Chapter 5- Accused
Bella
Monday April 16
When I arrived home I heard a voice ask me, "Mrs. Newton, where have you been?"
I looked up to meet the eyes that asked that question.
I felt my eyes pop and my mouth drop open. A woman with blond hair was standing there with her arms crossed over her chest glaring at me. I have never seen her before.
"May I ask who you are and what are you doing in my house?" I copied her posture.
She glared harder and answered, "Well that's my business isn't it?" She laughed then walked towards the door. She stopped and whispered in my ear, "I know that you have a secret and I will find out what it is. Don't worry because I have one too, but I'm afraid I can't tell you what that is." She winked and walked out the door. I felt two arms wrap around my waist.
"Where have you been, Mrs. Newton?" He started kissing my neck but I pulled away.
"Uhm…I have to go."
He scoffed. "But you just got here."
"I forgot to do something."
"Yeah you did. Me."
"Mike please, not now."
I turned around without a backwards glance.
"Bella, can't we forget about the world for once?" He grabbed my arm and turned me so that I was facing him.
"I have a question. Who was that woman?"
"What woman?"
"Oh Mike, stop playing around. You know who I'm talking about."
"You mean that one lady?"
I stared at him waiting for an answer.
"Yeah she's a friend of mine."
"Oh really, from where?"
"Err. From work." I looked him in the eyes. I shook my head and ran to my car, as I drove away I heard him yelling my name.
But I didn't care.
I didn't look back.
All I wanted was Edward.
The one thing I couldn't have.
