5 : PLOT TWIST
WON'S POV
I dropped Ezra at her house and came back to my apartment that my dad brought me in New York.
I'm Won, Won William. Son of James William, one of the most successful businessmen in the world.
I live in England but we have many other companies in different countries. I and Ezra came to New York for a business deal for a few months. After that deal, we will go back to England again.
My mobile rang. I clicked the answer button and put that on my ear. "Hey, Dad". I greeted.
" I'm so sorry my son. I was so busy. I wasn't able to attend your engagement ceremony. I know it was a big day for you but I didn't manage to attend. That's why I sent Mr. Romon instead. I'm really sorry my son". He said and showed his fake concerns again.
I knew it before that he's not going to come here. "It's okay dad. I don't mind it . You must be really busy. I'm so tired now . I'll talk to you later". With that ended the call.
My dad always acts like he cares a lot about me but I know he doesn't. He has given me a luxurious life, high education, reputation, popularity everything that any boy wants from his life. But he never gave me his time, his attention, his love. I'm invisible until he needs me.
My dad said that my mother died in a car accident when I was three. I have spent my whole life with him but not actually with him. He mostly goes out of town, out of the country on his business trips. I don't why he is so busy. He only allows me to take care of J.W. enterprises. I'm the CEO of that company. He wants me to take care of this company only. He doesn't want me to interfere in his business.
After my mother's death, he hired a man to take care of me. That's Mr. Romon. He is the one who raised me. He is like a father figure to me. Today in my engagement he was the one who was standing beside me instead of my father.
Anyway, it was not a big day for me. I and Ezra only got engaged because of our business purpose.
Ezra, she is my best friend from kindergarten and the daughter of my father's friend. We are not more than a friend but because of our business collaboration, we are in this fake relationship.
Ezra, she is talented, confident, and a great businesswoman. Even after all this, she is not rude. She's beautiful, she's just perfect in every way. We are the same in many ways as we have been raised together.
Her father is also like mine because of that we have spent so much time together. We are very close to each other. But I don't want to marry her.
I'm always surrounded by millionaires and billionaires they must look happy always but the fact is they are fake. We always have to act differently in front of other people and I don't want to spend my life like this. I want to live peacefully not surrounded by fake people. I feel suffocating between them.
Some people literally love being alone at home, in their own space, comfortably but I'm not like them also. I want freedom. I want to be as free as the ocean. I want to travel the whole world without any worries. I don't want to be a robot of my dad's orders. I want to live independently.
I have been snowed under my whole life but now I feel a need of someone who will love me, not my money, status or reputation. I want a girl with the same dream as mine. I want a girl who will make me feel special. I want to be loved.
Maybe I'm like this because I never had a mother. Maybe that's why I am searching for someone who will hold my hand and will never let go of me.
I have a whole galaxy but I only want a star. A star that would be mine and only. Sometimes I think I am crazy because I see things so differently than anyone else. Sometimes It feels like I'm far away from this world.
ANNA'S POV
I woke up with a bad headache. Mr. Gonzalez gave us 2 days off because we were all very tired. So today I don't have anything to do. I tied my hair in a messy bun and went to the washroom. After getting freshen up I made breakfast and went to my bedroom with the tray in my hands.
I turned on the television and sat in front of it while eating with one hand and the other was busy changing the channels but I stopped when I saw Tan in news.
"The famous businessman James William's son, Mr. Won William got engaged last night in plaza hotel with his girlfriend Miss Ezra Miller-".
My mind stopped working at that point. What the hell is happening?. Why is this news reporter calling him Won?. Why is Tan is on the television suddenly?. Is Tan fooling Ezra?.
'I am going to be crazy if I'll think any more about'.
I should do something before I actually lose my mind.
'Think Anna,
think something'
I eventually got an idea 'why should not I go to a club tonight'. I never have visited there before but maybe I'll move on if I'll try to do something new. 'Great'
I quickly jumped from my bed and started searching proper dress to wear in a club. 'But wait I don't have any party wears'. I only have casual dresses like t-shirts, shorts hoodies and all and I can't go to the club wearing that.
I was about to close my wardrobe in disappointment but my eye landed on a box. I quickly opened it and took out a black, glittery dress from it. This was a gift from Ashley on my birthday.
I quickly went to the bathroom and wore it to check but it was too short, not even reaching till my mid-thighs. Even my hairs were lengthier than the dress. It was too revealing.
Never,
I'll never wear it,
Never in my wildest dream
---Time Skipped---
After 10:00pm. I wore that dress it was very uncomfortable but I don't have any other choice. I finished doing my make-up, tied my hair in a high ponytail, put on my high heels, and went to the club in a taxi.
As I reach the club gate I lost my confidence. 'I think I shouldn't have come here. I turned back to go home but a drunk man stopped me. "Are you lost, Princess?". He asked me. I shook my head in no. He was so scary. I turned and started walking towards the club again. My heels were not helping me either but I went inside as quickly as possible.
It was very crowded, some people were drinking, some were dancing, some peoples were even drunk. I'm very scared of drunk people. I decided to sit on the tool near the bar. There was 3 tool a girl was sitting on one of them her back was facing me. I walked there and made myself sit on one of them too.
"What would you like to drink?". Bartender asked me.
"Ummm... any Soft drinks ?". I said. He examined me for a second because my words were not suitable with my dress. "Sure mam". He said and within a minute he handed me a glass of soft drink.
I glanced at the dancefloor, people were dancing there and I was enjoying looking at them. 'This place isn't that bad I guess'. I thought to myself.
"Wanna dance with me baby girl ?". I heard a very familiar voice. I turned to see. It was Tan he was wearing all black with a black leather jacket, looking handsome as ever but he was not asking me he was talking to the girl who was sitting next to me. He didn't even saw me.
I was shocked. 'Yesterday, just yesterday he got engaged and he is flirting with some other girl already. What about Ezra?'.
I don't know where this confidence comes from. I stand up on my feet angrily. " Tan? ". I called him as he turned around I slapped him on his face.
"How dare you? ". He stopped speaking any after when he noticed that it was actually me. He was looking so shocked because I know he was not expecting this from me.
"How dare me? ". I asked pointing a finger towards myself. " How dare you to cheat on Ezra?. How can you do this to her?". I seethed.
"What the hell are you doing here ?". He yelled in anger. "That's none of your business. Don't try to change the topic. Tell me why are you doing this to Ezra ?". I asked.
"Who is Ezra ?". He asked. Relaxing his shoulders.
I chuckled." Who is Ezra hun? Let me remind you... last night you got engaged with your girlfriend who's name was Ezra. Did you get your memory back now Mr. Won William?". I said sarcastically and smirked at him. By now everyone in the club gathered around us.
Just a second later he grabbed my wrist and pulled me with him outside the club in the parking area. I tried to free my hand but he was holding it too tightly. " Where are you taking me?. Let go of me?". I shouted but he still draged me with him.
Soon he pinned me harshly to the wall and blocked me in between his arms. Our faces were only inches away from each other. My chest was moving back and forth because of my heavy breathing, my heart was beating at its highest level.
"What else do you know about Won?" He asked showing big eyes. Veins were popping inside of them.
"What do you mean about Won?. Don't pretend like you are someone else. You can fool anyone else but you can't fool me. I know you are Tan. And I'm not afraid of you". I snap.
"Damn". He yelled and slammed his fist beside me. I flinched. He pulled out his gun from his pocket and placed it's front sight on my temple. I stopped breathing when I saw the gun.
" Yes I'm Tan. I'm Won's twin brother that's enough for you to know. Now tell me what else you know about him".
My whole life was a lie... It means that they are two different persons. It means the person who got engaged last night is not Tan but his twin Won. It means Tan was really in Paris that day and the person who was in the hotel with Ezra was not Tan but actually Won. That's why the news reporter was calling him Won. It all makes sense now.
