Torn Between The Carter Brothers

I felt stupid as hell, and as I stared down at the bikini still on my body, I suddenly wanted to rip it off, cause after all what Marco said, I didn’t feel good in it anymore. Although, I was very certain he was more than mistaken when he said that the other guys had been eye fucking me.

I let out a sigh as I stepped out of the kitchen, minutes after Marco had left as well, and I stumbled to a stop at the sight of Marco and Aisha kissing by the curve of the kitchen. Lead settled in my stomach, and I felt bile gather in my throat as I quickly turned away from the sight and ran up the stairs.

Once in my room, as I slammed the door shut and leaned against the door, I was feeling a little dizzy as after abd disgust swan through ms in waves.

A part of what Marco said in the kitchen resurfaced in my mind, and I exhaled, feeling sick at the reminder that he saw me as a friend and nothing more. When he began to berate me in the kitchen, I had hoped that it was because he was jealous of me and not because he was looking out for me as a freaking friend!

The sight of this bikini just pissed me off even more and I pulled then off before going into the bathroom to go shower, while still feeling hurt and pained as hell.

After taking a shower, I laid in bed, clutching the pillow to my chest as I tried not to let myself wallow in self pity too much, cause it was clearly not gonna change my situation.

Zane was yet to come back, and I was waiting for him, cause I planned to tell him that I wasn’t interested in doing this anymore, and then I’ll leave for him today. Screw this wedding, screw everything, cause me coming here was clearly pointless. The sight of Marco and Aisha together was hurting me even more, it wasn’t getting better, it was getting even worst, so I think it’s best that I leave today, before I end up doing something stupid like bursting into tears on their wedding day in the presence of everyone, or objecting to the union when the priest asks if anyone in the congregation is against the couple getting joined together.

At that very moment, a call came into my phone and after checking the screen, I was surprised to see that it was one of my elder brothers.

In the next moment, I tensed up, cause I had a feeling I already knew why he was calling me.

I chewed on my bottom lip, feeling anxious and contemplating ignoring the call. But at the end of the day, I decided against that cause that would only drag this confrontation out even more.

“Addison, please tell me you’re not in Italy right now because of your ex’s wedding.” He demanded, cutting straight to the chase and I winced, biting at the inside of my mouth as I struggled to come up with a response.

“Don’t bother trying to lie right now, we just heard from mother that you’re there.” He pointed out and I winced again.

Of course mother ratted me out!

I asked her not to tell my elder siblings about this, and she promised not to. But of course she went against her words after they probably just asked if she had heard from me.
