The next day I went to go to the markets with Armand. Of course I didn't want to because he is nothing to me and if I had the chance would slap him across the face but I managed to hide it.
"How kind of you!"
I say referring to the money he gave to the poor lady
"I was trying to impress you..." he says smiling
Why? If I weren't here he wouldn't have gave the poor lady money? Selfish, that's what he is.
"If you truly want to impress me... invite me over for dinner tonight." I follow the plan as always
He turns to me and stares at me.
"At 7:00..." he says as I nodd
I look around and see a man hiding behind a wooden caravan. I gasp recognising the man... James!
"Pardon?" Armand asks me
I look around pretending nothing happened and approached a hat.
"This hat! It's breath taking!" I say
"Shall I... purchase it for you?" Armand asks
"On second thought, who needs another hat?" I say
"Hmm." He hums slightly
I look around again getting him distracted so I cam confront James.
"What i need is... a pipe!" I say
"A pipe?" He seems confused
"Sí, like my father used to smoke! I hope I do not repulse you with my un-lady-like habit." I say again
"Oh no, it truly fascinates me!" He says
Yeah he's lying. I giggle softly.
"Wait here will you?" He says
"Sí..."
As soon as he turns away I walk to the caravan James was hiding behind.
"What are you doing here?"
"I must speak to you about yesterday!" He says
"I forgive you now go!" Tears already form in my eyes
He shakes his head and looks at Armand walking back from the pipe Sellers.
"After ten years...of marriage you cannot hide the truth from me." He says
A tear threatens to fall as I try everything I can to stop it from falling.
"You know what I am saying, Elena..."
I try to maintain character and follow the plan. If I do not... James together with my brother is gone.
"We were never ment to be together..." I say as my voice shakes
He shakes his head.
"You do not love him..."
He pulls me into a hug as I silently cry into his chest. Why couldn't they get someone else! He lets me go and walks away. As I hear Armand approach I wipe away my tears and turn to Armand behind me.
"Oh! Gracias!" I say pretending I'm fine
I just want to run to James but if I do he would be dead! Why!
