After the close of work, Elena was exhausted from all the cleaning, her blouse stuck to her body because of the sweat on her body but she didn’t let that stop her, her mission might have been delayed but she wasn’t deterred, she rushed out of the office and took a taxi to Sean’s residence to give Ethan a surprise visit and check on Mrs Sean, as she approached their entrance she heard Mrs Sean asked Ethan a question and her step faltered, she stopped in her tracks immediately and bent down to avoid them seeing her through the window, she could hear their voice faintly but if she stretched her ears enough and listened carefully she could hear everything they were saying.

“So when are you planning to hold the wedding"

Mrs Sean ask

“I’ll have to get back to you on that"

she heard Ethan said and she had a strange sensation in the pit of her stomach, she ignored her feelings covering her mouth with her hand to avoid making any sound as different thoughts drift through her mind, she didn’t hear most of what Ethan said.

“is Ethan planning to propose to me, will I be getting married soon, I should leave so I don’t spoil his surprise"

Getting up carefully not make any noise she turned back and left.

All through the weekend Elena imagined the type of wedding she would love to have, she pictured herself walking down the aisle while the famous wedding song plays in the background, Ethan would be standing at the altar smiling brightly at her and she would packed her hair in a messy bun holding it with a tiara, he white wedding gown would flow on the ground and Sarah would be her maid of honour, Everyone would look at her with envy as she walks down the aisle to meet the love of her life but then she thought, what if the bride is not her, could Ethan possibly be discussing his wedding with his mum without proposing to her first.

“Hmm, I thought proposals come first”

she said quietly to herself, her lip pursed as she thought about how Heartbroken she would be if Ethan was really cheating on her, she had put in a lot into this relationship and was hoping against all odds that her fears will not become the reality, she kept thinking Ethan would propose to her that weekend so when she met with him on Saturday but he didn’t say or do anything that suggests he wants to marry her, Elena began to feel that strange sensation in the pit of her stomach once again only this time it was stronger and class could feel it wasn’t a good feeling, it was a feeling that made her sweat even though the weather was cool, she watched him carefully looking for any sign even the slightest of sign that could put her mind at rest but nothing about Ethan shows he has such plans, she told herself he was only trying his best to keep it a secret from her, she decided to wait. Willing herself to listen to what Ethan was saying she heard him ask.

“so how much can I get"

“huh"

Elena sigh not catching the whole statement.

“Pay attention Elena, why is your mind drifting off tonight" Ethan said, stroking her hand lightly

“hmm"

Elena sighed once again but Ethan didn’t bother pursuing the topic further

“I said I have a big order from work and need money to meet up with it, I was hoping you can loan me some amount of money, I’ll pay back once the order is completed"

Ethan said looking into her eye.

Elena swallowed her spit and said

“well, I don’t have much at the moment since I had to pay for your mum’s check up yesterday but i'll see what I can do"

She smiled weakly and Ethan smiled back and said

“okay, thanks babe, I’ll pay back all the money after this deal falls through"

By Sunday Elena still didn’t see any proposal from Ethan, she figured money couldn’t be the issue, she had sent him the money he requested on Saturday because she thought the money was for the proposal, seeing there was no sign of a proposal, she decided to pay a surprise visit to see what she can gather.

Getting to the house the house was quiet as Elena walked in, she had an eerie feeling as if something bad was about to happen but she walked on putting her feelings aside.

“Mrs Sean must be sleeping, I don’t want to disturb her, i'll just go to Ethan’s room and see if he’s home or see what I can find"

Elena said to herself, passing through the passage leading to Ethan’s room.

She heard a faint sound coming from the room and she walked faster but quietly, the closer she got the louder the sound, when she was in front of the room door she was sure it was a woman’s voice she heard and it wasn’t just a woman's voice it was moaning, shocked to her core she stood rooted on her spot, scared of opening the door, scared of the sight that will appear before her once the door open, scared to find out Clarissa had been right about Ethan, scared that all her energy, time and money would simply go down the drain after the door open, scared that once she open the door what she already knows in her heart would become a reality.

shaking from fear and heartbreak that was to come she turned the door knob and just like she thought, a naked woman lay on the bed tangled with Ethan Sean whom Elena had thought was her one true love after all the previous disappointments, only it wasn’t just any woman it was Shirley, someone Elena considers to be one of her few friends.

    Ethan looked up at the click sound of the door and found Elena standing there, his brows raised slightly as he began to cough from shock.“What are you doing here" He asked when his cough calmed, he quickly sat up on the bed using the blanket to cover his nakedness, Shirley couldn’t stand up for the bed either cause her clothes were scattered all over the floor, Elena looked at the two people on the bed, her expression blank as she said“is she the one you’re getting married to"“What" Ethan said, shocked to know she knew about his wedding plans“Wait, we’re getting married” Shirley asked as her interest piqued“who told you I was getting g married"Elena ignored his question and focused on Shirley “well, miss Backstabber, am sure he’s planning his wedding to someone and since you know noting about it, I guess he’s just playing you as well" a cold smile surfaced on Elena’s face as she said those words, watching Shirley’s expression change to horror“You’re getting married" Shirle
