1: strange man

When Aria's eyes shot open, it occurred to her that she did not sleep at her own house, because she did have her sleeping eye mask on. She would remember the details later, but first, she had to yawn; she felt weak. Her head ached her like a war was happening inside of it, and pain seared through her body, mostly between her legs. Aria's eyes scanned through her view. Two milk chairs were placed by the sides of a black shiny table, the curtains were drawn apart, revealing a wide view of the glass window. The room looked different; it wasn't the room she and Lily, her best friend, had booked yesterday. With a sense of urgency, she attempted to roll over, but her body stilled like a rock when a firm mascular hand gripped her waist. Aria gasped, her eyes bulged with terror, when she noticed that he wasn't Ivan, her boyfriend of three years. She was in bed with a stranger whose name she didn't even know. Her heart raced faster and she felt like screaming even though she knew it was

2: Debts

When is all these going to end? "Mr Donovan, take pity on us. We will pay up our rent soon." Her sister, Anna, was on her knees, rubbing her palms together in a pleady gesture. She knelt in front of the house, poking her head to get a view of the landlord inside the house. Aria stood next to her, careful not to draw her attention. She immersed herself in deep thoughts. What was she going to do? She was tired of the whole situation. Now that she had just finished college, she had started thinking about how to go about paying her student loans but she couldn't even pay her house rent. The money she had been saving to repay her student loan was what she used to pay her mother's last hospital bills. Since then, any money she had tried to gather up in order to replace it was used to settle another bill or the other. "Oh you're back." Anna stated, drawing Aria from her thoughts. Just then, Mr Donovan emerged from the house with this thug, carrying their refrigerator. The hefty thug marc

3: heartbreak

Aria's heart thumped faster as she stood in front of Mr Mark's office. She tucked a stray strand of her hair behind her ears as she inhaled and exhaled. For some reason, she was unsettled. She sensed foul play within his offer, but she was already at his door, considered it too late to turn back. Additionally, she needed every money she could get. Pushing her thoughts aside, she knocked softly. "Come in," he answered. She stepped in and walked towards him. "Good evening," she greeted. "You showed up quite early." He noted with a smile. He took off his glasses and leaned into his seat, observing her. She felt uncomfortable under his intense gaze. Aria wondered whether she was supposed to respond to his previous statement, then she spoke. "Yeah, you sounded urgent." "That's correct. You see, I knew you were the perfect person for this job and I could always count on you." Perfect person for a night delivery? Isn't any other person able to do that efficiently? She thought to he

4: I'm married

He flung his phone on the mahogany desk, leaned into this high backed chair and groaned. When he had asked her for his number amidst drinks, she boldly took his phone, punched numbers into it and saved it with her name and then called the line. When her phone vibrated, she chuckled and said, "I'll save your number later." That was how he got her name and her number after minutes of talking and drinking over the loud music. Robert wasn't expecting Aria to call that soon and from the look of things, he was right. He knew the call wasn't intentional from the way she said another name and how she was quick to say 'wrong number' when she heard his voice. He was worried about Aria, she sounded like she was on the verge of tears. After she hung up on him, he had been unable to focus on the stark of documents that crowded his desk. He had stayed late at the office today, he was filling up for the previous day where he had achieved little to nothing because he spent the whole day thinking a

5: the contract

While Aria was dressing up for the job interview, Anna barged into the room and hugged her. Aria was taken back, her brows creased with confusion."What's the problem?" Aria asked her sister."You've replaced our fridge and television. Isn't that enough reason for me to be happy?"Aria thought she hadn't heard hee propely. "hm? replace what?""Our fridge and television!" Anna squealed. "The delivery man brought it this morning, he said you, Aria Spencer, ordered it.""But I didn't."Anna was finally convinced that her sister was unaware of the purchase. She folded her arms below her chest and they both stare at each other for while. "Anna I'm running late for my interview, I guess we'll have to talk about this later."-When Aria walked into the office, the chilly air greeted her. She took deep breaths and threaded towards the reception desk. She tucked a stray strand of her hair behind her desk and smoothen non existent rough edges of her pencil skirt. Since birth, she had not been

6: maybe regrets

Lily placed her palm on her jaw staring into the milk coloured curtain in front of her, lost in thoughts. Her phone beeped and she anxiously reached for it, but her chest deflected when she saw the content of the message. It wasn't what she wanted to see. It was a text message from her mum asking her if she was going to come downstairs for breakfast. Although she had heard her mum's soft voice calling out to her earlier on, but she chose to remain silent. She woke up with a heavy weight on her heart. She wasn't in the mood to talk to anyone. She thought about Aria, and how she had sabotaged her relationship with her, over Ivan that had grown cold and distant towards her without an explanation. How does the dynamics of a relationship change overnight? She knew whenever they chatted, he would disappear for hours, and then he'd return with a silly excuse. But she did not think that soon he'd start taking days before responding to her messages. It made her heart ache. And whenever she'

7: disappointed

Aria could already envision her financial problems coming to an end.It was a refreshing feeling, a breath of fresh air. For a long time now, she had been in a state of panick, constantly thinking of different means to solve one problem or the other. As much as she could feel the wave of uncertainty blowing past her due to the contract she had signed with Robert, she chose to bask in the new feeling of lightness. Tons of congratulatory messages flooded her phone When she had posted about her new job on her status. It filled her heart with joy. For once, people were not sympathizing with her nor texting her to offer her favours out of pity. She took a deep breath, muttering a short prayer of thanks. She picked up her phone, about to text her sister. Her phone buzzed with a new messge, distracting her from her course of action. Her eyes darted upwards to check the sender of the mesage, it was Ivan. He hadn't texted since she found out he had been cheating on her. Her heart pounded as

8: a new beginning

It was her first day of work. The moment she got to the door, she pinched herself just to confirm that she wasn't dreaming. It felt good, excitement bubbled within her. She smiled liked a child that had been handed her favourite candy as she checked the time on her wristwatch. The last time she had been here was for her interview and she had arrived late. Attempting to correct that mistake, she had said she would try as much as possible to be punctual now that she had been given the time. It was 7:50 am, five minutes before her stipulated time of resumption. Now that was a good start to her.She pushed the door open, and as expected, she saw the nice receptionist behind her desk, head bent over, scribbling on a note set before her. Her braids were packed in neat bun, edges properly laid, floral chiffon top perfectly ironed. Aria could perceive her perfume from a few distance away; it was soft, feminine and flowery. She walked up to her, feeling obliged to appreciate for the act of k

9: Bring her home

"I don't understand you." Robert said, almost rolling his eyes but he stopped halfway, realizing Ethan, his best friend, couldn't see him. "All I'm saying that I'm just interested in her." Robert sighed.Robert stood against his kitchen marble counter, awaiting his bread heating up in his toaster when he saw Ethan's incoming call. It's been five minutes now, and their conversation mostly revolved around Aria. Yeah, he needed to tell his friend about her.Ethan chuckled. "You sure you're just Interested in? you sure this isn't just a fleeting interest?""If I wanted something casual with her, I'd have let her know.""Anyways I trust you on this one. I've known you to be an upfront person." Ethan concurred, then stayed silent for a while. He just couldn't believe that his friend had found someone other Becky interesting and he didn't desire a relationship with the person yet. He was aware of his one-night stand with this mystery girl and the contract they had signed but he didn't think

About ten minutes past seven, she arrived at the hospital. She didn't plan on staying long so she didn't worry about getting late to work. She was only here to pay her mother's bills. As long as she stayed in the hospital longer, her bills increased which made Aria constantly worried about paying the bills before but now that she had a well-paying job, the fear had reduced. She couldn't stop marvelling at the fact that she had gotten a job and the worry had become a thing of the past. She was indeed grateful that things were changing for the good.Aria walked over to the hospital's accountant, who sat at the side, close to the receptionist. "Hi, I want to make payment."The accountant regarded her with a friendly look and proceeded to flip through a hard-cover note in front of her. "For who?" She asked glancing up at Aria."My mother, Eleanor Spencer.""You're aware of her bills right?" "Yes.""kindly hold on, I need to go through the records." She scanned the book for a minute and t
