~ Devastating Love ~ Foreword~

(21st February 2018, a winter's rain story)

Walking down the road that was covered with shriveled leaves; the restless lady placed her hands into her trench coat pockets. This autumn the temperature was low; she could feel the chilling breeze brushed through her bangs. As she walked into the park nearby her house, she took a seat at one of the bench; her head hung low with her ebony curls touching her arms. The memories of the night before, gradually flowing into her mind, haunting her with not even a tiny bit of mercy.

"Why do we need to sign a contract, you told her that you only wanted one night," her hands were half trembling while holding on the document.

He got up from his seat and sauntered towards her direction with a sarcastic smirk, "one night to save your father from bankruptcy?" he held on her chin bringing her head up to meet his dark and mysterious eyes, "do you not know how much money your family need or you are really that innocent to think that you worth a lot?"

"You know I can get his help, it's not necessary for me to listen to you," her eyes were challenging the man before her. His grip on her tightened at the mentioned of that man, he remained composed "You never fail to remind me how great of a slut you are. If that's what you wanted, you wouldn't have come here. Furthermore, do you really think he is able to help you with that huge amount of money involved? Your family had protected you too well in that glass castle."

Avoiding his eye contact, she stared still on the floor before murmuring carefully "I don't know how does it work in your circle, but how many nights do you need or would it increase my value if you are the first person to take my virginity?" she was holding back her tears as she didn't want to show him her weakest side, at least not at this moment.

The stern man's eyelid raised before looking into her eyes as he froze for a second when he heard what she said, still not receiving any eye contact from her. "What I'd offered you is the best," he said before releasing her chin. He walked back to his desk and took hold of his ipad, "I'm having a meeting, it would take an hour and I believe it would be sufficient for you to make a decision. I've said enough and I want an answer when I return." he said without looking at her before leaving the room.

A tear fell on her pale hand as she recalled the chain of events that had happened for the past 8 hours. Holding on the keycard of the apartment, she knew she has no room to escape but to fall deeply into the hole that filled with darkness.

She looked up to the clear sky and whispered "dear god, for the past 7 years, I did all I could to avoid him but how could you tie us together once again...in this cruelest way?"

Little did she know that he had always been by her side watching each and every move of hers. For her, she had used all her might to avoid having their paths crossed but for him, he had always wanted to be near her even if it meant to devastate their life and ravage their souls.

-

"If that's the only way that I could have her, I would lock her inside forever."

"Our love is devastating all of us but yet, I am selfishly holding on to it dearly."

"This feeling is sucks...to know that I don't stand a chance right from the start..."

"How could you be so cruel to me, if you don't even want to try why did you agree to it?"

"I wish I had done this earlier; perhaps it could have been better..."

"That's the most absurd thing I've ever heard in my life, you know nothing!!"

"You lose your chance...no matter what you do, it would be futile..."

"Your exterior looked like you have changed a lot, but inside there, it is still the same."
