THE FORCED WIFE

Broken pieces

Samara arrives home to find Hardin waiting for her, visibly angry and upset. He immediately starts scolding her for coming home late.

Hardin: (angry) Samara, where have you been? You're alate! You're such a characterless girl!

Samara: (angry and hurt) How dare you call me characterless, Hardin! You know that's not true!

Hardin: (defensively) Well, maybe if you didn't go out all the time, I wouldn't have to say it!

Samara: (frustrated) Oh, so it's okay for you to date your girlfriend while we're married, but I can't have a life of my own? We both didn't want this marriage, Hardin, because we're not happy!

Hardin: (defensive) It's not the same thing! We're married, and I have my reasons!

Samara: (firmly) And what about my reasons, Hardin? Don't I deserve to have my own life and be happy too? I'm tired of feeling trapped in a loveless marriage while you continue to date someone else!

Unable to bear the tension any longer, Samara storms off to her room, her anger and frustration bubbling inside her. She needs some time alone to process her emotions and figure out what she truly wants for her own happiness.

In her room, Samara takes a deep breath, trying to calm herself down. She knows that she deserves better than this, and she's determined to find a way to regain control of her life and find her own happiness, even if it means making difficult choices.

Samara received a call from William, who advised her to make Hardin fall for her if she wanted their relationship to work. Although Samara didn't want Hardin to fall for her, she decided to make an effort for the sake of his family.

The next morning she heard a knock at the door when she opened the door Samara saw Hardin with his girlfriend, her heart shattered into a million pieces. It was a painful reminder that Hardin's heart belonged to someone else. Despite the ache in her chest, Samara tried her best to hide her emotions and put on a brave face.

She had prepared Hardin's favorite food, hoping to surprise him and make the morning special. But seeing him with his girlfriend made her lose her appetite. The sight of them together, so comfortable and intimate, was like a knife through her heart. Samara fought back tears, not wanting to let her pain show.

In that moment, Samara felt a mix of emotions. She was hurt, angry, and disappointed all at once. She questioned whether all her efforts were in vain. But deep down, she knew that she couldn't force someone to feel a certain way. Love couldn't be manufactured or manipulated.

With a heavy heart, Samara quietly retreated upstairs, trying to hide her pain from the world. She didn't want to burden anyone with her emotions, so she decided to keep her feelings to herself. As she sat alone in her room, the silence echoed the emptiness she felt inside.

Hardin's constant scolding became too much for Samara to bear she reached out to William and William and Samara went to her house.

as Samara's parents listened to her plea, their anger intensified. Their faces flushed with a mix of disbelief and disappointment. "How dare you speak such words about your husband?" her father bellowed, his voice echoing through the house.

Her mother, tears welling up in her eyes, struggled to find the right words. "Samara, you made a commitment. Marriage is not something to be taken lightly. You must think about the consequences of your actions."

Samara's heart sank as she realized her parents' reaction was not what she had hoped for. She had anticipated their support, their understanding. Instead, she found herself facing their wrath. The weight of their disappointment pressed down on her, making it hard to breathe.

With a heavy heart, Samara turned to William, her eyes filled with tears. She knew she had lost the battle for her parents' approval. But she also knew that staying in a loveless, toxic marriage was not an option.

"William," she whispered, her voice barely audible. "I don't know what to do now."

William, his face etched with concern, gently wiped away her tears. "Samara, I know this is difficult, but you deserve to be happy. We'll figure this out together. You're not alone."

Taking a deep breath, Samara mustered her strength and faced her parents once again. "I understand your anger, but I cannot continue living in a relationship that only brings me pain. I want to break free from this toxic cycle and find happiness."

Her father's eyes narrowed, his voice tinged with bitterness. "If you choose to leave, Samara, you will no longer be welcome in this house. You will have to face the consequences of your decision."

Samara's heart shattered as her parents' words sank in. She had hoped for their support, but now she faced the harsh reality of being cast aside by her own family.
