I went to the door once the sun was set and realized...Atem locked me inside...he locked me here? But why?
I began beating on the door no one came where was everyone I became worried I looked outside and didn't see a soul. There was something wrong.

I tried everything to open the door. Hours passed and I finally began to cry. I was so...confused..and hurt...why? That's all that was going on in my head I finally heard the door unlock and rushed to the door.

A soft hello echoed in

"Mana?!" I shouted "What's going on where is everyone? Atem? He locked me in here!"

Mana shook her head.

"Yes..I know..its okay Evelyn be calm..."

I felt annoyed I felt out of the loop of something big

"Where's Atem? I demand to speak to him. Something is going on here..."

Mana shook her head

"I cant let you see him...not right now just relax, everything is fine..I came here because Atem said you guys were going to be married"

I sighed "yes..we are.."

I bit my nails...I hadnt done that since I was a child. I'm noy buying it.
Mana came closer to me and began to try talking to me about the future wedding and I bolted for the door. Something was wrong. Isis warned me
I dodged manas attempt to retain me
I ran as fast as I could to Atems chambers.

Its amazing in a single moment everything you had come to love.

All the moments you enjoyed

Dissolved in a moment.

A women...
On top of Atem.

My mind couldn't process it.

"Evelyn! What are you doing?"

His voice muffled, slow motion

That womens smile...
That women's piercing emerald eyes

I walked out into the hall I felt numb I felt weak...I collapsed near a column Atem ran to me,

"Evelyn. Please...let me...explain...I told you...no matter what you we-"

I was stunned my heart felt like it died inside of me. The smell of wine lingered in the air making my stomach turn worse

"Evelyn...I had to...marry her for Egypt"

Marry. Her?

My eyes flashed to Atem now

"How long...how long have you known this?"

Atem frowned "3 months...I...I.love you I couldn't...I...want..you.."

I shook my head
"3 months....you could of...you should of told me...you should of talked to me. If you love me like you say you do...you would of never done this...were you planning on telling me you were married to another women?"

Atem looked down. Unable to face me.

"I see"

I slowly stood up....

"Good bye Atem..."

I began to run.
Its all I wanted to do
All of this had been a mistake

I heard him try to come after me but stumbled on his own two legs I could hear him calling out for me begging me to return

it was too late I began running as fast as I could. Toward the sands away from the city tears in my eyes blurring my vision..

He was so cruel.

My tears stung I finally fell into the desert sand. And began crying. How...how could he do this to me.
I squeezed my eyes shut

I wanted to be home..
And to forget all of this

Rain hit the glass window to my bedroom. I sprung up. I looked down to see the puzzle in my hand I smashed it into the floor.

My tears were still falling I picked up pieces of the puzzle and placed in the gold box. I would never touch that again.

I glanced at my hand. The ring Atem gave me was still there I took it off and threw it into my jewelry box. As well as the necklace. I knew that would be bought for a fine price.

I went down stairs and checked my phone...I was only gone...a day?
I was somewhat relieved as emmett send a message and hour ago asking how I was.

I replyed fine. I wasn't...
I turned on the television and grabbed some choclate from my cuboard. It was like my first high school bf all over again. Though me and Atem had only been together a few months...it felt like years..

I couldnt stop crying. I cried all morning through to the afternoon. I took a bath, watch tv, and finally took a small nap. I kept racing over in my head...what he was thinking...why he would do this. A week passed I couldnt stop thinking asking myself
For Egypt? But why not tell me?
He wanted me to be his wife? But didnt want to talk to me about having another wife? I scoffed. I better stick to shitty blind dates and emmett. They'd feel about the same.

Emmett sent another text about dinner tommrow

I said yes. I needed...real company.

The following night I got dressed up. I wore all black and black stilettos.
My hair was down curled nicly I wore light make up. I wanted to be wanted. Even though jt was Emmett anything to help me feel again.

I met emmet at one of the nicer places to eat in the South part of the city.

"Evelyn.."
"Emmett"

Emmett opened the door for me we sat down for dinner and kick shit. I spent most my time drinking and getting sarcastic with him. Emmett was a great guy. Just not a guy for me I did enjoy messing with him though. When he dropped me off home he tried to kiss me I laughed and dodged it
"Sorry Emmett maybe next time" I blew him a kiss and staggered up to My house. I threw off my heels and fell into the couch. Drunk and numb.

Atem...

I bit my lip tears coming up again. I threw my face into my hands. And began to sob....

I just wanted to forget this
