"Are you listening to yourself?" My dad retorts and that makes me nervous. I'm trying to explain myself to them but it's all in vain. They can't believe I'm an atheist and that I'm getting married, to a girl. I wish I could have just kept a secret. Now my parents think I'm bewitched or something. I feel stupid to have broken the news to them now.

I find myself grabbing Talia's hand and walking out of the house when my dad barks, "You are a disgrace to this family. I don't want to see you again." My mom can't control herself. She sobs uncontrollably making my heart break. I can't believe my decisions in life can hurt people like that, people who love and care about me. But that can't change the reality. I love Talia and I don't think I'll ever forgive God for what He made me go through. So now I should not care about what people say. Nobody can change me now.

We are silently watching a reality show with Talia while sipping Domaine Leroy. I just want to forget the day's drama. I reach for Talia's soft lips. I kiss her softly and she kisses me back roughly. I can feel that she wants me as bad as I want her. I get on top of her and caress her breast. I play with her nipples and she softly moans. I kiss her neck down to her chest then to her coochie. She moans as I suck her pussy. I then insert my middle finger inside her. She does the same to me. She did a clit job on me that made me cum. We were terribly hungry for each other. We then drifted to sleep.

I'm in the office busy signing some papers when I came across the daily newspaper. There's a story that shocked me. It was about Mr. Allan. Mr. Allan's the Beast himself. He was pronounced dead. Should I be happy now? No. I wanted him to pay for his crimes. But he just went unpunished. It's actually the saddest news ever. I don't bother to read the newspaper because I just conluded it's a fatal car accident that made him die.

We are on a lunch date with Talia at Charlie's restaurant. She takes chicken tikka biryani and I take my all time favorite spaghetti bolognese.
Talia's telling me about her childhood experience making me choke. I reach for a glass of water then I continue laughing. She's so funny. She's indeed a drama queen.

We head home after going to the skating grounds and movie theatre. We looked tired when we reached home. We took a shower together in the bathtub and had a wild sex.

Talia's phone rung but she didn't pick it. I insisted her to pick but she says it's not that important. It rung for the sixth time when I decided to pick it. It's an unknown number so I didn't say a word first. The caller's voice was hoarse," Hello Talia baby, I've missed you...Hello babe...are you there..." Then he hanged up. Questions ran through my mind. Is she cheating on me? Who's that man? Is this a prank or something? I need answers right away.

Talia's just seated on the bed crying. Now what's wrong with her? I want to ask her questions but now I have to deal with her condition. I try to ask her what's wrong but she sobs loudly that makes me freak out.
