 Chapter 1: Three years, Three lies.

Micah's POV.

' How could one's love change so fast '

   I thought as I walked aimlessly round the street with fat hot tears streaming down my face.

Was it really love?

  I had no one to ask, but sincerely, I didn't need anyone to tell me. Now I now know the right answer, NO.

It was definitely love for me, but it seems it wasn't the same for him.

Family?

   I muttered as I rested behind a rock, my legs hurting so hard and begging not to be used aimlessly.

    A word I never knew I would come to hate so much.

In what way have I done anything wrong?

  First love? True love?

   It's all a sham. Never believe that if you were told, never again.

I wanted to find and murder that one person who had said from the start that first love doesn't work out. 

  I believe that one person is the cause of my misfortune now.

   I squat down, not bothering to clean those tears that can't stop dripping down my face.

How did I get so blind? Blinded that I could not even differentiate from being used to being loved.

  Tons of questions were running in my head with no answer to tend to them.

  A new fresh troll of tears dripped down from my eyes as I remembered the conversation that had just taken place 45 minutes ago.

   45 minutes earlier.....

 " You're engaged?" I whispered yelled, hint of happiness could be heard in my voice even as I tried to keep my tiny voice at bay.

" Yes, sister," she answered, nodding, and I could see she wasn't that thrilled to share the news with me.

  I smiled heartily.

" You don't need to feel guilty, Colette, Nate would propose to me when the time is right," I said with hope filled in my heart, perhaps.

" Is it your mystery boyfriend? Do I know him? Is it the same guy you refuse to let me meet or even know his name? I knew it was definitely him, but i still wanted to check the fact without any doubt.

   Colette, as I can tell, is head over heels for this guy, I have no idea when they started dating, but I got to know about it recently. She had refused to let me meet her boyfriend or even let me talk to him, not even a picture of him.

   Most times, late night text, the video calls, and numerous dates, Colette talks a lot about him, but I have never met him. She had never allowed me to.

 " I will show him to you now, sister," Cole announced, and I paused, giving her a puzzled look. All of a sudden, she wants to show me the guy she has been hiding from me all this time.  

 " Really, Colette?" I voiced out still excited to be meeting with him finally. My sky blue eyes lit up with curiosity as suspense seems to pull me in as each second tickled by.

   

  Finally, she has decided to show me this guy that she talks so much about, I've asked her several times to tell me about him or let me meet him but she often refuse or come up with different excuses that makes no actual sense but this time Wendy is voluntarily making me meet him.

" Where is he?" I asked my eyes, scanning around the room in search of this guy whom my sister loves so much.

   She stood up slowly and walked towards the door, I don't know if am being too touchy but Colette doesn't look alright, she's supposed to be happy, she's the latest fiancee in town but it seems something vis wrong with her, one which I can't really place my hands on.

  I sat gently, anticipating this guy so eagerly. My patience was running out badly, and Cole was contributing to it as she walked slowly to the door. I badly wanted to meet this infamous guy.

  I heard Colette breathe down heavily before summoning up courage to open the door.

Is she afraid I won't approve of the guy? Of course not, I would support her in any choice she chose to make.

  The door squeaked in opening and slowly revealed a tall man.

  He was putting on a navy blue black suit, with the buttons appropriately in order, the suit shows how well it was being ironed, his long feet was claded in a black shiny toluene shoes, giving him the pass of a gentle man.

   His face could pass an average model, and his brown hair was styled and gelled modestly, making him look splendid.

  He stood still, like a hero.

  " Nate," I squealed as my lips pulled into a wide smile.

  " You came just right in time, Colette is about to show me her, fiancee." I could not hide the happiness in my voice, and Nate is not someone I would try to hide it from.

  But as if I didn't just speak to him, he stood still, his eyes glued to Colette.

  " Honey," Cole called as she rushed into Nate arms like she had been expecting him.

  " How are you?" Nate asked, bending to her height before placing a kiss on her forehead.

What is happening?

  Colette and Nathaniel, my boyfriend, have never been this intimate minus the constant eye contact I used to witness.

" Is something wrong here?" I asked confusedly.

  Even if Nate is drunk again, Colette is perfectly okay.

" Sorry sister, meet my fiance Nate and Micah, my sister." Colette spoke up, not looking guilty anymore but with enough courage.

" And sister," Cole continued. She pointed her fingers to herself then to Nate before continuing. " It's our engagement ceremony next week because I'm pregnant for him, and we can't wait to live as one," Colette completed smiling sheepishly.

   I'm really confused. What the hell is going on here?.
