Even on the surface
Things aren't looking so swell,
You can see as I come unwraveled,
Exactly how far I've fell.

Strolling out of his black Mercedes Benz we entered the mansion, he was on his call god knows with whom, talking in some alien language beyond my understanding.

We parted our ways in opposite directions, he walked up to his study and I made my way inside the kitchen.

It's been three days since I started going to University, I have made a friend too, her name is Lucy and everyday Alexandr used to drop by and pick me up from University, I had refused him numerous times but he said he had some work there so he thought of giving me a ride.

We were having quite a good time, he usually tried to converse with me and a part of me wanted to do the same but I ended up only responding to him, something was stopping me, maybe the forcible marriage, I know I have to get over this and be used to this isolation but the thing is my heart is not ready to accept the circumstances in which he forced me.

August had left for LA to wrap up his college stuff and move here but I kinda miss him, when I first came here he was the only one with whom I felt comfortable, but truth be told every person living here is kind and good to me and now Alexandr too.

But I'm still afraid of him, what if he would again try to rape me?, what if he would take advantage of me?, what if I'm nothing but his slave?

The answers to my question are unanswered and seem lost but the thing I'm more terrified of is that his whereabouts concern me, perhaps he is making a secret place in my heart. I'm afraid to be heartbroken because, in the end, every person I loved left me.

I drank a glass full of cold water and placed the glass on the counter my gaze fell on the two cute small figures sitting in the dining space having their meal.

I made my way towards them with slow and steady steps, they were busy chit-chatting and enjoying their food.

There was a boy around Elsa's age sitting one chair away from her, I remembered her talking about one of his friends, perhaps he was the one.

"Who is this handsome boy," I asked sitting on the chair between them and Elsa gave me a secret look telling me about 'the boy I was talking' for which I gave her a playful nod.

I glanced back at the boy and saw him straightening his back, he forwarded his hands towards me and introduced himself with a gentlemanly smile" Hello beautiful, I'm Jeremy"

My lips curved upwards sensing his antics and forwarded my hand for a handshake and retorted "Hii handsome, I'm samyuktha"

I gave Elsa a playful smile and she hid her face in her palms out of shyness
