“"You're making trouble again,Selena,are you not done yet?”
“I don't care where you go now,but we're going to have a dinner party at the old house next month,so don't embarrass me and come back before time.”
“What if I won't?”I could be an obedient wife and listened to him but now I lost the power,lost the courage.I just wanted to run away from him,end this marriage,so that nothing could hurt me anymore.
As I said,Ryan's face was darkened in anger.
“Selena,are you trying to anger me to death?”Ryan sneered,“Look at you,you are looking like a homeless bitch.How dare you talk over me?”
“Selena,be your right self when you still have the time or else don't blame me.”He rubbed the middle of his forehead and tossed his black card to me,“Go and buy some new clothes for you.The way you are right now,seeing you I want to puke.”
“Such an eyesore!”He mumbled while frowning.
Looking at his expression,this man felt foreign to me.
I couldn't help but recall our past again.
…
“Ryan,look at those red rashes.”I,the little sixteen year old girl,cried out,“I look like a pig.”
“What if I can't ever recover from this?”I rubbed my face looking at the mirror and cried harder,“Do you still want me if it leaves scars?”
Ryan,who was barely nineteen,held me in his lap and coaxed me for a good two hours,“Sele,are you out of your mind?You are the love of my life.”
He kissed my forehead and squeezed my palm,“I will always love you even if it has scars.In my eyes,you are the most beautiful girl.”
“I love you,Ryan.”I kissed his cheek,“Don't change alright?”
…
Heh!Appearances changed with time,love faded with time too.
The man in front of me was now arrogant and powerful whereas I was the same girl who still liked to be drawn into his love.
Once Ryan and I were in love but now we were disgusted with each other.
Life always had its different way of playing with us.
I didn't continue to talk to him anymore yet Ryan didn't notice if anything was wrong with me.Well,I was not surprised as he no longer cared for me.
I was still preparing to leave and was about to set my foot forward when his voice buzzed again.
“While shopping,if you see something suitable for a little girl,buy one for Sarah,she would love that.”
A faint smile appeared on his lips,“Pink looks better on young girls.They look like butterflies.”
