I’m in Barcelona, the city where we fell in love, and we’re getting married in a few hours.
My best friend, Vi
"You can kiss."William's speech was short, but the words were too strong to make me and the entire crowd look at him in awe. He spoke in front of people he's not close to, in front of strangers, and he did it all for me.Tiger, who couldn't even pronounce a word just showed everyone how much he loves me. But our speeches can't compare to the way our lips express our love for each other. A hand arou
Later in the night, I shower and put on a nice silk robe, without forgetting to put on some perfume and cream. I want to impress my husband on our wedding night.It isn’t going to be our first time making love, but it feels like it and it makes me think again, sex isn't just about losing your virginity forever, and not getting special moments again.

Back against the wall, crouching legs, chin over knees, arms wrapping them. Keira is crying alone in the corner of her room. A scent of fear, vengeance, and regret flows with the gentle evening breeze. The white t-shirt, which he had offered her for her birthday, was now covered with his blood.

Jayden sighs and nervously rubs the back of his neck. “I did it a thousand times before, but I always feel nervous. Let me explain to you, do you see these people?” he points to the agents. “Each one of them killed someone dear to them. William told me what happened to you.” he stares at me with a sad smile. “Everyone here understands you.”
I open my eyes once again to stop thinking. I turn my head and I see Jayden lying on his bed. I was too drowned in my memories that I didn’t hear him arrive. I sit and take the jacket I was wearing when I came here. I search in the pockets and find my mother’s picture. I lie down and stare at her smiling face. I remember how sad she was when I left Green City after high school when I promised her that I would study well, find a good job and buy her a bigger house. I also promised that I would call her every day, but I didn’t do any of it. I can’t even imagine her state now that her daughter’s face appears day and night on the television.
Later I head to the cafeteria and everyone stops whatever they’re doing to look at me, searching for any bruise or scar on my body. “Are you alright?” Some agents I don’t know ask me.
The next morning, I wake up earlier as I have my first training session with Kyle. I quickly put on my gym shorts and t-shirt to head to the cafeteria. I find the four of them sitting together again, their laughs so loud they could be heard in the entire space.
