I look around the brightly painted room as April looks for her drawing book under the pile of papers she has on her desk.The room was painted Hot pink and so were the carpets on the floor. It looks like the room came straight out of a Disney princess movie."I'm gonna go on a limb here and say you're favorite colour is pink."April chuckles as she pushes more papers off her desk until she final found a small black drawing book."It's not my all time favorite colour but it's what I'm feeling at the moment. Two months ago, my hair was bright purple and so was the walls and the carpets. Here." April pats the bed and gestures for me to sit next to her.Handing me her drawing book, she opened the cover to show me her first design."I came up with this a couple of years ago. I have more books but this one is very special."I looked through her designs and i was more than impressed."Wow... April this are really good."April beams at my comment as if she had never heard them from anyone els

Lucy ChawI looked through my boss' schedule and squeezed in a meeting with a potential investor before lunch.The Davis Company has been growing even more and stock price has shot through the roof. Stretched my arms above my head, i tried to relax my soar muscles. Last night had taken a tool on me. And even though the two tubes of ice cream i emptied helped, i still felt bad for eating so much.The dinner had really upset me. After the forced meal, we'd all collectively sat in the large sitting room in total silence. April tried her best to comfort me with a smile or by sitting next to me. But after a few minutes later, their parents asked to talk to April alone.They'd made their way to the room next to the one we were all at. Their voice was muffled but i could still guess that they were having a heated argument.After they returned, April had kept her distance from me and refused to even look at me. That moment had been unbearable. But just as Karl an

The car was filled in silence as Karl drove me to work the next morning. Last night, after sharing dinner with Ethan and Stuart, i had made sure to stay downstairs a little longer to make sure that Karl would be asleep before i join him.I can never know what could set him off and he is harmless in his sleep so it was the best choice.I'd sat on the bed for about ten minutes and watched him sleep. With all the glare, scowl, the pushed together eyebrows and the angry curl of his lips, Karl looked like an angel. He seemed as gentle and as soft as a giant Inc-ed teddy bear that i couldn't help but stare. This morning, instead of just making toast for myself, i made some eggs too, just like i did the day before, but Karl refused to look at it, let alone eat it. Lossing my appetite, I told Ethan and Stuart that they can have their breakfast.I've learned that those two have a live-in job. Which means they live with us and stay in the guest house. From what I've seen when i first moved in

I carefully walked down the stairs with April and Zeus leading infront.The red dress stops just below my knee and is so tight that i need to be careful when I'm walking in these red, devil might care, heels.I ran my fingers through my hair and pushed it off my face. Zeus had released my hair from the bun and had spilt it in half. The long, black strands fall on either side of my face, down both my shoulders. The three of us returned to the main sitting room. April took the seat next to Kaily and Zeus next to their parents. The only available seat was next to either Karl or next to June. With the glare June was sending my way, i chose to sit next to Karl.I can see from the corner of my eyes that Karl was staring at me. Not with a glare or anything... Just staring at me.I found my right hand fingers playing with my wedding band on my left ring finger."You look very beautiful, Lucy." Kaily complemented me and i found myself smiling at the youngest Thompson."Thanks. It's all thanks

Lucy Chaw.The drive this morning has been weird. Not only did Karl tell me that we have a dinner to attend himself instead of sending Ethan to get me, he had wished me a good day.For the last three weeks, I've been trying my best to be invisible. Which involved not talking to him and making sure I'm not in the kitchen when he comes down to get his morning coffee.The last thing i want is for Karl to send me away. He's made sure to remind me that i mean absolutely nothing to him that night three weeks ago. It's not a secret that Karl wants to see me hurt. But the pain is not as great as it was when i was back t my family's home. That house is filled with memories filled with nothing more than trauma i don't ever want to visit again.So, if being as invisible as a ghost is what i have to do to say here and never go back to the Chaw house, then so be it.But Karl striking up a conversation this morning was hell'a weird. Pushing the thought of my husband
