“Fuck,” he swore.

Everything happened so fast. First, I was falling, and then I wasn’t anymore.

But as soon as I had straightened myself, I heard a splash of water and a spring of curses coming from Roman .

Quickly turning around, I faced the stream, only to let out a booming laugh when I saw him.

He was sprawled in the water, completely wet, his face a mask of astonishment.

I quickly lost my smile when I saw his face turn expressionless.

Standing frozen in my spot, I bit on my lips nervously, scared that he was going to be angry.

There was only silence for a few moments.

But then a sudden laugh startled me, and I jumped slightly.

I stared at Roman , shocked. He was laughing. Roman Petrov was laughing unless he was laughing sarcastically.

I had never seen or heard him laugh before.

He was always a preoccupied man, his face composed and hard.

Occasionally, he would have a full smile on his face but never a laugh if taking a picture for a magazine or something political.

Such a joy

    AnaI lie in bed as I watch Roman and me making love on one of the screens i think I've been desensitized. I could watch it all day. In fact I have been doing just that. We are making slow gentle love. He is on his widespread knees, one forearm is holding his bodyweight off me and the other hand is on my behind as he holds me how his body wants me.God I miss him, I miss his scent, his touch, his love for me. I can’t live like this, not without him. It's like I'm starved of food. I’m suffocating even though I have air because the air that I’m breathing is polluted with evil been around such people.Help me. Somebody, please help me. On the other screen I see Roman walk into our bedroom and I grab the remote and point it to the television. I smile a sad smile sets up on my face as I watch him. He lies down on the bed and starts scrolling through his phone. He smiles softly when he gets to an image. I can’t see the image but I know it’s of me. He has been reading my diaries

    COURTHOUSE “Only from meetings and business activities and the first time my son meet them at a club in Miami,” he replies as his eyes flick nervously to Roman. “What did he tell you?” “he told me that Ana said he was playing her and that he drove her crazy. She never knew where she stood with him.” “When Ana started seeing or dating Mr Petrov did she change at all?” the prosecutor asks. “Yes.” “How did she change Mr. Rice?” “She was crying all the time, nervous, unsettled and a bit jittery,” Senator Rice replies. “Did this bother you and your Son as people who knew her from a young age?” the prosecutor asks. “Yes.” “How long did this go on for?” He hesitates as his eyes flick to California. “For a few months, during which time he married her.” The prosecutor frowns. “So he began to brainwash her in effect to marry her, Right” “Yes I believe so.” “Then what happened?” the prosecutor asks. “Um, nobody around our circle came for the wedding. It was a closed affair
