Heartbroken, I grabbed my purse, and took a taxi going to the cemetery just to talk to my mom. I am so tired and have no idea what to do with my life anymore.
I stared at my mom’s grave, cried loudly as I gushed out how Adrian turned a cold shoulder to me all these years. I never revealed a bit of it cause I didn’t want her to worry about me, but this time was different. “Mom… You told me that I have to choose what’s best for me. I will choose myself this time.”
I wiped away my tears and put on my sunglasses again, “I gotta go mom…”
And when I was about to go, I froze in my feet as I saw Mia and Adrian.
Mia raised an eyebrow at me, “You… What are you doing here?”
Adrian blurted out, “Are you stalking us, Amara? I thought we'd already talk about this? I told you that I will reschedule the wedding!”
I scoffed bitterly, “Why would I follow you everywhere, Adrian? I am not such a crazy woman who would want your attention twenty-four-seven!”
Mia sneered softly and asked, “What are you doing here then? Don’t tell me this is a coincidence?!”
I bit my lower lip and adjusted my black tinted sunglasses, “I don’t have time for this. I think I have to go and leave you two alone—”
But before I could walk away, Adrian grabbed my arm tightly pulling me close to him, “You’re lying… you’re spying on us, right?”
I shoved him away and stepped back, “In your dreams…”
How dare he ask me if I was spying on them? What are they? A celebrity?!
And Mia started to cry in the corner, “Uh, my baby… I’m gonna miss my lovely sparky!” she said while staring at her deceased pet cat.
I massaged my temple and when I was about to go, my eyes widened when Mia’s bodyguards started digging on my mother’s grave.
I exclaimed angrily, “HEY! Fuck off!”
I ran towards them trying to kick away their shovels, I stood in the middle while glaring at them one by one. “ What do you think you’re doing?!”
Adrian was confused and raised a question, “Amara! Are you crazy?!”
“No, you can’t do this!” I said, trying to hold back my tears with arms out in front of a guard.
And the guard trying to explain, “We are just obeying orders—”
I threw the shovel away and shouted on top of my lungs, “STOP!”
Amara’s POV
I shouted at them angrily, my voice echoing the whole cemetery. My tears suddenly rolled down on my cheeks as I stared at my mom’s grave. I couldn’t help but feel sorry for her.
