Twisted

Confess

They say people always hit your life at the perfect timing but I guess my time is full of surprises and I ain't willing to get into another battle.

"Aaron! What're you doing here?" I enlarged my eyes in amazement.

Jacob didn't shake my hand and turned to see who the fuck is Aaron.

"Surprise, Hel!!" He grinned, he was carrying his suitcase and a bunch of different kinds of chocolates.

I chuckled. It's him!

"Ron!! I missed you, bruh!" I hanged myself between his arms, he hugged me intensely.

My eyes witted my face with little tears. I breathed in relief as I needed him. Desirfully, painfully I needed him right here next to me, and how lucky I'm having him now!

"You seem pleasant by seeing me" He wiped the tears with a wide smile on his face.

"Is he your brother?" Jacob asked and he weirdly looks at me.

"In-law, her brother-in-law" Ron explained.

Jacob nodded.

I stood next to Jacob to introduce them to each other.

"This is my childhood best friend, Aaron McMillian. He is my older sister's husband too" I smiled.

"Nice to meet you, Mr. McMillian" Jacob calmly responded.

"And this should be L-" Before Aaron can say Louis's name I cut it roughly.

"Jacob, Jacob Ryder. Ron" I shouted involuntarily while saying his name.

Jacob and Aaron stared at me puzzled by my response.

"Let's celebrate your arrival, Ron. Isn't it Jacob?"

"But you said-" He whispered.

"Isn't it Jacob?" I tightened my jaw.

"You owe me" He playfully said.

"Dammit! Let's go" I whispered.

"Is everything okay, Hel?" Ron asked.

"We were just wondering where the place we would take you to," I said.

"I know a new place, you'll like it" Jacob directed his words to Aaron.

"I hope it's a good place, Ryder!" I murmured.

"Just let me take those things to your apartment first" He calmly said.

"Right," I grinned nervously.

God! Help us!!

----------------

I guess I'll be living in vain those days as much as I want Ron near me but I'm so confused, I feel like I disappointed him without letting him even know that.

"Thank you" I took my drink and headed to our table. Jacob took us to a bar! I'll slaughter him if I got the chance. I noticed Ron and Jacob were humming.

"Is everything okay?" I asked in concern.

"Yeah, just I and Jacob are chatting" Ron calmed me with his smile.

I sat on my chair. The awkwardness is spreading all over the place and I can care less about it.

Did Aaron feel me? Or something happened with Nate? Where is my baby Ethan?

Wait Helen you'll figure it out.

While I was rolling my eyes all over the place, I glimpsed Roman, Celine, Lela, and Rathod standing around their table. Antoine wasn't there. My heart ached, seeing them all together as one day I was with them but it wasn't my fault never it was and never will be.
