2024-10-29 19:42:56I sat by the balcony and stared at the view from it. The view I found interesting, was now as frustrating as shit.
It was almost a month since we got married and my life had been a living hell. My daily routine was to wake up, eat, watch TV and sleep. What a stupid life.
I had hardly seen Ace in those weeks. I only saw him about twice, since we returned from our fake honeymoon. I was literally tired of my life. I never imagined my marital life to be like this.
Slowly, I was getting rid of Drake. He was hardly on my mind anymore. Even when I saw his posts, it didn't have much effect on me, or any effect on me. I was finally able to ignore him.
But, I still missed his company a bit. Not as a boyfriend, but as a comforter, or friend. I was damn tired of living with Ace.
The last two times I saw him, I confronted him for the reason he kept me in this bondage. All he could do was to ignore. And even when he spoke,

I got back from accompanying Emily to her car, and stepped into my room. I was damn exhausted already. My day was super stressful. But thanks to Emily, I didn't feel it so much.I smiled on remembering her cute smile and her jokes tonight. She was so amazing. She reminded me of the times we used to have fun together.For some reason, I regretted the fact I was married already. It made me feel less free with her, and that wasn't supposed to be. Firstly, I wasn't committed to my marriage, and secondly, she was the only one who was there for me, when I needed someone. She was the only one that knew my past, and the only that helped me to be normal again. I felt like I was betraying her.I sighed and rubbed my hands again my forehead, trying to get rid of the horrible thoughts.I spotted Mia on the couch and turned away. She was the one who was making me feel this way, and I didn't know why.I sat on my
HIS ARRANGED WIFE Respect!
I still sat on the couch. I could hardly go anywhere. It was ten already but I didn't feel like moving all day.Ace's glare and shouts were what suspended in my mind. It was an additional distress. I never imagined my marriage to be so terrific. I wished I had opt out earlier. Regrets were the only things I could think of, in the last three hours. I really hated him.Sometimes, I'd think of giving our relationship a chance. At least, we couldn't continue to live our lives like this, till we died. I thought of becoming friends with him. But after the scene, I had nothing left for him, but hatred.I thought of running away, but that wasn't possible. Besides the tight security, what would happen to those who appreciated his marriage? Someone like my mum in-law. How was she going to feel?I stood and finally headed to the bathroom. I needed to have a long, warm shower. My eyes were already swollen, and I looked extremel

MIAI rolled on the couch, uncomfortably. It seemed like I was getting fatter. The couch wasn't comforting to lie onanymore.I rubbed my hands against my face and sat on it. I scanned my eyes through the huge room and noticed that Ace wasn't around. That was great!After our argument last night, he stepped out of the room, angrily. I didn't know whether he returned or not. Good for me.I sighed and walked to the bathroom. I stared at myself, through the huge glass mirror. I looked damn pale and tired. My eyes were swollen and red too. I just couldn't explain my look. My cute face was fucking terrible!I frowned at how stupid I made myself become. I thought I wasn't going to argue anymore, but no, it just couldn't happen.If I didn't argue with him, he'd make my life so horrific!I hurried to have my bath, and slipped on a black, short, f

Emma; Mrs NormanI sat on the sofa in my room, and went through the pictures of my boy, Ace.He was wonderful as a little boy. I just couldn't understand what made him change so badly. As a responsible mother, I could tell that something definitely caused it. I just couldn't figure out what it was, and that always made me feel useless.I sighed as I glanced through the pictures, and spotted something that made me tremble. It was my little girl, Jamilah.Not wanting to think further about her, I dropped the book of pictures and sauntered to the bathroom.I sprinkled some water on my face, and stared at myself through the mirror.Anytime I thought about the poor girl, I always had a terrible trauma. A trauma I just couldn't forget."What's wrong Emma?" Alfred asked in a worry tone.I flinched

My already jumbled life seemed to be getting worse. I was totally out of this world. I could pass out in no time. My sense wasn't in its right form. I was sure of it.I gulped in deeply, as I stared at her. She didn't take a step forward, or backward. She seemed to be broken and crumbled too. Her mouth dropped on her jaw, like she literally just experienced the greatest SHOCKER in her entire life."Ma." I traipsed to her.She ignored me completely, and stared intensely at Ace. Her gaze was completely focused on him.He equally seemed shocked and worried. We were all shocked from one thing or the other.It was surprising that she came around. She didn't state it to us before. She probably planned to give us a surprise visit, and unfortunately, she had to observe our crazy argument. It was indeed a surprise.I felt stupid and sad, about how I was becoming
HIS ARRANGED WIFE Passage
ACEI rubbed my hands against my forehead, as I went through the files on my table. I couldn't concentrate on my work in the last few days. Everything seemed really confusing and frustrating. I didn't really understand what was wrong.After the day my mom hit me, I became perplexed at everything I was doing. I wanted to apologize to her, but I just didn't know how to. It was really hard to not speak to her in two weeks. It was so annoying!Besides her, Mia ignored every of my tease. She was really being obedient to whatever instruction I gave, and that was quite amazing.Emily also wasn't around since a week ago. She had to do some important work, and that frustrated me even more. There was no one to accompany me.It was five in the evening already. I needed to relax. Work was really tiring these days. It got me so screwed up.I arranged the
HIS ARRANGED WIFE Escape(1)
ACE"Oh Ace! This room is gorgeous!" Emily exclaimed.I rolled my eyes and walked behind Emily, as she traipsed into the room. I was really exhausted. Our journey was a really stressful one. Besides the long journey, Emily's over excitement was already getting on my nerves. She seemed to talk too much, or comment on unnecessary things. I was so used to it, but I didn't know why it irritated me. It was probably because I was stressed out, but my heart didn't think so.To be sincere, I somewhat felt weird that I was on a trip with Emily. At first, it seemed completely normal to me, but later, it felt like I wasn't doing the right thing.I wanted to get rid of that thought, but it kept flashing into my sense. It kept ringing, and clamoring in my mind. I just couldn't understand the reason.This was one of the reasons I didn't want to get married. I probably felt that
HIS ARRANGED WIFE Truth =_=
I quivered as I stood, staring at him. Why did I have to see him? Why couldn't he stop teasing my heart? What did he want from my soul?It was Drake! It was him again. Why did I have to see him again? I was slowly getting rid of my memories about him, and I was almost completing that task. So why now?!My eyes were already filled with tears, and I tried so hard to prevent it from dropping.I swallowed again and quickly averted from our stare. There was a probability that he wouldn't recognize me, but I doubted that. He narrowed his eyes and seemed to be noticing me."Sorry." I lowered my head, trying to prevent him from observing me further, and hurried to walk past him.That was a little relief. But still, I wasn't sure he didn't discern me."Mia." He called, causing my heart to ache.I thought he wasn't going to cognize me. So foolish of me

HIS ARRANGED WIFE Epilogue
ACE"Daya and Ace." A voice called from behind.I twirled to face who it was, and turned back to wink at Daya. She smiled like she was shy, and her cheeks turned tomato red."Stop that Ace." She blushed, and gently hit against my arm. "You're making me feel weird."I smiled stylishly at her, and stood up from sitting beside her. "I'll be leaving now." I informed her, and winked again."Good." She said, remaining in her sitting posture.I bent a little, and dropped a kiss on her cheek. "Bye dear. See you anytime soon.""Bye." She grinned back at me."Good luck on your date." I added silently, still bending to her ear."Thank you." She replied in a whisper.I turned to the door, and smiled at the young adult my seventeen years
HIS ARRANGED WIFE Attack: Last chapter
"Common Ace." I pouted like a child as I sat beside him on the bed, and tucked my arms across my chest, frowning slightly at him.He rolled on the bed lazily, and rubbed his hands against his sleepy eyes. "Mia…" He called amidst a soft yawn. "I'm so tired. Let me sleep for one more hour.""You want to sleep right?" I cried, and shifted to the corner of the bed. "Fine. I'll leave you here."I was about to stand up when he held my hands and pulled me back to him, causing me to gasp and fall on his chest."Where are you going kitten?" He teased, forming a smile by the corner of his attractive lips.I continued to frown, and averted from staring into his eyes. "I told you to get up, and you're ignoring me." I complained.He raised his left hand to my face, and turned my jaw to look at him again. "I'm so sorry my princess. I've been
HIS ARRANGED WIFE One more chance
Waiting for an answer from her, I stared and did nothing. I wondered what she was planning to say. There was no excuse she could sputter anymore. Her lie was definitely the most stupid thing I had ever heard from anyone.While I searched for some things about her, I saw my picture, my mom's, and our wedding pictures. I seriously couldn't explain how she had them with her, but all I knew was that I was so glad I found it.A tear dropped from one of her eyes, making her to suddenly avert from our stare. I wish I could feel how hurt she was. Her husband literally sent her out of her home because he couldn't believe her. I was indeed a foolish guy.She sniffed, and rubbed her palm against her tearing eyes, still not looking at me. "What do you want?" She asked calmly, concentrating on the window as if I wasn't there.Her weak voice weakened me as well. I became so rueful and sorrowful,
HIS ARRANGED WIFE Seen her
I stared at her in confusion. She was only hardening my pain. What was she asking? Was she trying to joke around or something?"What's going on, Mr?" She questioned sharply, tapping my hands from her arms.I furrowed my brows in a great deal of puzzlement, and held her arms again."Can't you speak?" She caught me out of my thoughts. "You first came into the ladies restroom, and now you're calling me Mia. What's with you?""What's wrong with you Mia? Are you…" I tried to speak again."Hey." She retorted, jerking from my hold, and raising a finger to point it in my face. "Don't try to act smart dude. I know what you guys do. You come to poor ladies like us, and try to hook up with us for a night.""Hook up? What's wrong with you Mia?""I should be asking you that. Mister." She attacked my words immediately. "And yeah, who
HIS ARRANGED WIFE Who are you?
"Hey Mr Norman." One of the representatives of a really great company in Fort Myers, walked to me, smiling broadly like he just won a lottery. His bright eyes glowered in his wrinkled dark skin, making him seem so appealing.I tried to return his smile, as I walked towards him before he reached me. "Hi Mr Balogun." I greeted him."It's really nice to see you again." He stretched his hands for a handshake, still keeping his smile.I accepted his friendly handshake. "Same here. How have you been?""I've been doing so great." He replied enthusiastically in his luring African intonation. "It's just that I've been quite busy in my country, Nigeria. I haven't had time to work here in the states.""Oh. I get you." I nodded my head in acceptance. "And thanks for your great proposal in the meeting.""You're highly welcome." He grinned, and raised his hands
HIS ARRANGED WIFE Leave!
I clinged my cold fingers against each other and breathed in heavily to hide my fear. What if he was actually being serious? What if his crazy anger was permitting him to do something stupid again? That couldn't be possible. Ace loved me."You won't leave?" He disconnected me from my thoughts. From his serious and angry look, It seemed like he was actually being serious.I frowned a bit, trying to let him realize he was talking to me. "Wait Ace. Are you nuts? How can you tell me to leave you? Do I look like junk that you can throw into the trash can whenever you want?""I give you exactly five minutes to leave. I'll send your clothes to wherever you go." He mentioned pointedly, still panting heavily.I folded my arms across my chest in surprise. Was he that annoyed that he thought of something this stupid?"Tell me now." I said. "Where would I go? I know you're
HIS ARRANGED WIFE She's gone
ACEI waited impatiently in front of the door my mom was, wandering about like a confused person I persently was, and prayed so badly that nothing was going to happen to her.Unknowingly glimpsing at Mia, I observed that she seemed so worried like I was. So annoying. She was the mastermind behind everything that was happening.Earlier, I was really grateful to myself for having to tell her, but after everything that had happened, the only things that filled my heart were regrets. If I had known she would spill it out, I wouldn't have thought of saying anything to her.I turned from her irritating face, and finally stood in a particular position. My worry rate was increasing rapidly, and wasn't willing to fall at all. Goodness knew if I was going to survive if I saw the only person I loved, leave me. That couldn't happen. Nothing was going to happen to her.
HIS ARRANGED WIFE Marriage at stake
We stepped into the hospital building, staring helplessly like a bunch of lost sheeps. The place was so big and fabulous that I didn't think my senses could locate any place.Not wasting any more time, I dailed Ace's number, and waited for him to answer his phone."Where are you?" He questioned straight as he picked it."What's wrong Ace?" I tried to figure out the shit that got into him."Answer me first." He ordered, in more like a menace. This guy was running amok. I was sure of it. So unstable like a twirling kite.I rolled my eyes over the phone, trying to ignore his annoying act. "I'm on the first floor of the building. Where do I--""Good. I'll send someone to direct you up here." He interrupted, hanging up the call liked he had done before.Slowly, his attitude was starting to affect me we
