Behind the apple tree stood Mr. Brown, staring at his princess with eyes full of unfathomable emotions. He has been standing there close to an hour but it felt like nothing because the norms in his legs were nothing compared to the pain and cries he was hearing, his princess is broken and he is the course of it, his princess is miserable all because of him. How he wishes he could turn down this trip, he would've gladly done so but it is out of control. Tears run down his face as he watches her cry, his heart aches, and the pain in his chest increase, he crunch his chest with his left hand while supporting himself with his right hand on the apple tree, and he felt like crying out loud but he held himself from doing that because he can't let her know he is watching and like the man that he was, he won't want to show weakness, not this time when she was broken. He silently listen to her sing with a voice full of sadness and unspoken emotions, and all he could do was stand by and watch he

I like how the chemistry between Amalia and Jace is setting up even though they are from two different worlds. It's intriguing.

    Mr. Brown followed her from behind and stood by her door, silently listening to her talking to herself while sniffing from time to time due to the cold. He stayed there and only make a sound when he could no longer hear any noise coming from inside...he opens the door and walk in, quietly taking a seat by the side of the bed, he stares at his little princess sleeping all peacefully and beautifully. A sad smile forms on his lips as he lowers his head and peeks at her on her forehead causing Amalia to moan in her sleep. He went back to his room and lay on the bed as Lizzy slept peacefully beside him. Sleep was a mile away from him as he motionlessly stared at the ceiling without blinking with his thought running wide. Light pops up on his phone screen that was placed by his bedside and starts buzzing jolting him from his trance. He pick up the phone and check on the caller but wasn't surprised to see the caller's name because he has been expecting a call from him, his assistant. The ca

    "Amalia?" Mrs. Williams called her by her name to get her full attention as she held onto her cheeks "Listen to me, you have to be strong, for your dad and me...you can't allow this feeling overcome you. you are Amalia Brown, my once confident and strong Miss, don't let your fears get the best of you...you are stronger than this, be you, who can never break down in public...you can't let your stepmother and Dellia see you like this, you have to be strong, your oath to be to survive in this cruel world" Mrs. Williams spoke in a firm tone, trying to bring her to the present and make her see the realities of life. This world doesn't need weak people rather, it needs strong people to survive in it. Weak people are like prey that are exposed to their predators which are the strong and domineering ones and will only end up losing their lives before they know it.

  • IN YOUR ARMS   Chapter 12 Her worth

    Dellia places her legs on Amalias' thighs and ordered her to massage her feet. Amalia obediently did as she was told not saying a word. After a few presses on her legs,..." what are you doing? do you intend to break my legs so I won't be able to walk again or what?" Dellia screamed in annoyance..."I didn't do anything, I was simply massaging your leg just as you commanded.." Amalia was confused, she didn't understand what she did wrong *slap**slap* she didn't get to finish her words as slaps landed on her face on both sides, out of reflex, she held on to her cheeks with eyes widened in shock, still trying to process what just happened...the stinks were painful, no matter how much rights she gave Dellia, it doesn't mean she can disrespect her to such an extend. The urge to retaliate was at its peak but she still kept her cool not wanting her anger to cloud her thoughts because any action she takes will only get the situation worse and she will be the one sleeping outside for days

With so many emotions flowing through her right now, she could barely stand still as her vision becomes blurry from tears. She runs out of the mansion to the field with a heavy heart, the place she shared beautiful memories with him, the place her family sat, ate, and sing happily. She falls to the ground and screamed as loud as she could, her voice was filled with sorrow and pain, she could barely describe how she felt at that moment...Her entire world has crumbled, into dust and the wind has blown it away, not even a particle is left for her to hold on to it..." why?" she cried out, why do you have to leave me? why?..." why didn't you take me with you? why l

  • IN YOUR ARMS   Chapter 14 leaving home

    It was already midnight when Amalia left her dad's grave back home. The mansion was ghost-silent, she walks silently into the mansion while looking at it as if it was her first time entering it. It didn't feel like the place she's been living in all her life, it felt so different and empty. Not like there was no one living in it but the most precious things that were keeping her here and making it feel like home were no longer there. The emptiness of the house she once called home brought back the feeling of emptiness in her heart, tears rolls down her cheeks as she looks at every corner of the how as if trying to imprint the happiness she once felt. It doesn't feel like home, not anymore, she quietly climbs up the stairs to her room hoping it will be different, hoping it will end the emptiness she is feeling but to her dismay, it didn't. She touches every corner of her room that's within her reach to get the warmthness he once her but to no avail. Even the feel of her bed was differe
