"And do you, Mariah Evens, take Robert Jones to be your lawfully wedded husband?"
She felt a heavy weight on her shoulders. Maybe it was the humongous veil, or to be more realistic, the overwhelming decision being presented before her.
"I..I," Everyone's eyes were beading into her with anticipation. She took a deep breath. "I don't."
L'appel Du Vide is a French phrase which refers to the urge to jump from high places; the call of the void.

I'm Still Here (Ally/You)
Your heart was empty, it has been for 15 years and you kept coming back to that same old place you were told to stay. You knew that nobody will come but that's the only thing you can hold on to... their promise, a promise that they will come back and get you there. So you waited for someone who will never come. On the same day, 15 years later, a 'supposedly' typical day of waiting for the loved ones in your past, your path crossed with a beautiful Latina sitting on a bench not that far away from where you are. That changed the course of your life.Complete

"With what I want to do to you, I want your full consent" she said, her voice steady yet inviting. As she spoke, she picked up a glass and filled it with water, the liquid glistening in the light. She approached me with the glass in hand, her gaze unwavering as she offered it to me, a silent promise of respect and understanding in her gesture. Are you sure of your surroundings?" I nodded, though the truth was that my heart was racing in my chest like a wild animal. "Use your words, Tee Rak," she urged, and I could feel the heat rising to my cheeks. It's just a pet name, I told myself, but there was something about the way she looked at me that made my pulse quicken even more. "Yes," I managed to stammer, my mind racing. "Do you know what we are about to do?" she continued, her gaze piercing through me as if searching for answers. "Yeah... Yeap... I mean yes," I replied, my words tumbling out in a clumsy rush. What was happening to me? I am a lawyer, confident and articulate, accustomed to navigating complex conversations and arguments. Yet here I was, stumbling over my own words, feeling a blush creep across my face, jeez what am I a schoolgirl whose crush proposed. "In the next five minutes I'm gonna be intense so if you don't think you can handle you're free to leave, but if you stay you still have the right to stop at any time" I should probably leave, every fiber in my being is screaming at me to run for it, but my last brain cell is curious of what this beautiful woman wants to do with me, no scratch that do to me because the way her eyes changed with the pupil dilating and the way she's looking at me like she is a predator and I'm her prey and she's going to devour me if I do not leave "but I would love you to stay, please." she added. The sensible part of me that wants to leave immediately died after hearing her say please and beg. "Get on all four"Complete
In Trouble
She fought as hard as she could, the icy waves crashed down upon her. Her bones were sore, her legs so tired of kicking, yet she never gave up. "So close" she thought as she swam towards a small boat, "im almost there" she said aloud. As if saying the words out loud would help her, for her they did. It gave her strength, she swam harder and faster untill she finally reached the small wooden boat. On the boat a group awaits for her, "cassi" one of the guys said excitingly "we didnt think you'd make it, thought we'd have to fish you out" he gave her a chuckle. The other boys laughed aswell "yeah well, i didnt want to become a popsicle, ya know?" he laughed even louder "none of us wanted to" their faces went cold. "Anyways, lets get you out of that water, welcome to the crew" the boys cheered. They pulled her out of the water, with a warm blanket they wrapped her, few gave her pats on the back. Her body was frozen and sore, proud that she made in, but tired .Complete

Freedom (To be edited)
"Where are you going?" He asked "To my home, what does it look like? Get your father in line or I will." I snapped. "Why are you taking your anger out on me?" he asked in a confused voice standing in the doorway so I couldn't get out. Was he being serious right now? Did he not just witness his father treating me like trash? Well, I got my back anyway so screw this. Brittany has grown up disgusted with the expectation of submission and obedience to men. It is on these grounds that she vowed never to get married, I mean, oppose society with all she got. Her beliefs are shaken to the core when a certain angel not only catches her eyes but grips her thoughts, heart, and inner being, does she intend to bend her knee for his family that clearly demands it or push on with her crumbling rhythm of feminism? After all, choice is the true freedom.
