The Secrets Hidden In The Scars: Chapter 6

Hey, everybody! Hope you're all having a nice day. I've just updated my book "The Secrets Hidden In The Scars" with Chapter 6. Again, I don't know what to say about this chapter and will just leave this post here.

Anyway, I would be madly happy if you liked this book, added it to your library and told me what you think of the storyline and the characters' actions. I hope you would't lose your interest for my book and would read it until the very end. My English is not perfect, but I'm doing my best to make my texts more or less readable. Play the song One Direction — Spaces (again, yeah), lyrics of which were originally used for the chapter name and go to read it.

And here's a little snippet (chapters are separated in a few parts; so, this piece is going to be in the part that will be automatically published tomorrow):

“Listen, Natalia, I know it's not my business…” Raquelle starts carefully. “But I would like to know what’s happening between you and Edward.”

“Erm…” Natalia stutters, sharply moving her eyes to Raquelle and trying to show a surprise so hard. “What would you like to know? And… What does Edward have to do with it?”

“Terrence and I saw that Edward and you got nervous after seeing each other. You definitely felt a mutual disgust.”

“Gosh, Raquelle, why do you think so?” Natalia asks amazingly, feeling her breath getting much heavier because of the excitement. “Why do you think Edward and I have some problems?”

“Natalia, honey, I understand it’s probably hard for you to talk about it. But the dinner, to which we invited you and Edward, proved that there were problems in your couple. You were too distant and cold. No hugs, no kisses, no talks with each other.

“It seemed to you, sweetie…” Natalia pronounces in a little shaking voice. “Edward and I were hugging and talking.”

“Yeah, but you were doing that without pleasure. Like under torture or a pistol. I clearly saw Edward settled fear inside you. You were kinda afraid to say or do something wrong. You always looked at him like you were waiting for his approval.”

“Gosh, friend, it’s nonsense!” Natalia smiles falsely, touching her mouth and nose and not noticing all the movements of her hands get sharp, and her skin gets white. “Why did you think I was afraid of Edward and looking for his approval?”

“Because it’s the truth. Natalia, Terrence, and I aren’t as stupid as you think. And the case is not about it. You and Edward are lying so openly that any stupid person would see you have some problems. Who are you trying to make sure that everything is fine about you?”

“We aren’t trying to make anyone sure everything is fine about us,” Natalia jabs quickly. “Because everything is wonderful.”

“Stop, friend, I’m begging you. Your face clearly lets me know all your words are a lie. Moreover, you’ve never been able to lie. You’re a terrible liar.”

“I don’t lie. Lying is very bad.”

“But you’re lying. I mean, Edward and you are lying. But I don’t understand, why? What kind of goal do you have? What did my fiancé’s brother do to you to make you shake and look as white as snow?”

“He did nothing, Raquelle. You thought it up.” Natalia smiles falsely again, shaking her legs nervously. “Everything is wonderful about us. I love Edward very much and am glad I’m dating him, and he adores me and doesn’t stop making me happy.”

“Don’t make me a fool, Natalia. You can lie to anyone, even though nobody’s gonna believe you. But I know you too well and won’t believe any word of you. I do know Edward and you have problems and hide them. If everything was fine, I’d see it in your eyes. But now I see you’re scared, upset, and tense.”

Have a good day!

Love, Estrella Rose.
