Deep In The Mud

"There is only one happiness in this life and that is to be loved" - George sand Aurora has always been the 'unattractive, unattainable' girl throughout her whole life. No man has ever approached her with the intention of courting her, rather they approached her to learn more about her best friend. She was better known as a 'DUFF'. But now with her best friend dead and a baby depending on her, she finds herself trapped in a loveless marriage that will test and strengthen her character. Like most 21st century women, she views herself as a feminist. One who doesn't believe in love. She views love as a Capitalist movement created to control unsuspecting minds while breaking their bank accounts. But she finds herself falling in love with a man. Not just any man, her friends boyfriend who also happens to be her husband.

ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY ONE

When did it get so out of control, one minute l was trying to help Darke and the next l am public enemy number one. He knows that l would choose anyone over him, no less a man. I was at odds with Darce before this whole thing, why would l choose to be on his side when he hurt me as well with his actions

But l won't allow myself to take the blame for something l didn't do, nor will l place any blame on him for reacting the way he did because in his head he feels like he was justified. I would have felt the same too but that was so unlike Darke, he usually tries to reason in a situation, could it be the heart ache that is making him act out of character?

And as if it couldn't get any worse, he has been trying his best to avoid me. But that seems like such a job considering that we stay under the same roof. He avoids coming out of his room whenever l am not in mine, he never has dinner with the family. This has been driving my mother crazy but he doesn't seem to care.
