Chapter 25: Chapter 25

**BRUNO'S POV**

When I got home my sister could tell, something happened,I got dressed and my hair trimmed up by my personal barber

I got the best tuxedo and dash off to pick her from home

Only on my way,I get to realize she didn't tell me her address,I stopped at an eatry,

got soda and called Jessi

"Alright I will send her number"

I was glad ,it went smoothly

I thrust my hand in my pant pocket and got the ring box,smiling at it

My phone beeped

Jessi's text, hopefully it was Beauty's number ,as quick as a flash,i happily copied the number to my contacts.

I dailed her number many times but she didn't answer,I don't think giving up is in my mind anymore,I kept trying and trying finally she picked up my call.

"Hello"

She sounded different,I noticed the difference in her voice abit but ...who cares

"Hello,baby...am sorry ,I am totally lost (laughs awkwardly), please I need address to pick you up"I said, embarrassed.

She chuckled lightly,it was hopeful and nice to hear her laugh again.

"Oh...don't worry am at your gate already, but where are you exactly?"she asked.

I scratched my hair and looked around.

"Can't tell,I was so happy ,I just drove off,when I finally realized you gave me no address,I stopped at an eatry ,Mr fries"I said rubbed my face in shame.

"Oh..alright then"she chuckled.

I dashed out ,I totally forgot my car and the fact that I drove to the place,I stood by the road side waving at a cab, before I finally got to my actual sense,I laughed out at how stupid I had been these times.

I got back to the parking lot,my cat keys were jingling in arms as I increase my pace,heading to where I parked my car.

I was so excited,that if I had accident and died, certainty I will happily rest in peace,to express how happy I was.

I drove all the way back home, stopped at a flower shop ,i got roses for her,they smelt nice

Then finally I got home, I drove into the compound and went straight into the room

"Oh there you are!, our birthday boy"

Granny said,she looked all glammed up as she walked in her dinner gown towards me.

I forced a smile,I thought the first person I would see was Beauty,i searched for Beauty codely but I couldn't find her.

Granny approached me with her hands wide opened.

I hugged granny

"You look lovely grandma"

"Aww!,thank you,my face feels so heavy though,the number of foundation applied on this face will shock you,Aby said she wanted to give me a makeover so i let her,she is a wholesome of trouble"she said with a sigh.

I smiled at her

"Come darling,I have a surprise for you"

She took me by the hand and we both walked upstairs to my room.

"What's the surprise granny,is it a gift?"

"Yeah ,kind of is a person waiting for you".

I guess it must be Bea,I pretended not to be aware.

"Someone is waiting already?"I asked her in a whisper.

She nodded,we got to the door,she stopped and let go of my hands

"Make sure you put things right this time, good luck".

Granny whispered to me and left.I stood there and took a deep breathe, before I opened the door.

The lady stood in the middle of the room with her back towards my direction,so I couldn't see her face.

From her backview,you can tell that ,she is one of those woman ,whose body do things to a man

Her tiny waist to her round curves,the high slit,showing her neat pale laps to her legs.

I looked closer she got same birthmark at her upper back as Beauty.

"Guess who?"she said.

"Beauty?"

Then,she turned with a smile,her captivating smile is still the same as always.

"Hello Bruno"

I was speechless she's unbelievably gorgeous and beautiful and.... different.

"Happy birthday my love,I hope you enjoy your this one more than last time,"

I chuckled shyly.

She walked up to me and stroke my neck ,I could feel her breath over my face,I leaned to kiss her,she stopped me with a finger on my lips,staring at them ,biting her lower lip seductively,I looked up at her bit sad about that,but I love her more at times like this because,it makes me want her more.

"I love you but I don't think you do love me anymore".

She said sadly,with her hands folder and lips pouted.

"What are you talking about baby I love you and will always do"

"Let's not rush ourselves okay"

She said seductively in my ears and bite my ear a little,it sent a ringing feeling down my spine.

"I will be waiting for my dance at the dance floor".

She said and walked out of the room,I shook my head as I watched her catwalked dramatically out of the room,she got to the door,and turned to me,blew a flying kiss then left the room.

I fall on the bed, chuckling with my eyes closed,smiling sheepishly like a love strucked victim.

Few minutes later ,I got down to the reception,the party was on already, everyone showed off their dance skills,I was nodding to the music and jamming to the tones as I searched for her.

My sister Any approached me for a dance,I tried to avoid but she was impossible to avoid.

"Come on why are you saying away ,am your only sister have a dance with me baby bro"

"Don't call me that,and not to talk of with everyone in here,I am an adult call me by my name"I whispered to her.

She chuckled.

"You are cute as always,come on let's dance"

She pulled me and we both went to the dance floor.

"The celebrant Mr Bruno and his sister Abigail!!'

The dj announced dance battle.

"No!!"

I said waving at the dj.

"Go Bruno!!"the guests started shouting.

"Come on let's do it birthday boy!,lossen up!!"

Abigail said,forcing her muscles,she did a split ,the admirers cheered for her, distracted by the people's attention ,I took that opportunity to escape from her.

"Where is Beauty?"I mumbled losing my patience,then I walked out of the crowded area onnly to find her dancing with one of my friends from college.

I tried not to be a fool and react as a jealous teenager,it was hard to stay composed,then our eyes met,she noticed me.

I smiled back awakening,thinking she will let go of the asshole and come to daddy but she went on dancing,that ripped my heart into shreds.

"Really is this your way of getting back at me Beauty"I said in my head.i thrust my hand in my pocket,there I can hide my anger by squeezing my fist without anyone noticing.

I waited few mins for her to get over to my side but she made no move to leave her dancing partner.

I went to the bar,I ordered for a glass of hot wine,which was given to me within a minute,I took it down my throat at once and pretended to be interested in one of those hotties that always does things to get my attention.

A group of three friends noticing my stare,they waved at me shaking their butts intentionally to show off,one of them whispered the other and they approached me.

I smiled at how smooth ,my plan worked,now I have to get Beauty's attention,I said to my self.

"Hy Bruno".

The ladies chorused,I played along.

I got one twerking for me and the other two caressing my body.

I looked towards Beauty,all thses while,my eyes were on her,but she wasn't even bothered just like before.

I got two more girls,still filling my stomach with hot drinks.

"Looks like the birthday boy is having it lit!".

The dj announced.

Everyone cheered surprisly because I've never done that before

All I wanted was the attention of the woman I love but she isn't giving me any, instead she kept rocking the guy and it was so uncomfortable that I had to do something.

I shoved the girl twerking for me aside,then I got to the two, pulled Beauty into my arms then I

pushed Lucas so hard that he fell on the floor like a mighty log.

The music went off and people started mumbling,Any who might have a clue of what happened chuckled.

"Bruno!!_

Beauty snapped shocked like everyone else.

"Dude come on ,it was just a dance"Lucas said,dusting his body.

"Sorry about that"I mumbled at him.

"Bruno that was ..."

I grabbed on her tiny waist, lifted and carried her away going towards my room.

I heard my sister trying to calm everyone, especially Lucas.

As soon I got to the room,I dropped Bea on the bed and locked the door.

"Why will you do that,it's just for fun,I can't believe you're that childish".

She pouted with arched brows.

"Well I don't like such fun,you should be having fun with me...not him.. because you are mine remember"

She was speechless looking at me in a way like she was disgusted by childish behaviour.

"You are really something else!,but you are having fun with those butty ladies"

"What butty ladies?"I asked ,trying to hide that fact that I am happy ,she actually noticed that,also she sounded jealous because of them.

"Nevermind"she sneered.

"Am sorry about that,I was just trying to get your attention,i don't care about any of those girls at all"I apologized.

She suddenly went cold.

"You really do love...me that much?"

She asked, undressing,I swallowed nervously and pretended not to love what am seeing,it was hard not to glance though.

She stripped completely and oh my gosh,she was looking like an art,her body's insanely gorgeous and sexy ,I felt my self harden.

"Well you know i do and I won't ever stop loving you".

She walked towards me,and strokes my chest,she got nearer , purposely letting her perky nipple touch my skin.

I tried to hold myself and let her make the first move,she kissed me, excitedly I grabbed her backside with intense but gentlyand kissed her passionately ,she was so light on my body,her legs locked on my waist like a child.

We both fall on the bed ,she went for my belts and I...kept kissing her lips down to her boobs ,she pulled out from my pants and started sucking

I closed my eyes and I can't explain what happened but I was picturing her face, then her chubby look was all I got in my head,I tried hard to picture her this moment but it kept happening.

She stopped and pulled me down, climbing on me this time,I suddenly felt less excited about this .

"So show me,how do you miss me".

She whispered to my ears and licked my ear down my throat in a sensual way.

Her nipple piercing against my hard chest,she kissed me again ,I tried to return same energy but realized suddenly that I've lost all interest,I don't know why,but it wasn't same crazy feeling,I felt like ,I was forcing myself,I can't do this to her,she will feel offended, rejecting a woman's sexual advance can kill her emotions.

I forced a smile and kissed her passionately.

She started riding on me,she moaned softly and I was losing my mind,not because of the ectasy of the movement of myself in her but ...

"Bea..emm,I...I ... ,Bea".

She stopped skipping,her sweaty body made her more sexy ,she was gasping breathlessly, she looked at me a bit confused.

"What's the problem Bruno?"she asked.

"I'm sorry....can we stop?'

"What are you saying"she chuckled.

"I'm serious Bea, sorry ,I don't feel anything"I mumbled avoiding her eye contact.

She was shocked for a minute then she smiled sadly and climbed down from the bed, without saying a word ,she put on her undies.

"Beauty.....

"Don't call my name!!seems like you are all for my body afterall,you like them chubby huh?,and I thought you loved me then for real ,that you are different from the others I never knew the difference was they love skinny ,you love chubby".

She sobbed loudly.

"No.. please that's not true baby,you are really hot, sexy beautiful like always and I swear I have never stop loving you baby but no matter how much I tried to express those feelings, something is just not right"I said absently.

"What are you saying,if you don't feel any love for me anymore,why don't you say so or maybe do it for pleasure than killing my urges anad leaving me unsatisfied"she snapped angrily.

"I'm sorry,maybe we can try again,I know for sure that I love you...

What could be wrong.

She turned her back at me and started crying,I wanted to console her ,I felt really bad that I hurt her this, stupid!,I shouldn't have said it to her,I should have pretended and go on with it anyway.

"Maybe I shouldn't have come here in the first place".

Hearing her say that broke my heart,i knelt down

"Beauty please,let's go another round, maybe I will be comfortable and we can get crazy so crazy and dirty ,you know how we do it"I was trying to make her feel better.

"You don't get it ,it's useless,I am not supposed to be with you and please don't come looking for me".

She picked her purse and left.

I chased after her in my boxers not minding the visitors.

We got to the gate ,she was fast enough to get a cab,and I still don't know her address.

This time around ,I will never forgive myself for this.

**BEAUTY SHELL'S POV**

I was cleaning off my make up when Jessi opened my door violently.

My room was messed up,I had a tantrum moment in here,I guess I was full of hate for myself, realizing I actually wanted Bruno to be mine after all.

"Can't you knock twinkle star!"I snapped angrily at Jessi.

"Enough with the name ,how could you get naughty with your sister's man!!"she snapped back.

"Bruno is Beauty's man,he belongs to her ,that is going to hurt your sister,if she get to know about this"she yelled.

I rolled my eyes in frustration,trying to focus on my mirror reflection,while cleaning up the remaining makeup.

"My sister moved on years ago,am only helping him to do same,no feelings attached"I said and put my hair up into a pony.

I thrashed the stained make-up remover wipes and left the bathroom.

"You may be identical to Bea but believe me you are completely different,you're crazy!!,you try playing Bruno after what he's been through,what do you mean no feelings attached!!"she yelled out again.

"He is cute okay am cute,we make out,sadly the boy got my sister into his head that even an exact version of her can't excite him,he stopped me,and treat me like I was not sexy or ....

I tried not to cry

"You are really crazy like I thought,come-on Shell ait it,you messed up,you are full of shit".

Jessi said.

She was getting on my nerves but I knew I was wrong ,and I am only pretending not to care.

I smiled and dried my eyes.

"Am just sad ,he loved her that much yet we blindly advised Beauty to let go of him and move on, we judged him because of his delivish father who almost killed her with sex plus her sucide attempt ,I don't know how but I want them back together,he is the best man for my sister"

I said,Jessi was relieved to hear that.

"Well ,i'm on it already, getting them together,first you have to let him know who you really are"

Jessi said,she walked up to me and stared directly into my eyes after she had said that.

"It's not that easy,but I will try".

"Now that's my Shell ,am your twinkle star from now on".

She hugged me.

"What a crazy girl"I laughed out.

Jessi smiled back and helped me clean up my room.

Just then my phone ranged it was Bruno.

I ignored .

"What am I supposed to say to him"I whispered to Jessi like he was there presently.

"Just answer and hear him out first"

Jessi suggested.

I took a deep breath and answered the next call .

"Hello"

"Hy Bea, emmm can I see you tonight please don't say no"

"Elites hotel,be there"I replied.

"Thanks"he said slowly and have hunged up.

I sighed nervously,hot air exhaled from my nostrils.

"I guess this is it".

**BRUNO'S POV**

I arrived at the place she asked me to,it was a simple restaurant,nervously with fingers crossed I waited for her.

My heart was pounding,coupled with my absentmindness.

"Here is your drink sir".

At first I was startled,I looked up at the waiter and forced a smile.

"Thanks"I said to the waiter,who bowed and went his way , clinking my fingers on the table impatiently,I checked my wrist watch,then I took sip from my glass.

An hour later

I was about losing my patience,I had dailed her number severally without connecting with her,I was hopeless,all I wanted was to make things right again,I brought out the ring box and smiled at then,then I saw her walked in ,I quickly hid it away inside my pocket.

Her presence had that attraction that turn heads,I smiled broadly and relieved she came.

I stood up and pulled the chair for her.

"Thanks"

She mumbled and sat down,I went back to my seat.

"You look beautiful,as always,then and now"I said softly,I hope she could feel how sorry I am about yesterday.

She smiled back at me,it made me feel at ease than before.

"I will take a pineapple juice".

She told the waiter

I don't want to waste anymore time,I had to say something before finally giving her the ring back

I went on my knees.

"I love Beauty,I do ,that's one thing I am sure of,that's one thing I can never deny,my feelings for you,and...I am truly sorry for yesterday,I was a jerk and I treated you badly,I was unappreciative..

"Bruno..

She wanted to interrupt but I don't want to give in to her.

I proceeded and went on my knees and brought out the ring.

"This belong to you Bea, please accept me again I promise,I wouldn't mess up this time...

"Oh please,put the ring back Bruno"

"Beauty if it about yesterday...

"Just put it away Bruno, you will create a scene"

She said little embarrassed looking around nervously.

"Please Beauty, don't do this do this.."

"Listen to me first Bruno please"

My heart was heavy,I felt so sick I think I would black out any moment,I feared this rejection,not after everything,we've been through for us Beauty please, don't do this.

I knelt there hopelessly ,confused on what next,after few mins.

I shamefully stood up and sat downas she instructed.

I couldn't even look up to her face,I was trying to control my emotions.

"Don't you love me anymore Beauty,I deserve this treatment for last night but please...

my heart was aching badly.

"Bruno please listen..

I continued ignoring her,I don't want to hear it what will ever make her say no to me.

"Your behavior towards me has not been fair,I got hurt too Bea,I was attacked by my father,I almost died,I also felt like taking my own life sometime because of our seperation...

she interrupted again

"I am not Bea!!,i'm not your Beauty!!"

She snapped back with wet eyes

"What do you mean ,beauty ,you are beauty, you...

I was thinking she was sad about yesterday,and maybe think I love her old self better but I was wrong.

She proved me wrong.

"I am so sorry Bruno, that's the true story"

She concluded.

I was shocked to the extent that I forgot how to breathe.

"Please forgive me Bruno,I was just trying to make you feel better,and help you move on,...i thought,but.."

I Chuckled loudly ,with tears flooding my face,I don't even care about the words that she was saying.

"Beauty is aware of this switch?"I asked hopefully and looked at her with my wet eyes.

She nodded slowly.

I was the stupid one afterall,Beauty,she moved on and forgot about me,she doesn't care about who I am presently dating.

"So you are not Beauty but who".

"I am Shell,her twin"she replied.

I chuckled sadly with tears rolling down my face ,I brushed the off roughly.

I stood up without uttering a single word.

"Bruno.. please wait..

Her pleas and Calls ,i left the place,I can live without you Beauty ,I can do it".

That was the word that I kept saying in my mind like a crazy fellow.

**BEAUTY SHELL'S POV**

I cried silently after he left,then I had to tell Bea about this.

I called Bea and told her everything right at the spot,I was scared Bruno might do something crazy to himself.

"He really loves you Beauty,I could tell how heartbreaking he was after getting to know the truth about us"I sobbed.

"Do you think he now hates me?"

She asked in-between sobs

I couldn't give an answer to that,no answer is enough.

"Maybe it's for the better though,not all love stories end happily"she said bravely.

I am sure she was only playing brave.

"Beauty don't say that...he might hurt himself, okay just call him ,at least talk to him please"

I pleaded to her

She hunged up.
