Silence

Nora Delmas, 21 ans, étudiante en master de lettres, dissimule derrière son calme une obsession grandissante pour son professeur de théorie littéraire, Hugo Vanel, 42 ans, un homme à la beauté grave, à la voix posée et au regard troublant. Chaque cours devient pour elle un terrain de jeu silencieux : elle veut l’atteindre, le faire craquer, le posséder. Elle n’en fait jamais trop, mais toujours assez : une jupe trop courte pour être anodine, un regard qui dure une seconde de trop, des réponses brillamment construites en cours pour capter son attention. Hugo, lucide, devine le piège. Il tente de garder ses distances, mais la faille s’ouvre peu à peu. Un soir, dans son bureau, sous le prétexte d’un rendez-vous pour discuter de son mémoire, tout dérape. L’intellect s’efface, le silence devient dense. Un souffle. Un regard. Et l’interdit est franchi. S’ouvre alors une relation secrète, sensuelle et dangereuse, entre corridors vides, escaliers dérobés et chambres d’hôtel éloignées du campus. Mais Nora veut plus. Et Hugo le sait. Car les rumeurs naissent vite, dans les couloirs d’une faculté où tout se sait sans jamais se dire...

La vidéo de la demande en mariage de mon petit ami à sa secrétaire a fait le buzz, tout le monde s'est écrié que c'était romantique et touchant. La secrétaire a même écrit une publication sur Instagram : « Je t'ai enfin attendu, heureusement que je n'ai jamais abandonné. M. Robert, prenez soin de moi pour le reste de la vie. » Les commentaires fusaient : « Ils vont si bien ensemble, la secrétaire et le PDG, c'est le couple le plus mignon ! » Je n'ai ni pleuré ni crié, j'ai simplement éteint le téléphone en silence, et je suis allée chercher mon petit ami pour lui demander une explication. Mais j'ai entendu sa conversation avec un ami : « Je n'ai pas le choix, si je ne l'épouse pas, sa famille la forcera à épouser un homme qu'elle n'aime pas. » « Et Emma ? C'est ta vraie petite amie. Tu n'as pas peur qu'elle soit en colère ? » « Et alors ? Cela fait sept ans qu'Emma est avec moi, elle ne peut pas me quitter. » Plus tard, nous nous étions mariés le même jour. Les voitures de mariage se sont croisées, et au moment où les mariées échangeaient leurs bouquets, il m'a vue dans l'autre voiture… et il a complètement craqué.

My mother fell critically ill and was rushed to the hospital. Desperate, I knelt before my fiancé—the department's chief surgeon—and begged him to take charge of her operation. But outside the ICU, he was carefully tending to a scraped knee. Lucy Wendell's scraped knee, to be exact. Just as I was drowning in hopelessness, Cameron Mitchell—the hospital director and my childhood friend—pushed open the operating room doors and handed me a marriage proposal. "Marry me, and I'll personally perform your mother's surgery." With trembling hands, I signed my name, clinging to the last shred of hope that she could be saved. But she never made it through that stormy night. Cameron handled all the funeral arrangements himself, and our wedding proceeded as scheduled. Seven years later, in the hushed silence of the hospital archives, I overheard Cameron speaking with the deputy director. "Cameron, why did you transfer your mother-in-law's organ to Lucy's mother during that surgery? Weren't you afraid of getting caught?" "I owed Lucy," he replied. "If I hadn't hesitated back then, Lucy never would've chosen medical aid work in Africa… and her mother wouldn't have fallen ill from the grief."

Le jour de mon anniversaire, mon compagnon, Jackson, a épousé son premier amour dans une église. Quand je l'ai confronté, il m'a répondu froidement : « Layla a été empoisonnée par le poison du loup. Je ne fais que réaliser son dernier souhait. » « Tu nous vois vaiment trop tordus. Si j'avais été infidèle, tu l'aurais su, non ? » Il savait parfaitement que, pour le sauver, j'avais perdu mon âme de louve. Qu'entre lui et moi, il n'y avait plus cette connexion télépathique propre aux compagnons liés. Depuis longtemps, je n'étais plus qu'une ordinaire. Inutile. Je n'ai ni pleuré ni crié. En silence, j'ai pris rendez-vous chez la guérisseuse pour interrompre ma grossesse. Puis, j'ai quitté cette maison. À Jackson, je n'ai laissé qu'une lettre d'adieu, et un cadeau de divorce. Mais, sans que je comprenne pourquoi, Jackson — qui m'avait toujours traitée avec mépris — s'est mis à me chercher comme un fou, obsédé par ma trace.

Surrounded by the darkness, she wasn't sure what was this place. She was lost in this dark abyss and didn't knew the way out. She was tired now, tired of running in different directions yet reaching nowhere, tired of trying to be brave when she was everything but that. After few moments of silence when she thought nothing can go wrong now, she heard something. Sge turned and saw.. Nothing.. No! She was sure she heard that, it wasn't her hallucination. She was terrified yet didn't lose her facade of being the strong girl she is trying to be since the time she landed here. She looked everywhere but she wasn't able to locate the source, releasing a defeated sigh, she wandered her gaze above her and shrieked at the sight. He, with that terrifying yet the most attractive smirk on his face, was watching her from the building above her. He glared at her with those piercing eyes and evil look on his face. She didn't realized she was shivering and sweating badly and suddenly he was there just an inch away from her face. She felt like he snatched the oxygen from the atmosphere leaving her breathless. She started gasping for air. And then... Thud! She woke up sweating and breathing heavily. She observed her surrounding before taking a sigh of relief. It was a nightmare, again! But what's the gurantee it won't be a nightmare the next time? She knew her nightmare will soon turn to reality and this nightmarish reality will make her life hell. ••••••••••
