Love And Hardship

Episode 1

I ran to my room as I laid on my bed crying, I hugged my pillow think of how can my father do this to me, how can he be so cruel to just sell me like a toy knowing how Liam hated me so much, I knew that the company was not doing well but to the extent of selling me is too much.

I started to cry even more at the thought of how Liam will hate me even further and become more distant from me. I never knew why he hated me so much but he made it known to me that he did, and that's why I hid my feelings from him.

That night I fell asleep while crying; the next morning I woke up and look in the mirror, my eyes were Swollen, I hurry up and cover them up with some makeup and put on a beautiful yellow dress with butterflies that went just above my knees.

I look at my reflection feeling pity for me thinking of how my life has been so unfortunate all the time since I was born; my father never wanted me ever since my mother died, probably because I look too much like her or because I was the cause of her death.

My oldest sister is not an exception she took the opportunity of my dad not liking me to bully me all the time, no matter if she was in the wrong I would always get punished for her actions I learned to no say anything about it because it will just get worse.

I was brought back to reality when I heard someone knocking at my bedroom door

''who is it''

''Father said that you need to come down immediately because its almost time to meet grandpa ''

''Yes I will go in a second ''

I did some last-minute retouches and headed downstairs to eat breakfast, I eat some pancakes with eggs and bacon and washed it down if I glass of cold milk. It was delicious. As I was finishing my breakfast I hear I voice say

'' Are you happy now ''

''...''

It's was Rose my sister she was wearing a short black dress that Liam had gifted her for her last birthday it fit perfectly with her body shape embracing every curve she had.

My sister has always been beautiful, all her life she has been the doted child my dad's precious little gem everything she wanted she could get it except Liam because I had taken away that from her.

''I said are you happy ''

I was brought back to reality as she yelled calmly

'' You get to marry Liam right isn't that what you always wanted ''

''No'' I lied while facing the floor

'' What do you mean you have always liked him don't you remember since you were 16 ''

'' That's right but not anymore '' I lied again

'' Oh I remember how pitiful you look while chasing him around but remember he likes me and will always like me ''

''...''

'' If it wasn't for grandpa I would be the one marrying him in a couple of weeks '' Rose said with a smile Mocking me ''

We got in the car and drove about 2 hours to grandpa's house, grandpa has been one of the only people who have been always good to me he has always favored me over my sister because he can see through some of her lies.

Because my dad's company was struggling grandpa took the opportunity to marry me to his only grandson Liam, in exchange for getting help with the company and my dad reluctantly agreed for he well knows that Rose likes Liam.

When we got there I had to face the thing I loved and hated the most in my life, Liam...

Episode 2

When we got to grandpa's house we were greeted by the head maid in the house who I called aunt Susy she was one of the people who have always treated me kindly and with love ever since I was little.

I remember when mom died grandpa and aunt Susy were the only ones not blaming me for the death of my mother when everyone turns their back on me they were the ones who did not, and would always be here for me.

''Welcome do come in, please '' aunt Susy said greeting me with a big hug and a smile, I hugged her back feeling some consolation from all that is happening right now. Looking at how I reacted she looked at me with pity in her eyes knowing well that I did not wish this to happen.

As I got inside I felt anxious as all eyes were on me especially Liams, his eyes were ice-cold piercing through my skin I felt as he could almost strangle me with his gaze. I greeted everyone in the room and I sat down.

'' you must already know why I called you here right'' grandpa said breaking the awkward silence ''I'm old now and I want grandchildren and that's about it '' he said with a proud smile, Luna blush as he said that and looked up and meet Liams eyes they were bitters and full of rage, I quickly lower my head as I saw that.

LIAMS POV:

I heard aunt open the entrance and I knew that they have arrived I sat down waiting for everybody in the living room and greeted and uncle and Rose, I did not bother greeting Luan, as I was about to turn around in the corner of my eye I saw that Luna was hugging aunt looking worried and unhappy I felt my blood boiling thinking of how good of an actor she must be knowing well that this is what she wanted.

I made my way to my seat and sat down, a couple of seconds past and she came in looking nervous and afraid she looks right at me and quickly lowered her head, I looked away as I did not want to pay any attention to her. As everyone sat down grandpa broke the silence and spoke ''you must already know why I called you here right'' ''I'm old now and I want grandchildren and that's about it '' he said with a proud smile, I did not say anything as we have already discussed this in privet, and there was no way around it, I look towards Luna and she was blushing I felt even angrier as I very well knew that it was all her fault that I'm being forced to marry her.

LUNAS POV:

'' the wedding will be in 3 weeks there will not be any discussion my decision is final'' as grandpa saw that there will be no comments he said '' You should say for diner we have prepared Lunas favored food today '' he said smiling '' yes thank you, grandpa,'' said dad ''we will '' as we sat down at the diner table grandpa signal me to sit next to him I obediently sat next to him and smiled.

As I was sitting I saw in the corner of my eye Rose taunting me because she was sitting next to Liam I did not pay any attention because that day I decided that when I marry him I would stay away as far as possible, for I did not want to be hated by him even more dan he does, I decided that I will finally get over my love for him and divorce him as soon as possible.

Episode 3

I woke up feeling a little sad from yesterday I can still feel the way he looks at me with disgust I shook that thought away and got up I desired to go to the mall to get my mind occupied from all this mess I’m feeling I went into the shower and took a relaxing bath when I was done I wore a white shirt with a black skirt two fingers above my knees which I pair them with three-inch heels.

I went down and order the maid to make me breakfast as I have gotten up earlier than usual so I can avoid my annoying sister and my father, I was just finishing when the haves decided to betray me and woke up Rose from her slumber she was still wearing the usual pink pajamas that she always wore to bed '' where are you going so early in the morning, uh I bet you are going to go meet a man you dirt *****'' she said while smiling '' why are you not saying anything!'' she yelled loudly which made my dad get up and investigate what was happening, ''great currently my day isn't going as planned'' I whisper to myself.

''What is happening here why the commotion early in the morning!'' dad spoke ''dad '' Rose Wind as shown in made her way to grab dad by the arm ''she got up this early in the morning to sneak out and go with who knows what guy'' '' Luna I'm telling you, you are already engaged and about to marry in three weeks remember that and I won't let past that you stole your poor sister boyfriend if it wasn't for grandpa than your sister would be marring Liam in your place and don't you forget if this marriage fails then the company will go bankrupt do you realize what you are doing how can you be so shameless to go and meet some other man'' dad said with anger.

''I’m not going to meet another man I’m just going to the mall to buy some stuff and look around'' '' shut up I never thought you would be so shameless to even deny it, then tell me why are you going so early in the morning when you knew that your sister and I were going to be asleep uh why are you trying to sneak out who are you trying to avoid seeing you''

'' I'm not trying to avoid anyone or trying to sneak out '' '' You are lying '' said Rose as shown in lookt at me taunting me '' I am not, I was just trying to get them most of the day so I can do the stuff I want before I go to my part time job today '' I said in frustration.

'' see dad she is lying her job is in the morning no in the afternoon'' before my dad could open his mouth to say something I interrupted '' yes I switched Shifts with my coworker because he had something important to do that evening you are just trying to get dad to get mad at me and not let me out '' Rose why are you stirring up drama early in the morning why are you saying such nonsense '' ''no dad I thought wrong I didn't mean to make a misunderstanding,right sis I would never try to hurt you ''

My dad has always favor Rose with no doubt about that and he believes her over me but when there’s proof that I’m right he will accept it, but that doesn’t change the fact that he will believe that his precious Rose didn't do it intentionally or in purpose.

''Yes that right dad '' I said reluctantly while clenching my fist and smiling.
