47: The destruction of Eli Wilson
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56"There is an ocean of silence between us… and I am drowning in it."
~Ranata SuzukiShe's wearing a red blouse, a black pencil skirt and a red bag, her curly hair neatly tied into a bun and her face holding little to no makeup on it.
My heart drops and panic rises within me as my eyes meet hers and she sees it too because she scoffs and enters further into the room even without being invited, carrying the same arrogance and loathe she always had around me.
Why is she here? Is she following me? How's the wedding? Shit, she was uninvited to the wedding.
What does she want? Because this isn't keeping a low key like Anna instructed or wanted. Someone has discovered my hiding place and I fear for the worst.
"What are you doing here?" I demand and slowly I turn to look at her, my voice fighting to stay firm. "How did you find me?"

"The truth hurts. And much more than love, kindness, or any of these warm feelings you’re so fond of, truth is beauty, and the thing that will set you free."A.D. Aliwat I follow behind her like a sheep being led to the slaughter without a word to say and she lead me to one of the three cars parked at the entrance of the hotel which was a Toyota. This is the end, this is my end, the end I have dreaded since the beginning of this mess. My whole body trembles and cold grips me to the core and I am panicking and dreadful of what lies ahead.

My breath grows laboured and hard and my quivering hands become sweaty as she hands me the keys to the car and I confusedly collect it.

There is a window to the side, which somehow the sun manages to penetrate through even with the curtain acting as a barrier.

Thank you.Glory T!na xoxo***"What irritated me most in that entire situation was the fact that I wasn’t feeling humiliated, or annoyed, or even fooled. Betrayal was what I felt, my heart broken not just by a guy I was in love with, but also by, as I once believed, a true friend."~Danka V¶15th April, 2002.Moans after moans welcome me as I approach my apartment, and I roll my eyes as I sink my key into the door and open it. The loud moan accompanied by heavy grunt coming from my boyfriend makes me want to b
Ms Wilson's Replacement 2: It's not as good
"Shame, blame, disrespect, betrayal, and the withholding of affection damage the roots from which love grows. Love can only survive these injuries if they are acknowledged, healed and rare."Brené Brown¶I open the house hoping that there would be no one in the house today and that they won't be until I'm out. Ade doesn't work and hasn't bothered looking for one since he lost his last job, but he gambles a lot and any money he makes from gambling, he keeps it so he can gamble away the next day.Today is Tuesday and hopefully, he is at the betting bar, probably drunk already.Why the hell am I wasting my time thinking about him?I enter into the kitchen and pick the things that belong to me there— which is everything. I brin
Ms Wilson's Replacement 3: Why so rude?
"It is a wise thing to be polite; consequently, it is a stupid thing to be rude. To make enemies by unnecessary and wilful incivility is just as insane a proceeding as to set your house on fire. For politeness is like a counter--an avowedly false coin, with which it is foolish to be stingy.~ArthurSchopenhauer†Six months later“Are you even listening to me?” demands an angry voice and I snap out of my daydreaming and see a middle-aged woman looking— more like glaring at me.Although her screaming in my face was the very reason I zoned out, I try to recover myself and be polite. “I am sorry ma’am,” I say and her pink whipped face becomes a red one.I glance down and I see a doll on the counter before me. Yes, she was saying something about the doll. Was it malfunctioning or is she having a change of heart ab
Ms Wilson's Replacement 4: Karma is an asshole
"Not only is there often a right and wrong, but what goes around does come around. Karma exists."~Donald Van de Mark¶My eyes are wide my mouth is ajar, gasping for air. The jogging took my breath away, but the lady in my room whoever she is has just knocked the air out.Startled and confused I place my hand on my chest trying to calm my racing heart and a million question flies through my head in that very moment.Like how she got to my room? Because there is only one key to my apartment and I have it with me.Why she looks exactly like me?What the hell she wants?And how the hell did I not see her when I walked in?She looks like me and though her hair is in a treated and slightly curled blonde hair with fringe. Her eyes are light brown with close-set eye shape while mine are dark brown w
Ms Wilson's Replacement 5: Let me introduce myself
"People with weaknesses get killed by the people who lack them. Notice I'm not dead."Sherrilyn Kenyon"Quynn Hudson, I am Anna Wilson, I am Eli Wilson's fiancée and in five weeks I will be his wife," she says the Wilson name with much emphasis on the Wilson as if it was supposed to mean something to me.Wilson; does that name sound familiar? I wonder to myself before coming up short. No, it doesn't. Well, is it supposed to? Also no.At least the stranger finally put a name to herself, I've been calling her Lucifer's younger sister since I saw her more than half an hour ago.She then takes the next hour briefly introducing herself, Family, background, work and things I didn't find interesting to know.She's not my lost twin because according to everything she just said, she knows her birth parents and they are still alive the last time she
Ms Wilson's Replacement 6: Negotiating with the devil
"Note to the wise: whenever someone insists that he wants to buy something from you, but tells you there’s no real value in it yet, two things are happening: he’s lying, and you’re being taken."~Michael A. StackpoleThe doorbell rings and I groan and get up from the couch where I'd fallen asleep in last night after Luke left. My head is pounding just like it did last night when Luke came to visit. After falling asleep last night, I woke up to remind myself that Ade was dead and I was responsible for it. I wanted Ade to die, for what he did to me, but that was just because of the anger I felt in that moment and really didn't want that. But as much as I tried to push it off, I couldn't, I was guilty and yet unable to do anything, but wallow in my pain and grief of my reality and that kept me up for another four hours before I finally slept.I need painkillers more than ever.

"When it's gone, you'll know what a gift love was. You'll suffer like this. So go back and fight to keep it."Ian McEwan~Quynn POV A few days ago I would have been happier with the news of the finding of my bag because that meant I could get my phone and most likely get in touch with Anna, but I have called the number given to me by the stranger earlier and it there was no answer.If all was okay with Anna why didn't she come for the switch? Why isn't she here planning her own wedding? Is she even looking forward to her wedding? If yes, why is she MIA on this very important week?Questions that can't be answered run through my head and I shake them out to retain composure and I make downstairs to meet Eli after I heard the sound of his car in the driveway. The front door opens and he steps into the parlour he's wearing a grey long sleeve

That wasn't what Anna said but I'd like my use of words for better emphasis.I am almost done with the last document when the door opens and Keffi walks into the office.She's wearing a green blouse and a plain black trousers, her hair is in a pony tail and her face having her usual natural make-up with a red lipstick sealing the deal. She looks like she's going out on a date and whoever the man is, good for him.Keffi has alw

"If you come from a family where there is no struggle to outshine one another, give thanks to God."~Michael Bassey JohnsonQuynn's POVI feel like everything is falling apart before my very eyes and I cannot help pacing around and thinking about what I just did and said back there. I have no idea what in God's name came over me. Jumai has never been a fan of Anna and it wasn't news, but I should have held it together at least for Eli's sake. Now, I succeeded in proving what Jumai have always said about me is true pacing beside the car and when she sees me. I see Eli approaching me and I stops and walks up to him with apologetic eyes."I'm sorry I said all that to your mom, I just lost it and I don't make the wisest choices in my moments of anger. Just lately things are not going the way I expected and I'm losing it and I didn't mean for you to see that s

"Perhaps one did not want to be loved so much as to be understood."~George OrwellColdness breaks out onto my skin and my throat runs dry as I stare at Anna's parents in awe. "You are not our Anna.""How did you know?" my brow narrowing is the only expression my face gives even though I am tumbling on the inside.Maria steps forward and gently takes my hand, "We were Anna's parent for fifteen years and we could tell you weren't her the minute you spoke. And indeed it has been long, but we raised Anna and we know what's unlike her. We believe that you are Cara Wilson our long lost daughter." Her eyes are glassy and filled with much hope and happiness.I turn to look at Eli who is far away and unable to hear what we're saying, "Then why didn't you say anything?""Because it doesn't look like you have a choice in wha

"The truth is rarely pure and never simple."~Oscar Wilde"What?""Your mother was pregnant we went to the hospital for delivery but unlike the ultrasound predicted, we ended up with two babies. When the doctors came to me with the news I was happy and joyful we have been trying to have kids for years," he laces his finger in Maria's as he speaks. "Your mother went into coma after delivery and so we couldn't leave after the both of you were born, so you were kept on the hospital's new born baby's ward. I went to visit you guys everyday that your mother was in that coma and that was the most painful and joyous moment of my life. I was happy that you two were in our lives, but the doctor's couldn't ascertain that your mother was going to come out of the coma and I couldn't raise you two alone."The fourth day of my visit, I saw a man in the baby's ward, holding onto your

"The fear of missing out was a powerful deterrent." ~John CarreyrouQuynn's POVI didn't think I was going to find them, Anna biological parents without having to search the whole town. Eli suggestion to meet Anna's parents was the worse idea ever and yes it would have been a reasonable suggestion if he was giving it to Anna but he wasn't and I was trapped with saying no and making him more suspicious of me and saying yes and throwing myself under the bus.Since the night he brought me home he has been very careful and suspicious and I can't blame him, it's was all Anna's fault and every day I can't help cursing her for ruining my life. This week is a week I didn't plan for and I feel like I'm leaving on borrowed time and I can't even pray that this end with me being free, that was last week prayer and God answered that
