{Inside the Elevator}
My broken phone buzzed. Unknown number. I stared at it, pulse thundering in my ears. Then, I answered:
"Lin speaking."
A pause. Then, a familiar voice, smug and deliberate.
"How was your birthday gift,My dear Husband?"
My breath caught up. It's him. My Fiance.Cheng.
"You sold my company."
Cheng,his Fiance replied,
Yes my hubby, did you liked my gift?
Hahahahaha hahahaha,oh my gosh, I m dying to see your reaction right now!
I standed in the elevator, the cool metal walls pressing in around me as Cheng's laughter echoed through the phone. My chest tightened, every nerve ending screaming with disbelief and rage. The city lights blurred through my tears as I gripped the phone so hard my fingers ached.
"What the fu** is wrong with you?!"
My voice cracked, but I didn't care. The betrayal stings like a thousand cuts, each word Cheng spoke another blow to my already shattered heart.
"It's unbelievable..."
I whispered, more to myself than to him. The elevator dings, the doors sliding open to reveal the sprawling lobby of my building. People rushed past, oblivious to me crumbling inside.
Cheng replied,
"Or you believe that your stupid little brother did this? "
Hahahahaha
"What did you do to my brother?!" If you touch him, I swear to god! I will cut off your hands!!"
My head was muffled, only my mouth speaking impulsively.
"I know,I know, Hahahaha, I just fooled him,Lol"
Beep...
He mocked me and hunged up the call. I walked towards my car, of course changing my destination from my silly little brother to my fiance.
