Chapter Eight : Lies and Arguments

Betty had just arrived at her Dads house, she was gonna have dinner with her family.

''Papi,I'm here.'' Betty said walking into the house.

''In the kitchen!'' She heard Hilda's voice reply.

''Hey Hilda,wheres Papi and Justin.'' Betty asked as she walked into the kitchen.

''Papi,went to the store to pick something up, and Justin's upstairs doing homework.'' Hilda said as she stirred something on the stove.

''Need any help with anything?'' Betty asked after taking off her coat and placing her bag on the table.

''No,everything's basically done,Papi went to pick up some stuff for the salad,when he comes back, we can eat.'' Hilda said.

''Ok,so...the other day you wanted to talk to me about something.'' Betty said remembering their conversation, when Hilda had showed up at her apartment unannounced.

''Oh...that,it doesn't matter anymore.'' Hilda said nonchalantly,but Betty could tell there was more to the story.

''What happened?'' Betty asked.

''Nothing...Archie and I broke up.'' Hilda again said nonchalantly,with a hint of sadness,most people wouldn't detect. But Betty was her sister and knew her better than other people.

''What! Why? I thought things were going great between you two.'' Betty said shocked.

''They were.'' Hilda said not saying anything else.

'' Then what happened?'' Betty asked.

''I really don't want to talk about it,okay?'' Hilda said slightly raising her voice.

''Okay.'' Betty said realizing she should just leave things alone. Hilda would talk about it when she was ready.

''So...whats new with you little sister?'' Hilda asked after turning the fire down to low and taking a seat at the table.

''Nothing,work,more work , surviving living with Amanda.'' Betty said laughing.

''Really,that's it, nothing else?'' Hilda said clearly fishing.

'' Yeah. '' Betty said slightly suspicious.

''So, nothing new in your love life?'' Hilda asked giving Betty a skeptic look.

''No...well there was the thing with Jesse,which really wasn't a thing at all, but that was awhile ago, you know that already.'' Betty said.

''Really,so there's no one new. No mysterious guy your keeping secret from us?'' Hilda said with an eyebrow raised.

''What, no...why would you even think that,I'm not dating anyone.'' Betty said stuttering a bit.

'' I never said you were dating anyone,you just confirmed it.'' Hilda said with a smirk.

''No,I didn't.'' Was all Betty could think to say.

''There's no point lying Betty, I saw you with him leaving your apartment yesterday.'' Hilda said.

''Him?'' Betty said realizing Hilda didn't know it was Daniel.

''Yes, tall brunette and handsome,at least from what I could so from his backside.'' Hilda said.

''Why were you spying on me?'' Betty said suddenly getting angry.

''Come on Betty did you really think I believed that ridiculous story about you going out with Christina. It was obvious you were going on a date. What I don't understand is why you would lie about it.'' Hilda said.

'' Because its none of your business.'' Betty said,not knowing how else to react.

'' Excuse me. I'm your older sister of course its my business. You've never lied to me about a guy before, I don't understand why you would do it now,is there something wrong with the guy?'' Hilda asked trying to understand.

''No...hes great.'' Betty said

''So there is a guy, I knew it. Whats his name,how did you meet,what does he do?'' Hilda said bombarding Betty with questions.

'' Would you just leave it alone. '' Betty said not ready to answer those questions, she and Daniel had agreed to tell their families together, and she was determined to wait till he got back from his trip to Philadelphia.

''Why wont you tell me who he is,is it someone I know already. Hey whats that.'' Hilda said spotting the charm bracelet on Betty's wrist,one she'd never seen before.

''Nothing.'' Betty said,but Hilda grabbed her wrist before she could stop her.

''This is new,did he give it to you...is that real gold?'' Hilda said studying the bracelet.

''Let go of my hand. '' Betty said choosing not to answer her sisters questions.

''Wait...D,B...real gold...someone I know...you're sleeping with your boss! '' Hilda said putting it all together.

'' I am not!'' Betty said.

''You're a terrible liar Betty.'' Hilda said.

''We're not sleeping together.'' Betty said.

''But you are dating?'' Hilda said.

''So, what if I am.'' Betty said realizing the cat was out of the bag, and that there was no use lying or trying to deny it.

"Betty,this is not a good idea, he's your boss, and he doesn't exactly have the best track record, when it comes to woman, you're going to get hurt, the best thing to do is to end this before he hurts you, cause he will hurt you, its the kind of guy he is. The fact that you've been keeping your relationship a secret is proof of that." Hilda said.

"First of all, you have no say in who I do, or do not date. It was both of our decision to keep it a secret, and Daniel's changed, hes not the same guy he was three years ago. He's caring and sweet, and I'm not going to end!" Betty said clearly angry.

" Come on Betty, he's a player, its all a game to him. Even if he has changed, once a player, always a player. Its only a matter of time before he breaks your heart, when..." Hilda said, but Betty cut her off.

"When what, when he moves on to someone who looks more like you, or Amanda, or any other model type out there, that isn't me !" Betty said knowing where Hilda was going.

"No,Betty that's not what I meant at all." Hilda said.

"Isn't it, you don't think I'm good enough, or pretty enough to be with him. Well you're wrong, there's this connection between us, something I've never felt with anyone else, not even Henry. You don't know Daniel, and after all that you just said, you don't know me either." Betty said than got up grabbing her coat and purse than headed for the door.

"Betty,wait! I'm sorry." Hilda said walking after her sister. Ignacio was walking through the door as Betty said a passing hello than stormed off.

"Betty? Hilda whats going on?" Ignacio asked puzzled.

"Nothing." Hilda said then stormed off upstairs.

"What about dinner?" Ignacio asked still confused.

"I think Aunt Betty and Mom had a fight, but I'll eat with you Grandpa." Justin said appearing.

"Thanks,mijo." Ignacio said then he and Justin headed for the kitchen.

Betty was on her way to the subway station, when her phone started to ring,Daniel, appeared on the screen. Betty didn't want to answer it, she was still feeling hurt by Hilda's words,but she knew Daniel would worry if she didn't answer the phone. So she took a deep breath then answered the call.

"Hello." Betty said.

"Hey,its me,Daniel." Daniel said then shook his head at himself, of course she knew it was him,he'd called her cell.

'' Hey, whats up?'' Betty asked.

"I just got out of the last meeting,I'll be heading back soon." Daniel said.

"From your tone, I'm guessing everything went great today." Betty said.

"I wouldn't say everything,but it went better than I expected,especially with Wilhelmina there." Daniel said.

"I bet she was trying to start all sorts of trouble for you." Betty said.

"Yeah,but I can handle anything she throws at me." Daniel said, and Betty could her the smirk, that was probably on his face.

"I know you can." Betty said smiling.

"What about you, how was your day at mode?" Daniel asked.

"Fine." Betty said,but Daniel could hear something in her voice.

"Hows dinner with your family, I don't hear anyone in the background, so you must be outside or something." Daniel said.

"That's because I'm on my way to the subway station." Betty said.

"What happened to dinner?" Daniel asked.

"I had to leave." Betty said.

"Why,what happened?" Daniel asked concerned.

"It's nothing, I just wasn't feeling well." Betty lied.

"Are you sure that's all it is?" Daniel asked not convinced.

"Yeah, I'm fine." Betty said.

"You're a horrible liar, you know that." Daniel said recognizing the tone she used when she was lying.

"And that's the second time, I've been told that today." Betty said sighing.

"So did something happen at your dads?" Daniel asked.

"No..." Betty said.

"Betty..." Daniel said , knowing she wasn't telling him the truth.

"I hate that you can do that. Hilda and I had an argument." Betty said.

"About what?" Daniel asked.

"It was nothing really,not even worth mentioning." Betty said.

"Then why do you sound so upset?" Daniel asked.

"I'm not,I'm ok really." Betty said.

"Then why am I not convinced,you know you can tell me anything. What kind of boyfriend would I be, if I wasn't there to listen,when you need me to." Daniel said.

"It was about you, us,ok, you happy now." Betty said angrily, not meaning to sound so harsh.

"Oh..." Daniel said not sure of what else to say.

"This is why I didn't want to say anything." Betty said as she approached the steps that would lead her down into the station.

"No,its ok. We can talk about it, when I'm back in town." Daniel said, having a feeling of what they might have argued about.

"But it'll be late then, you don't have to, we can talk tomorrow, when you're rested." Betty said.

"You sure?" Daniel asked.

"Yeah, we'll talk tomorrow. I've gotta catch my train,goodnight Daniel." Betty said.

"Goodnight Betty." Daniel said then hung up the phone.

Betty closed her phone and descended the stairs to the subway platform. She could hear the train coming, and as she waited for it to stop, she couldn't help but think about, all the things Hilda had said. Things that she herself had thought about. Was Hilda right, was she kidding herself about the relationship she now had with Daniel,her boss and best friend.

The train pulled to a stop, and with another sigh Betty walked on, mixed thoughts still running through her head.
