SOPHIA“I was expecting Narin to be helping you down, but suddenly out of nowhere, Sir Ryan comes down, with you on his back, holding you tightly like he's scared you'd fall off,” Ariel said, in the most dramatic ass voice as we set up our tent.This was the fourth time she was saying it and to be honest, it made my heart race just thinking of the moment again but of course I couldn't smile and let them know that I liked it, or I wouldn't hear the end of it.“Take note that if it were somebody else, he wouldn't do all that. Sir Ryan is definitely in love with you, Sophia,” I turned around, pretending to adjust the mattress, so she wouldn't see the big ass smile that had formed on my face.I might be crazy. Smiling at the thoughts of Ryan Caddel, that might just be the perfect explanation for my situation, but who cares? Sometimes we get a little crazy.“Wow, you are not arguing this time around. So you admit he loves you. Did he tell you?“ Ariel said.'You have no idea how much I lov

42 Stop

SOPHIA One slip up from either of us and our lips would be touching. How did we get into this situation?“Would you listen to what I have to say now?“ I was being such a coward about it, I know, but could I really be blamed?“Would you give me the chance to tell you everything? I promise I won't leave one thing out.“I wish I could do that. I wish I could stop being scared, but whenever you feel this way, you cannot just help it.I heard footsteps and I quickly scrambled off him before anyone found us in such a position.I gave him one last glance before turning around to leave.“Sophie, wait!“ he called after me but of course I didn't. He grabbed my arm, turning me to face him.“Why-” he paused. “Why don't you want to listen to me? Do you hate me that much?“Hate? I wish I could. I sincerely wish I could.“I'm not ready to deal with the pain that comes with revisiting the past. I can't handle it,”He sighed, pulling me closer. “But if we don't talk about it now, it's still there,

43 What if i do

SOPHIA Even though I was half expecting it, his words made me disappointed. I guess he didn't even try at all. Maybe Zara was right. “I love you, Sophie,” he added. Love my foot.I let go of the fork.“This was your plan all along right?“ I asked softly. Apart from being disappointed, I was mad that he gave me little hope. I had been hoping that since the both of us didn't want the marriage to happen, we could find a way out of it, but having to find out now that it's one against five, was making me really angry.“Sophie-”“Don't call me Sophie!“ I snapped out of anger.Only one person was allowed to call me that and I'd love it.“Because he calls you that right?““How do you-” I paused and shook my head.“It doesn't even matter,” I rolled my eyes.I grabbed my bag and got on my feet. “You've known since the first day. I do not intend on getting married to you and that still stays,”“Goodnight,” I added and turned to leave, walking out.Adam's House…“Is my mother in?“ I asked the

44 Still love

SOPHIA Immediately I said those words, and the realization that I meant what I said came rushing down on me.I staggered back, my legs hitting the frame of the bed. I squeezed my fists.I did still love Ryan Caddel. Somehow I managed to not hate him despite repeatedly telling myself that I did.How had I let this happen? “So what now?“ My mother's voice brought me out of my mini-daze. I looked up at her.Her face was set in anger.“You are going to crawl back to him begging for him to take you back?“ she asked in derision. I tightened my fist, holding myself from speaking.“Open your eyes! Sophia! Ryan is getting married. He has moved on and you are still stuck in that fucking past,”Tears streamed down my face. “I'm not stuck in the past Mom,” I muttered, my voice breaking just as my heart did.She stepped forward. “You are,”“Do you want to be tagged as a homewrecker? Do you want to be like that bitch who slept with the assshole you dated? Wouldn't that make you and her the same?

45 Just like you wanted

SOPHIAEight Years AgoI was lying on my bed, my duvet covered my legs and my back against the head of the bed. I had my face masks on my face, waiting for the ten-minute timer to be over so I could peel it off.I looked down at my phone. I had the text messages app opened and Ryan was the most recent that I talked to.He had still not replied to my last text.Should I text again, or should I call?I sighed, leaning my head on the wall.Should I have told him when I knew I was applying to a fashion school outside of the country? But I was scared that this might happen.“How could you not tell me?““Do you really not trust me at all?!“I recalled his words earlier today. Was he mad I didn't tell him or was it because I was leaving for a different country?Ryan wasn't someone who would stop me from doing what I wanted to do, in fact he was the one person who supported me. Even when I got into business school just to give my parents what they wanted, he knew that was not what I wanted e

46 What if

SOPHIABack to the present…“Oh my gosh!“ She exclaimed as she sat upright.“That's insane. I never knew this was what happened,”I sighed. It's surprising he never told her what happened either.“Why didn't you tell me this then? I'm your best friend, if you can't confide in anyone, that's why I'm there,”I sighed and picked up my glass, slowly twirling the cup, watching the liquid dance around in it, before I dropped the glass.“You are his sister before you are my best friend. I didn't want anything to be awkward,”She sighed and leaned in closer, reaching to hold my hand on the table.“It still doesn't matter,”She sighed and pulled back her hands, picking up her glass. “Ugh, I feel so awful that you couldn't talk to me when you most needed someone with you,”I forced a smile. “That's in the past and you cannot be blamed for that,”She nodded as she set the glass down. “You are right,”“We have to deal with it now. You still love Ryan,”I exhaled, leaning my back on the couch, I r

SOPHIA “Here, because you never cook for yourself,” Zara said to me as she handed me the bag where she packed the dishes we didn't eat, for me.“Don't I deserve one too?“ Ryan asked.She rolled her eyes. “You can cook for yourself. I really don't care about you,”He rolled his eyes at her and started to head to the door.It was refreshing to see them banter like 16-year-olds. In another life, I'd have my sibling and we'd have cute little banters like this.Zara patted my back softly. “Good luck,” I smiled. “Thank you for tonight, Zara,”She gave me a mock salute and I giggled, turning around, I followed after Ryan.I took in a deep breath as the doors to the elevator closed with the two of us in it.Tonight might be that night. I need to get myself mentally and emotionally prepared. Surprisingly, throughout the elevator ride to the parking space, we didn't speak to each other. He held out the door of his car for me and I got in, muttering a thank you to him.He got in too and I cer

48 Terrified

SOPHIAThe next day...I rushed out of my room and I pulled my hair into a ponytail. The atmosphere of today just felt right, and unlike other days, I woke up with a smile.Or maybe it was because Ryan and I finally addressed our issues. Anyway, I was happy and that was what mattered.After tightly tying up my hair, I grabbed the flower vase and headed into the kitchen to change the water, then I returned the tulips to it.I smiled as I ran my hands through the petals. The tulips were gradually filling up the vase and in no time, it would be a complete bouquet. Wasn't this just the sweetest thing to do? And he was consistent about it too.The doorbell chimed, startling me for a moment.Was that Ryan? I quickly smoothed out my shirt and headed for the door.My smile widened when I pulled open the door and saw Ryan standing on the other side.“Hey, good morning,” he greeted with a wide smile.I nodded. “Good morning,”Why did I suddenly feel a bit shy? “Here,” he stretched out the tu

50 Return

SOPHIALater that day…“Are you sure you don't want us to go with you?“ Rose asked as I started to pack up for the day.Surprisingly my team had not said anything about the news, they all greeted and talked to me like on normal days, and unlike other staff who kept staring at me, they were chill. And I liked that they weren't too inquisitive. It was either that they didn't believe what was said about me or they probably just didn't care.Maybe Rose was right, there might be people who don't believe the bad things that they say about me on the internet.I passed her a small grateful smile. “I'm fine really,”“Besides I'm leaving with sir Ryan,”She nodded in relief. “That's good then,”She patted my shoulder. “Wishing you both the best of luck,” I smiled. We might need it. I shut down the laptop and started to pack my bags. Once I was done, I picked up my phone and switched it on. After I talked to Zara earlier this morning about what happened, I turned off my phone because I didn't
