Chapter 11

"What am I doing here? Ugh what a way to greet your fiancé!" Gwen laughed childishly. "Oh sorry. I thought you had business back home?" Ethan was confused. "I finished it early and I thought I just had to see my soon to be husband. I've missed you. Have you missed me?" She pulled him close to her. "Yeah." He lied. "Good," she kissed him. "Where were you going?" "Back to the hotel." "Great, I'd love to spend a little time with you." She smiled. "Me too." He lied again. "Which one will you be wearing to Ethan and Gwen's wedding?" Ivy asked Teresa as the got into the limo. "I'm not sure, maybe the blue one." Teresa lied because she knew that there wasn't going to be a wedding. "Good choice. I'm also going to be wearing blue." Teresa smiled. Ivy sighed as though something troubled her. "Is something wrong, Ivy?" Teresa asked kindly. "No......well, I'm sad that I'm going to be losing my oldest son." She confided in Teresa. "Ethan, won't be leaving you." Teresa began, "He's just getting married. He still loves you. And I know for a fact that he wants you still in his life. He told me that you are going to be the best grandma ever." "Really?" Ivy brightened up. "Yes!" She smiled. "Teresa, I want to thank you for cheering me up and coming along on this trip." "On no! Don't thank me. I owe you a tremendous thank you! You've been so kind to me since I've moved here." "You're a nice girl, Teresa. Don't ever let anything change you. You know men aren't as important as you might think." "I know." "Well, here we are." Ivy said as the arrived at the hotel. "Go ahead and begin to pack up for tomorrow. And Ethan will take you out to dinner while I say good bye to some of my friends." "Okay. Have a nice time." Teresa said as she got out. [I] I can't wait to show Ethan my new dresses! [I/] Teresa thought. [I] I'll put on the gold one for dinner. [I/] Teresa made her way to Ethan's room. She knocked and waited. At first there was no response, but after a second knock someone answered. "Ethan, I have to show you what your mother bought me!" She said excitedly. "Shhh!" "Why?" Ethan put on his robe and stepped outside of his room pulling Teresa with him. "Teresa, Gwen's inside." He said frankly. "What! Did you tell her?" "Teresa, I can't yet." "Well, when?" "Tomorrow when we get back to Harmony." "Ethan, honey, who is it? I want you back in my arms." Gwen called out. Teresa peeked in and saw Gwen covered in sheets from the bed. It appeared as though Ethan and Gwen were having sex. "Oh my God! Are you.....?" "Teresa, it's not like that." "Oh really? Would you mind telling me what the hell you both are doing?" She demanded to know. "Ethan!" Gwen shouted again. "Listen we'll talk about this later." Ethan said in a hurry. "No!" She pulled him back. "Ethan, explain to me know or we are through?" "Yes, Teresa we are having sex. You know something you don't know about since you've never experienced it." "You son of a bitch!" She screamed then....."Smack!" She slapped him as hard as she could. The expressions on his face was just priceless. He looked like he was about to go and cry to his mommy. "You know, I thought you were mature like GWEN, but obviously you're nothing but a little teenager." Teresa dropped her dresses and ran crying to her room. Ethan went back to Gwen and they had their sex. Teresa cried for hours and hours. "I thought he loved me!" She shouted. "I'm just a little teenager! Oh I'll show you Ethan! I'll show you!" "Ring, ring!" She walked slowly to the phone and answered a pathetic, "Hello?" "Theresita, it's mama!" Pilar sounded excited. "Hi Mama!" "How are you? You sound sad." Pilar knew exactly what Teresa felt like. "I'm great!" She lied. "Theresita, don't lie to me." "Mama, I'm fine. I'm just homesick." "Well, you still have a week...." Teresa cut her off by saying, "I'm coming home tomorrow." "You are? Oh that's great! We'll have a big dinner celebrating your return." "Mama, that's not necessary." "Nonsense. I want to do this. Oh here's Miguel. He wants to talk to you." "Okay, Mama." "Hey Teresa!" He said so cheerfully. "Hi Miguel! How are you?" "Good, you?" "Better than I was ten minutes ago." "What's wrong?" "Oh nothing. I'm just homesick." "Aww don't worry. I hear you're coming home tomorrow." "Yeah. Hey would you mind picking me up from the airport?" "No, what time is your flight arriving?" "90 a.m." "Alright I'll be there." "Thanks, Miguel." "No problem." "Well, I have to go and pack. I'll talk to you soon." "Okay, bye sis."
