MARRIAGE
I woke up early the next morning with heavy feeling. I prepared myself a bath to relax my aching rigid muscles then showered. Since I aimed to get to their famous Hundred Islands, I better wear an appropriate outfit for the beach. I put a pair of conservative cut two piece swimsuits then donned it with ripped short jeans and black mesh top.
After I finished my morning routine, Nana came knocking on my door. We went down to the restaurant to get some breakfast.
I was quietly taking everything in the buffet. I was so curious about their food. I picked food that I was familiar with, and when I was about to walk back to our table, I heard girls whispering about something. I caught words about red, modern something and slut. I watched them with curiosity and when we locked gazes, their eyes widened and suddenly looked guilty. I saw them scrambled out of my sight.
That was so weird.
When I was walking towards our table, I saw people staring at me. Particularly at my body.
Was there some sauce smudge on my top? I checked my body to be sure but there was none.
I shrugged my shoulders then sat up straight and slow. Like how I do it at every parties I've been to. I tasted the food on my plate and ate it happily.
I finished everything on my plate and got up to get some more when some girls walked up to me and bumped my hand that was holding my plate. The sound of the plate smashing got the people's attention.
I staggered back against our table to avoid the debris and knocked everything on it.
Scott came to my rescue and lifted me up. I saw one of my toe bleeding.
I bit my lip and looked at the girls. They were smirking at me evilly and turned their backs on me.
I couldn't understand why were they so mean. I didn't do anything..
My tears fell from my eyes and hid my face onto Scott's chest.
He carried me back to my room and laid me gently on the bed. And left. His shoulders were rigid and posture straight.
I didn't know where Nana is but I assumed she was okay.
After five minutes Nana came rushing into my room with first aid kit. She hugged me first then applied some cream on my toe and finished it with a band aid.
"Don't worry my dear Iona, Scott will handle everything. They'll be sorry they did that to you." She comforted me.
"Nana, I wanna go back home.."
"I'll send the chopper here. Don't worry now.." I nodded then closed my eyes.
"Welcome back Lady Iona." They bowed down when I passed them. I hurriedly walked to the room and dived on my bed.
I heard that Papa and Mama went abroad to do business so I was alone in this big castle. So big but empty.
My heart ached when I remembered Bryce. I didn't even get to see him before I flew back here. I so badly wanted to see him for the last time but I just couldn't handle the situation back there. Again my decisions were impulsive and childish.
"Welcome back my dear Iona." I snapped my head and found my mother leaning against my doorframe looking so bored. She directed her cold eyes on me and sneered.
"Aren't you great? You got my parents and James' wrapped in your little fingers."
I sat up and looked at her questioningly.
