They say the truth shall set you free_ but what if you choose to be a prisoner to set the one you Love free.? "...Cadeau, Akarui is the reason you didn't get married to Lijie!....." she shouted. "What did you say..?" Cadeau sniffled quietly, tears threatening to spill from her eyes.-Cadeau woke up to the sound of wrenching knuckles dabbling gently on her bedroom door. She turned sideways pretending she heard nothing. But as the knock persisted, she slowly opened her eyes and shouted, "come in."She waited till she heard the footsteps approaching, and then she turned on her left averting her gaze upwards and said.  "Good morning Remy,?" and closed her eyes back to sleep.The woman did not respond, instead she reached forward and pulled the covers off Cadeau's body."it's already nine in the morning Cadeau. wake up and go to bath. Besides, Fleur is waiting for you downstairs to have breakfast,""Nooo

When Cadeau received the message from Akarui she was already at the mall shopping with Fleur and Natasha, though she was disappointed by Lijie's late coming she couldn't help panic if he was gonna make it on time to the venue to see if everything was according to what they wanted.She picked a dress but then again left it, she looked at where Fleur and Natasha had been standing a moment ago and  figured they where in the fitting room, she unlocked her phone and typed a message to say she had gone to the jewellery section, "we'll find you there," Tasha replied, she walked there and started looking for a pair of earrings or necklace she could pair with the evening dress she chose to wear for the appreciation party  the night after the wedding. She was looking at the necklaces, bracelets, bangles, rings, anklets and all other accessories displayed but still didn't like any, she moved closer to the necklaces looking gracefully one by one, everything  

"He has gone? How rude." Natasha protested after he disappeared, "he didn't even greet me or anyone else, you were busy talking like me and Akarui don't exist. He didn't even greet his mother-in-law over there,"pearls of laughter escaped Cadeau's mouth and she looked at Akarui, "she doesn't know everything is invisible to Lijie when he's talking to me.." she clasped her chest; "poor thing- Lijie only sees me, the rest are shadows," "what? you mean am a shad.. ? Cadeau come back here!" she spran after her, "wait till I catch you..."suddenly before Cadeau could dodge Tasha for the third time_ she slipped on the glass pearls, sending her body to the ground^ "Cadeau!!" Tasha's leg muscles instantly tightened with adrenaline as everyone's eyes turned, It was dead silent for seconds.. But luckily Akarui caught her before she could kiss the floor...Mrs Wan was the first one to come back to her senses as the shock of what almos

 -  -  -  -In the wash of the new light, Rani's face was all over the kitchen. She had prepared enough for this day to handle the heat of a family lunch party for her daughter. Everything was set, she took the bright coloured bowls and set them in fridge next to each other. She finished and handed the huge covered thick peached icing decorated cake to Remice to put in the other fridge and told her to follow behind as she took the small heart shaped one to Cadeau's room Instead. She first piped and slid the door open, "good morning, heard my two princesses are sleeping in this room" she walked across and centered the tray on Cadeau's bedside table next to her study lamp at the moment Remice opened the windows to the outside, allowing the cool fresh morning breeze hit the tiles. "mom please it's too early" Fleur mumbled nudging under the covers followed by Cadeau who said nothing.."look at them Remy?" she turned "they loo

They were all silent no one dared to breath as she slowly sunk to the ground and fell at Lijie's feet to hug he's knees. "For all the times you said I love you Lijie, or I love you too, please am begging you to not go. stay with me one more night- just one more and I'll remind you am the same woman you fell in love with, but right now don't abandon me. for the sake of our childhood memories Lijie," she probbed her chin between he's legs and gasped the more. "you're all I have Lijie, am not Cadeau without you.." Her face slank in pale as if pulled by strings. "Lijie you're the only one who makes my world beautiful, without you am just an old pair of shoes," Cadeau's lips trembled with suppressed hiccups. "remember you said your love will always find and gravitate me back to you, so why do you want to go? why leave me now.?" Her sadness grew more with he's silence.
