[001] another year closer to death

[001] another year closer to death

                              Celia is all dressed up like a perfect little doll - her hair is straightened, she's dressed in off-white silk, and her makeup is absolutely perfect. She looks like the picturesque wife alongside Roman. And upon first glance, it seemed as though Celia and Roman were absolutely fine. Who could possibly believe that the couple who had basically been arranged to be together with no love in sight, would ever have any problems in their marriage?

                              On the inside, Celia was fuming of course. Roman still hadn't budged, determined to keep Celia within his grasp. And that meant that Celia was forced to be here and attend Logan's eightieth birthday party, pretending as though she was happy for the old man who basically set her up to be in this situation in the first place. And worst of all, she had to pretend that she gave a shit about her piece of shit husband.

                              But the only thing that was keeping Celia from going completely insane was the fact that she had a plan in motion. One that would give her exactly what she wanted when it was finally complete. Because there was no way she planned on failing.

                              "You look so gorgeous," Marcia greets her, momentarily distracting Celia from all of her planning.

                              "Not nearly as gorgeous as you. The blue is wonderful on you," Celia gushes with a smile.
