Damien POV:It was peaceful in the house till Monday morning, and I was quite surprised that Dabby left home so early. I hated that everything had to be like this, especially the part about being home with a clumsy girl, but it was much better than seeing dad around. I got ready for the day quite late, and decided to work on some projects on my laptop. I could peacefully do these things because dad is not at home, and I was having my freedom doing them without any shitty talks. He always thought I was a failure ever since mum left, and he had been trying to mold me into the man that he was. That he wanted. I only had two options: Study business administration and lead the company, or study medicine and take over grandfather's hospital as the director. I hated both courses even if it was going to pave my way to success, and dad was never going to hear of anything than what he wanted. It was glaring that even if I became what he wanted me to be, I would never be enough for h

Dabby: "You got a new girl already?! Are you kidding Damien? Have you been two-timing?!" Madison rushed so many questions at him, and he just let out a derisive smirk and turned to her. "Do you know how disgusting it is to deal with you? Just a little breakup and you call the crowd. You really suck," he said to her face, and she could not hold her tears again. "So, who is your new girl? I am sure she cannot be any better than me! She would never be," Madison didn't give up still, and continued to shout and scream in anger. "You know what? I am sick of you, bitch. And that is why we are breaking up. I never want to see your face anywhere around me," he warned icily, "And also, for my new girlfriend. She doesn't have to be better than you. In fact, she might be a nerd, you know. A really innocent and clueless nerd," he emphasized on the last word, and continued to give me a very disgusting look. I hated that. Mason noticed what was going on between me and Damien, and just help

Damien: I had planned to break up with Madison on lover's day at school, and it worked out perfectly when she called again that morning, that she was in school already waiting for me. I left home a few minutes before school time, and got to the school park, to see her waiting there for me. She looked so happy to see me as she ran to hug me so tight, boasting that she knew I loved her too much not to talk to her for that long. I just smirked, and allowed her to do whatever she wanted to do."So what surprise do you have for me?" She giggled in excitement, and it made me chuckle more in maliciousness. The surprise I was about to give her was going to be too crazy to bear. "It's been two months since we started dating, right? And you seem to be the only one I have dated the longest," I pointed out facts one by one, and she was not cautious about the fact that something was about to go wrong. "Of course, Damien. I am the realest one amongst them bitches," She bragged with a signatur

Dabby: I might have wanted to be unconscious for a longer time, or better still fall into a coma even if it wasn't something to hope for. But I was too stressed out of my mind. Everything had become really exhausting, that I didn't want to try anymore. By the time I opened my eyes hours later after collapsing, I was lying on one of the beds in the school infirmary. An IV was passed to my arm, and it seemed like my arm had bandaged all over again. The pains I was feeling before were all gone, and everything just felt like nothing had happened at all. Except for the fact that my head almost split open the previous day, and the fact that I was lying on a hospital bed instead of sitting in class. There was no one around and it really felt so lonely and sad, because it was too painful to feel like no one even cared if I died. The patience my hope had was wearing thin, and I couldn't imagine living this kind of pathetic, ostracized life too in college. I let my thoughts get to me th

Dabby: It was after I returned to my room and sat on the bed, that I realized what I had said to Damien. Even though I knew that it was the truth and that we could really be stuck with one another till the end, I shouldn't have said anything to Damien. "You shouldn't have said it, Dabby. You shouldn't!" I scolded myself and stood up from the bed to pace around the room, wondering if that would even make him hate me more. My mind flashed back to the look he gave me when I said that, like I didn't even exist as someone reasonable before him. He just stood up and left the scene immediately. It was disheartening to know that I was trying my best to honor his wishes, and getting him to like me, but I was even doing it wrongly and getting things worse. 'But, I was so sick of hearing and knowing that he wanted us to leave. That he didn't like being family, as much as I hated it too. We really have a choice.'"You are fine, Dabby. You've got this. You can do it. You can survive even
