Chapter 4: Strange

1 year later

Faith's POV

It's been a full year since Atlas and Melissa have been in New York. In this full year I felt like as if Atlas was slowly distancing himself from me. Our texts, calls and skype calls were reducing day by day. At first I thought it was because he was busy but I'm sure he couldn't be that busy that he didn't even have 2 minutes to spare for me. 

Me and Melissa would talk everyday but she also stopped talking to me. She did tell me her Aunty was going through a surgery so I didn't want to annoy her, but I missed them so much. I was here so far in London while them two were in the same City together. They would even spend time with each other and here I am dying without them two. Atlas has also been behaving strange with me. He talks to me as if he is bored or as if he tired of me. Has he found another girl?... did he ch-...no...I know he will never cheat on me. He promised me...he loves me and I trust him. 

Whenever I would call him or text him, he would always say he is busy. He didn't even have time for me anymore and that thought mad me upset. "Hey baby sis, what's up" My older brother Noah said, sitting beside me playing on his phone. "Nothing....just bored" I sighed. "Did you talk with Atlas and Melissa" he said not taking his eyes from his phone. "No....apparently they are too busy to even make time for me" I said with a quiet tone. "Hey...don't get upset....we are here for you and plus they are your best friends...they will make time...cheer up sis" Noah nudged me causing me to chuckle. Neither my family or Atlas's family knew of our relationship. They just think we are really close friends, except Mrs Williams...she has been shipping me and Atlas since we were in our mother's stomach. 

A year past...

"Atlas it's been 2 years. You have also stopped visiting me" I complained. "I'm busy Faith. I don't have time to chat with you" he said with a cold tone. I frowned. "Atlas what is wrong with you?...why are you acting like that?...have you found someone else huh?" I said in anger. "Shut Up Faith....stop acting like a controlling possessive girlfriend. I have a life here....I have a job unlike you who lives off your parents money. Now stop annoying me....I am busy" and with that he disconnected the call leaving me shocked. "Controlling possessive girlfriend?...seriously?" I scoffed. Tears swelled in my eyes at his words. What has happened to my Atlas?.

3 years later

I was so happy today. Mr and Mrs Willaims called me today telling me that Atlas was coming back. It's been 3 years since we stopped talking but I still had hope he would come back for me. "Fai...he is here" Mrs Williams yelled from downstairs making me blush. In total it's been 5 years but 3 years since I haven't seen his face. My man sure has become famous. I'm so proud of him. He was finally the CEO of one of Mr Bailey's companies and he owned many other clubs, resraurants and other buildings. He was all over the papers and girls were going crazy afer him. I scoffed at that thought. Atlas belonged to me but was that the reason why he distanced himself from me as he was now a famous business man?...

I quickly ran down the stairs in excitement ready to meet the love of my life, the man who I have waited for all my life. He promised me he will come back for me, he told me to wait for him, which I did for 5 years and finally that day has arrived.

I nearly tripped over the stairs but I didn't care if I hurt myself, I was craving for one look of him, I was in desperation to see his face again after 5 long years.

With a wide smile I walked through the hall way and was ready to greet him but my smile died down at what I saw. I heard my heart shatter to pieces at what I heard next........How?, when?, why?....these questions raised in my mind.

"Congratulations on your wedding, son. You and Melissa look absolutely gorgeous together" Mrs Williams said looking at the couple with adorness and love. I leaned next to the wall, feeling weak with fresh tears falling down my red cheeks. 'Married?, he was married?'. I looked at him with immense pain and betrayal. Married?....but....he said.....

Suddenly his eyes locked with mine making my heart freeze. I saw a flash a pain in his eyes but he quickly hid it with a flash as he replaced it with coldness. He looked at me with a blank expression as if he didn't care, he didn't care about how I felt.

I waited for 5 long years for him. I remained faithful, loyal to be pure for him and here he comes home with a woman, not just any woman but my best friend by his side claiming to be married. I looked at my friend is disgust and betrayal. She looked at me and gave me an evil smirk.

'Why?'

"I'm really upset you didn't tell me. How could you get married without us knowing?. I thought you and Faith had something going on. You have seriously surprised us son" Mr Williams said with a frown. I stood at the back with tears pouring out of my red eyes. My eyes were locked on him and only him. 'Was my love a joke to him?, was my love a game to him?'

'Why would you do this to me Atlas? why?'
