Riccardo and I are in the car talking about what we will do when we get home.

He said I can do whatever I want.

If I don't make a fuss.

That's a little bit stupid but I can't say anything.

I'm bored and sleepy at the same time.

But he seems like he doesn't care.

Suddenly the car stops and I look out the window.

Finally , we arrived home.

"I'm going to change in casual clothes. This dress is heavy." I mumbled.

"Did I ask?" He said.

"No , and I don't care if you asked or not. I just wanted to let you know where I am if you need me."

"I don't need anyone." He replied coldly.

"Yeah , sure."

I entered my room and I go to my closet.

I open it and I see some cute clothes.

A blue top and a pair of black ripped jeans.

Before I could zip my jeans up I see in the mirror  Riccardo leaning  in the door frame staring at me , smirking.

"What do you want?" I ask.

"Nothing." He said , making his way to me.

"Then why are you here? I can't even have privacy?"

"No you can't. Since you're my wife I can see you whenever I want."

"Don't start it now."

"Sure." He replied.

He comes closer to me and we make eye contact through the mirror.

Before I could say something his face turned into a serious one.

"What? What's wrong with my outfit now?"

"Aurora."

"I'm listening."

"Who the fuck did this to you?" He said angry , pointing at my bruise on the neck and hand.

"I fell."

"Liar. Who did this?"

"I can't say it , just leave me alone."

I wanted to walk by him so I could leave his presence, but he grabbed my shoulder and said

"Either you tell me or I will find out myself."

"You promise you won't hurt him?-"

"Oh , so it's a him?"

"Yes."

"I won't promise anything but please finish your sentence."

"It's your dad."

He chuckled.

"Liar. I haven't seen my dad in the past four years."

"Well , he is in town , so I guess you can see him and talk to him."

"How?"

"How what?"

"How this happened? I mean , explain." He said , serious.

"Well.."

* THREE DAYS AGO BEFORE THE WEDDING.*

"Hey Noah , can I ask you a favour?" I said to Noah over the phone.
