Stuck.
Chapter 1
Lynn walks on the isle alone. Her dad is sick and he have two months to live and she had to do this for him. She faked a smile, while slowly walks to the groom. Everyone’s face is happy but she’s not happy. “Do it for your dad, Lynn. For your dad.” She said in her mind. Finally, she reaches the place. “You may sit down” The father said to the others behind her.
“Do you, Peter Gene Hernandez, take Alyssa Lynn Rose as your faithful wife?” “I do” The groom said. “Do you, Alyssa Lynn, take Peter Gene Hernandez, as your faithful husband?” The father asked. She looks around and see her mom and dad who’s smiling with the biggest hope ever, her sister, Brianna just smile and nod at Lynn. Lynn look at Bridgette and Pete, they smile. “Alyssa?” Lynn hates it when people calls her Alyssa. “I do.” These two words turn her world upside down. “With the power invested in me, I now pronounce you, husband and wife. You may kiss your bride.” The father said and the groom, Bruno kiss the bride, its not really a kiss but a peck on the lips. Everyone claps and they celebrate it in a hotel. They gather around the table and eat together, talk, laugh and everything a family will do.
“May I have your attention please?” said Bruno. Everyone stop doing whatever theyre doing and pay attention. “Today might be the happiest day of my life.” Everyone smile. “or maybe the worst.” He mumbles. “But, for now, lets enjoy every minute of our life. And to my bride, you’re beautiful.” He smiles. “Thank you.” Lynn said and everyone goes “awwwww”. The dinner was fun so the wedding couple decided to leave. They both thank everyone and started to walk out from the hotel. Everyone follows them to the car. Lynn throw a bouquet of flower and a girl with a red hair catch it. “I GOT IT!” she screams and everyone smile. But Lynn don’t even know her. She gets in the car and keeps quiet.
“Where are we going?” she asked. “Home.” “And where is this ‘home’?” she asked rudely. “The one that my parents and your dad bought for us.” He rolled his eyes and keeps driving. “OH, k.” Lynn said and looks outside. Deep in her heart she’s missing her boyfriend and she knows this marriage is gonna turn upside down. She looks outside, watch other people, and adore Hawaii.
“Home sweet home.” Bruno said and get out from the car. He walks into the car leaving his ‘beloved’ bride. Lynn pissed off and walk into the house. “Wow, this house is great!” she said under her breath. “Sorry?” Bruno asked. “Nothing.” Lynn said and get into the bed room and slam the door on Bruno’s face. She locks it and take a long hot shower and take her time to think how to divorce with Bruno. After 15 minutes, she gets out and changes into a night dress. She unlocks the bedroom’s door and Bruno gets inside to take a shower. Lynn lie down on the bed and try to sleep but she cant. Bruno gets out from the toilet wearing only BOXER and jumps on the bed.
“WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU THINKING?!” Lynn shouted. “WHAT?” Bruno looks confused. “What. Were. You. Thinking?” She asked again. “I heard you. But what did I do?” Bruno answered her question with a question. “Why are you lying down on the same bed? Did I invite you?” “NO, but we’re married!” Bruno said. “YEAH, BUT I MARRYING YOU JUST BECAUSE MY FATHER ASKED ME TO DO IT BEFORE HE DIES!” she shouted. “Fine, its okay if you don’t want to sleep with me. You can sleep on the couch.” He said and turns around to sleep. “What a great gentleman!” Lynn said and take all of her things and pack.
“Where are you going?” Bruno asked. “Home.” She replies and still packing. “No, this is home.” “FUCK THAT SHIT. Home is where PEOPLE I LOVE IS THERE. Sorry, but I DONT LOVE YOU. I love someone else and that’s my boyfriend. I’ll go. Bye.” Lynn takes the suitcase and walks out from the bedroom. Bruno runs towards her, hold her arm and didn’t let her go. “Let me go!” she screamed. “NO.” “Fine, I’ll do it the hardest way.” Lynn’s leg started to move and she aims Bruno’s carrot. She started to swing it but Bruno cover his carrot. “Its that the best you got?” Bruno laughs and Lynn slap him. “What?!” Bruno pushed her on the wall and stares into her eyes. He feels something weird and let her go. She lifts up her suitcase and started to walk away. “WAIT.” Bruno said.
Lynn stops moving. “You can sleep on the bed and I’ll sleep in the other room.” Lynn turns around and see Bruno’s smiling. “Perfect.” She put her suitcase inside the room and lies down on the bed. She laughs because she thinks Bruno’s stupid. She’s wearing her mini night dress. Who will go out wearing that? She falls asleep thinking what will happen next.
She wakes up and yawns. Its quite an okay night. She walks to the kitchen and make her own breakfast. She cooks scramble eggs with some cheese and pour herself a glass of an orange juice. “I didn’t brush my teeth yet.” She said and run into her bathroom and brush her teeth. She close the door and suddenly her iPhone make noises. She grabs her iPhone and walk to the kitchen while reading her text from Ian, her boyfriend. “Baby, I miss you. I’ll come to see you soon babe. Don’t let him to touch you.” Lynn smile and replies the text while sitting down on the dining table. “I miss you too babe. No, I wont let him, instead, he’s sleeping in another room.” She looks at her plate and its empty. She looks at Bruno and he’s sucking his thumb. “Its delicious. Thanks!” and he burps. “THIS IS MY BREAKFAST YOU STUPID BITCH.” She glares at him “Sorry, I thought it was for me.” She looks at him with the are-you-kidding-me face. “Fine, I’ll cook another one for myself.” She said and makes herself another scramble eggs. Her iPhone make noises on the dining table but she ignores it. Bruno peek and the message says “Ian : I love you baby. Take care.” And he quickly put the dishes away and leaves the kitchen angrily. “Whats wrong with that dude?” she thinks. Lynn finished cooking and eat her breakfast and then wash the dishes. She take her iPhone and reply the text “I love you too. Take care love.” And walks into her room. Hijanah calls her and she immediately pick up her iPhone. The conversation goes ;
L: Hey babe!
H: Hey girlfriend! Hows your husband? *giggles*
L: I don’t know. I don’t even know when is his birthday and his nickname and everything,
H: Awwwww, you make love right?
L: EUW, hell no bitch!
H: Hahaha, I was just kidding. I know you miss Ian.
L: Yeah, I do! Living with someone I don’t love is sucks. Seriously.
H: Yeah, I understand. Look, I’ll pick you up at 1pm and we’ll hang out together.
L: Okay, I’ll take a shower first. Bye, I love you.
H: I love you too bitch.
Lynn walks into the bathroom and takes a shower. Then, she change into a red t-shirt, and a pair of three quarter black jeans and a pair of black converse. Simple but that’s what Ian like. She grabs her bag and walks out from her bedroom and goes to the door. She unlocks it and steps outside. “Mmmmm, fresh air.” She smiles and pull the door to close it. “HEY.” Bruno said. She push the door and see Bruno standing there. “What do you want?” she asked. “Well, I’m your husband, I want to know where are you going.” He said. “I’m going out with my friend. OKAY HUSBAND?” she walks out and slammed the door. “Fucking annoying” she said under her breath. “WAIT!” Bruno opens the door and walks toward her. “I need your phone number.” “For what?” “You know, to call you or whatever?” “Fine.” she gives him her phone number and leave. She see Hijanah’s car and smiles widely.
“BABY! OH MY GOD. I MISS YOU!” she screams out loud. “Shhhhh, I know you do, bitch. But don’t say out loud. Your husband is staring at you.” Hijanah said. Lynn turns around and see Bruno’s staring. “Urgh.” she rolls her eyes and get into Hijanah’s car. They hug each other and kiss on the cheek. “Damn. We didn’t meet for 2 weeks and I’m dying!” Hijanah said and they both laugh. “So, where are we heading?” Lynn asked. “Hmmmmmm. How bout, Vion?” “OH MY GOD. LETS GO.” Lynn gets so hyper. It’s her favorite shopping mall. Hijanah starts the engine and drive away.
They walk out from the car after Hijanah parked the car. The wind blows their hair and someone close Lynn’s eyes. “Who’s this?” Lynn asked the stupid question. “Guess who.” Hijanah said. “Damn, Hijanah, just tell me who is it?!” “Nooooooo way.” He let go of her and she turns to see the guy. “BABY! I MISS YOU!” Lynn jumps on Ian and kiss him. “I miss you too sweetie. I love you.” he said between the kiss. They pull away . “How do you know I’m here?” Lynn asked. “Hmmmmmmm. Hijanah planned this.” Ian smiles. “Awwwwwww! Thanks Hijanah! You’re my bestfriend!” Lynn hugs Hijanah tight. “I know. I know.” Hijanah peck her back and giggles. They spend the day together and be happy. It’s like Lynn is not married but she is. She got a text from Bruno saying “Text or call me whenever you’re heading home.” She doesn’t know why but she ignores it. “Baby, it’s late. I’m going home. Oh, and we’re going for our honeymoon tomorrow. I just. I don’t know. They said they’ll be spying us there. So I gotta be with him twenty-four-SEVEN with him.” Lynn said and kiss Ian. “Hmmm. I’ll miss you so much gorgeous.” Ian said. This is why Lynn loves Ian. She’s herself around Ian. She can be her and not a slut. “I love you.” Lynn said and stares into his blue eyes. “I love you way more” and they kiss. “Let’s go.” Hijanah said. “Bye baby. Please take care of yourself.” Ian gives her a kiss again. “I will. Bye baby.” She left.
