HIS TRUE BEAUTY

I turned to her furious. “Enough! Abigail, don’t you …”

My mom slapped me hard, shutting me up.

“Get back to your senses Bruno! She wants to wreck my home, our home, she’s nothing but a bitch and a gold digger, your uncle’s brother in-law warned you but no instead you insulted him now look where you’ve got to, that shameless nymphomaniac, first she made love to you in this house next was your daddy maybe if grandpa was alive , he could be the next in line, that girl will never be my daughter in-law”Mother stated angrily.

I took my car keys and walked angrily out of the room, got to my car , I cried and hit on anything close.

This can’t be happening , why would she do this , why?!

I drove carelessly out of the compound , crying all the way, even though I tried to stop , I could not control my tears.

Her moans and pleasurable chuckles in that video hits me badly, it was same when we are together, it was so real to be fake, how could she, was I being played all along, is she really what they said she that she is, there’s a video evidence, what am I supposed to do now?

“Hey! Watch it! Asshole!!”.

A biker man shouted at me in fury.

I hit the brake nervously and realised that I was driving blindly towards a building.Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

The road safety cop came to me to inquire about my reckless driving.

“I am… I am so sorry”.

That was the only thing that I could utter, my lips shaking nervously, after the cop had left, I broke down inside my car and cried loudly.

My head felt like an exploded balloon after I pulled over to a parking lot and slept off there.

Hours later , I woke up to a dark sky.

“Mr , are you okay?”

A passenger asked , hitting my window.

“Is he dead?”

Someone else asked.

“The car parked here for hours”another said.

I engaged my engine and flashed my lead light.

They all stepped aside and I drove out of the place now gently and more carefully.

I stopped at Beauty’s place and honked repeatedly, I didn’t want to go into the house, I was so angry that I even stepped out of my car.

**BEAUTY’S POV**

I heard the car horn outside, it sounded like Bruno’s car. I have been waiting like forever. Finally, he came back!

I ran out of my room happily. I’m so glad he came back as promised, I rushed out of the house, and stood in front of the door.

I knew he must be watching, I brushed my hair, and checked my dress out, then I pout my lips annoyingly and watched towards him, like I was mad at him for wasting time.

My parents went to visit Gramps , so they will be spending a night out there. I was glad when they informed me though, because we can stay together tonight without worrying about my parents.

I wonder why he doesn’t want to come out of the car yet. I walked to him, and stood by the door smiling uncontrollably. He whined down the glass , my smile faded.

“Baby, what’s wrong?”

My heart beats faster and hurts seeing him in that state, what is happening first it was Jessie now Bruno?

He was crying

“Are you going to pretend not to know?”

He laughed sadly, licking his wet lips.

“Know about what, I don’t know what you are talking about, baby, I swear I have no idea, why not come in, let’s talk about it okay”.

I wanted to dry his cheeks with my palm

But he stopped me, that reaction scared me, my heart raced.

What is wrong, why is he acting strange towards me all of a sudden.

“Baby…?”

“Maybe this video will remind you”

He gave me his tab and played a video on it.

I was curious and serious to find out what happened, so I took it and watched.

As soon as I saw the content, I was riding on Mr Hathaway, I gasped loud my heart stopped, my eyes bulged out widely in shock, I unintentionally dropped the tablet , I couldn’t explain the shock but it took me minutes to open my mouth and gaped into a loud cry.

“This is not me, I… will never!”

I broke down crying.

“But it is you Beauty. the woman there is you. am I not enough?”Bruno replied.

I looked up at him with my eyes wet.

“Look baby the day I…. had an issue with your dad, he asked me for sex and..”.

He cuts me out.

“What now, why are you doing this, is this a cover for what you did?”

I cried more.

“No baby, I swear I am telling the truth, this isn’t me, it may be a fake video to frame me or something, baby please believe me, your father set me up”I cried loudly.

“I personally called a programmer to check it. Beauty, you think dad will step so low to frame you to gain what? Tell me, is this why you didn’t want to go with me and see dad, you were feeling guilty that you cheated on me with my daddy, Beauty… really? My father!”

Bruno’s voice sounded so harsh and brutal.

“No… please . stop it Bruno , you are hurting me! Hear me out”I pleaded.

I grabbed my hair, crying hysterically. I am so done for! I thought so hard about the time this happened, the clothes I was wearing were nothing like something I had in my wardrobe in the past or even presently.

“I swear that wasn’t me, I……..”

“That’s you Beauty! It was you… can’t you tell me the truth, why did you have to do this, tell me your reason let me know how to heal, I am completely losing myself, Beauty I am so so confused and so… fuck!”

He puts his hand over his mouth looking the other way.

I hate to see him this sad and helpless.

I had to remember but my brain was blank, I have no single memory of this, I was so torn apart, I almost lost my breath.

I grabbed my hair , losing my mind then I hold my chest and tried to breathe normally crying.

“I promise you…..(Cries in between)I promise…. Bruno, I don’t know how or when.. I don’t know..”

I cried nervously, shaking all over.

My hands scattered my hair as I tried to remember but nothing came to mind, I was helpless.

The only time I slept out was when I fall asleep at Jessi place and that wasn’t even the dress I wore, I don’t know where or when or even if this is so real, am I dreaming right now.

“This isn’t me, believe me Bruno…, please I..”.

I broke down again.

He suddenly stopped crying and was straight up.

“Fine , I believe you….”

I looked up surprisingly, a bit relieved.

“Really…you …you do?”I sobbed but he didn’t reply or even look at me.

“Yes, but you have to give me some time….., let’s give some time”.
