She is all over me(Will you be my bride?)

Lee Ngoh sneezed a few times, much to his dismay as he wanted to remain quiet. He couldn't help it. The mansion was dusty with cobwebs and rats, running at corners, creating shadows. The large hall had furniture covered in large pieces of white cloth, a few leftover portraits hangs crookedly on the edge of falling. His heart skips a beat to see his own reflection in a broken mirror. He looked-torn. Lee Ngoh reached the base of the winding stairs that lead to the first floor. His heart beats furiously when he sees a glimpse of weak light. He sees hope and Claire. He sees his sister. He feels simply cold.

At the top, the light comes from a small room whose door is solid oak wood. Lee Ngoh stops right in front of the door, hearing voices.

' How can you do this to him? He trusted you so much! He has always wanted to get married, have kids, you know, the normal thing. This is truly wrong. Please, just let me go. '

' I can't let you go. Not until...' It became a whisper.

Lee Ngoh couldn't make out the voices. He didn't know who was Claire, who was his sister. He squinted his eyes and saw a woman in a wedding gown tied up on a rocking chair. He couldn't make out the face in the dark. He knew it had to be Claire. She was kidnapped in her wedding gown. He barged in.

What he saw sent his nerves tingling as confusion engulfed the rest of his soul. Tied on the rocking chair was his sister. His sister in a pink wedding gown, not white like the one Claire wore. 'It's a good thing we have someone related to participate in our wedding Honey.' Lee Ngoh's blood curdled to recognize the voice of his bride, now high-pitched. He turned to see Claire in a blood stained wedding gown. 'Oh, don't worry about me getting this gown bloodied. It was your sister's job, she put up quite a fight. All the scratching and biting like a feline. Sexy.' Claire laughed mockingly.

Lee Ngoh's head swirled with more confusion.' I don't understand. We could have a grand wedding in the church today. Why do you want to have our wedding in a lonely dirty place like this?' Lee Ngoh glared at Wei Seen accusingly before looking at Claire in a soft baby look. 'I understand everything now. Wei Seen kidnapped you and brought you here so she could stop the wedding. Wei Seen wore a bridesmaid's gown so she could trick you. Somehow you fought back and tied her up instead. I'm so glad you are safe Claire.' Lee Ngoh moved to embrace Claire but was rudely pushed back by her.

' You don't understand anything!' Claire screamed. ' Sad to say, but I never loved you Lee Ngoh. This wedding is between me and Wei Seen, you're the guest. I went out with you just for your money! Haven't you heard about my previous failed relationships? They didn't fail Lee Ngoh, they just died. And I killed them. Do you think I would actually fall for you? Look into the mirror!' Claire stopped to catch her breath. ' But, I realised after all that, I finally found true love. In your sister. I have never felt like this for anyone. I love her, and we are getting married tonight. Bless us Lee Ngoh! ' She smiled, showing pearl white teeth.

Lee Ngoh felt sick. A strong emotion exploded inside him-a mixture of agony and anger , pulsing through his veins. Then, all spirit left his body, he felt afraid. 'You like my sister? You are a woman Claire!'
