Anaya and Andrew was driving home. None of them were talking. Anaya looked outside of the window playing the meeting with Natalie again in her head.
Flashback..
After Andrew introduced Anaya to Natalie he then was about to walked past her with Anaya in his embrace. But Natalie stopped him by grabbing his suit.
"Don't feel shy in front of your fiance it doesn't suit you. Everyone in the university knew about our relationship. Don't you think that your would be wife has the right to know." then looker at Anaya and with a evil smile said to her, "Congratulations on the engagement. Hope you know how to cool him down in bed. You know how aggressive he became in bed when he's aroused". She then winked at her. She then put a card in Andrew's suit pocket and whispered in his ear. "This is my visiting card. Your fiance looks so immature if she can't impress you then call me anytime." Her whisper was loud enough for Anaya to hear it. Then she entered the restaurant leaving the couple there.
After exiting the restaurant Andrew threw out the card into the dustbin. Then took Anaya to his car.
End of flashback.
They reached their home. Anaya removed her seatbelt and was about to get down from the car when Andrew stopped her by holding her hand. She looked at him with questioning eyes.
"Don't take her words at heart. She's not a good person to talk to or to give importance." he said.
"So she was lying?"
"No she wasn't lying. But it's all in the past. And I told you I won't break the contract" he said.
Anaya didn't reply to him she just entered the house.
Someone hugged Anaya from her behind with force when she entered her room. Anaya became so scared that she screamed.
"Aaaaaahhhhhh"
"Stop screaming b***h. You are making my eardrums burst." Amy said from her back.
"Amy is that you?"
Anaya was so happy to see Amy that she started crying while hugging her.
Andrew came rushing to Anaya's room hearing her scream. When he saw her with tears he pulled her closer and wiped her tears.
"What happened why did you scream?" he asked affectionately.
"Ahem ahem" Amy cleared her throat. Andrew looked at her.
"I wanted to surprise her but she got scared. Sorry for scaring your fiance" she explained for Anaya. Then hugged Andrew from the side.
"Long time no see Andrew Black. But you have become more handsome." she poked him while teasing. Three of them went the same school being junior Amy knew Andrew closely because of Anaya. He always came to Anaya's house with his mom.
"You have also became beautiful Amy." Andrew said her without any emotion. He never noticed her as any important person.
"Don't be so rude Andrew or I won't let you marry my best friend" Amy said like a spoiled child hiding her toys. She pulled Anaya away from Andrew. Andrew didn't say anything he looked one last time at Anaya and left the room.
Anaya and Amy were laying on Anaya's bed for three hours. Anaya explained her everything except for the contract as it is top secret. Amy was listening everything like a good student. Then she sat up from laying on the bed and get down.
"It's getting late I have to go now. But I will come tomorrow to take you for shopping." she told Anaya while fixing her hair and touch up her make up.
"I'm not sure I have to asked to ma if I can go out?" replied Anaya.
"I already talked with aunt Amanda and she agreed. I have to buy my bride's maid dress you know. Don't make any more excuses"
"Ok I surrender" Anaya put her both hands on the air and replied to her. Amy hugged her and left.
The next day Anaya got ready by 10am as Amy told her. She choose a white crop top and a high waist faded jeans with sneakers. As they are going to shopping and Amy like to shop a lot she didn't want to pressure her legs by wearing heels. Amy came 30 minutes past 10 am. Andrew appointed a chauffeur and a car for Anaya so they are traveling by that car.
They went to the city mall.
At first they went inside of a branded boutique to choose Amy's bride's maid dress. She tried about 10 dress but couldn't decide which one to buy. At last Anaya told her to take the baby pink bodycone gown as it goes well with her white wedding dress. Then they went for other shopping. While they were going for a jewelry shop Amy bumped with someone and all her shopping bags fell on the floor.
"Are you f**king blind?" Amy shouted in anger.
"I'm not blind I think you are blind." said the other person. Her voice seemed known to Anaya. She looked at the girl sitting on the floor carefully and she was right. It was her cousin Tina. She extended her hand to help her. Seeing a hand was extended towards her, Tina looked at the owner of hand and saw Anaya. She slapped away her hand and got up by her own.
"Are you hurt Tina" asked Anaya with care.
"You wish" Tina replied violently.
Amy gathered all her shopping bags and got up she then went near Anaya pulled her with her.
"Let's go Anaya. Don't waste your time on roadside people." she said to Anaya.
"Excuse me did you just called me roadside people?" replied Tina while putting her both hands on her waist.
"Yes I did. This is who you are"
"Just wait for my dad to hear that you little wh**e."
"Your dad can't do anything to me. You guys are living your life from Anaya's money. Just wait for her to take them away then you will be a roadside dog." Amy replied to Tina.
"So you are spreading this words against your own family. I am going to tell dady how fake your politeness is. You deserve a husband like Viktor." Tina spoke to Anaya. Then was about to slap Anaya when her hand was stopped in the air. The three of them looked at the man standing between Anaya and Tina. He was an well built man with 6 feet height and wearing a stylish leather jacket and jeans.
" How dare you to stop me? I was teaching my little cousin some manners." said Tina in anger.
"Oh so now she's your cousin? Then why didn't she invite any of you in her marriage, huh?" Said Amy.
" You are getting married Anaya? To whom? " Tina was shocked to hear that.
" Yes she's getting married. You and your scumbag family tried your best to ruin her life but see now she's marrying the most eligible bachelor of the country, Andrew Black."
"Huh! you are getting married with Andrew? I heard he changed women every week. When he became bored with you let me know I will be happy to help him out with his boredom." Tina said while looking at Anaya. Both Anaya and the man was just looking at Tina and Amy as they were arguing. At last the man burg into the two women.
"Miss you can solve your family problems at your home not in my mall. Security please escort this lady out." said the man in leather jacket. Two security man came and took Mia from there.
"Thanks Sam for helping." said Amy.
"Anything for Anaya." he replied flirtiously looking at Anaya. Amy nudged Anaya by her elbow to say something.
"Hey Sam how are you doing?" said Anaya.
"Life was going as always then suddenly you appeared and eventually everything became so beautiful just like you." he flirted with Anaya. Anaya blushed a little.
"Stop flirting with her. She's out of reach now. She's getting married day after tomorrow." replied Amy while laughing at him.
"Don't make fun of me Amy. No one knows what is going to be in the future. So I can try till the last moment. Who knows may be Anaya would left her fiance and marry me."
"In your dream. Why would she leave Andrew and choose you?"
"Forget it. You always refused my approaches now you are getting married so can we be friends now?" with this he extended his hand towards Anaya. Anaya thought for a while and took his hand.
"Ok we are friends" she replied after shaking hands with him. Anaya was taking back her hand when Sam hold it tight. Anaya looked back at his hand first then to his face questioningly.
"You said we are friends and you didn't give me any treat for your engagement. Let me invite you to lunch we will celebrate our friendship also your engagement." he proposed still holding her hand. Anaya was hesitant to accept his lunch offer. But amy burge in.
"Let's go Anaya it will be fun. Also I'm feeling so hungry."
Hearing Amy Anaya agreed only then sam left her hand. Then they went to the food counter of the restaurant.
