You and Me by Belle Deks (good book club books .TXT) 📕

ava tapped her watch and groned inwardly. george was late again. he was supposed to pick her up for lunch with eva, her twin since he had taken her car.
'everything okay?'tyra asked turning o look at her.
'oh nothing, why do you ask?'
she couldn't have everyone knowing about her problems with George.they had been married for 1.5 years and it had been one problem after the other.they had all warned her aganst him.
'you seem a bit flustered, are you okay?' this time Chester asked.he was fond of irritating her ever since she refused his overtures.
'i'm okay!' Ava slammed the files she had been holding against the desk.
'maybe something to do with George?'he continued, a glint in his eye.
'just drop it already' Jessica shot back at him.
Ava gave her a weak grateful smile.Jessica was the person she prefered most in this office she always had a kind word to say and never teased her about George. had it not been for Ava's anti social tendencies, they might even be freinds.
unable to wait for much longer, she stood up.
fine

, she thought

I'll walk

, the Verde isn't that far from here

.
'hey where are you going?' Tyra asked shooting her one of her intimidating glares. had it not been that Ava was used to them she might have felt threatened.
'i'm leaving' she retorted back looking straight into Tya's big brown eyes'i stayed later yesterday remember?'
'right'

15 minutes later, Ava was panting down the street, her legs screaming in pain. if only George would keep his word for once,the selfish bastard

.an unfamiliar car pulled up next to her. Her sister's face peered out.
'Eva!' she gasped then thought to herself she bought herself another car

'do you like it? i just bought it two days ago! its such a babe innit?' everything was a babe to Eva.
'it's nice'
'oh common don't be such a killjoy, it's fabulous'
'i just think that you have enough cars already'
her sister's smile faltered then regained full force.
' hey, relax; i don't have that many! thay did this documentary on this guy with thousands of cars, i'm not like that, come on in. i knew Gorge wouldn't come so i was coming anyway'
She slid in and sank int the posh leather seats.
'don't start on him and it's George not Gorge'
she smiled her dazzling smile that had got her a lot of money.
'i know dawling and i'm not starting on him. i'm sure he's helped up somewhere, maybe he's in an interview with a record dealer! maybe he's going to produce another hit song!'
even as she said it they both knew it was a blatant lie. after the first and only song George produced which had been a big hit,he had run dry or so it seemed. he spent all the money he got on gambling and now relied on Ava. he was probably gambling somewhere with Ava's hard-earned money.
Eva was the rich, Fame magazines 'Most Wanted Supermodel' , Top magazine's 'Hottest woman of the decade' and so many more title's while Ava was the poor one scrambling for cash. when their parents died, Ava had gone on with school and got a degree in journalism while Eva had got signed into a modelling agency. she became more and more famous and her face appeared on bill boards arond the city,then the country and soon Eva had become a house hold name. her slim body and long legs were coveted by many. her hair was long and dark and her eyes shone like diamonds. she had endless energy.
she always tried to get her sister into modelling but ,afterall they had similar but not identical bodies.she always tried to offer Ava money but Ava never took it because of her pride.
Ava glanced at her sister for the first time and gasped.
'eva what are you wearing?!'she was dressed in flimsy lingeriethat hardly covered anything.
'relax don't get us killed, i just had a photoshoot and met this guy Rabillu, he was so sweet and is an aspiring designer. He told me to wear his line, you know make him famous'
'that doesn't mean you should go arond dressed in a lingerie.
'its a dress'
'no its not we're not going anywhere with you dressed like that'
'i guess i know what you mean.i look a bit promiscuous but its just for a few days'
' days!what hhas gotten over you?have you forgotten all the values you were brought up with?
'it's just a dress! fine i'll go home and change it. are you happy?'
Eva was so easily manipulated that it hurt Ava. many times Eva had been hurt and always came to her sister for comfort. Eva couldn't stand when her sister was mad at her.
'look i'm sorry but i just don't think you should go around town dressed like a slut'
Eva flinched.' we shouldn't argue , lets just go over to my place and have lunch. i'll call the chef , he isn't expecting us'.


after lunch both sister's sat down on Eva's white plush sofas.
'so what have you beenbeen up to?'
'i'm going to Xor tommorrow. be back on saturday'
'Nice' Ava replied
'hey! i just got the best idea' Eva suddenly sprang up from her seat' You should totally come along with me'
'what?'
'yeah you sholud. you deserve a break'
'you know i have to workif i don't work i don't get paid'
'i would give you some money' she offered gingerly expecting what came next.
'no! plus, what would i do about George?'
'You can't give this up for Gorge, come on'
it might be fun

Ava mused and who knows, some time apart might help our

relationship

'fine'
'yay!! you're the bestest' she enfolded her in a hug full of Gucci by Gucci.

'relax, i waited for you and you didn'tt come what was i supposed to do? cancel the meeting?'
Ava was tired of the constant arguments between them.
'you're asking me what you were supposed to do'
he sauntered towards her,a menacing look on his face
'George, you're drunk don't do anything you'll regret' she slowly backed away from him
'oh don't worry about that'he said with a sardonic smile'i won't do anyhting i'll regret'
then he lifted her and threw her across the room.' there you go wifey'

Eva sank deep into her sit and relaxed. this was her perfect friday evening -sitting by the poolside and enjoying the amazing view. her house was gorgeous everyone said it-everyone except Ava that is.Ava always complained that Eva and was unreasonable in her spending and to materiaalistic.the huge mansion Eva bought three years ago went into the category of unneccesary thrite things in Ava's book.
Justin was out of town if not he would have been here with her enjoying the cool breeze.Justin was Eva's secret boyfreind. no one knew the truth about them,and they liked to keep it that way. it would be damaging to her reputation to let people know she was having an affair with her married 'bodyguard'and Ava's reaction would be disastrous,not to talk about what Mark's pregnant wife would do.
