Not only did I have a hangover to deal with, but Gee came to see me. She spent the day with me and I spent the day in bed. We watched movies and snacked all day, after I explained to her that I'm not pregnant. I thought about asking Callum what he wanted me to tell her, but I didn't bother. I told her we made a mistake and had unprotected sex. The thought of her knowing my fiancé hates me makes me feel shame, so I couldn't tell her the truth. Not only that, but she then assumed the reason I got my own room inside the house is due to that. We are abstaining until marriage. Little does she know.

Gee is nothing like Callum and I find it hard to believe they're related. Gee is fun, happy, and kind. She's only a few years older than Callum. I got a rundown of their family as well. Her mother, Callum's Grandmother, had her when she was in her mid-fifties, then Gee's dad died a few years later. Her and Callum grew up close like brother and sister. Not until Callum turned twenty did he start taking more after his father. Stringent, distant, cold, and they stopped being close. She assures me Callum's father was a lovable man, but when it came time to explain Qara, she couldn't really get into it. The details were too sketchy. There was no definitive answer about where the woman came from. The strangest part was there was no definitive answer what happened to Callum's mother either. She died, but the how or why wasn't there. Stress, I was told, but how does a person die from stress? Although, I could see myself keeling over if I actually had to deal with Callum for years. And if Callum is like his father, it's almost understandable.

Gee has picked up on the strange relationship between me and Callum, but I tell her she's wrong. I've convinced her we argue too much and that's why we're distant. I'm not allowed to tell anyone the truth and those that do know the truth about why we're together, don't want to hear the hardships of it. My sister would kill him. My mother would die of a heart attack. And Lol would continue to pity me.

When the house starts to fill with Callum's family, Gee begs me to get dressed and meet everyone. Of course I do, but even I recognize the oddity that it's not my fiancé introducing me to his family. I meet Gee's mother first and the women are two of a kind. It's refreshing to know not everyone in his family is an arrogant narcissist. She was married into the family; I can only imagine what Gee's father was like.

"Have you seen Callum yet?" Gee asks her mother while we go hunting for her cousin.

"No. Lol mentioned he's not here."

My ears perk up. He's not here. He didn't tell me he was leaving. Convenient. Maybe he's gone into hiding and won't show up for the wedding.
