Chapter 6

                     Chapter six

"It was long before he even met you." The pain on her face even much painful than the one I carried.

She really is not proud of her brother's action.

"Hector, he was still married to Georgina, this was before her death__ she found out about him cheating with Camilla." She says, tears already rolling down her cheeks. " Camilla, she's Hector's sweet from when they were still in high school."

I listen and start the wonder the possibility of this woman being the same.

"Camilla, she's a redhead." I ask and from Sofia's expression I could tell the answer.

"Why didn't you tell me this before that I was marrying a man who's heart belonged to another." I ask feeling betrayed.

"I swear on my life,Elena, I thought he'd changed. In the past he begged Georgina to stay and even cut his ties with Camilla after that. I somewhat imaged all this while that he'd kept true to his own word."  She says and I could tell her genuine concern.

"Why marry me instead? He could have just married her after Georgina's death." I ask, this really is something I can't contemplate.

"He knew my parents would never accept the woman he'd been cheating with __ and Camilla, she's married.". She says and my pain just changed into anger.

I stand up from the couch, I just have to leave and find a place I could relax myself.

"I'll just take my leave." I say as I stand up.

"Elena, if I'd ever known he'd  do this to you __ I wouldn't have hesitated to have you walk away from him. Georgina, she was my friend and I introduced her to Hector." She says__" I never got over the fact that my brother never once deserved her, she suffered loving him and I was guilty of it."

I hug her, I thought I needed the comfort but she definitely did need it more than I. She blames herself for something that isn't her fault.

"I believe you're wonderful and you're a good woman. Never blame yourself for Hector's bad habits." I tell her.

"You could just stay here. The kids are at summer camp and Marcus, he travelled." She offers.

"I can't, just in case he comes here and I am not ready to see him. I'll just stay at a hotel, I haven't told Isla yet, so I can't go to hers."

"It's okay." She says letting me to go.

_____

The sound of a knock getting loud, I can hear it. It is definitely my door.
Slowly I start to open my eyes, my eyelids still heavy,  I sit up on the bed squinting my eyes. With my hand, I block the rays of light peeking in the room through the window, making it look warm and golden inside.

As my eyes adjust to the brightness of the room, I roll to the edge of the bed and place my feet to the floor.

The cold tiled on my feet nearly getting me to fall back on the bed but the banging on the door__ definitely won't let me sleep in peace.

I wonder what I did to that room service staff that he or she has to bang on the door that loud.

Pushing my hesitation to the side, I stand from the bed and drag my fatigued body out of the bedroom to  the half hallway and to the door.

"I swear to God if I didn't think you're __" I hear Isla's voice speak in rage but she suddenly keeps quiet on me fully opening the door.

The silence perturbing me to the core that I had to look behind just to make sure there wasn't any ghosts. 

 "Isla __"I attempted to speak but she cut me off. 

She was pissed, really pissed, leave alone the dramatic expression of anger. i just wonder how she found me here and if she already figured out about Hector.

"You know, i don't know about you, but as for me, i mean't it when i said my shoulder will always be yours to cry on or even lean on. Your battles are mine__ you're  my ride or die and i mean that." she says, holding back her urge to yell at me.

I should have talked to her earlier.

" Just this morning, I woke up to Hector banging at my door asking me about your whereabouts, he didn't even tell me anything and just fled away on realizing you weren't with me. I called you and you didn't bother to pick up __ I was scared something happened to you only to have Sofia tell me the one thing I never expected to hear. Do you know how worried I was about you  after finding out about Hector?"

"Am sorry, i just didn't want to bother you." i apologise, Isla was one person i couldn't bare if they were angry at me.

"Who said that i am  angry at you? I'm not pissed that you didn't tell me about Hector straight away__am just saddened that you're letting his betrayal hurt you to the core." Her words coming as a reminder of my past pains.

I know what she's hinting at but am just not open to that conversation right now, i know am not really that lets my wounds heal by crying over them; i always held back, i held back my tears, my words__ maybe i just believed so much that nothing heals like time.Isla, she prefers letting tears heal the wounds. 

Trying to change the topic, i remind her of the fact that we're still standing by the door.

I just hope she doesn't bring it back the topic once we're inside.

"I can you you don't like what am going to say." she says, pulling me into a tight hug. 

Heavens! i really needed that hug, all night after leaving Sofia's house, i spent the time drinking and thinking, my life decisions. I wasn't an alcohol addict but i needed it to quench my pains, pains, that hurt worse than a nail in the flesh.

I'd literally tied the knot with the first man i caught feelings for, he was the first i ever did date. Never once did i care that he was twenty one years older than i was nor did i care that he was widowed; i was just blinded by my feelings for him, the side of him he showed me __ a loyal and respectful partner, loving and doting.

I was indeed foolish and naive.  I marry a forty three year old at just twenty two and just believed in there  being a forever for  us. Am just a lover in an illusion.

"I won't ask you to cry, Elena, i know you don't like to cry over things __but believe me, the day you try it, you'll find the feeling soothing." she says pulling away from the hug.
