Withered Carnations

"The Innocence of a girl will always be protected by her mother",

This was hard to believe for a girl like Diana Ventura- since alongside her innocence, she was also forced to bury her mother. With the loss of the woman she looked up the most , her misfortune continues as she was chained up like a dog to her step-father's ambitions and principles. All her life he made decisions for her, making sure not even a strand of hair falls out of place, and evidently choosing her husband.

Diana never wanted to have a husband like Caspian Soleanna, the center of the crowd's attention, the golden boy, the so-called money maker. Why? because she believe that a man as powerful as Caspian, is as scary as her step-father. After two years of contentment in their marriage, Caspian speaks up of having a child with her.

"How could I possibly raise a child? When I am such a stranger to the love of a mother?"

With both the fear of being controlled by a man and bitter memories of her childhood bombarded her thoughts. Her paths remain clear to her as she is led to only two choices. 'Continue to play the obedient girl,

or run'

Which will she choose?
