Fawn's P.O.V.

I'm being forced to go to Chicago with Michael's mom Sandra, since he didn't show up for her birthday.

Why I am being forced to go I do not know. I begged them not to make me.

I don't know why there so set on us getting married. Micheal wants nothing to do with me. I feel the same way about him.

He lead me on for so many years. My aunt told everyone in our neighborhood how we were going to get married. Now that the news is out I can't go out without being laughed out.

I can't put all the blame on Micheal though. I should have seen the signs that he wasn't interested. So I can admit, I was stupid and naive. No that I know, I'm over it and ready to move on.

We left the airport and caught a taxi to Micheal's house. It is okay I guess, modern family home.

"This will be your home soon dear." Michael's mom said

I put on the biggest fake smile I could master. This is some stupidity!

I don't want anything to do with Micheal. Everytime I tell them that they tell me 'You don't know what you want.'

What is that suppose to mean?! The only person who seemed to be listening to me is my uncle Kenny.

Sarah opened the door with the house key Micheal sent her.

" Go make yourself comfortable upstairs. " she told me

This is a plan for disaster

Hours Later

1:45 am

Micheal isn't home yet, I guess he is working long hours.

"Your husband will be here soon! Don't worry."

I personally don't care.

I continued to flip through the lastest edition of Ebony magazine.

I heard a car pull into the drive way. Soon Micheal came in stumbling into the house. He smelled like alcohol and....weed? I'm not sure though, I don't know what it smells like though.

He was drunk but sober enough to relive that there was an unwanted guest in his house.

"What the fuck are you doing here Fawn?! Can't you take a damn hint I don't want you!"

"Don't talk to her like that Micheal, and I invited her to come with me."

"Why?"

"She is your wife, and is going to stay with you."

This...this is madness

The Next Morning

I woke up, Micheal was standing in my room over my bed. I stretched and got up.

"Are you happy now?" Micheal asked me

"What are you talking about?" I asked him

"My mother left this morning, and took your passport with her. I can't send ya ass back go Georgia."

She left me!

I began to ramble

"Micheal, I didn't know she was gonna do this. I didn't even want to come here I swear-"

Micheal held his hand up, making me stop

"My mom asked that you stay here, because your getting bullied back home. She felt like you needed some time away from that. Why she sent you here I do not know. But I guess anything to help an old friend."

Bullied? Women in the neighbored laughing isn't me being bullied. I know bullying behavior first hand from my Aunt.

Micheal let out a deep breath

"You want to stay here your going to earn your keep."

"What do you want me to do?"

"Just help around the house, Hannah is messy keep this house clean. Do not do anything to mess up my relationship with my finance. "

"I won't."

"Also move all ya shit to the attic. I need to turn this room until a beauty studio for Hannah." 

When Micheal left my tears came out.

What did they think would happen? What did they thing this would solve? That me and Micheal would start to fall for each other again. Scratch that, did they think Micheal would start to love me back?

Why is no one listening to what I want. I really want to call my Uncle Kenny so he can buy me a Greyhound bus ticket. However, that man will raise hell so maybe its better for me to stay here.

I can still work since I have my MacBook with me. I took a semester off to focus on my business more, so my education isn't being affected. Just my mental health. 

Now I have to watch the man loved show love to another woman infornt of me

How much worse could things get?
