She felt a lot of different emotions, mostly anger was the main one. She bawled her hands into fists when she recalled Hayden's rejection and what had transpired that fateful day.
She was filled with rage but yet felt saddened by the bitter truth that Hayden was in love with his late wife.
A woman who looked exactly like Elizabeth but yet ended up being her long lost twin sister.
Her mother had been keeping such a big secret from her for so many years and now her sister was gone. And she never got to know her well or form a sisterly bond for years; she has always been lonely and wanted a sibling.

She didn't know that the operation had damaged her mother's womb and she lost the chance to be ever a mother again.
Now all the years were wasted alone.
She clung to her jacket and held it tightly as she shivered from the cold weather.
She ended up coming to the park in order to clear her thoughts.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhiFcQtObu1
Elizabeth sat down on the park bench with tears streaming down her cheeks. Silent sobs escaped her lips someone hands her a handkerchief she angrily tossed it away without looking at the person.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZLAkONIbu7
"Lizzy..." A voice whispers behind her. And when she turned she was stunned to see Hayden standing in front of her.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwgAQOuBGnq
Did he come to humiliate her even more?
No she couldn't handle his cruel rejection again besides he had kicked her out of his life.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsdDpRk5TTA
She didn't mean anything to him.

FLASHBACK
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡstp9RfvC2w
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWTWSgcDDhL
Ever since I caught Elizabeth snooping in my house I kicked her out.
I couldn't bear another loss again.
I cleaned the broken photo frame glasses but my thoughts always went back to Elizabeth.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhghVS616Bx
The most haunting moment in my entire life was the look she gave me when I told her to get out of the house.
She was simply devastated.
I hated seeing her like that but yet my mind didn't want me to admit what I truly felt inside for her.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4oQAiVROR5
My heart knew the answer.
But I always asked myself one question.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTnJ1PqklRB
Was attracted to Elizabeth because she looked like Azalea?
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEMoJy8k2RE
Or I was attracted to her for who she was?
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCgdx6Cn99k
It always brought me back to the first day I saw checking me out on the window.
She might not know it but I saw her that day and the day I bumped into her.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe4wjaf9th3
How she made me feel. I was speechless around her but I always tried to show my cool and annoy her.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡclt0kYtaFn
She's like a firecracker.
She's ready to explode anytime.
And I believe we met for a reason and I mean why this town of all places?
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd7r9GBrJiy
It wasn't just a coincidence I don't believe that.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXybCb4IV9r
I remember the way her hand felt in mine when I asked to dance with me. How her lips felt damn good on mine.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJ9wCL23d1
I can't describe that feeling in words.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRXDZYJga95
Or the time I rescued her from those monsters who almost rapped her. How I carried her lifeless cold body in my arms.
Gosh that day I thought I had lost her forever and that would have been all my fault because I stupidly conspired against her with Crystal.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxyAfPSEOz2
I still regret that day and the decision I made.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDNaglzUtZk
Elizabeth is very dear to my heart. I know every little detail about her.
Her smile always hits me in the knees and makes me weak.
It took three weeks for me to realize that I loved Elizabeth genuinely and I needed to win her back. Mom was right it was time to put the past behind me and focus on the people in front of me.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwg4D4izmdF
If Sage was here she would have rubbed it in myself.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhguH4k9Ynr
When I went to her room she wasn't around. I had used the window to let myself in. To clear my negative thoughts I decided to take a walk and that's when I saw her.
She was sitting on the bench in the park.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRK3YeXraaz
This was my chance to finally talk to her and not chicken out just because of my inner demons that tormented me.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRQtweJQIAv
I began walking towards her.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡawyPZPzAq9
"Lizzy..." Hayden whispers.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH3nfyWtydQ
Elizabeth glared at him and got up to leave and walked past him.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUxv5F5rbCT
"Hey wait!" He yelled while following her. He grabbed her wrist and stopped her.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqcqLYHYZNp
"Please look at me..." He pleaded.
Elizabeth looked at him with a puzzled look.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuloRwGQfnD
And Hayden continued talking.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNJ5BktV9GW
"I know you're hurting believe me so am I I'm so sorry-"
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡohhMH98BJC
Elizabeth frowned.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡffQo6WvbNy
"Last time I checked you didn't want to see my face so what changed?" She demanded angrily.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyaoInB9uRm
Hayden sighs deeply and shakes his head.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWF7dVU6nax
"It's complicated but listen to me..." He pleaded once more. She walks away from him and wipes her tears with the back of her hand.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlYLz9hLCNA
Hayden follows her and stops her yet again.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3cZD3cvOv5
"Yes you were right I'm a coward" he admits bodly.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfVxrg45fGr
Elizabeth crosses her arms over her chest cocking a questioning eyebrow at him.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡra5ixsxBGq
Hayden smiled and took her by surprise and pulled her into his arms. She began struggling in his arms.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Y0NrkrOXt
"Stop it! Lizzy yells angrily. He silences her by placing his lips on hers and she struggles to push him away.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuStAFpH4xy
Azalea's eyes faded when she saw Hayden with another woman in his arms something inside her shattered even if she wasn't supposed to feel anything for him.
She turned her heel and left somehow it hurt seeing him with someone else she was confused.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzLA5nObw2o
Hayden had betrayed her so quickly without glancing back it's only been four years and she is surprised that he has moved on so fast.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkeaPedRyEI
Hayden pulls back regaining his breath and he releases Elizabeth. She stared at him and blushed.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZEtOU6bEiJ
"So you're gonna start ignoring me?" She asked in a whisper.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRQlbhB9XLs
He shook his head negatively.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM1iFVsuSgy
"I won't ever ignore you Elizabeth" he mutters sternly.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2L8XY6aTcD
"Pinky promise right?" She pressed innocently and Hayden chuckled lightly.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtc9rEAzjxD
"Yes I promise come on let's go."
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4PaLqf6AEh
And they held hands. Elizabeth blushes.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF5u3KmndGt
"So are we a couple now?" She asked shyly and Hayden nodes in response making Elizabeth giggle.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjmRefhM7Xx
"What changed your mind?" I thought you were still in love with my sister."
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx5FYm4lKUI
He sighs quitely.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrbvqmq8mjN
" It's hard Elizabeth because your sister Azalea meant everything to me but fate separated us and fate brought you to me.
When I met you for the first time I developed feelings for you. Even though I didn't want to admit my true feelings I knew the answer and I realized that I love you Lizzy."
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW7bhaAq3e1
Elizabeth wiped her tears away.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQaK49lFrXg
" I feel the same way I just don't want to take Azalea's place in your life and heart. I just want a normal relationship and be happy with my boyfriend nothing more. I just want to see where this relationship will take both of us Hayden. I don't want to pressure you into anything."
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNnAdebQX7t
He nodded quietly.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVdIDIn9BJV
" What about Dylan?" Hayden asked curiously. Elizabeth burst out laughing.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrDAWKcnqzx
"Oh you're afraid of him?" She demands and Hayden shakes his head negatively.
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY23M2X7xQb
" No of course not he might be tough and look scary but I am not scared of him plus I have super strength I can easily take him down."
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBCf73LdQsB
Lizzh giggles and drags him away while rolling her eyes.
