Impossible love

He's not my blood

Abena's Pov

" What do you wanna eat" Zayn and I were cuddled on the couch watching Nickelodeon. My favorite television station. Well I watched it mostly because of  my crush Jace Norman. Zayn didn't like it when I shouted anytime I saw him.

He was trying to get my mind of him by asking about food.

" How about spaghetti?" My favorite. He smiled and nodded.

He got up to go , leaving me drooling over Jace. Not that I didn't like Zayn ...heck I adored and loved him but Jace was someone I just wanted to see.

I loud bang on the door startled.
" Gyimi3 b3n no-no" I mumbled to myself in my native language meaning' which idiot is that' I got up to open the door already braci g my self for the insult I will give to the person.

The door flung open and Ryan walked in. Yes! The idiot.

" How could you choose you player boyfriend over your family"he slamming out and I chuckled.

" So you couldn't get anyone to harass or touch???" I asked him and he frowned. Zayn came out from the kitchen. His forehead was dabbed in tiny rivulets of sweat and he had this cute face on. Gosh! The guy was perfect.

" What the hell are you doing here,banging my door like an idiot" Zayn shouted at him but Ryan ignored him.

" You are coming with me right me now" He came over and gripped my wrist. I struggled against his grip. Zayn came closer and pushed him off.

" How can you this to your own sister,have you no respect or even shame" Zayn was fuming now ..I stood behind him.

" I'm tired of you guys controlling me......as my brother you should be there for me bit you choose to be a horny freak instead" I cried out.

" Fuck!!! I'm not your brother Rachael....I'm not....I love you in a different way ..I can't help that"

Okay so what!!!!!!!

Ryan is not my real brother.

" What do you mean by that?" I stammered.

" Mum can explain....I'm not talking anymore...just come with me .... Now that you know...I'll marry...I'll do anything for you"
My urge to not slap him failed as I went over to him and hit him across the cheeks.

How do I know of he was lying. I needed to talk to my mom.
" Get him out of here,Zayn" Zayn nodded and called out his security guards to come for Ryan .

" Mark my words, I'll get you Rachael"

I sighed. How come Ryan wasn't my brother. Was he lying to me??. My mom could explain this. I checked the time. I knew that by this time my Dad will be at work and she would be at home.

"Will you take me to my mom?" I asked Zayn sadly.
" Anything for you babe" he said as he pecked my lips and smiled at me .

***

My mom was at home. She almost cried when she saw me outside but knowing how she was always speechless in front of my Dad made me angry with her so I showed no emotions.

" Is Ryan my brother?" I went straight to the point. No more beating around the bush. Her eyes widened at that revelation.

" Answer me" I screamed and Zayn put a hand on my shoulder.

My mom hesitated for moment before speaking up.

I knew someday Rachael would find out but not in an angry way.

I adjusted my dress as I prepared myself for my speech.

flashback

I didn't plan on marrying Carl. Just like the tribe I come from,it was an arranged marriage.

Carl's family was rich and mine were just average. I realized he didn't want to marry me as much I didn't. But our fates were sealed and marrying any other partner would lead to very bad consequences.

I braced myself for the marriage and decided to be a good wife. Carl prevented me from having any say in the house. He always controlled me and so I was always quiet and followed his lead.

I couldn't go against his orders because he would send me back to my parents who will disown me that instant.

The real trouble started when I became pregnant and was about to give birth.

Carl wanted a boy but as we couldn't predict fate,I gave birth to a girl. He was furious, threatened to even kill me.

He never held Rachael once. Till one day he brought a child home as our new son. We named him Ryan even though he already had a name. He was from an orphanage.

He didn't like Rachael but showered his love only on Ryan who wasn't his son.

He treated Rachael like she was some trash even though she sometimes overlooked it.

I watched her grow up but couldn't utter a word to save her.

End of flashback.

Ryan wasn't my brother, that's why he was acting like that. I stared at my mom in pity as she relived her most painful moment to me. I came out wrong, that's why my Dad didn't want me.

I moved to sit by her and held her.

" Mom,what are you waiting for, speak for yourself. You are educated now, you own companies too aside from Dad's. We couldn't live together,don't let him control you" I advised and she burst into loud sobs.

I hated men who were control freaks. I hated men who thought they could walk over you anytime they want and I hated men who treated women like nothing.

" I've done all I can, Speak for yourself before you become Noth in his eyes. Has he ever told you that he loves you??... please you are too young for such nonsense"

I kissed her forehead , grabbing Zayn and left with him.

Come to think of it,I never heard my mom and my Dad exchanged words,they never went out on a date,he never even told her a kind word...all because those idiotic laws about arranged marriage still existed in Ghana"

Now I had to deal with Ryan.
