This day has finally arrived. My wedding drama day with Kane! I can't describe how I feel right now, a mixture of nervousness and sadness. I felt sorry for my mother especially for lying to her about our marriage. My mom thought I fell in love at first sight after meeting Kane at the cafe, but she was wrong. I haven't loved Kane at all. Even my heart doesn't beat loudly when I'm near Kane. This marriage happened because of an agreement between the two of us. I helped Kane cure his strange phobia, then in exchange he helped me to make my mother happy. Actually last night I was thinking maybe I'll be able to love Kane someday and vice versa. Kane will love me too then things will get easier.
So this morning I don't want to burden my mind with strange things that are not necessarily going to happen. I eliminated all the bad thoughts that had crossed my head and then I just focused on my beautiful wedding dress. Finally I will be wearing a wedding dress by a famous desig

STRANGER IN MY BED EIGHT
After a chaotic and harrowing blessing ceremony at the most historic church in Paris, we ended up in a limousine in a thick silence. The wind from the air conditioner was blowing very loudly between us who hadn't said anything since leaving the Notre-Dame Cathedral. Kane sat beside me nervously, his hands actively moving to scratch his itchy skin. But if the itching goes away for a moment, he'll put his hands on his lap and just sit still like a statue next to me. There is a ring on his finger. I then glanced at mine, it looked just as beautiful as his. But I'm still upset about what happened today. The expensive dress I was wearing had turned into a worthless pile of cloth in an instant. The soft satin was torn on all sides, especially at the tail of the dress which hung down at my feet because that was where the most of the trampled on. "You don't want to say something? Apologize to me maybe," I huffed. "Why am I apologizing to you? Not my fault." He still

I smiled, waiting for him to actually enter the house and his huge body disappeared behind the white double doors. After that silence completely surrounded me. The limousine and driver had left. Probably headed for the garage behind this house because I saw the car go by the side road towards the back. My eyes wandered through every corner of the building in this house, then my eyes stopped right at my feet, on my dress. It had been torn apart and looked terrible. Some parts of my dress are dirty with dust. I then lifted the torn hem of my dress. Sad to see how it looks bad. So there's no reason to keep the dress anymore. With my two strong hands I tugged at the hem of my dangling dress. The sound of torn cloth began to enliven the silence around me. It took five tugs until the torn tail of the dress slipped completely off my dress. Now I have a simpler dress. A knee-length dress with crystal stones on the chest and embroidered ornaments on the sleeves. Good! I can explore t

I've done walking around and meeting the people who live in this house. I don't think I have a problem with them. Everything was fine, and they accepted me like a family instead of seeing me as the young lady of the house. It's something I haven't had before. I mean I have a mother, but it feels incomplete because I don't have siblings or uncles or aunts. Just me and my mom. We complement each other of course and we love each other. But here there are more than two people. There is Mr. Robert the gardener, then there is Maxel the driver. Then Julia, Margareth, Joyce and Erika, they are amazing women. What Julia said was true, Joyce and Erika would get along with me and it proved to be true. We instantly hit it off like old friends as we chatted in the kitchen even though it was our first time meeting. Joyce is a cute girl with curly brown hair from Itterswiller. She has been a servant since graduating from high school. She said she decided to work here because she wa

How long have I been sleeping? Seems like a very long time. The room is getting very dark now and very cold because I haven't closed the curtains. The winter wind was blowing hard which made me wake up from the cold. I've been sleeping since six o'clock in the evening from exhaustion and boredom. There was nothing I could do after I finished dinner with my mother-in-law at five o'clock. It was indeed a very early dinner because tonight my mother-in-law has an event to attend at her friend's house. When my mother-in-law came home and got out of the limousine that picked her up, and walked into the house, I was terrified to meet my mother-in-law in the living room. He just got home around one o'clock in the afternoon. When I heard the sound of the car engine roaring in the front yard, I couldn't stop praying because I was too afraid of my mother-in-law's reaction when she saw me. I thought my mother-in-law must be very ashamed and angry about what I had done at church.
STRANGER IN MY BED TWELVE
It's been twenty-four hours since Kane made his confession in front of me. The man looked frantic as he explained everything. He was really frustrated to make me buy his words. But I'm not an easy woman to convince after what he did to me. How dare he deceive me about his strange disorder. I knew he was just lying to me and wanted to test me. Kane doesn't really get itching when it comes to women he thinks are beautiful. He turned out to be just an excuse to cover up something else. His past.Fuck that guy. I've been silent on him since yesterday. We have spent twenty-four hours more silent than talking. Maybe the number of words I put out for him could be counted on my fingers right now. We were only talking when Kane's mother gave us a honeymoon ticket to Switzerland. And after that we didn't say anything until this morning we had breakfast on the roof of one of the best hotels in Bern.“My mother called this morning asking how our trip in Switzerland was. She

"Hi mom, I'm fine here." I was just getting out of the bathroom when mom called. I've seen it three times and this is the fourth time mom has called me tonight. But I really don't know if my cell phone has been ringing since earlier because I was busy enjoying soaking in the hot water with the liquid soap that smells of spring flowers which is very fragrant. I bought it at one of the souvenir shops I found in Old Town. And now I feel satisfied because the floral fragrance is so soothing and very comfortable on my skin. "I had just finished showering. This day is very exhausting. We were walking around Old Town when it was snowing hard.” I lay on the bed with a bathrobe wrapped around me and a towel over my head to dry my wet hair while listening to my mother talk about things. “Looks like you enjoyed your time with Kane well. The cold air there will add to the romantic atmosphere between you. Are you two lying on the bed to warm each other up?”

Knock knock I knocked on Kane's door slowly. While waiting for the man to open the door, I began to look myself up and down. Hopefully he doesn't feel allergic if he sees me wearing tacky clothes like this. An ankle-length skirt, an oversized and tacky pink shirt, thick glasses, fake moles, and hair tied in two. Great! My appearance is absolutely disgusting. I really wonder to myself why I prepared this outfit before flying to Switzerland. But all because of Kane. The man repeatedly told me to look tacky in front of him. So I suddenly had this outfit ready in my suitcase, even though when I put all this outfit in my suitcase, I was determined not to wear it. But it's become somewhat useful now. For a mission. Kane really took too long to open the door. I knocked on his door again with a louder bang, then waited nervously. If the guy I'm going to meet is a normal guy, then he'll definitely feel nauseous when he sees me dressed like this. But since the man I'm going to

Two hours later I was still in Kane's room. Sitting quietly on the white sofa in the corner of Kane's room, I was busy observing Kane's peacefully sleeping face. That guy was really weird. He could be calmer and cuter when he was asleep like that. Two hours ago he was still pissing me off with his whining and noisy babbling. Like a baby with a fever and fussy, he kept complaining about his itchy nose, his eyes starting to get watery, and his body getting so cold even though I had the heater on max mode that I was sweating. But now look at that noisy man, he has turned very calm after taking the cold medicine I gave him and is fast asleep like a baby wrapped in a blanket. I walked slowly to his bed, trying to make as little noise as possible in his very quiet room so I wouldn't disturb his deep sleep. He was so handsome when he was sleeping, no doubt about it. My body bent over him, observing the movement of his caught breath and then placed my palm on his forehead to take hi
