Treachery Affair

Staring at the video playing on the screen of the laptop, she freeze on the bed. For two minutes, she try to understand what’s happening, but everything seem to not be coming through. Her heartbeat increase as she stare at the unbelievable video. She squint her eyes and bat them many times to be sure of what’s she’s seeing, and it seems like her eyes aren’t deceiving her. In the video, a young man is dress in black outfit and has a face cap on. The man is trying to set a timed bomb somewhere in a secluded place in the mansion. Looking close at the mansion, it turns out to be the mansion they used to live in.

She gulp down the lump in her throat, trying all she can not to tear her gaze from the video. She watch as the man, who have no idea that a CCTV camera is hidden there, finally get done with setting the bomb and walk away. The man is nobody, other than Jayden Clinton. Her very own boyfriend. For five minutes, she sit frozen on the bed as drop of tears slid down her cheeks. Her heart wrench in pain and she slowly clench her fists.

‘You’re a traitor!’ Her parent’s words echos in her head. Now she can understand what they meant by that… she has been dating the man that took away her family and turned her into another person. Yes, he has always been the genesis of her pain. Just the thoughts of it keeps driving her to the edge of craziness.

Thinking about all the crazy things they’ve done together, the love she has developed for him… it hurts deeply.

“Argh!” She scream at the top of her voice as she grab the laptop and throw it across the room, collapsing to her knees afterwards. Who would’ve ever thought that the man she has been having an affair with, is the same man she has been seeking vengeance on for the past years. Gathering all the information together, she now understands everything. Richmond has nothing to do with the death of her family, but she’s still clueless of the relationship between him and her family though.

Her phone suddenly rings, and she lazily reach out to it on the bed. It’s Samir calling. She lazily slide the answer button and hold the phone to her ear, while staring into space.

“I guess you have found out the truth now,” Even if she can’t see him, she already imagine the smirk he’ll have on his face while saying that, and it keeps hurting her.

“Why? Why didn’t you tell me all along? Why did you send me down here, knowing something like this is hidden? Why didn’t you tell me all these while?” More tears trickle down her cheeks as she tighten her grip around the phone. Her heart is bleeding and she’s in so much pain. Maybe she wouldn’t have been this pained if she had nothing intimate with him, but to think that she has been sleeping with this same man for all these time and have fallen deeply in love with him, hurts her heart deeply.

“I have my reason. Don’t try something stupid,” he whispers and she grit her teeth. She’s going to grab her gun and shoot that bastard in the head as soon as he comes back from work. She won’t spare him for all the pains he had caused her. Yeah, she knows it won’t take her pain away, or wipe all the sad memories away, but seeing his face will only get things worsen.

“I’m going to kill him, and that’s it,” without waiting to hear what else he has to say, she end the call and throw her phone on the bed. Running her fingers through her hair, more tears keeps flooding down her cheeks. She wants to stop thinking about this and look for the way forward, she wants to push all the bad memories at the back of her mind and focus on how to make him pay for everything, but the image of everything keeps popping up in her head and making things worse.This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.

Like a dream, her memories starts flooding in, everything starts playing in her head, as though it’s happening now.

That night she was in her room, getting dressed for the event when her sister had walked in, having a wild smile on her face.

“Emily…” She had called excitedly, hugging her sister she hasn’t seen in a while.

“Alexa baby, I have missed you so much,” the smile on Emily’s face that day, is what she can never forget.

“Did you come with little nephew? How’s Richmond?” She had asked her sister.

“No. Richmond is with Nelson. He had something to take care of back at home. He said that he’ll join us later with Nelson,” she had replied her that day. But how could she not have known about these all this while? How could she have forgotten her nephew that she loved so much? How could she have forgotten her sister’s husband that was also her best friend then? How could she have been so wicked to the extent of framing him up and tried to kill him all these while?

Recalling how her sister had screamed that night, how her dad and mom were trying to save them, she can only clutch her hair tightly, trying to pull them off with full force. The pain is just too much to bear. They were inside the room when the fire explosion occurred, her sister tried to save her, but she ended up drowning in the fire along with her parents. That was all she remember, she inhaled too much smoke and suffered burns that she passed out.

“You’re a monster… you tried to kill your friend… no! I’m not! Jay is the monster… yes, he is…” She burst into tears, ruffling her hair crazily.

“You’ll pay for this, Jay. That’s a promise,” she stare into space. Her eyes are red and puffy…
