Living A Liar’s Life
(American Story)
Episode 34
By : Kebby NG
EMMA POV
I stood watching Nina as she walked off, Would she really tell Brian the truth, Will she be willing to ruin all what Micheal have been planning for a long time
Not wanting to leave the discussion that way, I ran after her,Luckily I didn’t have the Escourts following me
“Are you crazy! what did you just say you will do?”I asked
“No am not crazy and you heard what I said”She replied
“You are saying you are willing to rat out Micheal just to get back at me”
“Who said any thing about rattling Micheal, I wasn’t talking about him, What I said is meant for you alone, I won’t only tell Brian, I will also make sure that you will be the one who takes all the blame”She told me angrily
“You wouldn’t do it”
“I have nothing to lose Emma, The only last thing have got was taken from me too and that’s because of you”
“I didn’t do any thing,why try to blame me if Brian isn’t paying attention to you “I asked
“Brian is only behaving that way because you are there Emma!”
“As you have said Brian hates me, Why would he concern him self with me now?”
“I don’t know how you did it but last night was the first time he told me to use the maid quaters, You would have been behind it!”She yelled at me
“I did no such thing Nina”
“Liar, You love him and you will be willing to do any thing just to get him to notice you”She yelled at me again
“Look there is no point in us arguing like this, You can be rest assured that Brian loves only you and I won’t try to get a man who loves some one else”I said and turned to leave when she said
“Prove it to me”.
“Prove what?”
“That you are not after my man”
Sighing gently I asked “What do you want me to do exactly?”
“You two will be leaving for The little coast town for the charity auction, I found out that I was not listed amongst the maid that will be there , I want you to take me and with every opportunity you get, You talk to Brian about me, In short do your utmost best to get us together ”
“And if I don’t succeed?”
“I might do some thing you would not expect and certainly some thing you wouldn’t like”She said angrily
“Fine, You can be rest assured because Brian loves only you and it won’t be a hard thing to reconcile you both”
“I sure hope so “She said and walked off.
I sighed starring after her, It was one thing to be threatened by Micheal and it was another to be threatened by Nina.
Micheal still tread with caution but am sure Nina wont hesitate to spill the whole thing.
Later that day with our bags packed in the car and all the Escourts ready, I walked out of the palace with Brian beside me
He was talking on the phone but he stopped when he saw Nina amongst the group of escourts
“I want her to come with me”I said starring at him
“But there are enough maid, Must she come?”He asked tersely
“Yes and besides, You know you want her there” I said teasing him a bit
“No I don’t” was the the reply he gave me when he got into the limo.
I followed suit, While he focused on his work, I kept on wondering why he is acting this way with Nina
“Brian what is it”I asked and he stared at me
“What is what?”
“Why this sudden attitude towards Nina, She has been worried since last night “I lied
“You don’t need to concern yourself with such issues” He replied
“Not when it is a problem for me too”I replied
“How is it a problem for you?”He asked
“Well, its just feels weird”I replied
“Are you perhaps worried about me?”He asked this question giving me a smile
“Worried? Am not worried about you”I replied
“Well then you don’t need to know what is going on between Nina and me, Mind your business”He said and continued with his work
If he wouldn’t talk then how in the world am I going to know why he is acting that way to Nina.
I woke up when I saw the car had stopped, During the ride I had slept off like a log but it feels a bit strange, I had remembered laying my head on the head rest why is it that my head is on some one shoulders.
“If you have woken up just get up, We have arrived”He said
I got up and saw that It was his shoulders that I had been sleeping on but how did that happen, I thought as I stared at him
I wasn’t given a chance to ask because he got out of the car and I did the same.
For the next few hours we were welcomed by the town head who was named Romeo and was introduced around by him.
The introduction ended well and We were taken to a camping ground and I was fascinated by the surrounding,This will be my first time am on a camping ground.
“To make you feel comfortable,We have decided to put you in the camping ground your Highness”The town Head said
“This will be better than booking us in an hotel”Brian said too admring the whole thing
As soon as he left I turned to stare at him.
“Is staying here a good idea”I asked
“It is,It’s been so long since have done some camping”He said
“If we are to stay in a tent then you and I will be sharing one”I asked
“We are both married, Every one will expect it”He said giving me a smile before walking off.
BRIAN POV
“We hope the charity auction will go well tomorrow” Romeo the town head said beside me
“I hope so too” I replied
We were heading back to the camping ground when I saw Dora sitted under the tree with some children, Seems like she was reading them a story
“We are sorry we couldn’t make it to the wedding but I must say that you chose well your Highness, She is one fine lady” Romeo added starring at Dora
“Yes she is”I agreed starring at Dora
She was just saying it last night that she loved me but she is trying to make me reconcile with Nina.
Through the whole day, She has been finding a way to bring the two of us together, isn’t she hurt herself, She loves me but act like every thing is fine.
Its a pity though that I can’t feel the same way for her, I also won’t let her succeed in making me reconcile with Nina.
The bch doesn’t love me, She is only after me because of what she can gain, Each time I think about it, I get so angry that I feel like a fool for falling in love with a gold digging bch like her.
While Romeo went to the little group to take away the kids, I secretly stared at Dora.
She looked a bit sad as she send the kids off and when a girl ran back to her to give her a kss, She gave the girl a bright smile which made her look pretty, I thought as I kept on starring at the scene
She looked up and when she saw me,She gave me a smile, A smile I found myself returning.
What is wrong with me, I shouldn’t be feeling this way, After all Dora had a lie of her own too, I shouldn’t be swayed by her charms or by anything.
“Enjoyed your day?”I asked as I moved towards her
“Yes,The kids were nice company”She replied
“Odd though,I remembered you didn’t like kids?”I asked to see her reaction but she gave nothing away
“Oh I do love them but I never showed it, Why don’t you go to the tent, I will join you after I finish with what am doing”She said
“You are fine with sharing a tent with me?”
“I am, After all we do share the same room” She said and gave me a smile before she walked off.
I don’t know why but each time she smile, I felt some thing In me stir, I just hope it’s not some thing serious.
I got to the tent only to find Nina In the sheets and judging from her appearance She, She was naked.
“What are you doing here!”I yelled at her
EMMA POV
I sat on one of the empty seats,Starring at the stars.
Right now Brian would be reconciling with Nina, I had gone through a lot of trouble today just to achieve that and though it hurts I hope they can settle their differences
I stood up about to go to the another tent because I was sure that Nina will be sharing it with Brian tonight
Out of no where some one pulled my arm and it was none other than Brian
“Why are you here! You are suppose to be reconciling with………”I stopped when I saw the angry look he had on his face
“Just what the hell are you doing Dora!”He yelled at me
“I……”I couldn’t complete my sentence because I saw Nina running towards us
When she saw us,She stood where she was, Brian stared at her and then at me and without warning he pulled me to him and kss me.
