The Unwanted Marriage Chapter 55
Mecael"She says she cannot remember his face." Greg nodded from where he was seated.Aria had fallen asleep. We had a very long struggle about it but she was slipping again and I could not allow it. "Say something Greg. Communicate."He shrugged. "What am I supposed to say?""I don't know. You are a therapist for Christ's sake.""But I'm not her therapist Mecael.""But you're my friend!" I felt like I was whining.His lips turned upwards. He cupped his ears and turned them to me. "Say that again. I didn't quite hear you.""I'll get you for this. You are my friend,help me out.""Fine. Don't start crying at me right now."I open my mouth to speak. He gives me the 'go ahead and say it. Let's see how it goes.' Look.I glared at her m but keep my mouth shut."Wise choice." He commented."Just get to it!" I snapped. "Please." I added it as an afterthought."Dissociative amnesia." He stated as if that was enough for me to get everything."And?""And what? You wanted to know only that.""Gr

Aria"What am I supposed to wear?" I whined as soon as Lionne's face popped up on the screen."Well hello there miss throw tantrums at si in the morning." I stopped pacing up and down and looked at him. My finger pointed at his face. "You look… different.""Is it my hair? I dyed it black." His fingers raked through his hair slowly."Your hair is always black silly." I throw myself on the bed and place the laptop on a pillow. "Tell me,are you okay?"He sighs. "I am, except for the fact that I'm used to Kevin being around and directing every area of my life…""Oh poor you. But you are getting the hang of it aren't you?""I might say that." He licks his lips. "I miss master. We always talk but…""You want him with you?"He nods. "He has a tight schedule now but he promised to visit soon."I supported my head on my hand. "Do you want to come back?""I really do but…""Lionne?""I want to show him that I can do something with my life. I don't want him to feel burdened by me.""Have you ta

AriaLionne insisted on me having a cupcake moment and who was I to disagree with the sweet boy. We picked up a black satin cupcake dress and black strappy heels.The graduation did not begin till nine. Or was it eight. Either way both times were too far from the current time,five thirty. I turned before finally giving up on sleep. I tossed my blanket away and jumped out of bed. I out on my playlist to start the day. After negating almost every song lionne mentioned,I ended up adding all of them to my playlist.I spread the bed as I danced to the first song on the list. My bath took almost an hour as I added every essential oils I got my hands on. I threw in rose petal. I kit the candles as if I was not going to get out soon. I didn't. I had a glass of water because who said you must always have wine.By the time I was done it was already six fifety. I had to get dressed. Lionne called. I picked up and placed the phone leaning against the mirror."Wow. You have already showered.""I

AriaMy eyes darted to Alex."What does she mean,Alex?" Mecael walks to me and takes the jar. He hands it to Mesta. "Alex…?""Aria." Mecael holds my shoulder. "This is not the time or place for this." He seemed calm but his body was tense. The energy radiating from him was heavy."Matter of fact," Mesta moves closer to him. "It is the time. I mean,we are all here. Let's talk.""No!" Mecael growled grabbing my arm. He pulled me by his side. I frown as my gaze shift from Mecael to Mesta. "We are not talking about anything out here.""Fine. Let's go inside. My ride can carry is all so that no one runs away." He finishes his statement while looking at Alex."I had a speech planned for this day and I have not said anything yet,I would not dare to run." He replied with a smile. His eyes remained cold even though his lips curved upwards."Let's get going before the heat cools down." Mesta led the way. Alex followed with both his hands in the pockets. Mecael tucked me by his side wrapping a

Mecael"Can we talk?" Aria was curled up in bed pretending to read a book. She was trying to ignore me. "Yes?" She put the book away and sat upright. "About my behavior that other day." She nods."It was yesterday." "Yes. Yesterday. I got over myself and acted poorly with you. I hurt you and I'm sorry." She took my hands in hers."It was more than that darling,what was it?""I…I don't know. I was furious that Alex showed up with your favorite flowers. I'm your husband and I don't even know that." His hands gently found my cheek. She rubbed circles with her thumb."So my husband was jealous.""Yes…" I admitted.She gave me a surprised look but smiled. "They are no longer my favorite flowers. They never were.""Are you lying to make me feel better?""No. My mother loved roses so I got attached to them when she left. ""Want to search for her?" Her hands drop from my cheek. I pick her hand and return it to it's former position."I love your warmth.""Mh. I don't know. I feel like I s

Mecael"You could have told me!" I gritted through clenched teeth."Why? So you could run away?""I don't run away from things dad." I countered."Then go back to the base. You have been out here for long enough Arden!"My body stiffened when he used my second name. "Why? Why now?""Because you are needed over there.""Not because you think I'm not doing much for the organization?""And that. You need to get back in shape.""No!" "It's not like you have any other choice.""I have a wife!" I exclaimed.Talking to my father was ever pointless. He'd stick to his point and refuse to see anything else."Then get rid of her!" His statement was harsh. I clenched my fists and unclenched them. A part of me contemplated on pulling out a gun. We both knew how that always ended so I did not. Still the desire to kill him ran through my blood.My eyes bore into his. Neither of us wanting to break the contact first."You are the one who pushed me to marry her!" I barked. My throat hurt from the w

Aria"I don't know Lionne." He was suggesting that I invite my father. He was a pro at causing a ruckus and I was so not ready for that."He is our father. He will be happy for you.""Why don't we focus on the other parts then we shall think about that later.""The guest list." I groan and hit my face with the notepad I was writing on."You have no friends?" "None whatsoever.""You just used whatsoever in a sentence that is not an essay."I flip my hair. "Yeah. That's just how smart I am." I compose myself and focus on him. "But you'll come,right?""I won't be there during the ceremony but I'll be there afterwards." I point at him. "Don't miss.""Now that you have no friends and apparently no family,who are you going to put in the guest list?""I'll invite Alex. Oh and Liz.""Wow girl. Thought you said you are not a fun of ruckus. Seems like you are desiring it.""I…" I had no excuse to give. I wanted them there. Liz had opened up and told me the truth about most things that were h

Aria"I am so fucking nervous." I paced up and down."It's four in the morning and I'm fucking sleepy.""Wait." I jump forward. "Did you and Greg talk? Are you guys cool now? I hope I did not mess things up between you two. Did he…""Hey. Hey. Hey. Breathe in…out…" I follow his directions for three times. "Good. Now tell me why we are talking about my master and I when it's your day?" His voice rose at the end."What if he backs down? Or he does not show up? Mecael is unpredictable so he…""He loves you and he can never do that." Lionne spoke slowly. He yawns."I'm so sorry for waking you up at this hour. It's just that I'm so nervous and I did not know what to do so…"He covers his mouth while yawning. "No…no…it's okay." He says mid his yawn."Aww. I'm so happy and so nervous and I don't know what to do.""How about you get some shut eye for the next two and a half hours? I'll sing you to sleep.""Okay." I lay on the bed and cover myself. Lionne's voice came across the room. It was

AriaMecael held me until I stopped crying sniveling. Still,I held onto him because I did not want him to go away.I cried because at the end of it all everything had worked out. Not all of it was perfect but it was in place.Like last month the business made a loss but it did not collapse. It stayed and this month I'm certain it will all be better.Just like our lives,bits by bit,it was all falling into place.For the last three months, everything had happened so fast and I couldn't help myself from worrying that it will all fall apart.We had bought a larger apartment where we had room for the kids to run around. Thick walls for mecael and I and a larger kitchen and office for Phoebe.Alex had finally admitted to his feelings. Though he was thrown into a turmoil when Liz proposed out of nowhere,he got after it soon enough and said yes. They had a church wedding which obviously came as a surprise to all of us.None of the boys have visited Heloriet ever since he was taken away. We rec

Aria"Mom." I yelled as I made my way into the station.Mecael met me halfway. "Babe." I felt his gaze travel past me. "They have gone to get Greg from the airport." He nodded in understanding."Lorei…she."I step past him and charged towards my mother who was screaming about Heloriet being mad.I grabbed her biceps and forced her to stand still facing me. "What do you think you're doing,mother!"Her hands held onto my arms and she shook me frantically. "Aria…Aria..tell them,tell them how he tortured me. How he ran that…that business and forced the drugs down me. Tell them everything."My eyes burned with tears and I could not understand the reason behind them.Maybe it was the fury of watching her act like this. Or the extent of truth her words held.Perhaps it was none of those but the fact that ay the back of my mind I wanted to see her drop dead.It was the feeling of me having to betray the woman who carried me for none months and also took part in my upbringing.But why should

Aria"How is he?" I asked pacing in the hall. At the same time Mecael asked about the ones who were in the hospital"I don't know. The doctors haven't come out yet." "He's okay,I guess."I stop moving. "You guess?""He keeps on repeating that he did not push them. It's day three,Aria,your mom is not awake and so is the doctor."I sigh and sit. "Can I be honest with you? I feel nothing about this situation. In real sense I feel like they both deserve it. Except for the doctor,he doesn't."He hums from the other side. "I get you babe.""Is Alex with you?""He's supposed to be there by now,also Greg and Lionne are on their way. They are almost landing if I'm not wrong."The door opens. "I'll call you later.""Bye babe. Be safe.""Doctor.""Aria? She is awake.""The man?""His chances of survival are pretty low. But we'll keep you updated.""Then how is she? Can I go in and see her?"He nodded and followed me inside."That's the only thing she's been saying. 'Ill do it. Don't kill me.' S

Aria"James,Aurora stop running around,you'll fall." I called after them as I picked up the toys they had left all over."Kiiiids." They did not stop. I sigh and place the box of toys down.The front door opens and Phoebe walks on with lots of bag."I'm not against your spending but please limit it.""Hey babe." She pokes her head around. "Aurora,James.""Auntie!" That was Aurora. She came running so fast that I feared she would slip and fall."I told you to not run." I say breaking James speed."Na-na." "Come to me baby." She picks him from me.Looking around. "Where's your husband?"I playfully hit her arm. "He's not my husband. But he's gone to meet with some people,work related."She laughs and guides the kids to the kitchen."Nothing for me?""You have your own money. Spend it before you die."I go to reply but my phone vibrates from the coffee table.She stops moving." Oh you have friends now?""Shut it,Phoebe."A new number. "Hello.""Did I ever tell you I majored in performi

HelorietMy heart thudded painfully against my chest. Sweat droplets trickled down my face,behind my neck all the way down to my back.I swallowed hard,an action that was painful as well. The temperature in the room seemed to be cold but at the same time I was so hot that I was literally burning up.My knees were on the floor and I remained there,not wanting to tempt Lorei because I was too aware of what she was capabilities.She let out a loud sigh and removed her gloves. She licked up a pair of scissors that was lying on top of the drawer.Snipping it towards me,she said, "Do you want to know what I'm going to do with this?"No. No I did not.Her words scared me but what crepped me out even more was what she was going to do. Stabbing him to death? That would be painful. But he might survive if she happens to stab the less delicate parts,his thigh,for example.I shivered and pushed the thought further away as possible.If I think positive then everything else will be positive.

Lorei"Hello babe." I greet while sipping my wine."What?" He grumbled from the other side."I'm just checking on you.""I'm not yet dead so I assume you are not done with me."I gasp faking my surprise. "Who says I want to see you six feet under. I want you alive,so alive so that you won't be able to take any more of living.""I've already seen what you have succedes at doing,if that is what you want to confirm."A chuckle escapes my mouth. "I know you've seen it. I mean,I went out of my way to ensure they aired it,I did all that for you.""Geez,thanks.""You're welcome." I place the glass down and get to my feet. I swing slowly to where the other man was seated,tied up on a chair."Are you asleep,Heloriet?""What? No,I am tired.""Don't care." I tap on the man,waking him up. "I have someone who I am sure you'd love to hear from.""Unfortunately,I have no one.""Really? Think again, Heloriet. Think carefully." I speak slowly allowing him to soak in every word and get the weight of it

MecaelShe had said no to us moving in together. Well,it was not a direct no. She asked me to give her time.I agreed to that and that is why we are here seated on a date.James and Aurora are with their aunt who is also their godmother,Phoebe. Yes,she want it all."Why do you keep looking at me like that?"I smile. "I missed you and I'm happy that we are here like this…together.""I'm glad.""So what do you do nowadays that you gave up on the,you know.""I went into real estate.""Um,wow…I,I'm surprised.""I know. Greg was the one who helped me as he has a social life. Him moving also worked for my best.""I see." She drunk her wine. "How is Lionne, haven't talked to him for a while.""The boy is flourishing. He even went into modeling and–"She chocked on her food. "Wait. Wait wait wait. You mean Lionne,the Lionne that I know?""Everyone gave that reaction.""But it's good for him.""Yeah…" she was now playing with her food. "You're full." I noted."Mh.""Let's go to your place?"O

AriaAin't no way.After years of not seeing each other we meet casually at a park. What a coincidence.The beat my heart was currently playing was faster than any beat I've ever heard in all the music I have come across."I quit drinking." He announces after a long stretch of eyes fixated on each other."Good…I…I'm proud of you."He gave me a beaming smile with the corner of his eyes forming wrinkles. "Yeah." He chuckled. "Thank you."I cleared my throat. "You were with James. Thank you for looking out for him." "He got hurt. I'm sorry about that."I look at James. "Happens to the best of us.""I love his eyes." Of course he loves his eyes. The pairs are exactly the same. James took most of his features,like all of them. The eyes,face,hair,how his lips curl up in a smile.He held the girls hand. "This is Aurora."I smiled as I repeated the name.The bubbly child stepped forward and outstretched her tiny arm to me.I took it."Aurora. I'm a princess."Mesta was pregnant,that much I

HelorietI called him. I gathered all the courage I've packed and called him.I glance at the clock. Turning away I realize I had not registered the time,so I checked again.Only an hour remaining. One hour and he'll be here.After watching the news for more times that usual,I headed to my bedroom. The rest of the time was spent with me in bed feeling pathetic and regretting all my life choices.A knock came and the knob turned."I'm okay now,you can leave." I say under the blankets.I heard his low chuckle as he came closer. The weight shifted on the left side. A soft hand landed on my arm."I saw it.""It's bad but I have dealt with it. You can go.""I need you to look at me.""No."Silence.I sigh and uncover my face. He uses his finger to turn my head into his direction."I'm not crying." I say avoiding his eyes. "Is that's what you are looking for.""How have you dealt with it?"Good question.I had no answer.I sat upright. "Wanna have sex?" I lean in,my hand resting on his th
