The Twin Bed (Wrong Bed)
Unjust
"AMBER!" jeff snapped while looking at Amber with a sharp look.
"There's enough of all the bad things you've said to Caitlyn. You don't deserve to say that to Caitlyn! She's your sister, Amber!"
"Keep defending that woman, Jeff! Because there is only one in your heart! You can never even look at me when I am pregnant with your flesh and blood! You're a savage man and you're never responsible, Jeff!"
"Tell me all you want but don't ever try to hurt Caitlyn! If another woman was in Caitlyn's position, there was no way she would want to meet a woman who was carrying her husband's flesh and blood, even with the greatness of her heart she asked her to marry her husband! Do you know, for me there's no woman like Caitlyn that's why I love her so much!"
"Keep defending your useless wife! Keep defending your wife who can't give you offspring! And you can still tell me that you love her so much? Only a foolish man would accept a barren woman like Caitlyn!"
PLAKKKK
Hearing Amber's words, Jeff did not have the power to swing his hand and landed the hand on Amber's cheek. Amber then looked at Caitlyn who was currently only able to fixate.
"You satisfied, Cat? Are you satisfied? Is this what you want from me? So that everyone hates me with your pretentious attitude! Just so you know Cat, I hate you so much! I hate you so much! I hate you so much because it's never been fair to me! Everyone loves you! Since childhood you have lived a happy and fulfilled life, unlike me who lives with suffering!"
"Amber enough!"
Amber then turned her gaze to the voice of a woman who was snapping at her. "Mommy" said Amber.
"Amber, it's not appropriate for you to say that to Caitlyn! Why do you have to blame Caitlyn for the mistake that Mommy and Daddy made? Since childhood have you lived a miserable and mediocre life? It was Mommy's fault! It was Mommy's fault that took you away! It's not Caitlyn's fault!"
"Yes, Mommy was wrong to take me away! Why isn't Caitlyn the only one Mommy brought? Why isn't Caitlyn the only one who's been suffering? Why should I be Mommy? Why should I always sacrifice my happiness for Caitlyn? Why should I always suffer? Why not just Caitlyn?"
Caitlyn then approached Amber and looked at her face with blank eyes. "Amber, if the time can be rotated. I'd like to exchange my position with you. Even for now, I want to give everything I have to you. Amber, you know, from the first moment I met you, I've felt a vibe that I can't make. You know, ever since I met you, it feels like I want to always protect you, love you, take care of you with all my heart. Amber, you know I'm actually so happy to know that if you're my brother, whether you believe it or not, I don't care."
"Aren't you tired of always pretending Cat? Aren't you tired of pretending to look good in front of all of them to keep everyone loving you and hating me? I'm so sick of seeing your attitude! I've been so sick and I hate you so much because the world was never fair to me!"
"AMBER!"
"What Jeff? You want to defend her again?"
"Yes, I will always defend her because she is my wife! Perhaps this is the answer to why my heart always rejects your presence! Maybe this is the answer to why I can never love you! Look at your attitude, Amber! Look attitude! I just realized that all this time you also always take advantage of the situation by looking weak in front of me, right? So that I feel pity and fall into your arms! So that I will always be by your side and finally leave my wife! Is that what you have in mind?"
Amber was just silent, that's when Edrick entered the house. "Are you all ready? We leave now, I'm done checking my car" Edrick told everyone in the house.
'Even Mommy always defended Caitlyn, ' Amber muttered when she saw Jenny get into Jeff's car.
"Come on Amber!" edrick's orders. Amber nodded her head with a smile. "What's the matter, Amber?" ask Edrick when he's on his way.
"It's okay. I'm just not comfortable with them, especially Caitlyn."
"Do you hate your twin brother?" ask Edrick.
Amber was silent. "So you hate Caitlyn?"
"Life is not fair Ed, Caitlyn always got affection and what she wanted. Not like me. It feels like life is really unfair!"
"You're wrong, Amber. You're wrong."
"Wrongly? Whatchu mean?"
"Caitlyn's life isn't what you think it is, Caitlyn's life isn't as beautiful as you think it is" Edrick said.
"What do you mean, Ed?"
"As far as you know, I knew Caitlyn when we were in school. Do you know what it's like to live with a stepmother? You don't feel what Caitlyn's feeling Amber. Indeed, at that time Caitlyn never told me anything but I knew all this time she lived depressed with Aunty Diane's attitude to her."
"Didn't Aunty Diane really love Caitlyn?"
"The affection of a biological mother with a stepmother remains different Amber, all this time she has never felt the affection of a biological mother as you feel. That is why Caitlyn is trying to realize her dream of becoming a model so that she can live independently and get out of her parents' house as soon as possible. Aunty Diane's attitude had even changed in the past few years as she began to realize her mistake. But as it turns out, Caitlyn's decision to move into an apartment was bad for her."
"badly impact? What do you mean, Ed?"
"You know what, Caitlyn is so pretty? Her beauty certainly invites the attention of many people to be her lover. No exception with one of our friends during college who was repeatedly denied love by Caitlyn. He then took advantage of the situation to snatch Caitlyn's chastity in Caitlyn's apartment. At that time Caitlyn really felt down for a year. One year he had a bad time until he finally met Jeff. At that time I was always beside Caitlyn, but somehow my presence and Jeff's presence were so different for her. I was very angry when Cat decided to marry Jeff because I had always been by his side. And you know, as long as Caitlyn and Jeff are married, I'm always disturbing their household. I'm evil, Amber. And that's my past that I want to fix. Now, can you still say that Caitlyn's life is much happier than yours?"
Amber was silent.
