LOGINThere's nothing more shattering than hearing that you're signed off as a collateral to marry in order to clear off your uncle's stupid debts. "So this is it" I pull the hoodie over my head and grab my duffel bag that is already stuffed with all my important stuff that I need for survival. Carefully I jump down my window into the bushes below skillfully. I've done this a lot of times that I've mastered the art of jumping down my window. Today is different though, I'm not coming back here, never! I cannot accept marrying some rich ass junkie. I dust the leaves off my clothe and with feathery steps, I make out of the driveway. A bright headlight of a car points at me making me freeze in my tracks, another car stops and the door of the car opens. There's always only one option, Run!
View MoreASHLEYI drop the paint brush and look at my work, critically, through the painter's eye of course. I smile inwardly at another master piece created by me, this one is more special than the other paintings that I've birthed, yes I like to call my paintings my babies. I look around the room smiling in satisfaction, Nathan would be so surprised to see that I've turned the room into an exhibition room, it's already three weeks since he travelled and honestly, I've been enjoying this free time alone, just thinking of my life and trying to make worthwhile decisions especially as I'm about to start college. Although some days I just wanted to talk to him desperately, I missed him and his bossy cold tone. As much as the alone time did some good to me, sometimes I just felt extremely lonely, even though Kate was here on some days.I'm also happy that I was able to buy all my paint tools with the money Nathan gave me. This particular drawing reminds me of how I felt when I kissed Nathan for
NATHAN"I'm going for a conference at Australia, I'll spend most of the summer there" I say and Ashley sighs and drops her fork down.I couldn't help but just watch her on my bed when I came back, she looked so harmless, like her sharp mouth can't literally wound a soul. I understand the reason for her being like that, she's had a pretty rough childhood and she grew up in a violent home. For these 9 months that we'll be married, I hope I can make it the best time for her, I'll treat her like a younger sister. I agree that I needed company and it took Ashley coming around for me to realize that I've been pretty stuck up and emotionless to even care about myself, talk less of others. She opens her mouth to say something but she decides against it. "I'll drop some money with you as your allowance, Roy, my driver will take you anywhere you want to go, keep me informed on your whereabouts, I have so much on my plate to worry about you getting kidnapped. Roy is capable of protecting you a

I drag my clumsy body from my room to get a cup of coffee from the kitchen. I dreamt about my mom last night, but this time she was the one walking me down the aisle to marry Nathan. I understand it's because I got married yesterday and my mind is still pondering over it. I miss my mom, a lot, I miss my dad too, even though I didn't spend enough time with him. My dad was murdered when I was 6, he really loved my mom, a lot, and I hope I can have that kind of relationship with someone, something genuine, something selfless.It's quite early and I'm already dressed up, ready to apply to work at a cafe, it's my only option right now and I can't jinx that. I'm feeling a bit tired, I didn't get enough sleep last night, I hope I don't sleep off at the cafe.Nathan is sitting on the chair in the kitchen and he's doing something on his laptop. I pour in the coffee from the percolator into a cup. "Good morning Nathan" I gulp down the coffee and pour myself another cup. "Where are you going t
The graduation ceremony is over and they're bodies everywhere, everyone is trying to take pictures. I already took dozens of those with Kate and the others before Kate took off somewhere. Mr Kriss agreed to let me come for my graduation, of course he had his driver drop me off and wait for me. "As
ASHLEYThe kind of temporary relief that swept through me when Mr. kriss told me that wasn't his wife was just so much that it radiated on my face. So here am I standing with my supposed husband on Mr. kriss' driveway. He crosses his legs and leans back on his car. He looks amused and I feel like
NATHANMy uncle's call sounded so urgent. He made it clear that he wanted me to be at his place yesterday as he needed to discuss something important but I was too tired to go to his place. I need a long nap, lately I've been too drowned in work to even think about my mental health.I walk into my
I'm taken to the car and shoved into the back seat. What a way to have his wife treated! Goosebumps appear on my skin at the thought of being married to an oldie.One of the men enters the car and sits beside me. A sound clicks signalling that the doors have been locked I lean on the window as the
