"Bryan did you…, did you… sleep with ivy by any chance? be honest with me?".Tracy stammered.
He didn't say a word rather his eye was fixed on his phone.
"I'm talking to you Byran", She sneered.
"Yes I did any issues with that, I mean I have the right to make decisions or don't! I ?".
"Bryan!, she is my sister for crying out loud".Tracy yelled.
Bryan stood up from his seat. "Then call off the wedding little princess, you mom initiated all this I was never interested".
"Bryan! how could you talk to your fiance like that".
Bryan's mom mrs Hawthorne banks counterd.she has eardropping on their conversation.
"oh mom you are here?",Bryan said lifting his suitcase. "I have an important meeting at the office this morning bye".
He stormed into his car and looked at his phone screen as if he was expecting a message.the sound of the engine roared and he zoomed off immediately.
"""""""""
Bryan arrived in his office and was seated when his personal assistant came in.
"Sir some one is here to see you".George said.
Before Bryan could say anything Gavin bursted inside.
"Hi, Bryan Banks I'm Gavin", stretching his arm.
Bryan relaxed himself on his chair. "Mr Gavin to what do I owe this unexpected visit?".
Gavins jaw tightened. "I will just go straight to the point, stay away from my wife".
Bryan scoffed.
"Wife?, or… should I say supposed wife sir?.
Gavins's gaze met his."for the last time Bryan,am asking you nicely to stay clear…let it be known to you that ivy is using you, she doesn't know what love is even when she see real one standing in front of him".
"Enough!".Bryan cautioned him, my whole life I have always been used,so if she intends to use me shouldn't that be my problem?,..uhhh answer! me?".
Instantly his phone buzzed on the table and the screen light flash with a text message,from an unknown number.
"Please help,it's me ivy"
He Jolted from the chair feeling something was wrong and rushed out immediately. leaving Gavin speechless.
He arrived at Rowlands house and met them eating at the dinning but Ivy wasn't there.
"Goodday Mr and mrs Rowlands"he gestured with a hardware.
Tracy moved to him instantly. "do you mind joining us,after which we discuss about our wedding plans".
He stared at her in awe and laughed out loudly.
"Am here for ivy, where is she?.
Their was an automatic silence in the dinning at the mention of ivy.
Tracy sank at the edge of the chair and started crying.
Mrs Alice's face already contured with fury,seeing her precious daughter in tears matched towards him.
"What is your problem with ivy uhhh?… is she prettier than my daughter here, why do you keep making her feel worthless around you".
Bryan ran a hand through his head.and turned to Mr Rowlands.
"Sir am here to ask for you blessings,I want to get married to ivy".
Mr Rowlands sighed, And turned to his wife.
"Go and bring ivy".
"Rowlands!... what is the meaning of this?, are you kidding me right now?,can't you see our daughter is hurt?".
"Ivy is our daughter too regardless of…"mrs Rowlands went out immediately,before he could finish.
"DAD!",Tracy screamed in tears but am your daughter too.
Mr Rowlands moved towards her,and held her closer to him.
"Don't worry little princess you will be fine alright, Ivy is your sister and should be treated as one".
"No dad"Tracy said pulling away from him, the day she slept with Bryan that was the day she ceased been my… my sister.
"Alright then". I replied her,and moved swiftly to Bryan. "thanks for helping me out", I whispered in his ear.
"It's alright" he held my hand. "Mr and mrs Rowlands please we need your blessings".
He said with a mischievous smile playing on his lip.
"Not… so fast Bryan, I need to talk to this bitch". She leaned closer to me.
"let me remind you little angel…that you didn't,get into trouble with me for taking away Bryan from Tracy, rather for making her cry".
And then she wispered in my ear. "remind me to kill you,at the right time please… mrs…ivy Bank's".
She said scarstically and walked away from the living room.
I stood froozed with my body trembling with fear.
"Ummm…" Mr Rowlands cleared his throat,
With a slight smile on his cheek."You both have my blessings".
Tracy's world felt like it was tearing apart, at the sound of that. Screamed, "ivy you will ever regret messing with me".
I smiled at her and walked away with Bryan we hopped inside his car, the tension in the car was much and there was a need for scissors to cut it.
"Please am…hungry", my voice was barely a whisper.
He stared at me and speed up without a word.
Few minutes pass we are here at the Bank's restaurant one of the biggest in the city.
He made a reservation of both of us. But I couldn't eat the food. knowing how much hungry I was.
He look at me with a mixed feelings.
"what is it?, spill it you told me you were hungry and now… now you have been staring at the food, do you admire it so much?".
I gasped. "No, not that, i… I was poisoned at Home when I was 12, since then I really don't eat food made by someone else, am sorry I didn't tell…you"
Tears flowed freely down my eyes.
He exploded at the sight of my tears "do you always have to cry?, you have to be strong if you really want to fight ivy".
"I Know Bryan but am just hurt,I… I smile every day, but i can't remember when last i was happy because I have…"
Before I could say any other word he pulled me into a deep kiss, I wanted to old back but I found myself savoring his lip.
