Today started just like any other, me and dad both up at the crack of dawn. Me shuffling through the kitchen to prepare breakfast before our busy day at work. Every morning starts the same him sitting at the table with the paper and a cup of coffee reading the weekly comics. Me doing the house chores, cooking and cleaning. It's been our routine since my mom passed three years ago, and something I've come to treasure. My father isn't a very verbal man but the time spent with him is most precious to me. Today was an important day he has a meeting with our bank to see if he can refinance his business loan.

Sitting on my bed I let my tears flow without making a sound. I'm to be married today to a man I've never met and know nothing about. My heart beats rapidly against my chest as I try to calm down. I shuffle through my jewelry drawer and find my Mom's pendant I hadn't thought much about ever wearing it but I at least thought that when I did, I would be marrying the man of my dreams. “Definitely not a stranger”, there's a knock at my door and my face twist in confusion dad never knocks he does the one two three walk in and that's always been ok with me. Walking to the door I pull it open and there stands a man with a big bag and some boxes. Standing there shell shocked a little I forget my manners. “ Mame these are for you these are the things my boss wished for me to bring over for this evening's ceremony. He places the bags and boxes on the bed and exits the room again, turning to face me. “Looking at his watch, then back to me, you have an hr to get ready. We have an hr drive ahead

Walking inside my home I call out to my father and listen for his voice, but it never comes I look inside his room and I see that his suitcases are no longer there. It looks as though he left in a rush. I sit at the table and write him a letter explaining everything to him and to let him know I will write and stop by often seeing as I'm not as close as I previously was so I thought I should explain. After I read it and checked it over I placed it on the countertop to ensure he sees it when he returns. Heading to my room I grab the small bag I packed earlier and my mom's knitting needles. As I walk to the door the silence breaks through and one single tear falls, “I guess I'm all cried out” having to accept what is happening for the better. Knowing dad wouldn't just forget about me I open the door and Gideon reaches for my suitcase. It's ok I try and speak but he stops me mid-sentence. Mrs.Rose this is my job please allow me to do it, with that I release the bag to him and he holds out

I slept the entire day away and most of the evening, when I awoke my eyes were swollen and puffy. My first night in a new house and my first night away from my father dread fills me as I swing my legs off the bed slide from the bed to the floor still in my naked state and then scurry to the bathroom. " I must have messed up pretty bad, he went from declaring his love to giving me the cold shoulder within minutes". Maybe I should be happy, but why is my heart in pain? Maybe he expected me to have a little bit of experience but I've always believed honesty is the best policy. Standing and looking at myself in the mirror, I cringe as I hear soft moans coming from the other side of the wall. Hearing her get louder and louder. "Oh oh De'Shawn yes right there, she repeats it like a mantra and my heart sinks to the pit of my stomach. How could he? Why would he? What did I do? This man is evil and deceitful, but I have no right to object. I take my rejected heart and slide into the whirlpool

He watches me like a hawk as I take my seat on the bench at the bottom of the bed, looking at me with his eyes set in a glare. "That was quite brave, even for you Rose, I don't have to explain anything to you but for the sake of me being misunderstood, I will. "Sir, you don't have to explain I try and cut in, but I'm cut off before I can finish. Enough his voice bounces off the wall and halts me all at once and I'm stunned into quietness turned on by his assertiveness and that confuses me. My heart begins to beat faster, I can feel the vibrations all over my body. "Rose.....he shouts and my mouth refuses to form any words Rose" he calls again and my mind is clouded and confused. After a good couple of minutes of him trying to grab my attention, he walks over to me and kneels beside me. In a very different voice he whispers, Rose, I'm sorry I didn't mean to scare you, peering into my eyes I can see he didn't mean it but I also see something else. If I'm not mistaken it looks like pain,
