AN OLD FRIEND
AN OLD FRIEND
“This is crazy! I need to calm down. I can do this, it's just a family meeting right?” Calm down, keep calm. She closed her eyes and took a deep long breath. Suddenly her phone ringtone startled her. She rushed back to the bed and picked it up from where she had dropped it. It was her old friend from high school calling. “No way, Dorris?” She muttered surprised yet excited. It's been ages since they have seen each other, and the fact that it was a video call made it more exciting. She quickly swiped right. “Look at you!” Dorris exclaimed happily. “Dorris? It's really you!” Angela replied near tears, she covered her mouth trying not to cry. “Angela, you are looking so good, those freckles are still there, cute, your boobies are now larger than mine, so jealous.” “Dorris, you are disgusting.” Angela's face flushed, then she heard tiny voices calling on her. The twins started peeking into Dorris' phone camera. “You visited my home?” Angela asked, now crying happily seeing her friend with the twins. “Yes, I missed you best. So sad I didn't meet you here. I met them cuties, Jace told me they are yours but the babies refer to you as their mother, they missed you so much.” Angela felt a bit guilty abandoning them like that. “Aww I miss them too, I can't wait to see them.” “Anyway, I am back in town, and I have been dying to ask you this... Angela, are you really engaged to Antonio Montero?” Angela's face went blank. “No! I mean... It's... complicated.” She sniffed. “How complicated?” Angela looked around instinctively to check the cameras around. “Can we talk about this later?” “No baby girl answer me I had to confirm this, It was trending all over the internet. I was shocked, and believed it to be rumours. Now your brother Jace said it's true, I said I will hear it from the horse's mouth.” Dorris insisted. Angela sighed. “Fine, I am engaged to Antonio Montero.” “Oh my goodness, you are Angela Montero!” “Please don’t call me that, it's a contract, don't tell anyone” Angela replied with a sigh and thumbed the elevator and went in. “Contract, so fake?” Dorris whispered. “Yeah, my biggest mistake, his old woman made me agree to it, call it emotional blackmail.” Dorris chuckled lightly. “So how are you doing my friend, very good or incredibly good, huh?” “None of the above.” “Kidding obviously.” Angela rolled her eyes and hissed. “Of course I am not, I hate it here and for real.” “Girl you are living the dream of every single woman out there.” “It was... (lowers her voice) a fake engagement.” “So what?” “A fucking fake engagement Dorris, do you know how the old woman would feel if she gets to find out? She will have a heart attack and die.” Angela replied. “Well, that's only if she gets to find out. Huh?” Dorris raised her shoulders. “Dorris you will never understand.” Angela replied. “Girlfriend, I don't know what your problem is but if I have a chance with any of the Monteros, I don't care if it's the sons or daughters, it will be a match made in heaven for me.” “Wait, did you say sons?” Angela asked curiously. “Oh yeah, the father Eugene had two sons outside the family. Damon and Alexander but Antonio made the public believe that those two are not part of Montero's family.” “Wow, never heard of them.” “Girl, you really don't know Alexander or Damon. They are very popular too but not as popular as Antonio. You really need to step up in your social life.” “The father, is he still alive?” “Yes of course, it was rumoured that he is not in good terms with his son Antonio and since Antonio is very popular, none of the journalists dare write anything about the other two sons, the only person who dared to introduce them was sued by Antonio, isn't he so powerful? He is fearless.” “Wow, you know a lot about this messed up family more than I do? So Antonio is basically the villain in the family. He sued someone for telling the world he had brothers?” “That was a long time ago, I think people now recognize Alex and Damon as the Monteros too, they are gaining popularity too. Alex is a very good looking man, he is just as hot as Antonio, people said one of the reasons Antonio was finding it difficult to accept them as his step-brothers was because Alex is better looking than him, which I don't see, maybe because I am a big fan of his.” “What a Maniac, and people love him because of what?” “Well he is handsome duh...” “He is terrible! He treats women like a fucking sex dolls in the bedroom, he is a fucking psychopath!” “Oh my gosh!” Dorris gasped. “Yes I tell you he is!” “No, it's not about him, you!” Angela blinked. “What... me? What about me?” “Angela you did it with him right? That's why you know about his bedroom skills, you finally had sex!” “I didn't, not with him. Never! And can you keep your voice down, you are in my house, the twins are around.” Angela whispered. Dorris lowered her eyelids as if in doubt of what she had said. “You mean you are still a virgin, how can you be a virgin around a man like Antonio? Girl, does it make sense.” Angela hates to admit but Dorris does have a point. Talking about how she lost her mind and kissed him back there she almost went all the way with that terrible good looking man. “He may be good looking but he is toxic.” She replied. “You really don’t like Anthonio Montero, like seriously who doesn’t love that angel?” She asked. “Okay, first he is nothing close to an angel, it’s an insult to angels to say that” Angela corrected and rolled her eyes. “Angela, over 500 million women all over the world, who are his fans, think he is.” “Wow! I don't know what to say, I guess I am the only one not impressed by his looks” Angela commented. “You are never impressed by a man’s look, Angela, when will you come out of your shell and let a man love you and clear those webs off your sealed honey pot, or are you into women, because if a man like Antonio cannot rizz you up no human male can.” “I am not a homosexual okay? I love men, I am just not fit for today's dating style, okay, I can't have sex with a man that I am not married to.” Dorris sighed. “Oh poor Angela, is this because of, you know… past?” “Yes... I am not going to end up a single mother... My mother was deceived. Now look at Kerry, I should be a good example for the twins. I can't risk it.” The elevator stopped.
