AliciaThe doors swing open and she walks into the room, her heels making a triumphing sound.She pushes my head with a finger and watch me cry out in pain. I have been crying for an hour now, I can’t even feel part of my body. She grabs my face in her palm then holds up a phone to my face, the flashlight blinds my eyes then she laughs as she videos me. This must be a souvenir to remember what she had done to me.“Smile” she demands but I just glare at her. If I wasn’t restraint then I would have fought with her the best I could, it may not be much but I would leave a mark on her face.Noticing that I wasn’t responding, she punched me in the face, “Smile bitch”. My nose is bleeding once again and I can’t even speak at this point. Everything hurt like hell not just physically, the pressure on my lungs is too much and I can hardly breath.A frown shows up on her face as she shoved my face aside and turn the the camera to herself.“That’s what you get” she said and stomped her heels out
Alicia I open my eyes to my dimly lit room, it was already 6 am in the morning. A smile crept on my face knowing what the day was.It was my Wedding Day, it was my day. I was finally getting married to the man I love, to the man that makes my heart thump.I have had thought about this for so long and how perfect my Wedding day would be. For months I have been making arrangements to have the best wedding in Town, my parents had invited all the elites in the town and my wedding was already the talk of the town.Pulling the curtains and opening the windows, the morning air hit me like a wave, I took a full breath in to energize myself for the day I was going to have then began to admire the scenery in front of me. The trees, the beautiful garden, the sound of the birds chirping, everything looked so beautiful that I couldn’t hold it in. I wanted to scream, I had held it in for a while, the excitement was choking me know it was my wedding and I really wanted to tell everyone, to brag ab
“He is gone” he said.“What!”“What do you… what do you mean he is gone” I stuttered.“We can’t find him anywhere, we reached out to his parents and they can’t get in touch with him either and that only means”“Don’t” I stopped my father before he could utter the next words. I didn’t want to believe what he was about to say. John would never do that to me, he would never abandon me on my wedding day, on our wedding day.I took three steps backwards allowing everything to replay in my head, trying to see if I could put the old pieces together, maybe there was something that I missed. I tried so hard but I still couldn’t get anything. I was now a mess, I was looking like a mess and my whole wedding was a mess.“My dear, maybe this is for the best” he added moving closer to me. “Don’t say that Father, don’t you dare say that to me. I know that you may not like John but I love him”.A thought struck into his head and I stared at him furiously.“Did you do anything to him, please tell me
Alicia povI woke up the next morning feeling the chills, the window was wildly open and so was the door which had been open all night. I could barely feel my legs as I laid on the cold floor, it was as if blood had stopped flowing to that region and it felt heavy.Part of my dress was still wet like I had been crying in my sleep.I know it was kind of wrong but being in a room that I had once shared with John made me miss him.NO, I should be angry about it, I should get mad, he left me at our wedding without a word. Barely able to stand up, I stumbled back to the ground in pain, my whole body was in pain but it wasn’t as painful as what my heart was going through at the moment.I had never been so heartbroken in my life, it felt so real like I could rip my heart out and fix it myself but I couldn’t do that otherwise I would be dead, maybe it was because I had dedicated my whole life to one man, all I had ever dreamed of was him and being with him that it hurt so much.He was the lo
DerekDays had passed and I have heard not a single good news, being cuddled up at work wondering each day when I will find him. I have my men in every path I know of, searching for him.I couldn’t let this slide, a betrayal is a betrayal no matter how close he was to me.There were several things I could turn a blind eye to but being betrayed was one thing that I would never let slide.Ring’ came the sound of my phone,“Yes”“We found him Boss, he came to visit his mother at the island” one of my men reported.“Follow him until he gets come, I don’t want to go through the hassle of going to an island for an idiot like him, when the time is right, bring him to me” “Yes boss”I leaned back on my seat staring at the night sky, it was full of stars as always but nothing could stop my itching to get my hands dirty. Sitting right there waiting for my prey to fall into my trap was one of the wonderful games I have ever played in my life, I knew he would fall into it and I was damn right pa
DerekI sat there comfortably while I watched him ramble about things I had no interest in. The mansion I was in was sophisticated, it had a woman’s touch to it, the walls were perfect white, glowing too much into my eyes. I hated it,I hated this place,I hated being there,But what can I do, the heart wants what it wants.Mr Grimstone is quite a charitable man and I could already tell how his daughter got such a trait but all I wanted was to take what belonged to me and get out of there.There were several ways I deal with my business, the dark side and the greedy side.Whenever I bring up a business offer, no matter who I was facing, they would all agree as far as money was involved. Anything to fill the pocket of these hungry business men but Mr Grimstone was different. He wasn’t after money, he was after his reputation.His reputation had taken a drastic fall after his daughter had been dumped at the altar. Funny enough I didn’t know about all these until last night,“I curse t
AliciaIt has only been seventeen hours since I escaped that man, not being able to sleep a wink or close my eyes for a second. Each time I try to, I am reminded of that horrible scene, how his face brightened up when he haunted me. I have never been so scared in my life.I had my phone in my hand with 911 on the screen but I began to think of the consequences of my action. Would he be able to track me down? would he harm my family for ratting him out.My heart race as I think of what could happen. I blame myself, if I hadn’t gone down that stupid path then I would probably be only dealing with the fact that my ex dumped me at the altar and not worry about a lunatic chasing me because I saw what I shouldn’t have.Help me God”, I cried out. My hands and feet are all sweating and my stomach churn at each second it got, I have been to the toilet ten times in four hours. Somehow my bladder failed to hold up its end of the bargain leaving me hanging with an outburst each thing my heart thu
AliciaI am seated in a dimly lit room, quiet and senile, all I could see is my reflection in the mirror. I am wearing a white wedding dress which I had no desire to admire. It wasn’t my first time wearing a dress like that and it didn’t for once give me good memories.I held the hem of my dress thinking about the decision I had made that would be stuck with me for the rest of my life.I am about to marry a man who I know very well will torment me for the rest of my life.I am scared, I can’t even think of the future that awaits me, a future that I know would haunt me.I had been so lost in my thoughts that I didn’t notice my mother walk in until I felt a soft kiss on my cheeks.I looked up to see my mother staring at me with teary eyes, it was now an habit of hers to cry at every wedding. I am pissed off by it but I don’t want to show it to her. I have to be calm, I have to smile and act like nothing happened. I cannot lose my family, I cannot watch them die because of the actions I
