Love The Way You Lie

chapter 10

Every time I see you I fall in love again.

Recap:- " We accept the love we think we deserve. - Samantha Baker"

"Samantha baker? Is this my mother's diary?"

I started to glide through the pages and found a number of quotes written by my mother.

The quotes seemed quite strange to me because all the quotes were based on love and my mom hated the word "love".

I skipped a few pages and found my mother used to write about the significant events that occurred in her life.

19th March 1977

I have completed my college and now I want to pursue my passion, I want to be a writer. I won a competition for content writing whereby I was invited to attend a summit for budding writers.

The hall where we sat was huge, it was just like the Oscars. The summit consisted of 2000 writers from around the world. As we entered the hall, the link of the content we brought to present was stored in our temporary id with the help of a barcode and for the security of our database biometrics were used as a shield. For each ID number, they had appropriate seat. My ID number was 1217 so I sat on the seat and met a guy named Liam.

He was kinda cute so I started to converse with him. He was quite frank and I thoroughly enjoyed it. The summit ended with Liam winning the first price. I had become a fan of Liam so I asked him for his autograph, he took out the marker from his pocket and signed on the back of my white t-shirt along with his phone number.

23rd April 1977

After numerous amount of phone calls and tons of messages, finally, Liam was mine. We had our first date in a 5-star banquet, it was a masquerade theme party. I held his hand as we entered the banquet, the ambiance was extraordinary. Every table consisted of two bottles of champagne along with the glasses.

Now, it was the time for ballroom dance, so I and Liam started to dance beside our table. Suddenly, His phone rang and he went outside the banquet in the garden area, I sat on the chair and waited for him.

It had been quite a long time, so I went to the garden area to find him. I saw him quarrel with a girl who was also a part of this party. I hid behind a pillar and started to listen to the conversation between them and found that he cheated on me.

25th April 1977

Quarrels and fights started to embrace between us but somehow he managed to convince me that he didn't cheat. He invited me for a coffee at his place, as I was an emotional fool I went to his place to untangle the strings of our relationship.

We cleared out all our problem and had a happy time with each other but it didn't last for long, soon there was knock on the door and the same girl who fought in the garden stood with folded hands. She came inside the house, slapped Liam hard, shouted, "Are you with that bitch again?" and stormed outside. I was disgusted, tears dripped from my eyes and asked him, "who is she?"

He clenched his jaw, ran towards me in rage and caught hold of my throat. He had a sinister smile on his face and whispered in my ears, "She is my fiance and you are my side chick." He tied me to a chair, unbuckled his belt and started to torture me. Bruises and scratches were all over my body. He pulled my hair, bit my neck with immense brutality and forcefully got laid with me.

I was stunned, I threw the diary away from me and started to cry. I wasn't in the state called sane, I needed someone who could help me go through this phase.

I ran towards my room, picked up my phone and called Michael. "Hello" I didn't utter a word and all I did was the cry.

"What happened, miss?"

"Help" I replied and disconnected the call.

I threw my phone on the bed and continued to cry, I couldn't imagine how much pain my mum has gone through. A sense of curiosity started to grow as I didn't read the diary completely.

I again went to my mom's room and picked up the diary.

30th July 1977

After that incident, I was completely shattered. A lot of events occurred over the course of 2 months, my parents arranged my marriage with a random guy and I tested positive in my pregnancy test.

I was 2 months pregnant when I became married. My husband used to work in the navy, so he used to sail for 3 months on the ship. After the 9 months of pregnancy, we were blessed by a daughter and her presence was angelic. She helped me forget all the pain that I had suffered until now.

After 2 years we were blessed by a son and we had a complete family. My life has taken a positive turn and everything started to work in my favor. But life is all about challenges, such a challenge knocked at my doorstep. Liam came back to my life and asked for forgiveness, I asked him to get out and leave me alone But instead, he tried to again rape me.

But this time I took a dagger and pierced it through his heart. This glimpse was seen by my husband and he filed for a divorce. The custody for the kids was won by me because they were too young. My husband didn't utter a word to the police and set me free.

Micheal entered the house through the back window and asked me, "what happened?"

I was about to tell him all the events that occurred in 24 hrs, but his phone rang and it was jack.

"Hey Michael, Is piggy with you? She isn't picking up her phone."

"Yes, she is with me, what's the matter?"

"Mom had liver failure and she is in the ICU, please come here quick."

Michael and I ran towards the car and we reached the hospital in no time. We searched for jack, asked him about the condition of mom and gasped.

The news that was given by Jack was not good. Mom had a severe liver pain which resulted in liver cancer because she sneaked some alcohol inside her room by manipulating my brother.

The operation occurred for about 4 hours and I was tensed about the situation.

I wanted a lot of answers to my question, the question like "Am I a bastard?"," Is jack my stepbrother?"

Soon the doctor approached us and uncovered his gloves in front of us, we asked him about the update of her condition he replied to us, "SHE IS DEAD."
