Fred

RAYNE’S POV.Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

After we had finished having breakfast, we walked out of the restaurant, but just when we were almost close to where the car was parked, Eric’s phone rang and he excused himself to go take it.

“Go wait in the car.” He said and walked away into the car lot and I continued towards the car when I heard a familiar voice call out my name. I stopped and turned around to see Fred standing right behind me, looking as well groomed and handsome as the last time I stood face to face with him.

It was a shame seeing him looking great while I stayed at the receiving end of his infidelity. Seeing him only reminded me of my hurts and what I had seen and heard that night. But I also couldn’t help but wonder what he was doing there.

A part of me wanted to run to him and give him a big hug and tell him how much I missed him, whereas the other part scolded my foolish thoughts and reminded me that I was now married and betrothed to Eric.

But, for what reason was he there, had he been following me? Probably he had come to realize his mistake and decided to apologize. Probably, there was some meaningful explanation behind what I had seen that night.

Stupid me!

I was willing to listen to him and probably even forgive him if he apologized, but I was wrong, he wasn’t there because he had realized he made a mistake. Instead, he was there with someone.

“Fred love…” A female voice called. I could recognize that familiar sultry feminine alto. It was a voice I had come to be familiar with, one I could recognize even in a deep sleep.

A dark haired girl ran towards him from the back and wrapped her arms around Fred’s waist. It was Sarah. But, why was Sarah with Fred and that too, in such close proximity?

Sarah looked in my direction and her eyes grew wide when she saw me, but then in the next minute, it was replaced with a bright smile that reached her naturally bright blue eyes, then she linked her arm with Fred’s and shifted even the more closer to him, if it were possible to get any closer than she already was. Then she called my name with a tone she had never used on me before.

“Rayne…” She called, eyeing me from head to foot. “What are you doing in Los Angeles, thought you were in Washington to visit your cousin?” She asked me, while circling a finger around Fred’s arm.

“Uhm… something came up, and I had to return to Los Angeles.” I lied, staring at their linked arms in confusion. I couldn’t quite comprehend what was happening. Then, as if reading my confusion, she smiled at me.

“Fred and I are dating.” She said, smiling lovingly at Fred and he kissed her on the lips and she responded. The sight of it triggered my eyes and I felt tears welling at the back of my eyeballs. Something deep down told me that Sarah was the girl from that might, but I didn’t want to believe it that someone I had called my friend and shared my entire privacy with could do such to me. I watched them act all lovey-dovey in front of me and I felt disgusted. Sarah smiled while saying something to Fred, then he nodded at her.

“Got to get going, Rayne.” She said, with a bright smile. But, I wasn’t a fool to know what that smile meant. “I’d catch you some other time. Fred and I have somewhere to be.” Then she walked away with Fred.

I clutched my chest tightly as the feeling of betrayal overwhelmed me. I could feel my heart burning up. I thought I had gotten over Fred and his infidelity. I thought I was beginning to get over it all, but guess I was wrong. And all the new discovery had done was peel open all of my old wounds. I wasn’t sure I was going to heal from the hurt.

“Mrs. Rayne.” I heard my name and turned to see the chauffeur standing beside me. “Please get into the car.” He said and I couldn’t respond, I simply nodded and followed behind him. He opened the car’s door for me and I lifelessly climbed into the backseat. I caught a glimpse of Eric sitting there, but that was all. I didn’t want to look at him. I wasn’t in the mood to. I just wanted to wrap myself in my own arms and cuddle myself while I cry. I wanted so badly to be left alone.

I crossed my arms over my shoulders and pinned my eyes on the window.
