The Truth

The first Chapter

Ella's pov - It was a bright sunny day but the dark cloud can be seen everywhere in the sky. The climate was strange! I look up to the sky from my balcony and felling uncomfortable by suddenly feeling a little anxious. But i shook off these feelings and went to the washroom. After getting dressed, I came down to the dinning hall for breakfast, there was no trace of Alder can be seen.

I cooked some light breakfast for me and sat down in the dinning table. While eating i thought in mind, "again he didn't come home. With what work he's so busy with that he seldom come home. No, does he even remember at all that he has a wife?" I was very upset thinking about all of these stuffs. After eating my breakfast and taking care of the dishes i called my best friend Ana. She answered right way which brought a smile on my face thinking about it.

Ana- "Hello my darling, good morning. I was just going to call you but you called me first its fate isn't it.... hahaha".

Ella- "Good morning to you too my best friend and yes it is fate haha. ^^ So why did you thought about calling me so early in the morning? Do you have a plan for the day or what?"

Ana- "haha...ha..ha ...eh....um i.. i ..it is a bit... i mean i can't tell you about it over ph....we have to meet. So get ready I'm going to pick you up myself in 20 minutes."

Ella- "b..but...why suddenly?... what's.."

Ana- "Ella....my best friend please believe me and get ready.... today is very important...we can't afford to waste any time anymore.

Upon hearing what Ana said, i grew more anxious. I don't know why I'm feeling like this from the morning but i don't have any good feeling about it. But i shook off these feelings again and decided to go as i was also feeling bored.

Ella- "um okay Ana... I've no problem... either way I don't have anything to do at home also so I'll go with you^^......but what plans did you made? Shopping? or anything else?" ^^

Ana- "uuh... I'll tell you when we'll meet....so don't worry."

Ella- "wow! Why being so mysterious...haha? but okay I'll hear it from you directly when we meet.....then see you in 20mins."

Ana- "hmm....yes."

She cut the call and then got up to get ready. Ella opened her wardrobe and choose a simple elegant blue dress for her. With minimal make-up she simply brushed her hair and let it stay like that.

Ella was a natural beauty, she even don't like make-up that much. Ella had a cute dimple on her cheeks... whenever she smiles it shows up which make her more cuter than ever. Her jet black long hair brings more beauty to her. It's like black curvey clouds....so mysterious and beautiful. Ella's elegant blue dress which were hugging her curves very well helped her to look hot yet graceful. She wore a black heels. With that she was done and suddenly she heard a doorbell. "it must be Ana" she thought to herself......and ran downstairs to open the doors for her. But she saw it wasn't Ana ....."woah, what a surprise Theo and Rebecca. Where's Ana?"

Rebecca- "She's in the car....um if you are ready then let's go?"

Ella- "Yeah, I'm ready. Just give me a minute so that i can leave a message for Alden. Why don't you guys come and sit in the drawing room?"

Theo- "Um...Ella i don't think that'll be necessary....i mean does Alden even come home at this hour?"

Hearing what Theo said i felt a little heavy on heart. But yes that is true.... he'll not come at this hour. For him work is the most important thing, he don't even come at night so it's impossible to come home at working hours.

Rebecca- "Ella? what are you thinking?"

Ella- "uh..h....no i was just thinking what Theo said is correct... he'll not come at working hours so let's go. Just a minute let me grab my bag." ^ ^

Rebecca- "yeah...sure."

Rebecca and Theo looked at eachother and smile a little. They went near Ana's car where she was waiting for them.

Ana- "Here you guys are....Hii Ell...get on the car...let's go now."

Ella- "Hi, but where are we going...now can anyone tell me?" ^ ^

Ana- "Yes Yes you will know in a minute."

Ana started the car and noded her head to Rebecca.

Rebecca- "Ella...what I'm going to tell you now...you..you might be hurt but this is all for you. We can't see you to get hurt anymore. We don't want you to stay in the dark."

I looked at her like i can't understand what she's saying, Then Theo handed me a envelope. There's some photos. I opened the envelope and looked at the photos. I couldn't believe my eyes what I was seeing. My eyes widened, I saw my dear husband with my little sister. The two of them was everywhere in the photos and if i was a stranger..... looking at the photos I'd thought 'wow, what a sweet couple'. Yeah they were being all lovey dovey all over the photos. My mind was blank for some moments. Rebecca shook me a little...

Rebecca- "Ella?"

Ella- "Ye...yeah? u..u guys...what do you mean by these? i ..i can't understand a thing"..... suddenly a tear dropped from my eyes. My face was on fire. I was on the verge of crying. But i thought to myself 'no i can't cry now ....I've to know what does these means.'

Ana- "Ella... listening to us. What we are saying is correct...what you saw is correct. These photos was taken by a Theo. You remember when we were at the city center shopping mall last month, Rebecca and me told you that we saw Alden and Liya? you even called Alden and he said he was in the office! But the truth is Theo saw them also and took this photo. From this we got our suspicions so we followed them for some days. And these....these are the results." : (

I couldn't believe what I am hearing...why would they...my face fell pale. Alden, my husband who doesn't even have a little time for his wife why would he spend time with my little sister? I was thinking about all the possible things but i couldn't form a good idea to it. Suddenly Ana stopped the car....i saw we were in front of my father's house. I looked at them with puzzled eyes. Theo suddenly spoke up...

Theo- "Ella you have to face it....you have to know what they were doing behind our back"

Theo was my Classmate and also my sister Liya's boyfriend. When I was in college...Liya proposed to him and it's been 3years they are together. I looked at him with questioned eye...'why he is saying that....what did they do behind our back?' Rebecca said, - "Let's go" and i saw Ana was also out of the car... Theo opened the door for me. We went in and i pressed the doorbell. In some time someone opened the door, it was a maid. Seeing me she started trembling.

Rebecca- "Where's Liya? You better speak fast."

The maid- "She..th..the young miss ii...in..is in he...her ro...in elder miss's room. I wanted to say 'why would be she in my room and why we are even here?'....but my voice won't come out. Ana suddenly took my hand and started climbing the stairs. With each step i take i wanted to run away from there. I don't want to face what awaits...as i knew it can be anything but good. Rebecca and Theo was also following us. We were standing in front of my room. My heart was beating loudly, I could not hear anything. There was so many things going on my head and at the same time i couldn't think straight.

Ana- "Go there and see for yourself self. You can't get cheated by them anymore."

I wanted to say 'what's happening...what they are doing...why we are here' but Theo suddenly opened the door. Then I can hear shameless moans of my sister.

Leya- " a...ah ah uh ah...oh...Alden ah ah."
