Seventeen: Worried.
"Oh." Lauretta walked to me, holding a cup of popcorn, crunching on it roughly. When it came to eating, she was such a mess in that.
"Yep, babe." I added a little amount of powder to my face. Ponytail was my favorite hairstyle, so I already packed my hair in it. Blending the lips gloss I added to my lips, I turned to her.
"So… when will you be back?" She gave me a questioning look.
"Donno." I shrugged, then returned to staring at myself through the huge glass mirror in my closet. "Probably when my mom releases me. You know she gets so excited when she sees me. I don't even think she'll allow me to return today"
"Wow. Sweet momma." She chuckled.
For a moment, I kept staring at myself through the mirror. Since the day Sebastian had embarrassed me at that mall, I'd become quite cautious of the way I dressed. Normally, I used to dress for about ten minu

Staring at the beautiful dishes mom served on the dining table in front of me, my eyes grew wide, my mouth literally watering. I didn't even know when I dropped my elbow on the table, cupped my chin in my palm, a sigh leaving my lips. Mom was indeed the best person in my world. Not just for her food, but for everything. "Oh, mom," I spoke in a low tone, not even knowing how to state my appreciation. I couldn't take my eyes off the super-enticing dishes. The aroma alone could block my breath. On the left side of the small table, there was a bowl of baked bison meatball, together with brisket burnt ends and corn dogs. Some reindeer sausages stood by the right side, just close to a little amount of lobster Mac and cheese. Mom appreciated local American foods, so I expected this. "More coming," she announced. Turning to the direction of her voice, I gaped. She was holding a bowl of pizza soup. And walking to me, she grinned from ear to ear. "Mom!" I whined. "Do you wanna kill me with f

At this moment, I couldn't cry any longer. My tears were also shocked that they trembled to escape my eyes. I still couldn't understand what was going on. It felt so weird and stupid."What is going on here?" A weird sensation played around my head as I asked her that. Even though she heard me, she continued to look away. Was I supposed to be violent now?"Lauretta!" I yelled at the top of my voice, which kind of made her flinch. "I'm speaking to you!" I jerked her arm, pulled her towards me. "What is going on here? What is happening? Huh?!"She swallowed, shook, her eyes glinting so much fear. "I… can explain this. Do— don't do anything to me. I can explain.""Explain what?" My body lost control of its movement. It felt like I was going to fall, anytime soon."I can explain this," she repeated.Staring into her trembling eyes,

I leaned my back on the door, still sitting on the floor. My knees were tugged to my chest, my elbow wrapped around it. Although it was almost eight in the morning, I was still in my track, not ready to move until Sebastian and I conversed. This morning, I was going to get all I needed. Every one of them. I wouldn't care if he was a controlling husband. All I knew was that I needed an explanation from him, and I was going to get it at any cost. About thirty minutes ago, he had stood up from the bed, and went to the bathroom. Even though he knew I was sitting here, helpless, he ignored my presence, and only walked into the bathroom as if I was some kind of ant who had no emotions. What if an ant had emotions too?My eyes tingled, and my head cried. I hadn't slept last night. All I had done was to stare at the floor, remember everything everyone had told me, and be regretful. This was a really hard game. Soon, a door sounded. Raising my neck to stare at it, I saw Sebastian. He walke

Dreaded and vexatious, I kept looking at him. Also, he did the same. Our eyes were glued to each other like bread and peanut butter. He was angry, but all he did was to stupidly keep staring.Uninformed, he grabbed my arm with an ardent force, pulling me towards him."How dare you?!" He choked out.As if I was ready to hear him speak, I yelled back, "Shut up! Shut your fucking damn mouth!"Like I hadn't yelled before, this one literally made me so weak. My body shook as if my bone had broken. Just as fast I blurted that out, my heart beated at the same rate."How dare you hit me?" His teeth clenched, the thrust of his anger causing him to pant so terribly. "My parents haven't dared to do so. No one, absolutely no one, has dared to do so. Who gave you the courage to hit me? Tell me!" His body swatted as he yelled.I snorted. "You are terrible

The expression I could read from his face was shock. It felt as if he didn't expect me to ever state that. And the thing was, did it mean he didn't want to get divorced to me? Or did it mean he was excited?What do you want, dude?Confused, I kept staring at him. Our eyes were locked on each other, none of us seeming to want to avert just yet. Soon, he took a step closer, and closer, and closer. His mouth and eyes were still widely open. And before I could say anything, he held my arm, pulled me to him, locking my small body into his chest. I gaped, blinking like a robot, stiffened in my posture. His hands slowly move to my back, then to my hair. "Adrienne," he called breathlessly, a bit of excitement in his voice. That was it. He was happy. "Thanks you so much." As he spoke, he laughed curtly as well. "Thanks. I'm so glad. Thanks for finally saying this. At least, I won't have to think of what to tell my mom."I knitted my eyebrows, confused. "Mom?" I enquired. He pulled away, but
Dominant Husband: Her worth Twenty three: Fate
Sitting in the small balcony of my room, I watched as the sun set in the azure sky of the evening. It was about six already, and I was well prepared for my journey to Florida. After a long thought on how to start a new life, Florida was my final decision on where to go. I just needed to leave this place. It only brought back bad memories.Seven years ago, I had sat in this same balcony, on this same old chair. Vividly, I could remember that Sebastian had been my seatmate in our chemistry practical class. We had worked together for two hours, and that had been more like a year to me. When I had gotten home that day, I couldn't stop telling Lauretta about his looks, and how he made my heart skip beats. If I had known they would be the ones to make my life miserable, I wouldn't have loved them so much.I felt something wet on my cheek, and noticing it was a crazy tear, I grunted a little. I had already promised myself that I wouldn'

The beam of the sun sent a knock on my head, slowly jerking me from my sleep world. Tired, I threw a pillow over my head, grunting under it. I still had to sleep so badly. This should be about five in the morning, so how the heck was the sun up now?"Mommy," I mumbled, half asleep, squeezing my face, grunting further."Yo baby!" A voice cried. I could hear the person, but the sound was faint. "You don't wanna miss your first day, do you?"I hissed, pressed the pillow against my left ear, digging more into the bed. "Go 'way. I need some rest.""Fine!" The person snarled. "Rest all you want, ok? But ensure to remember I tried waking you up. If you blame me later, I'm gonna smash your boobs."Wait, what did she mean? What was I to remember? Was there some kind of—"Oh my gosh!" I flung the pillow from my head, sat up quickly, blinking like a confused

Sebastian________Going through the files my personal assistant had dropped on my table, I frowned at myself, grunting at every minute. Today was one of the most terrible days of my entire life. Since the company I had wanted to work with had sent me a crazy email, I hadn't been fine."Sup?" My best friend, Ethan, jerked into my office, smiling widely like he just won a contest.Turning back to the file, I hissed. How could he be smiling while I was being frustrated?"Nothing's up. I'm only being so frustrated right now. Life's getting too stressful for me," I declared.He chuckled, sat on the seat on the other side of my well furnished wide table, then drummed his fingers on the table to obviously catch my attention."What?" I turned to him with lowered eyebrows, flustered at nothing specific.He sig
