Mia POV
The tension in the car was intense that it could be cut with a knife. I dare not talk or move. It was becoming uncomfortable sitting in the same position. But I rather sit in the same position then to make a single move.
The scary man was keep clenching and unclenching his hands. It was obvious he was pissed but I don’t know why and I don’t want to know either. Whoever he is pissed at, well, good luck to the person.
It felt like hours that we were travelling in the car. I started to think that we were going out of the town. God no please. Don’t tell me he is going to bring me out of the town and kill me.
I mean he won’t kill me, Right? Or would he? As I was pondering on the thought of whether he is going to kill me or not, the car came to a abrupt stop.
I look out to see we have reached wherever we are supposed to be at. I jumped as I heard a sudden slam. I see to the other side and realise the scary man was no more sitting beside me. He must have left.
I took a deep breath and got out of the car. Just then then the driver came to open my door. I thanked with a nod.
“Mam, please go inside. Your things will be inside.” He said and I nodded at him. I took small steps and walked in the walkway that leads to my new ‘home’. It feels weird to even say that.
Soon I reached the porch. The door was opened and I entered. As I step inside, I was mesmerized by the beauty. It was beautiful. It didn’t look that modern neither did it look blunt. It was really breath taking.
I was admiring the beauty that I didn’t realise someone was standing beside me. She cleared her throat to gain my attention.
I quickly turn around and saw a lady smiling at me sweetly. “Sorry.” I squeaked out. I felt embarrassed. “Its ok Child.” She chuckled as she dismissed me off.
“My name is Mary Willows” She said as smiled at me. “Well Mrs Willows, I am,” I started but unable to finish. “Oh please call me Mary. And I know who you are, Amelia Mariano.” She said. Right Change of surname. Great.
I saw my stuff in the living room and went to grab them.
There were a few boxes and few suitcases. Looks like my family cleared my entire room. Thanks mum and dad. (Note the sarcasm) I thought to myself.
I turned around to ask the lady where am I staying before she beat me to it. “Mr Mariano’s room is upstairs. I will have some people to send your stuff up.” she said as I frown.
I am not gonna stay together with him in his room. I quickly shake my head. “Can I use the guestroom please. ” I asked. She frown. “But,” she started but I didn’t let her complete.
“Please” I begged her again. She sighed and nodded her head. I grabbed a suitcase and the two boxes while Mary brought a suitcase and a box. We walked upstairs and she brought me a room that was at the end of the hallway.
She entered and left the boxes and came out. “If you want anything don’t hesitate to call me Amelia.” She said as she smiled at me. “Sure. And please call me Mia.” I said while she smiled and left. I entered the room while I left my stuff where Mary had left.
I closed the door and took a deep breath. Everything that happened today dawn on me now. I got married to a man whom I am scared off. He hates me and said he will become my worst nightmare.
As I thought about all of this, tears starts to flow on its own. I don’t want any of this. I thought to myself. I slide down and start to cry.
I cried for some time before I realised I still was in my wedding dress. I opened up my suitcase and took out my black PJ romper. I saw two doors.
I went to open the nearest one and saw that it was a walk in closet. It looked classy and luxurious. I should start unpacking if I am gonna stay here.
I opened another door. It was the bathroom It looks just like the walk in closet. Classy and luxurious. I entered the bathroom and got out of the wedding dress and slipped onto my PJ. I washed of the make up and cleansed my face.
Once I was done I entered back to the room. When I entered the room, did I realise how tired I was. I switched off the lamps and went straight to bed letting sleep take over me.
