A Moment in Destiny

Liam was waiting outside alone. He received a call from Darcy who he tried best to avoid meeting for years. Although not expecting her to call him today, Liam answered it, “Darcy, speaking please.”

“Liam, you would not like to see me in the last six years. When do you plan to see me?” Darcy asked.

“Darcy, I’d love to see you.”

“What do you think about our relationship? I have allowed you to be single for five years. When will you marry me?”

“Darcy…” Liam was embarrassed to talk about it. Six years ago, he got drunk one night and slept with Darcy; to be accurate, he did sleep with a woman, then found Darcy lying beside him as well as some red spots on bed when he woke up.

He hated to think about what happened at that night or met Darcy in the past six years.

Liam did not believe he had made love with such an icy beauty as Darcy. He wished he lost all the memory about that night because it really bothered him much. Darcy said he could have five years for free and then he had to marry her. But Liam did not expect her to talk about it today.

Darcy said, “Please arrange me to see your parents! We need a talk about our wedding.”

“Darcy, we need to think twice.”

Darcy almost screamed, “You don’t want to marry me?”

“Yes…”

Darcy hung off the call, “Ok, see you.”

Liam was shocked; he would get married soon. It was terrible!

Just the moment, he got another call. It was from Sarah. Liam felt relaxed and answered, “Hello, Sarah?”

Sarah said, “Congrats, Liam. Darcy said you will get married. You must be excited.”

“Sarah, no, I don’t…” Liam tried to explain, but finally he did not think it proper to talk more with her. Sarah was only his younger sister instead of his wife.

“Anyway, I’m glad to hear the good news.” Sarah said easily. Liam started to feel unsure about what would happen.

When William came out of Lara’s condo, Liam seemed to go blank in mind with his phone in hand. William asked with a frown, “What happened?”

Liam was back to the earth and shook his head. He looked at his phone to see Sarah’s call finish. Darcy called Sarah before him! Bitch, she had never got along well with Sarah. He stopped thinking and asked William, “Did Lara tell you the truth?”

William showed him the USB, “She will stay here. I got the news to be released tomorrow.”

“So easy?” Liam could not believe it was incredibly easy to William and asked, “Did you call someone to be here?”
