Deep down, I prayed for this to become a reality. That what I saw could become dust and convert into a hallucination.

I wanted this to happen. Badly.

I prayed for this miracle but it was soon stuck by a deadly realization that-

If she didn’t cheat on me then who was I hating all these years and why?

What am I supposed to do now with this hatred…?

"What?"

Sniveling, I wiped my eyes to clear my vision and espied her face properly.

Shaking violently, she brought hand slowly upon mine, voice lower than a whisper, "I… didn't cheat on you, Vincent."

"Come again?"

Blinking, I truly thought my ears were ringing, they were one of my imaginary scenarios. But, for the third and final time- she confirmed.

"Since you begged me to return your love and peace. There you go- I ‘never’ cheated on you.

Registering my storm of emotions and pulling away, my hands retreated like my steps. A fiery convulsion went down my spine.

"W-What? H-how?"

Pausing, my mind went blank, that sight appeared constant

    When my lips greeted hers, I felt paradise scattering in my laps. The sensation of her lips upon mine tranquilized my soul. Kissing her amplified my sensations. My heartbeats, my breaths, my heat, the rush in my vein. All of it slipped out of my control. She was too stunned to react but I kept her body securely locked with mine so I could kiss her properly but it was sloppy and rough. But, I indulged in the mystic rhythm. Exactly how I imagined it.I was ready that the moment my heart would break the chain of hatred, I would kiss her passionately which I did. I was living my imagination.The way my lips made contact with her cold and dry ones, the way she was locked with my body- All of it was exquisite.I poured all my emotions in my kiss. But, sadly, she didn’t comply with my imagination and ruined it entirely by gasping, holding my shoulders and pushing me away. She ripped our bodies apart without a second thought. “Anna-” Before I could complete my sentence, a fury surroun

    After Annalise left. I stood still, not moving an inch with my eyes affixed on the ground. There were countless thoughts, unwanted and unfavored ones to cause a commotion in my mind. But, her words surely induced a realization- ‘My hatred was my only link to keep us together and when it had obliterated- she had become a stranger. What I feared the most occurred- From this moment onwards, we are truly nothing.’ As I was standing with no hope of senses left in my mind and body, a voice tenderly called me to drag me out from this state. “Vincent?” I showed no reaction, devoid eyes with dried tears, staring at the ground to search for a new reason to live but which promise can tie me to her? Everything is ruined. “Vincent?” Calling me again, her hand shook my shoulder releasing a soft voice of astonishment. Blinking, I finally regained my senses and turned to her, “Huh?” Victoria was there. Concerned about my wellbeing but when my eyes fell upon hers, I felt nothing. I saw n

    ANNALISE. Why did you enter his life if you wanted to leave it? Why did you love him when it was false? Why did you give him an irrecoverable scar if you never intended to heal it? Why did you do this to him, Annalise? Now come and end this baseless bond you created with your hatred. End this now… After destroying his emotions heartlessly, I returned home with heavy steps followed by the weight of my deeds. “Elise? You are home already? Is Edmond okay?” Papa asked as I left in a hurry to get Edmond to fight with him. “Yeah…” Tears were glistening in my eyes but I put up a stoic front. No reaction, no expression, only a void. “Edmond is such a good man. I don’t think he would fight anyone. Someone must have provoked him.” Mama also said, refusing to believe he would fight with anyone. She had begun to like him a lot. But, my mind was elsewhere, I was only thinking about a certain person. I amplified his misery instead of returning his peace. Nothing was fixed. “Elise? W

    For the rest of the day, we maintained distance. Things I urged to speak were stopped at the edge of my tongue, the dread of hearing something I couldn’t bear refrained me. ‘Did I truly murder what we had?’ This distance was inducing a sting I never perceived I would receive.‘Is our separation breaking my heart…?’Apprehension rushed in my veins when this thought evoked. Shaking my head, I tried to shift my mind and went to get him his coffee."Your coffee…" Whispering, I gave him his tray.My hands trembled a little, my thoughts were afflicting my mind, rendering me unable to work properly. "Give it-" He was about to take the cup while being focused on his file which caused our hands to collide and accidentally spilled some coffee on my hand. "Argh." Wincing by the burn, I put the cup down and began to blow on my hand. The sound of my wince gained his attention."What happened, Annalise?” Turning to me quickly, he took my hand in his warm and large one which stiff me for a se

    VINCENT. ‘Can I forgive you, my heartbreaker?’ I couldn’t control myself in her presence, she was intoxicating my ability to think. The fact she was not a deceiver relieved me but as she said, she had broken my heart. How can I forgive her for that? Then why does this stupid heart lose itself before her? My emotions overflowed before her presence and I couldn’t stop myself from eradicating distances. My body acted on its own maybe because there are no restrictions. Nothing could stop me. One day, I saw Annalise walking down the corridor, carrying the file, delivering them to their respective places. I waited for her to enter the lift so we could be alone there. The moment we were left alone in the lift, I turned to her, my hands resting in my pocket, a sly smirk coming to my lips as I took a step closer. “Annalise.” I called, noticing her features, realizing each time my eyes fall upon her figure, I find her at the peak of beauty. How could someone be this arresting yet

    “There you go, I threw away this shackle.” Holding her elbow, I pulled her back to refrain her from searching for it and saw the direness in my eyes to notice I was not jesting around. “What more reason do you need to push me away? What do you want me to do now to make me stay away?” Hissing, I slammed my hand on the table, startling her. “Because I swear, I will eradicate them all one by one until you can’t run away from me anymore.” Snarling, I told her what I intended to do, even if it frightened her. I won’t stop this time. I gained her after countless prayers and efforts, she cannot find redemption from my domain. “No.. No..” Upon greeting my seriousness, she tried to move back, shaking her head in denial, dread creeping upon her beautiful features but my grip on her elbow tightly, pulling her close. “How many times your steps will retreat, Annalise?” Shivering, distress crept upon her features when I captured her in my arms. “One day you will reach an end and then.”

    It’s been a few days, I was avoiding her for the time being to grasp my emotions before reacting. She walked after immobilizing my body so delicately that I believe I stood where she left. I was fragmenting each passing second by the way she stole my peace. It was never the fact that I belonged to someone else. And now I want her more abysmally. “Are you leaving?” I rushed to her office when she was about to leave for her home. “Yes.” Humming, she was organizing her things before leaving. “Come with me. I will drop you. You didn’t eat anything either.” Clearing my throat, I offered politely but not looking directly at her. “You don’t have to be concerned about it.” She mumbled, taking her bag to leave but I placed my hand across the door frame, blocking her path. “But, I am because I care for you.” I sighed, trying to make her understand. “I don’t need or deserve it.” With a cold reply, she lowered her head and was about to walk away but I pulled her back inside the room.

    ANNALISE.Let it go this once, Annalise. Don’t stop today. When my lips made contact with his, my life began to make sense. It felt explicitly beautiful and I melted before desires, before his words.Closing my eyes, I kissed him back, holding his neck, moving my lips passionately upon his. My acceptance made him smile as his fingers tightened around my hair, causing me to moan and him to deepen our kiss.A shiver went down my spine when his fingers grazed from my neck to my waist, sliding his hand inside my shirt which made me gasp from pleasure.His fingers grabbed my bare skin, holding it affectionately but possessively at the same time. “Vincent…” Moaning, I unintentionally dug my nail on his skin, causing him to shiver and press me hard against his desirable body. It felt ethereal. I wanted this. I wanted him. After an unforgettable kiss, filled with gratification and unspoken connection I was denying all this, we both pulled away with a pant.“Annalise…” He called me breat

    5 YEARS LATER.I was setting the school bag of my four years old son, Jamie. He was messy just like his Father. Sighing, I was putting the lunch and placing the books properly.“Can I take Dahlia to school with me? Please, please, please?” Jamie called me excitedly, pointing at his Father and three months old sister who were sleeping on the couch in the hall.“No, you cannot.” I sighed, frowning at the pair and giving him his bag.“Look, Mama, Papa and Dahlia are sleeping on the couch.” He giggled, clinging onto my arm.Actually, Dahlia was not sleeping last night and Vincent said proudly that he could take better care and took her outside and look at them now.Half of his body was hanging from the couch, holding Dahlia.“Ah, him.” I giggled, shaking my hand after seeing how uncomfortable he must be.“What are they doing outside?” Jamie asked, tugging my sleeves.“Your Papa proudly accepted he could take better care of Dahlia and seems like he is stubborn in proving it.” I sighed, set

    ANNALISE. I was carefully listening to his words, how his eyes were refusing to greet mine and it was aching me but he couldn’t see. He was not looking at me in the first place to notice the tears glistening in my eyes. “Come. Let’s end this pointless relationship.” And I lost my forbearance when he dared to speak what I cannot have imagined, releasing the tears I managed to suppress so far. And brimming with fury, I slapped him hard to knock some senses into his damn mind which astonished him to no extent. “How dare you call our marriage pointless?!” I whisper-yelled. Grabbing the collar of his shirt outrageously with tears scattered over my cheeks. “Annalise?” He called me hesitantly at my unforeseen action as I forced him to stare into my desperation, to witness my love and despair too. I wanted him to see my condition. “Do you have any idea how deeply I am in love with you? That I have given my all to our marriage?” I asked desperately, shaking him a little to hear m

    After I mindlessly hit Edmond and lost myself, unable to control myself, the neighbors came and forced me to stop until the cops came and took me away.I was looking down the whole time, not moving an inch with an anguish stacking in my chest, I was heartbroken. I felt devastated for losing control and doing what I shouldn’t.Something is seriously wrong with me. Here, in the station, I was locked up and Annalise was talking to Edmond.“I am begging you, Edmond, please, don’t file a case against Vincent.” Their voices were faint but I could hear how my Annalise was begging Edmond to not send me to jail. Tears brimmed in my eyes as I kept staring at my hands out of woe. I didn’t want to hurt anyone. I didn’t want to make Annalise cry. This is not who I am, that is not who I should be.I am sorry, I am so sorry…“Edmond, please…” She continued to beg Edmond for her husband’s image. I had never been behind the bars in my entire life. I felt horrible, I was never like this and with

    The next morning, I was in my bed, refusing to move an inch. My head was throbbing in pain. I couldn’t move my body, it was burning.It was because of the stress, whenever I worried too much, my body began to burn, my head began to hurt terribly and I didn’t know how to deal with this ordeal.For a while, I remained motionless, covering myself with the blanket until the tenderest hand of my angelic wife dragged the sheets down from me. “Vincent. Wake up.” She whispered softly.Removing the duvet and sitting next to me. “I don’t want to.” I groaned, turning to my side, hiding my face in the pillow, not in the mood to move. I had borne with this feverish feeling before when she was here, I wanted to display that I am in pain and stay with me.Before I was alone, I had no one to take care of him so no matter what state, I must go to work but I have a reason to stay.I won’t go today.“Why?” She called but I refused to listen to her. Glancing from my shoulder, I looked at her timidly,

    VINCENT.The following week, limitless thoughts were roaming in my mind. I was tense, I was perturbed about what I should do that could save my marriage. I could feel it under my fingernails that things were on the verge of falling apart all because of my behavior and I was impotent to stop it.I failed to control, I failed to keep her happy. In fact, I made her cry after promising myself that I wouldn’t.I feel worthless. I feel terrible.It was Sunday, my soul was at solace to hold my love. We were spooning on the bed, I was holding her, her back pressed over my chest.“How are you feeling now?” I whispered, biting her earlobe when she woke up from her nap.Annalise was having a headache constantly so I massaged her head until she fell asleep and took a nap with her as well.“Better.” She hummed, relaxing in my arms, smiling tenderly.I hummed and shifted, sitting up slowly. Worried how to confront her about what I knew I must. I couldn’t lose my love with my own hand.I cannot mak

    “YOU ARE A LIAR!” The sound of his thundering cries echoed in the room and they hurt me in a way I was unable to recover. The sound I unintentionally created. He covered his mouth, sobbing. And I couldn’t bear it, his sorrow was immeasurable and it made me guilty. Shutting my eyes, I screamed to release the shame gathered inside me.“I AM SORRY! I AM SORRY! I AM SORRY!” Crying my anguish out, I held the hem of my dress. My tears were flowing, he was not the only person whose heart was torn apart. The regret that was built inside me had already stolen my mental peace. I don’t want to hear from him that I am his culprit. I know I am.“I will apologize as many times as you want, Vincent but please don’t be away from me.” Crying, I came closer, tears rolled down my cheek. My body was deprived of strength, I accidentally stumbled on my steps but Vincent held my arms to refrain me from falling.“Be careful!” He gasped quickly to hold me. He couldn't watch me falling or getting hurt

    “That I am going to steal you from this world and ensnare in a way, only ‘I’ would exist.” My breath hitched, my eyes widened in terror when I sensed Vincent’s dominant form before me, glaring down at my body which made my soul immobilized. “Vincent…?” Swallowing hard, I forced my weak orbs to look up at his assertive form. He rested his hand over the headrest and placed our heads adjacent.I shivered violently when the fumes emitting from him were felt by my skin. Unable to utter another sound, I knew he was furious. I gasped when his hand from the headrest moved across and rested over my shoulder, giving it a lethal grip which warned me not to do anything vacuous.“That you are going to become mine in an exquisite way that nobody would be able to stop me from possessing you.” “Vincent, please-”I was about to plead but he leaned down to my ears and growled seductively, burning my skin with his minty breath.“That you are going to become. All. Fucking. Mine.” I trembled, glanci

    There were countless questions and thoughts roaming wildly in my mind, thoughts that I wanted to share with someone to find and know what was happening.He cannot keep an eye on my actions, that is not okay. I won’t let it.And I knew for it, I had to do what might outrage him but I must do it.Before Vincent could come looking for me, I wanted to seek answers so I called Edmond to meet me in a restaurant.I was anxiously waiting for him, my hands were freezing by the thought of Vincent’s fury. It was scaring me, It was stressing me out.“I didn’t expect you to call me here. What happened? Is your fairytale coming to an end?” Edmond came, smirking mockingly at me but I growled at him.“Shut up. I have called you here to know everything.” I hissed in a low tone. He chuckled and took a seat, arching one eyebrow.“Everything? I thought I was a liar and the bad guy here.” He taunted, leaning back on his seat.Inhaling deeply, I was not in the mood for argument so I came to the main conce

    ANNALISE.After spending a memorable and unforgettable time alone, away from everything we returned back, back to our routine and I was feeling strange lately.I didn’t expect Vincent to get this furious because of my harmless prank. I was only kidding around but the way he got perturbed, that made me worried.I wanted him to improve but I agree it would take time. Vincent is attached to me, he couldn’t fathom losing me. I am all he has after all. He was like that all his life, of course that would take time for him to adjust, to settle. Marriage is a sacred and big responsibility, we need time.Vincent was humming to himself, his towel over his head as water dripped to his tempting exposed chest. He was about to leave to grab his white but I stopped him.“Love, I can get your white shirt.” I spoke sweetly, stopping him in his tracks, smiling sweetly.“No, no, it’s okay.” He chuckled nervously, stopping me.“Come on,” I whined, pushing him back playfully with a wink.
