[Lily]
I sat on my bed exhausted after reaching home late at night thinking over and over about if my parents will ever have second thoughts about marrying me to that cruel man. I had given up on asking them to give it a thought. I had no say in this marriage which involve me Ironically.
I look at my unpacked bag sitting in front of me and look at my phone.
I shook my head almost slapping myself, tears leak down my cheeks. I would be back in that town next month as soon as my father is done with his work.
I go downstairs, maybe to check if they were awake. Maybe to see if I could pull it off. Running away, I wanted to see if they were asleep. I gulp as I see my mother clearing the plates and grab a pack of chocolates we bought on the way home.
"Why aren't you in bed yet Lily?" I looked down in fear,
"I am just exhausted and wanted a little snack," I said causing her to roll her eyes.
"Well get to bed" I nodded tu
[Alex]Kaden pushed him aside careful shaking his chest off any broken glass pieces and asking if Rose was okay."Thanks" He said and I nodded."You brough them here?" Rose asked."Yes, but I had no choice. I gave him a heads up throught another phone incase Aiden took mine" Rose leaned back on the wall as we call the cops ad wait for them. I brough Lily in the house since I couldn't leave her in the car but we had to keep her in the bathroom.She couldn't be seen by the police. I only had to keep her hidden till I left with her to a town where I had a job to do.I ended up explaining why she was with m
[Rose] I bite my nails as I watch the snow falling down from the windows. The constant chatter of the neighbors disturbing me, while I sit up and make myself some hot chocolate I contemplate whether I could make it to the club or not, I bite my lip sitting over my couch and watching the TV. When a call was heard from the counter of my kitchen and I groan. How could I leave my phone over there? I quickly ran over to it and picked up the call from the house mom of the club."Hey Rose, can you make it today? we need some girls in an hour. We have a room request" I sigh. "Ya, I'll be there in a few minutes" I replied hanging up and making my way to my closet. I picked something to dress up and grabbed my work bag calling an uber. I feared I wouldn't get a ride back home, But I could never refuse some money. Finishing up the now lukewarm hot chocolate that I made after putting on some makeup I made my way towards the wi
[Rose] My eyes opened at seven, my legs sore because of the heels. I was hungry and Tired. But something in me clicked. I didn't want to work for this office anymore. I didn't feel like working for something I did not apply for. I was supposed to be an editor. I was supposed to be working on projects that I trained for. But I was instead given the position of an assistant, I had to bring coffee, and get copies. Then prepare for meetings I was not involved in. I was never involved. I only sat at a chair noting things. For my boss. My hands brushed over my wet hair and I grabbed my hairdryer, It was already 7:45 until I was done getting ready. I did not expect to see David sitting over the kitchen counter drinking my orange juice. "Hey, Rose. Leaving for work?" I smiled nodding. "Uh, ya, I will in a while" He nodded. His eyes following me as I made myself a smoothie pouring it in my goto bottle.

[Rose] I stared at my face in the mirror and sigh putting on my lipstick for the second time. My time coming up for another dance. I could feel my feet getting sore minute by minute as I made my way towards the dance floor. My teeth unintentionally bit my lower lip softly as I suddenly saw Kaden standing near the stage. The club was filled with people because it was a weekend. I had t leave early today because I was going apartment hunting tomorrow morning. I didn't care about the size. I didn't care if it was not convenient. I just wished to leave the apartment I lived in. Because I wasn't getting any good vibes from David. I always feel his stare on me. I have witnessed him breaking into my room twice and running through my drawers now.
[Rose] I walk out the back door searching for a uber even though Carried lectured me about denying Kaden and being rude to him. She was right, It was rude of me to deny him. I just didn't see him helping me, and I thought it was a hassle for him. Afterall. All the other girls never get a ride from him or Coby all the time. They go home on their own. I have to learn to do so too. I stood there was a minute before my eyes noticed someone at my preferable vision. He was right there, near his car. About to get and I look at him. My lips curl inward as I desperately teach myself to apologize for my rude behavior. . And I see a visibly sigh walking over towards me. "Get in, I'll drop you" I bite her lip and he sp
[Kaden] I was in hurry to her home, I didn't believe myself. I had worried about her. I never worried about anyone. I heard something falling as she got out, she didn't look back but I watched her back as she made her way inside. I pulled my car out the road and just five seconds later heard something rolling over the passenger seat's legroom. I glanced over and saw a bottle rolling back and forth. I sigh turning the car around. I could surely find which apartment she lived in. I was walking up the stairs as I once saw her through the large windows facing out of the building. My mind getting irritated as I remember I could've just given it to her tomorrow. "What the fuck am I doing?" I mutter to myself scratching my eyebrow when I suddenly heard a distinct bang over a door above me. I walked up to two people trying to break in a door. My question was dissolved when we all heard a distinct 'help' sound.
[Rose] "Thank you so much" I thanked the guys beside us and they nodded, just a minute later the cops came in taking David away before taking my and others' statement. I declined the mention of medical need and said I just needed rest. I didn't need people around me. I didn't need medical attention. I wanted space. I still was processing the situation. At a point, it was just us left at my apartment, At two in the morning, "Thank you so much, Kaden. I-I" he got closer. Just enough close to not burst my bubble. I pause and lick my lips.Pulling my hands around me "Don't, It was a coincidence" He said and I frown, "But how did you-" He answered before I asked. "You dropped your bottle in my car, I was coming up when I heard your voice" Oh..
