Should I choose?

Chapter Twenty

Hellow ma people, how is shit going....?

Elly's POV

I was laying on my bed staring at nothing in particular. I cried the entire night and didn't know what to do. I am NOT gay, that's for sure. Why then did I kiss Dash? Why do I feel like I miss Silas? What's happening to me? Why did I get a boner thinking of Dash and his stupid kiss? Who do I talk to about this? As much as I wanted someone to talk to, I didn't know who. I was so scared to even leave my room. What if somebody sees me and see through me that I kissed a guy? What will my dad say if he finds out?

I walked downstairs and saw my mom and dad cuddling watching a movie. I needed a distraction. I walked to the kitchen and took an apple. I wasn't in appetite for anything.

"Hi buddy how was your night?" My dad asked sitting up straight. Otto walked to the living room and sat on the sofa next to mother.

"Good, weren't you supposed to be at work?" I asked sitting next to Otto. He laid back keeping his head on my lap and stared at my face.

"Yeah I have to go. Bye mi amor." He said and placed a kiss on mother's forehead. He walked to his room and mother stared at me surprised that I could even sit anywhere near her.

"You don't look like you had enough sleep." Otto voice in a concerned voice. I smiled at him and leaned into the sofa watching whatever the hell was up there.

The day went too slow and it really wasn't helping. I was now seated at the garden drowning in my own thoughts when someone tapped me.

"You are lost in thoughts." Mother said. She sat besides me with a little smile and I rolled my eyes at that.

"Why do you care?" I shot back but didn't make a move to walk away. She raised her hand to touch me but thought it through.

"You wanna hear a story?" She asked her small smile intact.

"Whatever." I said. I really needed a distraction and she seemed like she was a good deal.

"There was once a neurosurgeon. A great one indeed, she was famous because of her work and big heart. She then fell in love with a business man of Apple Inc. They loved each other like never in this world. They were all the media talked about. Their life was like a series, everything they did was displayed for the world to see and they weren't against it. It made them want to perfect their relationship and be together. And just like that, the guy proposed and they got married." She narrated with a grin on her face. She had dreamy eyes and I could tell that was the best moments of her life.

"The story is about you, right?" I asked. I was now keen, I wanted to know this woman even though I didn't like her. Who knows she might also explain why she left me.

She nodded and continued. "Yeah it's me. Some time in my marriage and I got pregnant. We were both very happy to finally have a young one. Your father never left my side no matter what. When we went to check the babies we found out that we were having twins." She paused wiping her tears with the back of her hand. I didn't understand where this was heading to but I was curious.

"You had twins, how?"

She nodded again and continued. "We had twins. It was all over social media. Everyone was eagerly waiting to see the babies and I couldn't say less. We went for check ups together, shopping together and everything. Your father was always by my side and made me feel like the queen I was. I was kinda a doctor so I knew how to handle my situations well but your father wanted everything perfect and I let him take me to doctor for check ups. We didn't know that our happiness would be short lived-"

"Oops sorry, Elly can I have my wife for a second?" My dad asked before dragging mother with him.

I didn't know how I felt about the little revelation but am sure as hell that I was confused. Mother had fucking twins how? Do I have some other siblings? And if yes, where are they? Why did she left me and why didn't she bring the kids with her? Why did the media stop meddling in their business? I remember back when I was a kid some media guy was interrogating me on my way across the school hallway. When I came back and told my dad about it, he was so furious that he employed a bodyguard for me. Growing up I knew I didn't need him anymore since the media guy was in jail and nobody harrased me anymore so he gave the guy some other job.
