listen while you answer 3 questions, are you still engaged?
Ye. ....yes
Are you getting married for your hospital?
Yes
Did you ever think about how I'd feel ( he stood there and couldn't talk).
Get out Victoriano...
Please beautiful ( tears fell from his eyes)
Don't you ever call me that again.

Weeks came to pass I was getting better and Victoriano kept his distance, mom and I were working on some projects and Ellie kept comforting me. We were in the house and the door bell rang.. Victoriano went to open the door.
What are you doing here I told you not to come
Oh baby.. your fiancee is here this is how you great me?( I went to the living room and what I saw ..)
Al ....Alma?
You...you know her?( Victoriano asks)
Alma what is going on..ho..how are you his fiancee??
Yvette?( She looks at me surprised)wh..what are you doing here?
What am I doing here, what are you doing here
Yvette you know my fiancee?
Fiancee?( I lose my balance and almost fall , mom comes in , u can't believe my eyes and ears)she's my sister!!
What?!
Alma I need answers now!
You know I expected you to be dead, but since you are alive I'll burst your bubble dear sister..oh or should I say step sister
What ...Alma what ar....are you talking about?
Oh so( she begins to walk in circles around me) my mother planned on getting rid of you a long time ago ..you were in our way..
What in the world are you talking about! Do mom and dad know you are here?!.
Oh calm down sister...I'm going to tell you a story... You see a long time ago your father married my mother when you were already 3 , he was supposed to love all of us equally but the foolish love he had for your stupid mother descended to you ..mom found out that he made you the heir to all his money so we being do smart brought up this plan and made father believe that you were going to learn in the states buttt..you know the drill
She...left me here..wi.with nothing ( I was so shocked about everything, I was brought here to...oh my God)
Correcto , she hired some goons to kill you when you arrived, seems like you escaped them..we gave dad a nice well examined proof of your death, so Yvette..you are dead
So...mom is not my mo..mom?
Yeah..your real mother is probably somewhere well...I don't even know..but it seems you are just like her , you are the reason my fiancee doesn't want to marry me anymore..you are a slut just like herrrr( I landed a hot slap on her face, and begun to beat the hell out of her, Victoriano pulled me away from her)
You and your mother are monsters and I'll make you pay for this
Ohh..( she wipes the blood from her mouth) I'll get married to Victoriano and make your life hell
Oh no you won't be marrying me get out now! Leave Alma
No Victoriano I'll leave, I  can't stay in this house anymore
