Chapter 7
I was too naïve and young to realize what I had let myself into but as people say love can make you blind and you will do anything to be the person you love and that's what I was doing trying to make myself acceptable in between them by being who I was and not wanting to become a person they wanted me to become.
I guess every relationship has its ups and down when they begin their new journey and I was ready to face all the challenges that come my way as Marc's love was enough for me to survive anything but I was so naïve to think like that. And once I realized it shattered everything inside me and I was too young and inexperienced to know how to deal with it but I did try.
Those first months of my marriage had been heavenly Marc had been an exciting lover, sensitive and aware of my innocence and very protective of it. The only barrier to perfect happiness had been his father very cold and hostile. Antonio Garcia had made no secret

My eyes went wide with shock as I was not expecting him at all. And I was feeling a little uneasy because of his presence. “Hello Carmen," Blade said softly. I was not happy to see Blade at all. I was thinking it was Marc and I was about to give him a piece of my mind. I somehow felt dizzy and was about to fall realizing that I had not eaten anything since morning.“Steady Carmen!” Blade’s arms were on my shoulders and then somehow I was sitting on the couch in the living room as he handed me a large measure of brandy. “No, I can't drink that stuff Blade honestly. I don't need it I am perfectly OK, I really am.” I told him seriously. I wanted to ask him to leave but it would be rude. “You can't see the color of your face, you can do as you're told and drink this up like a good girl. You are very cold you need it. “ He said stubbornly. “Well, thanks for the compliment,” I said softly drinking the liquid and grasping as th

What do you do not know is it would give me great pleasure to shake the breath out of you lover.” Marc said furiously as he came and grabbed my hand. I found myself unable to speak in my own defense but then I stood my ground said, “ So what if you caught me right-handed, even you cheated on me I saw you lying on our bed with Bella, so now we're even.” “My God you are really a son of a bitch, aren’t you? Blade's words penetrated my senses and I became aware that Marc’s hand have left me and now his attention was back to Blade. And I knew that Balde was in for a beating. “Blade please just leave us to go now for my sake please.” I found that I was unable to raise my voice for both the men turned towards me. I gulped my saliva nervously. There was a sneer in Marc’s face as he said. “ Yes, I have finished with you for the moment be thankful that I am letting you go.” He turned away from Blade his eyes coming to

I opened the bedroom door only to come to an embarrassed halt at the site which met my eyes Marc was dressed only in his shorts and was in the process of pulling a clean shirt over his body. His muscled shoulders were too much even in my present distressed condition the site of his lean body sent shivers down my spine and almost unconsciously flash of colour rose on my face and my cheeks went red. I was immediately reminded of the fact that he was lying naked in the bed with Bella and it pained my heart to think about it dragging my eyes away from his disturbing presence I turned away in the other direction. “Stay I wish to speak to you.” His words were like a command. “I will wait for you in the living room.” I insisted but he started laughing all of a sudden. His laughter greatly annoyed me. “Come on Carmen is it not a little late for modesty. I'm sure the male body can hold no secrets from you, your have a new husband and a new lover all in the span of six months, this display

I was having sleepless nights thinking about my failed marriage and I tried to busy myself with my studies as there was nothing left from my broken marriage. I knew I couldn’t turn back the clock and make everything right as I don’t want to go back to the man whom I loved so wholeheartedly and in return, he slept with another woman in our marriage bed. I just didn't want to bring that scene back to my mind again. I just let it lie in my subconsciousness. And my life just moved on as if I had never gotten married and continued with my daily routine. It was a few days after Marc’s departure that I finally got the courage to call my parents.The phone started ringing but as soon as it was received I heard someone else's voice, it did not sound like my mother but before I could ask that person she said, “ Carmen its aunt Beth your neighbor your parents had an accident and they've been admitted in the hospital please come back ASAP. We are here and taking care of them but you need to hurry

Aunt Beth took complete charge of my life by feeding me every day and giving me the moral support I needed as I tried to plan for the future. But within a month of my parent's death I realized that I would have to come to terms with additional complications in life I could no longer avoid the obvious fact that my body was not functioning normally and could no longer be put down to shock or worry. I came to know that I was pregnant I was going to have Marc’s baby.It was on Sunday morning that I finally told Aunt Beth what I wanted to do and my firm decision about the future. If Marc comes to know that I was going to have his child he would take me back not because he loves me but to satisfy his family's wish to have an heir. He definitely wouldn't consider me fit to take care of his child. I was pretty scared but then I finally thought about it that he would even take the child away from me and let his mother take care of it . I was going mad as it was not good at all if

After visiting the solicitor that afternoon I was really shocked and I came back home and went straight to Aunt Beth’s house. I was too shocked to show any kind of reaction at the lawyer's office. It's unbelievable, it really is. I told them I had told the lawyer that I thought he had made a big mistake but he showed me the papers and said that he had already bought the house and had left a substantial sum of money. The lawyer also told me that he had won a prize for his publication at the university a few years ago and that he had saved the rest of his pension from work. Though I just don’t know how he did it. I sank heavily into the chair. My father had saved it for their retirement and he couldn't even enjoy its benefit I was happy as well as sad. “You don't think that Marc would have given the money to him.” Aunt Beth said hesitantly. "Your father is from a different school of thought he would never rely on someone else's money, let alone your husband's" “ I know aunt Beth and I

I tried to still the feeling of rising panic as I had to meet Marc and tried to pull myself together. I would be a nervous wreck before I reached Milan. My mind slip back to the other journey to Seychelles a year ago when I had traveled with Marc it was the only time I had really enjoyed a flight he made my fear seem quite ridiculous. I was suddenly aware that everyone was moving around and realize that the plane had landed without any incident I breathe a sigh of relief and rose hesitantly to join the other passengers as they moved towards the door. As I stepped out of the plane I was panicking. I give a mental shrug thinking about how I will face Marc in his condition right now. The line of passengers waiting to pass the barriers move slowly and I had only enough time to tidy my hair and pressed my face before I came out of the airport. I had been told by Mathias that someone would be waiting at the airport to meet me but when I scan the faces I breathe a sigh of relief as Mathi

She turned her head standing up eyes curious. “Hello.” I glanced at her briefly before turning my head towards the bed.My heart was thudding violently and I was perspiring everywhere.His head lay on the bed and was bandaged all over. The covers were raised on a cradle indicating some damage to the limbs he had and one of his arms was plastered.I was deliberately looking at the exterior details of his appearance because I was afraid to look at his eyes which were now open and visible between the bandages staring at me intently.Cathy's hand tucked my arm imploringly.
