Mine is the desert itself...
Fortunately, CJ decided to give me the day off since I have been working diligently and he's impressed with my work.
I really don't know how to feel about CJ. He's really confusing me. Why is he being nice to me suddenly? He promised to tear me apart so, could acting nice be part of his plan?
One thing I'm sure, I won't fall into his trap...
I'm not as dumb as he thinks I am.I shamble to the kitchen lazily.
It's quite a lazy morning and I just feel like lying in bed and sleeping the entire bed. But then I'm severely hungry so I have to make breakfast. It's times like this that I wish I was one of those girls who starve themselves intentionally to stay skinny... Can't be me...
I open the fridge and I'm slapped by shock.
The fridge is completely empty.
No groceries.
No milk.
No yogurt.
No icecream.
Nothing.
The doorbell rings and before I even get the door, I h

TRENT Once upon a time...
"Baby?"I hear a familiar female voice call.I look behind CJ to see Jessica, holding hands with Fidel. And tagging along with them, is the pretty Heaven.Oh, so they all hang out and stuff? I guess their friendship has grown stronger as the years have gone by.The little boy jumps happily,"Mommy!!!"Jessica is startled to see me. The last time we saw each other, our meeting didn't go too well and she said some "not-so-pleasant" things to my face.She fakes a smile. "So you're still around?"She can't hide how much she hates me. It's allover her voice and face.Fidel looks much older now with a bulky beard, looking way better and more mature than he did the last time I saw him.Fidel ignores my presence and forces a smile as he squats." Brandon baby! Come to daddy!"So this is their child?The first time I thought that this was CJ's kid. "But I want to play wi

3 years ago... Hours before the wedding, Dee just dashed into the washrooms. I'm left staring at myself in the mirror. Despite the makeup, I still find my face dark and pale.Is this what I really want? Do I really want forever with CJ? Am I ready for this? Am I ready for him? To have kids with him? Make a family with him? Shit! Why am I having second thoughts? Do I really love him? If I do, why do I have this many doubts?My phone rings, pulling me from the range of thoughts lined up in my mind.An unknown number.I quickly pick up."Hallo?""Hallo."CJ's dad."Mr. Jean?""Terra, I believe today is your big day.""Yes it's my wedding day."
TRENT It was me...
They immediately break off and he pulls up his trousers as Zara zips her dress.He looks at me, astonished and puzzled."Terra?""Eli?"Zara's face is flushed with embarrassment. This is the guy she didn't want me to find out about? Eli?But why?"Uh... See you around..." Eli looks at me then at Zara who is looking down at the ground.Eli seems a little disappointed as he leaves, leaving me alone with Zara.I laugh. "So it's Eli? The guy you've been trying so hard to keep a secret?"Zara rolls her eyes, pretending to be busy washing her hands but her face is still flushed."I'm not keeping him a secret!""Well, that's what it looks like..."Zara stares at me sharply. "Something is kept a secret when there's something. But there's nothing between us."I giggle. "What I saw some few minutes ago didn't seem like nothing."
TRENT My soul fancies you...
I storm inside.I start fishing for CJ through the crowd, Seven running behind me, trying to calm me down but I'm having none of that.I spot him with his colleagues, drinking wine and I stomp towards him."Where the fuck is my car!"CJ stares at me, astonished. "What the hell are you talking about?""I asked, where the fuck is my car! Stop playing games with me!"CJ frowns, getting closer towards me."Nobody's playing games here..."I scowl at him. "I'm done with you and your fucking stupid games CJ! I want my fucking car back or else!"CJ gets even closer. "Lower your voice, Terra. You're causing a scene."I cackle, stepping back. "Oooh... I'm causing a scene? Well, let me show you what a scene looks like..."I grab the glass of wine from his hand and splash it on his face.Fury glints in his eyes as he wipes off his wet face with the back of his hand. The fact that I got under his skin bring

CEDRIC JEANBliss overwhelms me.Today is my big day.The day I make her mine. And me, hers.I check my watch, a little bit irked that time is the only thing that's keeping us apart.She should be here by now, taking the vows, exchanging rings as I watch her face dazzle when she smiles at me. She has the most beautiful smile and though I've told her before, it never seems to be enough...All the guests are here, all of them whispering and giggling.The air is starting to get tense.Where could she be? Has something happened to her? Oh God! Where the fuck could she be?Her bestfriend walks in, an envelope in her hand.She walks down the aisle, straight towards me and hands over the letter.I quickly open it and see a letter inside.
TRENT Fuck Age
TERRASeven dropped me off at work early in the morning on his bike.I didn't want to report to work this morning but then I remembered this is the only job I have and I have to put up with CJ for the sake of it. This is my ticket away from this town. Far far away from this town.It's been nothing but chaos ever since. CJ is trying his best at tearing me apart and he's sort of winning though I hate to admit. I know he's the one who wrecked my car last night. It all makes sense now. Why he invited me to the party last night...To embarrass and humiliate me as he buys time to steal my car and smash it.I FUCKING HATE HIM.I HATE HIM SO FUCKING MUCH.I spent almost the entire night sobbing uncontrollably. I was so shaken up that Seven offered to sleep beside me as he consoled me.Seven
TRENT To finish her off completely...
"That bitch is nuts!"Zara is yelling in my office as I'm seated opposite her on my swivel chair, still shaken by the events that just occurred.Heaven storming into the office. Heaven glaring at me. Heaven taking out the knife. Heaven slashing her wrists. Heaven being rushed to hospital.It all happened so fast that I was shook at the moment. The only thing that could register in my mind at the time was that it was my fault. The reason she was lying there, blood dripping profusely from her wrists was all because of me.CJ rushed her to hospital and I haven't heard from him since."Let's just hope she's okay.""No! Let's just hope she's dead!"I gasp. "Jesus! No Zara!""What? I'm just saying what your mouth is too afraid to say. I mean, what kind of stupid stunt is that she pulled? Such a dramaqueen!"Could it be a stunt she pulled? Or is she so obsessed with CJ that she's really willing to risk her own life?"Wha
TRENT Be mine...
My pillow is torn into pieces.Balls of cotton are lying everywhere on the ground and my bed. The sheets have been torn apart outrageously, the pieces lying on the ground. Everything has been misplaced and hurled to the ground, even my clothes.But that's not horrifying.What's horrifying is the body on the bed.The dead smelly body of a cat, blood splattered on the torn sheets.A note is left just beside the carcass of the cat."You are following in the footsteps of the cat!!!!! RUN OR DIE!!!"A hand touches on my back and I jerk in horror.I heave a sigh of relief when I see Seven standing behind me looking worried and concerned.For a moment, I stare at him, the lump in my throat burning. I feel so shaken and so scared that I fall into his arms and lay my head on his chest. I fight the urge to break down into tears so bad but it's all to no avail since I break down so hard and so bitterly, all the hurt I've been kee
