“Carrie” I whispered into the dark as I felt myself being lifted. It was like I didn’t have control of my body, just floating, warm hands roaming my body. I tried to take back control of my body, but it was like something was weighing me down, pressing down to my chest as I spiraled into the darkness again.
When I came to again, I was slightly better than before. I could see a face standing over me. when I opened my eyes, I saw it was Car, my assistant from work. What was he doing here? I tried to call him, but I couldn’t, I still felt numb all over.
Did father send him over here to finally end my life? I doubted that. Cassie’s birthday was a few days away and the media was going to be present. He needed me there with Daisy clinging to my arm, like the perfect couple we were not.

Don is the enemy. Don is the enemy. I chanted in my head as conflicted thoughts plagued my head. Spending time with him and Jenny yesterday made me see him in a new light. And then he had been calling my name over and over again in his sleep. Was he dreaming of me? I shook my head. What was I even thinking, it wasn’t possible. But then the way he had held my hand and entwined my fingers with his. I remembered the way it made me feel. Loved, safe, and warmth. It awoke something in me that I didn’t even know existed. My hand flew to my chest, it was really fast. What was this thing that I was beginning to feel for Don? It couldn’t be just worry. I went over the events of yesterday in my head but most of them didn’t even make sense to me. especially when he had been
Unbinding Love Carrie
I was living a nightmare. No matter how much I protested Drew insisted I go with his wife for her birthday spree. It was beginning to feel like he had brought me out of the office for this very purpose. It actually made sense. As our lunch came to an end, dread filled my heart. How was I going to survive being alone with Cassie the entire day? I shouldn’t have come in at work today, I should have called in sick. I followed them quietly out of the restaurant like I was going to be sacrificed instead of shopping. Cassie kissed Drew squarely on the lips not minding the people watching outside the restaurant before making way to her own car. I opened the car door for her, before entering through the other door. I sat so close to the window so I wouldn’t be close to her in the small space. I didn’t know th

Cassie called the office the next morning asking for me. I was wearing one of the white shirts she had gotten me and a crisp black pant. Charles had been startled when I got home the previous day sporting new hairstyle and clothes. I would never forget his reaction in a hurry. He was drinking juice straight from the container and the moment he laid his eyes on me, the contents of his mouth came flying out, luckily it was not in my direction. And then he had screamed my name. I laughed a little remembering it now. He had given me dinner when I was done telling my story, but he complimented my new look anyway. I left out the part where Cassie had kissed my cheek, I didn’t know what to make out of that yet. I was currently in the car with Cassie and Daisy. Here is how it happened. She called Drew a

Dumbfounded. That’s what I was as we stared at each other. This was spiraling out of control and into a messy situation. “You’re a kind woman” I answered Her lips turned down at the sides “You know what I mean and don’t call me a woman, it makes me sound old. I’m just 22” she said “23 by the weekend” I reminded her “Let’s not look forward to that” she sneered “I don’t even know why they have to throw a big party, I just want to sleep in and cry over my lost youth” I was tempted to roll my eyes, she was one to talk about lost youth. I had lost my entire life, but nobody saw me whining about it. “You never answered my question you know. Do you like Daisy?&rd
Unbinding Love Carrie
I played over the events of yesterday all over in my mind. Charles had not believed everything that I told him, especially Cassie’s advancements but I hadn’t either. I had stayed up all night playing out different scenarios of what was actually going on between Cassie and Drew. She had mentioned him loving someone else, who could it possibly be? My head was aching from all the questions that I had, I needed all the answers to them soon enough. With the help of Charles we had stayed up all night compiling all the information that I’d gotten from the files into proof that the Meyer and Zaverelli family were dealing in illegal drugs and arms. The plan was to upload it during Cassie’s birthday party. Charles would tip off the police and let them in in disguise. My fingers were crossed that it would

I was mad. That was the truth. Despite knowing it in my heart that my assistant was indeed a female, there was this small doubt that I could be wrong. No, I had felt it. The rapid beating of her heart, the way her body had responded to me, like it was meant for me. I could still feel her hot breath on my chest and how my body had reacted to her. It was the same way that I reacted to Carrie and that irked me. it reminded of all the feelings that I had for Carrie, if not stronger. Even now, the blood was still rushing to my pants so for that sake alone, Car had to be female. If there was any chance that I was wrong, it was going to be painfully awkward. It was possible she was planted here by my father to spy on me, but why not get an actual man? That was the problem, the moment I thought I found the answer I was met wit
Unbinding Love Carrie
Rain. It spattered on my window, making a disturbing sound but it was a gentle reminder for what today was. I could already feel the dread forming in the pit of my stomach. I wanted to snuggled deeper into my duvet, but I had to get up for work. My consolation was that it’ll be weekend soon and I can have a moment to recollect myself. Just like every other birthday since meeting Charles, I swung my legs over the bed and stood, wearing only sport shorts and a singlet. I walked to the bathroom, not giving myself even a moment to think. When I stripped my clothes I stood in front of the mirror and just stared, my icy fingers tracing my neck. This was the day it all happened. Sometimes I would wonder who it was that saved me, I owed them big time. Other times I would hate them for savi
Unbinding Love Don
It was her. The girl I’d dreamt about every single day of my miserable life was Car. Car was Carrie. My hands tightened on the steering wheel as my mind raced. I was happy because she was still alive, breathing and not dead. But I wanted to know, why she was disguised and working in the very company of those that tried to kill her. That only meant that she had an agenda. What hurt me the most was, while I was having nightmares about her and feeling guilty, she was right there under my nose and I couldn’t even recognize her. When I woke up that morning, I had a feeling something was bound to happen, I had thought of all the possible scenarios, but nothing had prepared me for this. The plan had been to head over to the cemetery with Car because for some reason it had felt like she should be there with me. But when
