13. Preparation
The day was busy, we had a little meeting about the place of our meeting on how we would like it to look like. I already told the organizer that I want it simple since it's a garden wedding and an intimate one. I choose tulips and hydrangeas as one of the flowers that will be decorated here on the garden.
I sigh and look at the catalog of wedding gowns. I then saw a gown that caught my eyes it was a bohemian wedding dress, styled with 3d flowers and low scoop back and tulle flowing skirt. I look at the designer while pointing my finger at the picture.
"I want this one," I said and smiled. She nodded her head and ordered her staff to get the measuring tape then they measured me then talk a few more about how would I like it to look like if there's something I need to add or maybe change in the design, I just shake my head and smile, we finish the day busy on the preparations.

The preparations went well, I had fun talking to the organizers and looking at their works they're magnificent. Corro was always out because of work and making sure that everything was going smoothly, it's been a month since we stayed here.I yawn and look at the clock, I am exhausted by just doing nothing guess it's a pregnancy thing, I smiled and caress my belly a baby bump was already showing off. I leaned on the sofa and look at the magazine I was looking at, I glance at my journal and decided to reach for it.I opened the journal and saw the folded paper that the anonymous person left, I didn't know who sent it and who made it there's nothing unusual happening, and the attacks are stopped but Corro didn't bring his guards down because he wants to make sure that everything is fine up to our wedding day at least.I folded the letter back and put it back in my journal, I di
Lie a Little 15. Wedding
It's today, I heaved a sigh and smiled. I am now wearing the gown. I look at the mirror, the reflection of me wearing this finally, it's this day."Miss Roana, your veil," The dresser said, I nodded and stand there in front of the mirror as the dress puts the veil on the top of my head, clipped it at the tied hair. I saw the maid smiled with joy in their eyes, I am nervous but I am excited because finally, it's today."Are you ready soon-to-be Mrs. Roana Galvez?" The wedding coordinator said. I nodded my head and look at my reflection again in front of the mirror. Then the staff monitored the whole event, they said that I should get ready. Senyora Marideth arrived last night, I just wish that even if just my mother was the only one here, I hope that she could see me today in this wedding dress.I sigh and waited in the room, one of the staff knock on the door and the coordinator nodded s
Lie a Little 16. Confuse
What is it like on the outside? I sigh and watch the waves dance on the shores. I want to feel the warm water and the wind on my face while smiling at the sun."Mina," I look at Livv, he was smiling at me while carrying a tray of food. I smiled back and extend my hands to reach his. "I bought you a snack, how are you?" He asks when he reached my hand, squeezing it a little. I glance at my arms that were slightly swelling."I am fine, I guess?" I said, not sure of what to answer. He sat next to me and look at my arms he then placed the tray of snacks on the table. "Let me see," He said, I raise my arms a little so he can look at it.It's been a week when they found and rescued me from the incident, they said that I was abducted and was about to be sold to some gross old men and I can't remember what happened but I believe he tho something was odd. I shrug the thought away and lo
Lie a Little 17. Part of Me
Note: If you reached it this far, don't be shy give momi a comment it would be gladly appreciated. Thank you for your never-ending support! xoxo. I feel alive yet lost, I don't know what this means but I can say that it was something I didn't remember. I caress my belly, a stinging pain my heart was lingering inside, the shallow feeling of heart, broken pieces of memory once a part of me was lost I can't help but wonder what happened and who was the father but Livv said that it's possible I got molested and raped before the auction. "Mina, we need to hurry," Henry said, I turn my head to him I saw his head peaking on the dear fingers tapping the door frame. I just nodded and grab my bag that's in the bed. I sigh and wear my jacket. "Where are we going?" I asked him as we walk side by side, I look at the guards who are now following us, the maids carrying our bags. I r
Lie a Little 18. New Life
I inhale the cold and comforting breeze, the cold air enveloping my body I stroke my arms with both of my hands while smiling. I heard footsteps approaching me followed by a large exaggerated sigh. "I see you like it," He said, I glance at him and smiled. I like it a lot because this was the place it all started, this is the place I said yes to him and we had our relationship a secret. "This is the place," I whispered and stare back at the sky and back at him. I turn my head facing him, with a smile plastered on my face. "I remember it all, this was the place where we promised," I said to him, I saw him grinned like a child and turn his head to me, a g
Lie a Little 19. Untold Lies
Livv and I, what we had was one of the best days I had in my entire life. He made me feel like I am special, needed to be treated right, giving me the love I didn't know I deserve but I know that the show must go on. Things were bound to happen, love was not enough. I had to do something, for Roana, for my mother and this is where it all began, the untold lies. "Don't touch her!" Livv, emphasizing each word the man's grip on my wrist tighten more as I winced in pain, feeling his nails dugs into my skin. I heard his father laugh. "Livv, son this imposter needs to be punished!" He said, as his gun motioned pointing me. I heard Livv angry voice filled the room, I sob harder. "I'll handle her! we agreed on this, if you want me to marry the daughter of Marcus leave Mina alone!" He said as his eyes darted to me, the man who was holding me was grinnin
Lie a Little 20. Seducing Him
They say if you can't fight the devil join him and they're right. I smiled sweetly at him, on my inside was disgusted by him, I thought he was the man I dreamed of, but turns out that this angel-looking face was a demon."What are you thinking?" He asks me, hugging me from behind I smiled at him not trying to making it fake. "Just things, you know-," I trailed off, I face him and ran my finger on his shoulder in a circular motion I can saw how he gritted his teeth, clenched jaw if I had known better and blind to what he was doing I'd be feeling butterflies in my stomach but no."Things about us, what could have happened if we only got married," I said, He held my waist tightly as his eyes flamed in desire, I bite my lips to make it more real. He swallowed hard, staring directly into my eyes."If we only got married back then, we would have a kid by now running around the house, probably five years old
Lie a Little 21. Close
I sighed as I watch the videos of poor souls, the children who were afraid and traumatized by their stupid doings. I closed my eyes as I can hear the children cry it's like my heart was clenched tightly. I opened my eyes and watch the video. "Henry," I called my cousin, he looks at me-- I know that expression he was sorry, even him can't take it. "Do it, what I told you I'm sure mama would know and support you deliver my message to her," I said and clenched my fist. He nodded and sigh. "What else?" He asks, I look at him with cold eyes and gritted my teeth. "We have to end this fast, free the children I'll keep Livv busy," I said to him, he nodded. I handed him the flash drive that contains Markov's illegal deeds since his father died, Livv became worst than his father and I can't imagine that I am once in love with him. It's all planned. I watch the news spread like wildfire, I want to laugh but I cont
