'Beep beep'

I search my phone sleepily and turn off the alarm. Peeking from one eye, I I see that it's six am already. The sun rays cast along the floor of my bedroom and dust mites dance in them. Turning around, I kiss my boyfriend then watch his face, completely peaceful and deep in sweet slumber.

I quickly shower and put on my uniform for work which consists of white shirt, black suit pant and black heels. I work as a bartender in Lush, chain of five star hotels and restaurants.

My phone pings, alerting me there is a message from someone. I walk over to bedside table and pick up my phone, unlocking it and see Navea, my bestfriend alerting me that she is outside of my house.

"Um.. 'Morning babe." My boyfriend, Ty, greets me.

"Good morning." I say back and kiss him.

"Ready so early? Oh shit! It's seven already?!" He says.

"Yes. And Nave is already outside. I'll send her in and intruct her what to do. You get ready before you miss your flight." I kiss him for the last time and grab my handbag and leave for work.

"Hey Nave! Good morning baby." I hug my bestfriend. She kisses my cheek and hug me back.

"So Ty just got up. He will be in the shower now. Go and see the house then show him the plans you have made. You have the drawings right? Okay, go. Bye." I hug and kiss her cheek.

I unlock my car, get in and drive to work.

*********************************

I never do makeup and come to work, it just gets spoiled by dirt and pollution. I finished putting on liner and mascara. I grab my maroon shade lipstick and apply a thin layer on my lips. Its dark and make me look kinda goth, just what I want.

"Hey!" My co worker and second bestfriend hugs me from behind.

"Hi. Why so cheery this morning?" I ask when I see a smile stuck on her lips.

"Oh, you haven't heard? Today we work for four hours only." She informs me.

"Why?"

"There is some private party here at 1 o'clock and they have prohibited alcohol. So we gonna leave early!" She announces and twirl around. I giggle at her childlike excitement.

Tabitha is my not likely bestfriend. Not likely, well because when I started working here, she used to order me around, she being a senior to me. I hated when she made me clean the drinks spilled on floor or made me wash the glasses and all.

But after sometime I realised, she was just like me. She is also a chain smoker, loves to drink and party. We got along pretty good then.

I bring myself back to the present and touch up my hair one last time before going to the bar. It's the only place where I enjoy myself the most.

***********************************

I drive back home from work. Me and my friends at work have decided to watch a movie in the evening and go to dinner at this new Indian restaurant. I informed them I'll change my clothes meet them directly at the mall.

I live in a luxury duplex apartment. It was owned by a wealthy man who years later lost all his money and decided to rent out his house individually. The lower half is occupied by a single mom who lives with her daughter. The upper half and terrace are owned by me. My boyfriend has been living here for over two years now. That's the reason why Navea came, she is an architect and I gave her the contract to redesign my home before we plan to get married.

I think I saw Navea's car but it might be someone else's. She must be at college now, she have finals going on and its her last year there.

I unlock my door and walk inside. I hang my overcoat on the rack beside me and remove my heels as I walk towards the sofa.

I throw my bag on it and go to sit when I hear noises in the house. For a second I freeze, thinking there might a burglar. Then I hear them again, this time it sounds clear. I follow the noise and realise it is coming from my bedroom. I stand behind the door, heart pounding and hear it again.

Moan. I hear moan coming from inside. I cannot fathom what is happening inside and push the door open.

I see a girl, definitely naked, moving up and down on what looks like bed. When she leans down, I see a human body there. Then she throws her head back and shocks me. Navea is the naked girl.

What I see next leaves me speechless. Navea is turned around so that she is under and a guy is hovering her.

I can recognise him from just his breathing. He is the other half of my heart and soul. And right now, he is tearing them both into million little pieces which can never be put together again.

My boyfriend, having sex with my best friend in the whole wide world..
