Pepper and Aunt come to see me the next day.
Pepper says the university is fun and she's enjoying the course she's currently taking. It's even more exciting when she tells me that she already got a job as a brand ambassador for the Plus Line UK brand. I am happy with her drive towards life. I was once afraid she would end up being a vagabond that does nothing with their life except to eat and sleep.
Pepper shows me some pics of her in the clothes of the line she's now working for. I must admit, Pepper is very beautiful and she deserves to be a model indeed. Aunt says she's proud of what her daughter is doing with her life and I'm also proud of Pepper very much.
But Aunt doesn't look too happy.

I wake up in a huge white bed, with puffy pillows. I must have had a good night sleep on this cosy warm bed.I stretch and yawn as I sit up.I don't know why I have a headache. My mind quickly flashes back to the previous night.Kyle drugged me and I passed out...That's the last thing I remember.Oh my God! Where am I? Did he kidnap me? No! I look around the room and I see pictures of Kyle as a child all around. It's a wonderfully decorated room with expensive furniture. I see a wedding gown standing near the closed windows. The wedding gown that I fitted in and chose a few months ago. How the hell is it here? And most of all, what is it
I lift my hand, ready to stab him.Kyle is quick to catch my hand and snatch the knife. He scowls at me, not believing I would dare hurt him.'`You want to kill me?" He asks calmly and that scares me.Kyle flips and smacks me with his hand. He pushes me to the bed and starts hitting me with all his might. He beats me up ceaselessly without any mercy all this time I am crying hysterically. He's too huge and he's hurting me."I love you! I love you! I love you!" Kyle cries as he knocks me down.I wait and plead for him to stop beating me but he doesn't. I fall dizzy with all the beating I have just received.
I have stayed here for one whole week now.It has been the seven longest seven days in the history of my life. I will go crazy, I swear. I did as Eleanor told me. I don't talk rudely to Kyle anymore. I treat him how he wants and we even make out sometimes. The mere thought of my tongue disgusts me. The minute he leaves my room, I always head to the washrooms and puke.I have attempted escaping three times now and that has not worked out well.But I have a plan.I smile in awe of my brilliant mind as I stare at my wedding gown. I didn't know it would come in handy at such a time.I can't wait for the sun to rise and they find me gone.
It's the day of our wedding.Kyle came to see me last night, all excited about us getting married on his birthday. I just pray everything goes wrong.That stupid help, Ellie, comes to help me dress up in my gown after they force me to have a shower and shampoo my hair. I'm surprised that Ellie is good with make-up. She pats my face with some foundation and draws my eyebrows perfectly. My hair is tied into a tied bun, all this time my hand shackled up on top of the bed.Kyle comes into the room in his perfect black Louis Vuitton suit and his hair slicked back. He looks so perfect and handsome as he turns to smile at me.I can't believe that this is the man that murdered his mother and her whole family, hi
Without saying another word, he stands up from the bed and puts on his Calvin Klein boxers and white vest. He sets my hand free by removing the shackle from my wrist. Ugh! Finally, my hand has been set free!I know what you are thinking. I should take advantage of this opportunity and smack him and run away but no. I can't try anything stupid that might make him turn into a beast.Kyle pecks me on the cheek and looks at me, his eyes boring into mine. He lifts my chin and smiles."I'll stop hurting you, I promise."I know he's just bluffing. I'm careful not to say a single word. I am afraid it might irritate him."Kiss me," he whispers, staring a
Yes.That's how I like it.My coffee, I mean. Black and extremely hot.Hannah, my house help, is one of the few people who knows that. I am reporting to work in the afternoon, so I just woke up late this morning and found my breakfast already prepared by Hannah.It's my habit to read a newspaper or magazine in the morning.EX-FOOTBALLER, TALKS ABOUT ABOUT MENTAL HEALTH AND ADVISES PARENTS TO PROVIDE LOVE AND CARE TO THEIR KIDS TO AVOID IT AFFECTING THEM MENTALLY.Kyle was sentenced to life imprisonment one year ago. Since then, he has been able to educate people on mental health and admitted to going for cou

CJ'S POVTearing Terra?What does that Even mean?Tearing Terra?To tear her apart is like tearing me apart. When she's hurt, I hurt. When her heart breaks, mine does too. Even when I tried so hard to torture her and cause her pain, at the end of the day, I would feel so bad about myself and completely drained. I would lie asleep at night, thinking about her and that would tear me apart.Tearing her apart tore me apart too.In short, I was not able to tear her apart like I had previously planned.I tried so hard to tear her apart but I was not able to.I wanted to stay away from her. See her suffer from a distance but I couldn't do that as well. I couldn't fucking stay away from her because I wanted to kiss her. Caress her. Tell her I had missed her. And it was so hard for me because I saw her on a daily... Saw that beautiful hair being flipped at meetings... That perfect sweet mouth curving up a happy smile at lunch... T
Three months laterCJ is gone.Everyday I wake up, I'm reminded of that.I don't wake up with him beside me anymore.It's honestly sad, gloomy and boring without him here.It's cold mornings like this that I wish he was here, lying next to me. Holding me so tight that I felt his warmth. I wouldn't be feeling this cold because we'd make some intense hot love that would leave us burning. That would force us to head to the shower to kill things off... In each other's arms.I miss him...Everyday, I miss him.I drag myself out of bed and head to the kitchen. I sit down to my cup of hot coffee, looking out the kitchen window. Morning mist, thick as smoke.It's going to be a long boring day.No plans whatsoever.It's
"Don't tell me to calm down!"I yell at CJ.We just got back to town and everyone is acting okay and cool. Because it's not their only sister that has been kidnapped by the most dangerous serial killer I know.Their only sister that's pregnant.While I was having the time of my life, my sister was in suffering in the hands of the devil himself. That breaks my heart into pieces."Terra," Dee who just came in some few minutes ago says. "It has not been confirmed that it's Roman who kidnapped her..."I laugh sarcastically and bitterly. "Oh wow! That makes a lot of sense! I think she got lost on her way to the mall, don't you think?"Ren intrudes. "Terra, I think you have to relax-""Relax!" I scream. "Relax? My sister is in the hands of that evil monster and you're telling me to relax! How can I fucking relax! Who knows what the hell he's doing to her! Lord!"I fal

"Shit Eli! You scared us!"CJ and I are in a towel as we stare at both Eli and Zara from upstairs as they are downstairs."Biiiiiiiiiiiitch!" Zara shrieks. "So this' whatchu' been upto after some jail time! Lookatchu' being naughty!"I roll my eyes at her, concealing just how excited I am that she and Eli are here.It's going to be so much fun.The perfect way to escape from all the negativity and toxicity. I was drowning with everything that was going on. A part of me died slowly day by day.But this... This will be the perfect therapy.An old beach house with the man I love and two close friends.The perfect combo!Eli tosses himself on the couch as CJ resumes to the master bedroom that we slept in."Zara? Can you please come up?"I borrow a dress since I didn't carry any clothes. A few minutes later, I step out of my room with my hand in C
I knew this moment would come.But I swear to heavens, I was not prepared for it. I was not prepared to explain myself. I don't know if the answers I got are the right answers or if they are answers at all.I open my mouth to say something then I quickly shut up, careful with every word I'll say."Honestly, Cedric... I can blame it on a lot of things but they all come down to me. To my selfishness. It was me..."I take a deep breathe and continue."When I eloped to Russia, I did therapy because I couldn't live with what I had done to you. I had nightmares. I drank myself to sleep. Bars were my favorite spots. But therapy kind of helped me deal with what I had done in a positive manner and learn to live with myself."I swallow hard, nostalgic about those pretty dark days of my life." And through therapy, I learnt some things I didn't know about myself. I had severe anxiety. It's something I had lived with, yet didn't know
The sun is low on the sky when CJ opens the cab door for me.I step out into a stone circular driveway in front of a mansion and I look around blindly In awe.The view of the mansion in front of us is breathtaking. The house sits on a cliff above the ocean and the low sun sets the waves on fire.CJ leads me around the house, his bag on one hand as he holds my hand with the other. We walk along the edge of a large blue pool and towards a furnished pool house.At the doorstep, is a large porcelain pot. CJ bends it over and takes a key under.CJ opens the door and I step inside to an old classic living room with artistic old paintings on the cream walls and one-armed sofas with hundreds of pillows. The table in the middle is wooden and seems like an expensive old furniture that has seen the best of years.Underneath the sofas, lays a Persian rug and just in front of the decor, sits a huge fireplace.&nbs
Present day..."He killed his friend?"I nod my head sadly. "Then he forced me to clean up for him and drag the body to the basement."Honestly, that was it for me.I didn't care if he threatened me anymore.I had to leave him. And leave him right away.If he could kill Oscar that quick within a snap of a finger just because of some argument, I wonder what he'd do to me?There's no way I'd sit and wait to see what he'd do to me... I had to leave!"So you stole his packaged drugs and sold them?" asks CJ."Yes, to a guy he despiced. Osborne. Some rich tycoon and I sold it at a very cheap price because I needed to fly away..."CJ looks at me in worry. "It must have been hard for you...""Yes... Especially because I had to stay in h
