I woke up with a bright light of sunshine kissing my skin. I covered my face using my hands then slowly opened my eyes. I can feel its heavy weight. It was swollen so badly. I pushed my comforter lower using my feet then pulled myself upward.
I leaned my back on the headboard,
I pulled Celestine's hand on my wrist then tiptoed on Marcus' stand. I sheepishly smiled at him, wrapping my arms on his hand."Marcus, we can handle ourselves. Celestine is right, it's better that someone will stay here in case something wrong happens. Oh, I mean, I'm not wish
I tried to open my mouth but no words came out. There's a lump in my throat, preventing me from saying something. I couldn't believe that he could come up with that kind of idea.He held my hands, pressing it lightly. "Amber," he shook his head. "No, Aly. We promised each other to marry when we hit the legal age. We promised that we won't love anyone else other than you and me."I rolled my eyes. "Whatever you say. We promised, really? That's why you searched for another woman?" I asked in sarcasm.He creases his forehead. "Other woman? I don't have any woman other than you."I crossed my arms over my chest. Lair. "The one you told me when we were stuck in the room. The reason for that stud." He chuckled when I pointed to his shining stud.He catched my hand in the air then planted a kiss on my knuckles. "Don't hate me. It was you," he
Blake is the kind of man who really doesn't give up on things easily. He was willing to waste time, energy, effort and tear just to get what he wants. But… This time, I am certain that he would fail."Aly, please… You are my life. I can't live without you." I can now feel his cold shaking hands while holding my hand so tight.I gasp before turning back on him. "Blake…" He looked at me totally crestfallen."Please…" He begged.I inhaled heavily then kneeled on his front to meet his eye level. He was completely shattered just like I do. I smiled bitterly while wiping his tears away. "This is for the both of us. Please, let me go," I asked him for the nth time but still, he shook his head."If you won't let me go, I will totally hate you. You will never see me again, Blake. I will forget you just like how I forg
My knees drop on the cold tiled floor, feeling so weak. Why do they have to create a story and sue him for a thing that he never did? He didn't kidnap me because I accompanied him willingly! And he didn't rape me because I initiated it!If ever they will file a case, Blake would surely be sent into jail. Something happened between us when we got drunk but it was not a rape. They could make a test and would confirm that I was devirginized. That would be harder and painful on my part."D-Dad… M-Mom… Y-you're so u-unfair," I stuttered between my cry.Mom attended me on the ground, wiping my tears out."I did my best to make you proud of me! I did everything for you. Suffered for long years! I don't deserve this," I chide.Mom held my arms, supporting me to stand up. "Darling, you deserve to be in good hands and that would be in Isaac's companion
Maybe I was so tired from releasing so much energy on crying today to the point of making my entire system feeling so weak and heavy. If Celestine didn't wake me up, surely I was still lying in bed.I scrunch my body, staring at the knee-length sleeveless floral dress on my bed. It was stunning with its pink big flowers and black stems which fits the dominant colour of the dress which is white.If Blake was the one who would see and wait for me downstairs, maybe I was dressed up very early. I heaved a sigh then shook my head to get him off to my mind. I must not think of him from now on.Forced by the mind, I grabbed the dress and went to my walk-in closet to change my clothes. I smiled when I saw how it suits me. Imagine, a beautifully made dress worn by a damsel in distress. Lovely– and note the sarcasm.I turned around, witnessing how fascinating it is,
Since they agreed on my point, the engagement party would be at the end of the month. I tried to change the Grandes good impression of me but the more I talk, the more they appreciate me. I thought it was rude for them to interrupt and join a private conversation, surprisingly, it amused them more and more. Shame on my part."You impressed me so much, Amber. Your Parents are right, you're a good daughter and a perfect lady as well," Mrs. Grade commented, which Mr. Grande agreed with. I made an imaginary facepalm and a tweak on my hair. What am I doing in my life?!"I appreciate your compliment Mr. And Mrs. Grande but I am not a perfect person. No one is," I replied in my most respectful tone. I don't want to sound rude either way. But if the arrival of my words for them is rude, then that'd be fine for me.Besides, I can stand by my words. No one is living perfectly in this world. Everyone
Pause. Rewind. Play. Pause. Preview. Play.I heard it right. Yes, I do. He just confessed to me. My man's best friend admitted his feelings in front of me, seriously."Y-you had a c-crush on m-me, s-seriously?" I stuttered.He fixed and sat himself upright, meeting my gaze. I felt the heat of my body raised to my head making my cheek turn red. I know I look stupid here now. I am confused about him."Who would've not? A gorgeous president of the campus who would put her life in danger just to contribute something. Setting aside her fears just to aid someone asking help from above," he chortled. I shot him sharp stares and a hiss.I sat properly then crossed my arms over my chest, still giving him sharp stares. "Damn you! I hate you for reminding me that!" He chuckled at my expense. I rolled my eyes at him. Boys naturally love teasing and
Hesitant, Thunder nodded at me. I inhaled heavily as I made my steps near the gate. My heart was pounding so fast giving me shivers all over my body. My knees were trembling in fear of what might happen and my hands were as cold as ice. I tried to search for a word to say on him. I constructed some sentences in my mind but I can't choose the proper words to utter."Miss Amber, someone is disturbing here looking for you," One of our security informed."We'll handle this. Don't inform anybody from inside about this, okay? I don't want to bother them," I replied and he nodded.I shook my hand, trying to relax my nerves and senses. As soon as we stepped our foot out, my eyes welcomed Blake who was pinned by Four security guards, preventing him from staying near the house. My chest was squeezed so hard witnessing him like this."Sir, Ferrers have visitors. You can go
