Victoria POV
I always knew that people were cruel, all my life I have been treated like crap by countless people, just because I didn't have the same money as them, or because I was always a bit more shy than others, even now that I have money that hasn't changed, it has even gotten worse if I remember the incidents with Dominik's mother. However, I always believed that I surrounded myself with the right people, not only with my family but also with my small group of friends, whom I adored and still adore with all my heart.
"It's just that if you think about it carefully... If Victoria and her husband are really in love as the magazines say, it only has to do with the fact that Victoria was a virgin and is young, she has no other value as a person, do you remember the ridiculous thing she did in the play last year because she got nervous on stage?" Comments one of those cruel girls.
"Victoria must do very well in bed to have caught that man" Commented another on
Dominik POVWith a sigh, I park my car in front of Victoria's school, looking around curiously, does she really study here? It's quite different from the private school I used to attend, which looked more like a campus full of various buildings with medieval decorations and architecture, to this school building which looks like a simple apartment building, and a cheap apartment building at that. I guess it's because I haven't visited many public schools throughout my life, but I can't help but be curious to see this."Maybe... I should have insisted on switching Victoria to a private school earlier" I say in a whisper, somewhat regretful upon seeing the precarious study establishment Victoria was studying in, but it was too late for that, as Victoria would soon graduate from this place, which is a pity.Sighing, I open the driver's door of my car, and quietly walk down the driveway outside the school. Outside the establishment, there are still several students,
Dominik POVWith a sigh, I finish signing the hiring reports and send rejection letters to the applicants we were not going to hire for the company. It was Saturday, so the work was much simpler, just the rest of the homework that could not be done in the rest of the week, and that was due if or if not, so we went to extra time on the days off to finish it all.In my case, due to the incident at the school in Victoria yesterday, I could not finish reviewing the application letters for the applicants to the company, so I had to take Saturday morning to finish my work. But I didn't have too much to do, it was a somewhat simple job for me, since my employees had already reviewed the applications and had already chosen their favorites, I only had to review the reports they made on the applicants and sign the admission and rejection letters. Since it was a simple and easy job, I hoped to be able to finish everything before noon, so I could go home and stay with Victoria.
Victoria POVSighing, I lay on my bed with my eyes closed. Like every Saturday, while Dominik is at the office or at his private gym inside the apartment, I stay in my room studying. I'm going to graduate soon, which means I'll have to apply to get into a good university and get a scholarship, something that's quite difficult for me since it's quite competitive to achieve something like that.Having a good GPA in school is half the way, I also have to study to take the entrance exam to the university I'm applying to, which will probably be the hardest and most important exam of my whole life. I know I can repeat the exam, but if I take it next year or next semester, I will not be eligible for a scholarship, so I only have one chance, just one chance to pass that exam and get into a good college.This effort is necessary to fulfill my dreams.So even though it is a bit heavy, I am studying all the free time I have available, to prepare myself for that very
Dominik POVWith a sigh, I stopped my car in front of Victoria's parents' house. On the other side of the front door, I could see a light smoke in the air, as well as a rather pleasant smoky smell wafting up to my car, which meant only one thing: The barbecue for Victoria's grandmother had already begun.I divert my attention from what seemed to be happening in the backyard of the house to Victoria when I hear her sigh. She doesn't seem too happy that she came, looking at her house with some suspicion, she even seemed annoyed that she had to come here, something that makes me feel guilty. I know I asked her to come here but maybe I pushed her too hard, maybe I went too far with her asking for something like this, and it worries me since if this meeting goes wrong, I will be the one to blame for asking to come to this place."If you want we can stay in the car for a while longer before we go to the party" I propose to Victoria.She hesitates for a moment b
Victoria POVI knew perfectly well that this was going to happen, so that's why I refused to come here at first because I... I didn't want to see my mother.But still, I'm here now, there's no way I can leave, so I have to at least put on the best attitude I can until I get a chance to go back home with Dominik. And of course, I'm calm now, but when I get home, I'm going to kill Dominik, definitely, because he lied to me by telling me that we were only going to stay for a moment because watching him cook outside with my dad and committing to staying for lunch is not a moment, Dominik made us stay for a long time.I'm going to kill him for lying to me by coming here."So how's school going, Tory?" my mom asks me suddenly.Me standing in front of the open refrigerator, putting in some of the meat sauces Dominik had bought, trying to refrigerate them so they don't spoil, I reply to my mother, "How am I doing? You came to my school two days ago, I gues
Victoria POVWith a sigh, I lower my gaze, as I stand with my arms crossed in front of the refrigerator. Seriously, very seriously, what am I supposed to do now? I still feel upset, my mind and my heart are furious about what happened in my house so many days ago already, but I just... I... I don't know what else I should feel...I love my family, I really love them very much, not for nothing I practically risked my whole life and my future for them by marrying Dominik, I'm not kidding when I say I love them all very much. However I think it still hurts me a lot, what happened hurts, and I don't know if it's something I can forget... But it's something that maybe I can forgive.I know we are not perfect beings, as humans, we all definitely make mistakes, many mistakes, but that is not why we deserve to be judged and suffer as much as my younger brother is doing. Why now I understand that he didn't do this as an act of hate, he is just a kid, and without realizin
Victoria POVAnd just like that... The last school year of my life is ending, as I close this book on the last class I will have for the semester.Several weeks had passed since I met again, weeks that turned into months, and ended with the end of my last school year, in what is probably the best time of my life.My relationship with Dominik is practically perfect, with slight ups and downs because of the fights we sometimes have, but without ever getting to be anything too serious, and only ending in just that, normal little fights that all couples have. It's strange, but in all this time that we've been together as a romantic couple, Dominik and I have practically never fought, or at least we haven't had a fight so serious that I could fear and think that we would break up. Dominik and I ended up getting along better than expected, and now I don't hesitate to say that I love him more and more every day, while still being by his side.On the other hand,
Dominik POVSighing softly, I look at the envelope with Victoria's graduation invitations sitting on my desk. After arriving from the restaurant where we went to celebrate together for the completion of Victoria's classes, I decided to work a bit, since I had to go out with Victoria to celebrate the completion of her classes, I didn't finish all my corresponding work for today.So after arriving home, leaving Victoria to take a bath, I went to my private office, ready to work and do all the work I could not finish today in the afternoon. But something strange happened, for when I got to my office and stood in front of my desk ready to work, I couldn't do it. My mind kept wandering, as I looked at the envelope I had taken from Victoria in my car this afternoon, thinking about her graduation and... Prom.I know Victoria has all her reasons and right to not want to go to that prom, her time at school hasn't been very good, especially now after the news of our marri
