A letter to fate

Bella's Pov

I knew Grey was lying, it was so obvious, I just didn't know Why he was lying.

if Suzie wanted to talk to me, she'll tell me directly, she won't tell Grey.

It was either he was planning a surprise and didn't want me to know or something was up.

I didn't want to argue, I just agreed.

When I got into the car, I tried calling Suzie, but she was on another call so I didn't call again.

Her house wasn't so far from the restaurant so we reached there in less than 10 minutes.

The security didn't even bother asking who I was or my purpose of visit, they knew me too well already, they just let me in.

As soon as we got into the house, it started raining.

I walked into the living room quietly, about to call her name when I heard her sounding tensed on a phone call.

..."Martins, what the fuck are you telling me, that's impossible..."

..." I'm telling you the truth, but I don't believe it, they said they've done multiple DNA tests on them, it's true Suzie, they're siblings...".

..." how can they be siblings, for God's sake Martins, they have a child, a fucken baby!!.."

wait for what? who are they talking about?

"...I told Grey to come over, the investigators and the doctors are here, I just don't know how he's going to take it..."

..."Grey will die, Martins, Bella will commit suicide, that's exactly what's going to happen, Bella and Grey cannot be siblings, that's impossible, the tests are lies, the investigations, everything is a lie!"...

..." look Suzie just don't tell Bella, not yet... please don't tell her..."

"Don't tell her what?" I asked finally finding my voice.

Suzie immediately turned and saw me behind her. Her face was nervous and sympathetic.

..." Suzie, Suzie can you hear me?"...

Martins said from the other side of the call.

She immediately cut the call.

"Uhm, nothing.. nothing at all... we're just Uhm... we're just uhm..."

"Tell me what I heard is a lie," I said coldly.

She didn't say anything, she was unable to speak.

I dropped Anastasia down and she skipped away, unaware of what was going on.

"Susan" I called her full name for the first time in almost 19 years.

"Tell me what I heard is a lie!!" I said with my voice rising.

She flinched at my sudden change of tone.

"B...Bel... Bella...y.. you need to calm down.. ok?.. just.. just relax.. it's... it's... it's...."

I immediately grabbed her two arms holding her very tightly, our bodies only an inch away staring at her straight in the eyes.

"Tell me what I fucken heard on the phone call between you and Martins is a lie!!" I screamed.

"I don't know!" she cried.

" I don't fucken know okay? I don't know!!! I don't believe it but I don't know!!" she cried again.

I let her go slowly.

I looked her straight in the eyes.

"This better be a joke," I said and stormed out of the house under the rain.

"Bella wait, just calm down please" I heard Suzie say behind me, but it was too late, I'd already gone.

I started walking under the rain, unaware of my surrounding, unaware of where I am, my mind was racing with thoughts, how? fuck how? Grey can't be my missing brother, that's impossible...it's not fucken possible... for God's sake I'm married to him...we have a child...a fucken child...hooowww!!!

Fate you again?

you again?

I thought you were gone.

I thought you'd finally Left me.

All these years you didn't leave...

you were only planning something bigger??!

My lips and hands were trembling, where the fuck did I think I was going? my house? under this rain? am I crazy?

No wait, at this point, I am crazy right now, so I don't mind.

I didn't know how long I was walking. Seven minutes? Ten minutes? Twenty? All I knew was that I saw myself in front of my house...

As soon as I walked in, I saw Grey coming outside with people following him, he looked furious.

As soon as his eyes met mine, he suddenly softened, he knows I know.

I asked him to tell me it was a lie that was all I needed right now, for everyone to start laughing and scream April fools even tho we were in March.

For him to pull me in his arms and tell me it was a joke and let all this end.

But none of that happened, and someone repeated it, making it sound so real, too real to believe.

"Baby I don't believe all that okay? It's not true, it's not possible, we'll do as many DNA tests as possible, a hundred a thousand, Just believe me " he said.

I didn't say anything, I didn't even know what to say.

He turned to the men behind him.

"What the fuck are you even saying? For God's sake I'm not even adopted, I know my real parents !" he screamed.

"Actually sir, after some investigations, we realized that you are not the true child of Mr. Sanez Hampton, you can ask him yourself, he actually opened up to us about Adopting you, and even your caretaker Mrs. Benson confirmed it too.

You'll have to hear the rest of the story from your family sir, we did a lot of investigations before coming to give you this conclusion."

Grey started shaking his head vigorously.

"You're all fucken lairs!! You're all saying this because you know my mother is dead and I can't ask her if it's true or not !!" he screamed.

"I'm afraid not sir, that's just the truth, feel free to confirm this from Mrs. Benson ."

Grey turned to me.

"Baby...please get out of the rain," he said. Trying to hold me.

I flinched, and I just realized I was crying ...not just crying but deep in tears...

Grey cant be my brother, fuck no!! We've had sex!! Noooo

"Grey what if it's true " I choked out wiping my tears.

"It's not true baby, just calm down ..."

"But what if!!" I screamed !!

"What if it's true Grey? What if?! what are we gonna do? What are we going to do about Ana? What happens to her after now? What happens to us?!!" I was crying uncontrollably.

Just an hour ago, we were promising each other nothing will pull us apart, we were just one happy family, now.....now I don't even know what we are...

He pulled me into a hug right under the rain.

He was crying, I was crying ...we were both in tears.

"It's not true baby, please don't make me doubt my words, please don't " he whispered in tears.

I buried my head in his chest.

God please no matter the sin I've committed, don't let this be true please ...this has been my only source of happiness, please.

And even if you want to punish me, please don't ...for the sake of Ana.

How is she going to grow up with a stigma that her parents were siblings ?!!

God please, just do it for Ana.
