Chapter 2 CH 1

Sophie's POV

Today is my two years anniversary with Zack.

Stepping into my house, i am greeted with the scent of Maria's pasta's sauce.

"Sophie, where have you been?" Maria is like the mother i never had.

"Mom, you know today is very important to me. I just want everything to be perfect."

Sitting on the couch in the living room was going through my phone when i felt the sudden urge to

puke.

Getting up as quick as I could, I rushed to the nearest bathroom i.e. the guest bathroom. After flushing the toilet, I rinsed my mouth and quickly dabbed my self with the white guest towel.

Going back to the hall, I saw Maria standing at the entrance looking lost in thought with a smile on her face.

"Can I have some orange juice?" I asked her, breaking her out of her daze.

She gave me a worried or questioning look or maybe both. I don't know.

**************

Zack came stumbling in the house obviously drunk.

"Where have you been?" I ask worriedly. He had an angry "Shut the hell up!" he yelled making me flinch and reminding me of my past. A past that I want to forget so bad. The same past that broke me that I thought no one can save me.

He threw some documents my face and told me to sign it. When I saw the words 'DIVORCE' written on it, my whole world shattered completely.

Along with the pressure he was putting on me, I signed the papers with shaky hands and ran to our, cancel that his room, to pack the things I

owned that could be of reach in that moment.

Nausea hit me like a wave for the second time today. I dropped on the bed sitting with my eyes closed tightly.

"Don't think I will feel pity for you", an annoyed voice came.

I got up and grabbed my duffel bag leaving as quickly as possible.

I forgot to add another important person. As you all know by now. It is Maria. I am very busy now

so I cannot write about her. I'll be talking about her in the future chapters.

Very soon, I will be writing my exams.
