All Chapters of Scarred Love: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

PROLOGUE; —Saturday morning.The sun was already high but the heat was not even enough to warm someone. The streets and roofs of the houses were covered in thick white snow. It was plain white outside and it was cold. Most of the townsfolk are inside their houses drinking hot tea and staying lazy in front of the fireplace the whole day.Everyone was idle except for a small house that is almost inside the thick forest. There was an out-of-place car that was parked outside. The expensive car was left unguarded but thankfully, no one was crazy enough to steal something on board the daylight. The house was only a two-storied building and the interior is almost bare. There was a rocking chair on the patio in case someone wants to sit down and read newspapers but no one is out at the moment. They were busy preparing inside.In the small living room, someone in a three-piece suit sat on a worn-out sofa. Despite the odd appearance of the thing that the man was sitting on, he didn’t show dis

CHAPTER TWO;One can't help but freeze in front of the thing that they fear the most. —The wind was already chilling and freezing, Agnes thought that she will not experience a temperature colder than that night until he came with a gun.The silver gun was pointed at her from the distance. The polished muzzle of the deadly cold weapon glittered against the light of the moon as if mocking Agnes who once again saw herself trapped like a mouse.Leon was standing still but his eyes are sharp and active, ready to shoot anything that moves.Agnes didn't dare. She didn't move and stood still while her pale face was illuminated by the moon's mocking light. She was disheveled, far from the gracious and precious image that she carried for almost 19 years. Her red hair was like a bird's nest with blades of green grasses and dirt on top of it. She has a small wound on her pale cheeks, corner of her right eye, and lips and they were bleeding. The red blood slid down slowly on her face, painting

CHAPTER FOUR; If Only The Laughter Wasn't There, The Words You Whispered Can Make Me a Fool. — Morning came. The sun started illuminating the east of the whole mountain. The light glisten when it touched the water droplets on the leaves of the plants and trees. The morning in a damp forest gave off a mystical feeling. This time in the morning, the maids of a certain mansion on top of that mountain are busy preparing breakfast and cleaning the kitchen and living room. Some washed the clothes and hung them one by one in the backyard. Although they are busy and working fastly, they didn't make any unnecessary noise nor they did chatter. They moved carefully and hurriedly as if trying to escape from a monster that is lurking nearby. Meanwhile, Agnes was standing in front of the door of her room. She can't hear the bustling noises of those people downstairs but she knew they all began working. Agnes looked at the clock on her bedside table. It was nearing 8 in the morning. It is

CHAPTER SIX;Behind Closed Doors,Under the Table Transactions. A Snake—A Traitor.Can be a Friend, or a Lover.You Can Never Let Your Guard Down.—"According to Mr. Brown, this lady here," the head maid pointed at Dalia. Dalia waved her hand to the maids and other personnel that was lining in front of her. She was smiling widely that even her eyes were also smiling. "This will be our new maid. Introduce yourself."Dalia stepped out, carrying herself like a fair lady. The other maid's face contorted for some reason. "Hello everyone, my name is Dalia. From now on, I will be a part of Brown's household. Please take care of me."The maids smiled reluctantly and greeted her. Although the response is not as optimistic as Dalia thought, she didn't care. She was so happy that she ceased to care about trivial things.Agnes watched from the stairs, she was peeking down to the living room, she was looking intently at Dalia, her close friend from their village.Since their marriage, which was t

CHAPTER EIGHT; A Marked Contrast To What is Said To What is Meant; Irony--- — Dalia looked down on Agnes who has her face slapped by her. The part of her cheek that was slapped was reddening and her eyes were also tearing up. She was looking at her since her build was shorter and smaller than her. Dalia can't help but gloat in her mind and she can't resist the small smirk that was aching to come out. Her eyes were looking sharply at Agnes—mocking and satisfaction were dancing inside her eyes. 'That's right,' she said inside her mind. 'Look up at me. I'm taller than you—and may be higher in terms of status in this house too!' Agnes never noticed her envy and jealousy towards her even though they were always together before. Almost everyone in their school noticed it but she didn't, not even in the slightest. In conclusion: She's stupid. Awfully stupid. Despite her hate towards her, she decided to befriend her. Because, really, she gets attention and other benefits too. It's
