OLIVIA I sat on top of the king-sized bed while waiting for Wilson to come out of the bathroom. I took a deep breath and looked at the bathroom door he entered. He looks like he has no intention of going out yet, so I got dressed first. After i got dressed,I sat on the bed again. I looked up as the bathroom door opened. I was swallowed. The only thing he was wearing was a red boxer shirt. He wipes his wet hair with a towel. My eyes dropped to his bare chest,a few drops of water dripping there. I averted my eyes as he walked towards me. “Uhm, Wilson.” What can I say? s**t! He took the clothes I had prepared for him. I prepared that while he is taking a bath. “Rest now, Olivia.” I hugged a pillow and got up from the bed. He raised an eyebrow. “Where are you going?” “In the living room. That’s where I’ll sleep.” O said so weakly. He pulled me closer to him until we were just a ruler away from each other. As my heartbeat quickened as I met his gaze. “Why? You’ll sleep here.” He released me and passed. I looked at him. “Where are you sleeping?” It stopped when I spoke. “I can handle myself.” He said as he remained behind me. Is he acting? My aunt and cousins are not here, there’s no point to act king and caring. I lowered the pillow and blanket I was holding on the bed and then stood up properly again. “Wilson,” this time, he turned to face me. His serious face remains. I stabilized my voice. “They’re not here. Stop acting like you’re flirting with me.” A corner of hood lifted. He showed me his demonic smile again. “Olivia, I cared for you because I need you and not the other way around. You remember my father’s will, right?” “Wilson, you’re not like this when we first met.” “When can I wreck the walls, build around you?” I couldn’t stop my voice from shaking. “You can’t. I won’t let you.” He said coldly and I lowered my head. All I could do was watch him walk out the door. I was horrified when he closed that loudly. I lay down on the bed and then covered my eyes. Maybe out of exhaustion drowsiness visited me immediately. When I opened my eyes, the darkness of the horizon opened up to me. But I could see a little because there was light outside. I stretched before standing up. I went to the bed mirror; I was amazed at the beauty of the surroundings. The moon went round and round and the stars shone brightly in the sky. The ocean glows under the moon.I felt relieved to see the beauty of it. My eyes went down on the shore of the sea there were people rejoicing. Maybe that was one of Aunt Felicia’s party. Suddenly I remembered that aunt Felicia invited us there. I immediately closed the curtain and then started getting dressed. I just put on shorts and a white sleeveless shirt and left the room. I slowly closed the door so that Wilson wouldn’t wake up. He was lying on the side bed. I entered the room again and picked up the blanket. I slowly closed the door and went to where Wilson was. I covered him, fortunately, he didn’t wake up. I sat in front of him then silently stared at his peaceful face. Now I just stare at Wilson like this. Only now did I find out that hood eyelashes are long. His red lips touched my lips earlier. I hope the day comes when you love me too. I was probably the happiest person when that happened. I smiled bitterly. It’s not bad if I ask, is it? I got up. I will never wake him again. I’ll just show auntie, I’ll just say that Wilson is fast asleep. He will understand me. Then I also want to forget now. It’s like I want to drink and get drunk. It’s like I want to experience how those who don’t care about the problem. I huddled with people to find them, Cassie. I saw him with…Nate. I took a deep breath before approaching them. Cassie smiled when he saw me approaching. “Cousin! Why is your hubby not present?” He out his arm around me. “Lover’s quarrel?” I shook my head then smiled. He’s asleep. I let him go first. Maybe later, he’ll be here.” “Okay! It’s a party!” He released me then took a woman walking in front of us on his shoulders. He dropped the beer on the table then took the woman to the dance floor. The woman didn’t even complain about what Cassie had done. I was shaken by what Cassie did. Boys are boys. I immediately saw Jessie; this woman was also dancing. He looked up while shouting. They seem to be enjoying it. I took a deep breath. Nate didn’t leave my side. “Do you want someone to talk to?” I heard Nate say. I looked at him.I was greeted by his chocolate eyes that when looked at you were so piercing. It is as if by the time you look into his eyes you have no choice but to obey his commands. “You know me, don’t you?” I said smiling. But I know he noticed it was fake. Nate and I also spent a few years together. I know he knows me very well when I have a problem. “But, there’s only one I want to talk to. Wine.” One of his eyebrows rose. “Your don’t drink, Olivia.” I laughed heartily. “How did you know? It’s been years, Nate Robinson.” “Olivia…” I raised one hand to stop him from saying anything. I bent down and then grabbed a beer from the cooler by his side. There are coolers scattered around. There’s not booth set up here because it’s an open area. My variety of wine inside. But I only chose the mild one. When I got there, I walked to a place where there weren’t many people. I have already found it. That’s not that far from where the party was taking place. When I found the right place, I sat on the sand. I felt the cold fine save on my thighs. I opened the beer and peacefully watched the waves. I want to forget. Even just for a moment. Just for a moment. I felt someone beside me. I didn’t look back at that because I knew it was Nate. “If I can’t stop you, I’ll just sympathize with you.” He said while also looking at the sea. All that could be heard was there less loud noise from the party. I sipped the wine I took, drawing the intense chisel down my throat. I almost coughed when I sucked on it. Eventually, I got used to that taste. When I thought, I was going to run out of that, I already felt dizzy. But I still can’t get Wilson out of my mind. Why? It is just my brain and the one that wants to forget. Not my heart. Nate understand me. I felt guilty that I hurt him. “Nate, I— can you—“ I took a deep breath and looked at him. “Forgive me.” He also turned to me. His handsomeness was further enhanced by the impact of the moonlight on hood face. “Why? Did you do something wrong to me?” I averted my gaze. How do I get started? It’s now or never. “That I broke our promise? I couldn’t wait for you.” “It’s okay. I think that’s my karma because I flirted with other women when I was over there. I was young and stupid. I want to apologize to you, but you’ve blocked me on almost every website that exists.” He took a deep breath. “Your existence is so precious to me, Olivia. I still love you. Olivia, if I could turn back time and not do those things, maybe we could still be together.” He moved close to me then his hands covered my face. I saw his eyes full of sadness again. “Me too, Nate. I wish I could love you back.” I hugged him tightly. My tears flowers as he hugged me back. I wish I could. NATE ROBINSON I caressed Olivia’s cheek. She laid on the sand while her head rested on my laps so I could freely observe her angelic face. I know her twin sister, Sophie. They’re not the same even though they are twins. You can read in their aura who Olivia and Sophie are. Sophie loves to wear vulgar clothes, her face is also bold as if people have always been so small. Olivia on the other hand, wore sensible clothes, and there was no trace of courage on her face. If you look at Olivia, she looks like a lost puppy in the jungle. It’s like when you touch her she’s going to cry. She’s so fragile. You can also see how much she loves her father even though he treated her that way. During the time i was with Olivia, I could only see the joy in her eyes when her aunt, aunt Felicia praised her or when she touched Sophie’s toy given to her by her dad. I bent down then and kissed her on the forehead. “Me too, babe. I wish you could love me back.” I closed my eyes. Even though we were still in high school, I made up my mind that she was the woman I would love to marry. And when I get back here, I’ll claim her again. I took a deep breath and then started. I lowered my gaze to Olivia as she moved and tilted.I arranged the hair that covered her face. I turned pale when I noticed the reddish mark on her neck. s**t! Am I too late?! “Get your hands off my wife, Robinson!” I turned to the person who possessed that authoritative voice. I saw Wilson approaching our place. He walked fast and glared at me. I slowly raised Olivia head and then lowered it to the scarf I rolled up to be a pillow. When I got up, Wilson pulled over the collar of my dress. His face is grim. “What do you think you’re doing to my wife?!” Wife? The nerve! He wasn’t even wearing their wedding ring. While Olivia was always wearing hers. I smiled foolishly. “I hope Olivia heard how you called her your wife. I think she will be happy to hear that.” “What do you want to convey? That she’s not happy with me?” I rubbed both my hands on my Jean shorts. “Do I still have to respond to that, Smith? I don’t think so. You already know the answer.” If Olivia was happy with him, she wouldn’t be drinking alcohol just to forget. If Olivia is happy with with, she will show her real smile not the fake one. “You don’t know, Robinson. You don’t know if…” “I don’t need to know anymore, Smith. I met Olivia first.” I cut him off. I looked at Olivia as she slept peacefully. “I can see the agony on her face. I just have to wait for the time she gets tired of you. He has no right to hurt the woman I love so dearly. We exchanged sharp glances with each other. We both clenched our fists. I will never let Olivia be sad again. I love the woman he treats like nothing. Olivia is kind, she deserves someone who will never hurt her. I saw Cassie and Jessie approached us and the guests are watching. We have already attracted a lot of attention. Cassie stood between me and Wilson. “Get away from each other. Let’s not ruin mama’s party.” Wilson ignored what Cassie said. He just walked past me and picked Olivia. I must be the one doing that to Olivia. I should be Olivia husband now. I kept myself from attacking Wilson because I knew that if I did that and she found out that I did, she would hate me. I have sacrifices a lot for her. All I could do now was look at them while Wilson was scooping her and walked towards the hotel.I felt Cassie have help my shoulder. WILSON SMITH I immediately entered the elevator when it opened. I looked at the woman I was carrying today. I took a deep breath.I no longer knew what I would do to get. I looked up and observed the number change at the top of the elevator. I don’t know but, I want her in my arms. “Wilson…” she growled. It was as if some warm have had caressed my heart. “I… love… you…” I shouldn’t feel it. I hate this woman. What else should I do just to get rid of how she feels about me? All I want is for get to hate me too, I want her to lose her love for me. I love Sophie. She’s the only one I take seriously like this so I can’t accept that she left me just like that. It would have been okay even if she just left me when we got married or ran away, but damn, why does she have to tie me to her twin sister. What I don’t understand is that I feel annoyed when Olivia is with someone else. It’s like I want to kill any man that approaches her. I kissed her on the forehead. “My walls already have a c***k because of you, Olivia.”
