Running into the room I locked the door before throwing myself on the bed. "Open the door! Alyssa, I promise it isn't what it looks like!" Andrew knocked on the door but all he got was silence from my side. I couldn't bring myself to answer him. I could have believed that he might be saying the truth but the hickey and those pictures had made me not only angry but broken too. I was hurt deeply and I needed some time alone. I had believed my husband more than anyone and it sometimes surprised me too as to how I could rely on someone this much. I trusted and believed him. But I needed time, for my mind to stop thinking negatively and for my heart to accept that he was speaking the truth. I hated to say it out loud but my mind was saying to believe some stranger rather than my spouse. Which I did for a second, but I knew the picture could be a lie, or what the male was saying could be a lie because the mark on his neck could not appear from anywhere. It

It was awkward, yeah, hella embarrassing, and so I kept asking my husband to keep me down. "Come on, I'm going with you now. Just keep me down." I whined trying to break free from his grip. "But you weren't listening before, and so I will take you like this to my car." He said while slapping one of my buttocks. Shocked I jumped up a little, while the male smirked. "Hey! Why would you do that?" I pouted like a child as we entered the elevator. It was giant, a maximum of 20 people could fit in here and to think only Andrew used it just made me wonder why only him? Oh! yeah, he was boss. "There are so many people down in the cafeteria of our company, some will be working too. It would be so awkward to take me like this, just keep me down." I moved up and down trying to get out of this position. Even when the male tried to stop me I wouldn't listen to him until he clutched my butts. "Don't move this much, babe." His voice w

The male stared at me and then at the bed where an arm coated with blood was laying. The letter in my hand was motionless just like me, people might have mistaken me as a statue if it wasn't for the blinking of my eyes, proof of me being real and alive. "What is all this?" He questioned while checking me up and down to make sure if I was okay. "Uh....I-I don't know." I forced the words out that were stuck inside. I was afraid and because of a good reason, that was Andrew and his anger. He was already so done with his brother and now knowing that behind all this was Adrian too I could imagine what he would do.  Especially the words that were written on the paper might make him beat the other guy. Not wanting my husband to fight with that cheap guy I tried to hide the letter in my hand. But, it was very late for that. "Show me that, Alyssa." He was angry, I could tell just by how deep his voice was and the tip of his ears that were becoming

People always say love is a beautiful thing that everyone experiences once in a lifetime. But what if someone hasn't? Or for them, love is the horrible thing that ever occurred to them. Many people don't even believe in love because sometimes it costs a lot. It's not just about being attracted to someone or being caring and sweet with him or her. It's about being vulnerable, keeping your heart out knowing very well that it can break. Love isn't some game that everyone can play, because many lose in this beautiful yet terrifying game. It's a horrible thing for some of us because people risk many things for it. I have seen people being blind in love and things that were right in front of them couldn't be seen by them. So it was better to not fall in love, I was better of without it. For some, it might seem like a fascinating thing, and they crave it but I had long stopped believing in it. Because not everyone's life was a movie, we all got different

The truth may hurt or pain others but it's always better than being kept in dark, or getting to know it at the wrong time. At that time truth could be anything but nice still as time passes people understand that saying the truth was better than making up a lie. You could be happy for a while, you could get many things by a lie but in the end, you will be alone, empty-hand. A lie couldn't be hidden for too long so taking a deep breath to calm my racing heart, I said it. The things that I wanted to hide from everyone, the things that I wanted to forget but they just somehow came back again in my life, I told him all about it, wishing he would understand me. "Andrew was my boyfriend for three years." I played with my hands not knowing if I should even continue this. I was already feeling miserable just by thinking about that young stupid me. "Oh. " Glancing up I saw a hurt expression on his face as he tried not to look at me. "I thought I was ha
