Chapter 3: Be with him

The next day

After a night where I barely slept an hour because we really were lustful until the end, we left the hotel and I am taken home, to change my clothes, to go to classes.

“I hate when I must leave you, but, I know you wouldn't be able to miss a class, miss... my lady and model student.

“See you later.” I say ready to get out of her car, being on the facade of the building where I live.

“I love you, Rain. Don't ever forget that.” says Lake and I give her a chaste kiss.

“I love him too, Rain's boyfriend.” I mean, to then get out of his car, smiling.

"Miss Evaniff," someone says in a cold voice and I turn around with concern.

“Oh no.” I whisper as I see my father's butler in front of me.

“I need you to accompany me to a major place, Miss Evaniff.

“Since when has my father been here?” I ask worried 

“We've been looking for her since yesterday.” says the butler and I drink hard.

With concern, I get into the car that stops in front of me and I implore them not to notice that I am not the same anymore and that, if I take off my coat, he will know that I am not the innocent girl they remember. Worried, I get out of the car and enter the elevator, when I am in front of her room door, I hesitate.

“I better face him soon, he has already sent me to withdraw his papers from the university.” says the butler and immediately, I open the door to face him.

“You can't take me out of college, Father!” I say annoyed, entering a room where all my uncles and my brothers are.

“Oh, Rain dear, it's good that you honor us at this hour with your presence.” says my father, as all courage disappears.

“Father…

“Rain Evaniff, no, your name is Rain Tsvetkova, isn't it?

“I don't see anything wrong with me using my mother's maiden name.” I say and my mother gets up and greets me with kisses and then takes my hands.

“I'm very honored that you use my father's last name, honey.” says my mother and I sigh with relief because she's not going to scold me.

However, the relief lasts an abbreviated time because she gives me a strong blow on the arm that makes me fall to the ground by the force with which she hits me.

“Mother, don't hit our sister like that!” my brothers say, running to help me.

“I haven't asked the twins to get into this.” says my mother with annoyance.

“Mother…

“But, I'm not allowing you to use my father's last name for these shenanigans, Rain!” my mother screams and I kneel, knowing that I must be submissive or I will not be able to return to the university.

“In Russia, everyone is afraid of me or shows too much respect, because I am the one who will take the place as the head of the family. Just by saying my last name, everyone bows to me, without giving me the opportunity to be intimate with someone

“You'll be intimate with your husband.” my father says and I moan.

“Father, I'm talking about having friends and someone to talk to about girl stuff. Here, I have that, but, I have achieved it, because I don't use your last name, if not, my grandfather's. I didn't want to be feared for coming from a powerful family and much less, I wanted to have some favoritism for it.

>> They treat me well here because I am a good woman and an excellent student, and not because a heavy surname backs me up. Please, I will have to carry a heavy wreath soon, let at least, process in a pleasant atmosphere, which said wreath will weigh.

“You're a human, Rain. A human! It's as if you deny your roots and what you will be!” screams my father.

“I do not deny them, but, if I want to be free at least a little before being a prisoner of so many responsibilities. My brothers know how it feels and it's horrible.” I say and everyone looks down.

'I think with this, I'll be able to go back to college and still be with my amazing boyfriend.’ I tell myself mentally.

My parents look at each other and I continue with a speech that increases dramatically with my tears, which always move my uncles. Because if I'm to get away with this, I must convince everyone. 

“All the things I'm doing, it's so I can explore everything and know that I should improve and that I should eliminate from my life. I know what I should do and say, just... let me be a free girl before I join a marriage of convenience, I ask you.” I say pleading to my father and he sighs deeply.

“I need you to see your fiancé, daughter.” says my father and my chest hurts.

“There's no need to meet. The marriage has already been finalized; I can meet him on our wedding day.” I tell my father and he nods.

“If that's what you want, that's how it will be. But, I will only let you study here, if you live where I want and answer all my calls.” says my father and I immediately get up, jumping up to him.

"I have saved myself from an odyssey.' I tell myself mentally.

The tension in the room disappears and we all greet each other properly, and then have breakfast. Fortunately, no one notices anything strange about me and I smile having convinced them to stay. After that, I run home to get changed and leave for the university where after classes, I meet with my gorgeous boyfriend, who watches me sadly.

‘Let it not be bad news, please.' I ask mentally

“Is something wrong?”

“I got a call from Rome after I dropped you off at your apartment, I have to leave today.”

“What do you say?”

“My father has become ill and I must leave soon to see how I can help him.”

“Lake…”

“I'll be back. I'll just take a couple of weeks off, dear. While I get someone to take care of him and make sure everything is fine with him.”

“But…”

“I must go, Rain. But, I promise you that nothing will be different.”

‘Why do I feel like this is going to complicate everything? Why does this happen right when I gave myself to him? Is he leaving because he got what he wanted from me?' I wonder mentally worried.

“I get it.” I say, feeling that the mood has completely disappeared.

“Why don't we run away from now on?” Lake asks and I deny.

‘I've never skipped classes and now, that I might not come back...’

“Okay, let's go.” I mean determined.

“Where are we going?”

“What would you like to do?”

“Watch some action, it could be a movie or whatever you want.” I say and he nods, looking at me mischievously.

'Oh, he wants another kind of action.' I tell myself mentally.

“We will have action at my house, it's the closest we have now.” says Lake and I nod.

“But, first... we must go to a drugstore.

As soon as we pass near a drugstore, he stops and smiling, hands me a box inside a bag. 

“Lake! Why so many?!

“We can't take any chances because I doubt you want a baby soon. So, it's better to play it safe, because doing it only once or getting out of you is too…”

“I understand, you don't need to talk anymore.” I say blushing and he kisses me smiling.

“I love it when you're so shy.” says Lake resuming our route to his house.

As soon as we pass through the door of his house, the desire is evident and that is why Lake takes me from the beginning of my legs, to get up and place me on the kitchen island, where he kisses me intensely and undresses me quickly.

'We really will have a magnificent farewell and I'm not going to complain about it.' I tell myself mentally.
