Three days ago…

’’… I was so worried, you just disappeared without a warning; you didn’t even call me, I thought we were friends!’’ Bella scolded. She had come all the way to Veronica’s home after confirming from her mom that she was at home.

’’I’m sorry for not calling, everything happened so fast, so I had to leave on short notice.’’

Veronica apologized with a smile.

’’No worries, I’m happy that you’re fine now. I’m no longer bothered after seeing you. ’’ They both laughed;

’’Yes, did you have any issues with Gwen, Tiana’s sister? Was that why you left?’’ Bella asked, pulling closer to her;

Veronica was quiet for a second;

’’No… no issues at all, I just decided to leave, I got a better place to work…’’ she stammered;

’’Mm… I see, where? ’’

’’Mm, at McDonalds; the time is flexible and I get a lot of benefits. ’’

’’Mm, interesting, but it seemed fishy when Gwen left almost immediately without notice too. She made her sister worry so much, if not for the fact that she had taken her bags, Tiana almost filed a missing person report.’’

Veronica kept quiet. Although Bella had come to see her, she also had other plans in mind.

’’I was surprised when she returned a few days later, I wonder why she left in the first place when she was going to come back.’’

Veronica looked down at her palms as they lay folded on her laps.

The room was quiet for a few seconds; Bella knew she was hiding something.

’’Now you aren’t working in the house anymore, are you ready to tell me what transpired between you and Gwen. I really noticed that you both were always going in and out of hidden corners in the house, what were you both talking about? You know Tiana was involved in an accident right? You heard from the news?’’

Veronica nodded. Ever since she heard the news she had not been at peace, and seeing how everything turned in favor of Gwen, she felt that she had a hand in the accident. Even watching her crocodile tears in front of the media made her stomach churn. But she was afraid, what if she said something and it got her in trouble?

Gwen was now famous, she could harm her easily now, it wasn’t like before, and besides she had already taken money to keep her mouth shut.

’’I saw in the news, I hear she hasn’t woken up yet. ’’

’’mm, she’s in coma. I went to see her a few days ago, and she wasn’t looking too good, it’s been weeks and the doctors aren’t saying anything.’’ Bella drew closer to Veronica and whispered;

’’I heard that she hurt her head severely that’s why she isn’t able to wake up, but it’s just a rumor, I’m not sure. ’’

Veronica eyed her; ’’then don’t say things you aren’t sure of at all. ’’

Bella sighed; ’’I know, I just pray everything would turn out alright.’’

Veronica nodded.

’’Yes, I was asking what went on between you and Gwen, why did you guys become close suddenly? ’’

’’It was nothing, just talking about a few things, that’s all. ’’

Bella stared at her, she seemed uncomfortable talking about it, and so she decided not to push further.

’’Alright, I hope you’re fine. The house had been super boring without you. And now that Tiana is sick and Nicklaus spends most of his time with her in the hospital, the house is basically like a graveyard.’’

’’What about Gwen, is she still living in the house? ’’

Bella shook her head;

’’No, when she became super famous, she had to leave, before rumors about her having an affair with Nicklaus would start to spread and destroy her career.’’

Veronica bit her lower lip. She hasn’t even slept well after knowing about Tiana’s accident, knowing that she could have done something about it but she didn’t. And things would become worse due to her silence;

’’Alright Ver; I have to go now. It was nice seeing you; come visit some other time, okay? ’’ Bella said, standing up;

’’Bella, wait, I want to tell you something. ’’

Veronica cut her off, and Bella sat down back, her eyes widened as she drew closer to her;

’’What is it? ’’

’’There’s something I need to tell you… ’’

Bella listened attentively with eyes and lips wide open.

’’Bella, this was not part of the plan, I’m not sure she masterminded it, but I didn’t know she would go to this extent, even the herbs she said I should put in her meal, I couldn’t bring myself to put them, I’m so sorry. I know I’ve done a grave harm, and there’s no going back from here, but I just needed to tell someone. ’’

Bella blinked as she stared at Veronica, unable to process what she had just heard.

’’So you mean that Gwen, Tiana’s sister has affections for her husband? And even went ahead to plan against her sister? ’’

Veronica nodded. Bella brushed her hair with her hands, the information was brain shattering.

’’I can’t believe my ears. How? How is that possible? Do you see how much Tiana loves her sister? She basically does everything she wants! How could she even think of harming her? Is that even fair? Is she that wicked! How are we sure that she didn’t orchestrate the accident?’’

’’That’s what i don’t know, I haven’t been able to sleep.’’

’’And to think she had been weeping fake tears for the media pretending that she is heartbroken about her sister’s illness. She looks like she cannot hurt a fly, who would ever think that she can actually plan such a hateful thing! ’’

Bella turned to Veronica;

’’And how could you? How could you? What did Tiana do to deserve this? ’’

’’I’m so sorry, I just wanted some money I didn’t think Gwen was that evil, and there are things that you should never get to know, else you’re stuck, I guess this is one of those things. ’’

Bella sighed;

’’Now I can connect the dots, no wonder she prepared his meals herself and served him, although he barely ate. And whenever he was home, she especially wore shore clothes; we didn’t see it as anything because no-one would ever suspect that she could even nurse such evil thoughts in her heart! ’’

Veronica sighed;

’’what do I do? How can I make things right? ’’
