FIONA

I decided to go back to my room and get and get a few of my clothes, since I'll be living with Aiden from now on.

.....

I put the last of my clothes into a big suitcase and closed it. I looked around the room that I had spent my entire life in. I did feel a bit wistful to be leaving my parents house like this.

Besides the time when I went away to study, I have never lived away from my parents before. It's going to be just one year but I felt that it was such a huge milestone for me.

Just then, the door to my room was pushed open and my mom walked in. She saw me closing my suitcase.

And walked over to me with tears in het eyes. "I can't believe that my Little girl is all grown up and leaving home now....it was just yesterday when I held you in my arms in the hospital....but you are all grown up and getting married now...I don't know what to feel I want you to be happy but I don't want to let you go either" mom said.

I sighed. "Mom, it's not like I'm a little girl any more. I'

But bring in the presence of his fake wife made him feel pressure. He really just wanted to make a run for it. Ever since Fiona's Mother left because she wanted to go "check on Fiona", he knew that the mam was going to grill him. But a few minutes after his wife left, Fiona's father still had not said anything to him. He just kept staring intently at him. Aiden guessed that he was trying to make him lower his guard and he knew that it was working really well! "So tell me Aiden, what is it exactly that you are doing with my daughter!"

    AUTHOR POVFiona looked at Aiden. He had an angry look on his face. "What happened? Did my dad make things hard for you? Just don't pay attention to him. He's mad now and his bark is worse than his bite. He won't do anything " she said. Even as she said this, I hoped to God that she is right. Fiona don't want her dad to hurt Aiden just because of her. Aiden gave her a look that told Fiona that he wasn't too sure about that. "Are you sure of that? Are you sure that he's not going to do anything?" Aiden asked her. She shook my head. "No. He's not" she said. Aiden sighed. "Fine. Do you want to go meet my parents or do you want to go home for today?" Aiden asked Fiona. She shook my head. Fiona had planned to meet his parents today but she was drained after dealing with her family and she didn't think that she had the strength to deal with his parents. She just wanted to go home and sleep off this hard day."I don't think that I have the strength to deal with my mom too. She's real

    AUTHOR POVShe was here first and she deserves to have the dress! Since it's something that she really likes and since the sales person is treating her like this, Fiona wasn't willing to back down at all. "What is the meaning of this? Who is she?" One of the women asked the sales person. The sales person immediately turned to her Witt a fawning smile on her face. "You don't need to worry Candice. This is just a small misunderstanding. This person should not be here in the first place" the sales person said. Since she should not be here then you had better chase her away! What is the meaning of this? Cheryl just wants to shop! Why does she have to deal with annoying people like this?" The other girl Cindy asked. The sales person nodded her head. "Yes, yes you are right. She should not be here. I'll immediately get her to leave. How does that sound?" "Good enough. I don't want this mall to be tainted by people like her!" Candice said. "You've heard Miss Candice right? Get out of

    FIONA" Yeah, why don't you go cry to your parents? You see, Candice has parents who can buy this entire mall for her. And as for you, you don't so you can only sit back and deal with this. Get out of this place now if you know what's good for you!" Cindy said. I looked at the two women in front of me who seemed to be having the fun of thier lives making fun of themselves or whatever it is they think they are doing right now. All of this was just funny to me. In my opinion , these two idiots just weren't worth the effort at all. They are both wannabes. Judging from the clothes they were wearing, they are probably people who just got rich and who want to show the whole world just how rich they are. It's just disgusting if you ask me. "Do you really think that I can't afford this dress? Do you go around harassing people like this? Thinking that they aren't as rich as you?" I asked her. "You'll never be as rich as Candice no matter how much you try in your life! Not only is her fathe

With a team mate like Cindy who can't keep her mouth shut and who doesn't know how to read a room, Candice is going to meet her demise soon. "I am your boyfriend Candice? Why did I not know this? How come did I enter a relationship without my knowledge?" Aiden asked with a small smile playing on his lips. I didn't even try to hide the fact that I was laughing now. They deserve it. I looked at the sales person. At leàst she is smarter than this idiot Cindy. She has seen that something is wrong and she has shruken herself into a corner. How pathetic. "I...." Candice tried to say something but as usual, her dumb team mate Cindy stepped into to make things worse for Candice. "What do you mean that you don't know that she's your girlfriend! You are here with your secretary and you don't want to acknowledge your girlfriend? What kind o

She seems to think that I will magically become blinded by her beauty and that something will happen between us. "Candice, we already broke up. Why do you go around spreading rumours?" I asked her. "It's all because I love you Aiden. I love you. No one else will ever love you the way that I do and you know it! You are the love of my life. I admit that I lied but it's because I never thought of us as seperated. We are still together. You can't let some jealous woman pull us apart right?" Candice asked me. I shook my head. I don't know why the fuck I got involved with Candice before. Why did I thujk that it will be a good idea to date her?Obviously she doe

I think that I am going to lose my mind if he keeps treating me like this for the duration of my pregnancy. I'd definitely lose my mind if this continues itself.

Her mom and Eric's wife Esther were there with her. She went out to show her critiques who sat regally on the chair sipping lemonade. She eyed them dubiously and mouth "really??" With an arched eyebrow. They were only sitting there, enjoying a glass of lemonade and scrolling through the magazine while Fiona was made to endure the prickling and prodding of the stylist. "What do you think??" She asked without much enthusiasm. She felt beautiful but she wanted to hear from them. She gasped, stood up and walked towards her with beaming smiles on their faces."Oh my! You look adoring." Esther squealed into her hand and giggled excitedly. Fiona rolled my eyes as her mum and Esther passed a secret look at themselves. It was secretive if they were passing those looks in front of her. She almost facepalm
