"Mama, I beg you please let me go. . .Please?  I can't do this. I will be miserable for the rest of my life."

"Sometimes you have to sacrifice for the sake of your family. You deserve a good life and we can no longer provide you with that."

"Mother, there will be another way. I will do anything for our family, but please... not this!"

"Im sorry. Your father and I already agreed to this. The wedding is tomorrow evening."

She left my room and I felt desolation. The fear of not knowing how to remain the good daughter while maintaining my sanity and freedom.

As I remembered my last conversation with my mother 2 nights ago.  I felt pain and tears threatened to fall.

"There are things that money can buy, but not my happiness. I can come up with a solution to our problem. I have to. I need to. Oh God, please I desperately need your intervention right now."

As I ponder on this while trying to enjoy what is left of my measly breakfast, I heard a resounding blast. The building shook! A loud shriek from the kitchen and pandemonium in the packed cafe ensued, pushing me out of my trance and into alertness.

"Get out of here now! Call the Fire Department!" someone shouted from the cafe.

I quickly got out of the building.  I was already running when I felt the air left my lungs and a strong force propelled me into the air, towards something. . . something hard and muscular?

"What the fu*k!"

Even with the cursing, I cannot help but tremble from that sultry voice. The voice of the person who caught me and steadied me. . . before blackness engulfed me.

Lance's POV

"What the fu*k!"

Something or rather someone was thrown into me. I almost got out of balance, thank goodness for my athletic stance, I was able to catch her and balance myself.

A loud explosion, the noise had reverberated over the town as efficiently as a thunder clap and by now the fire and police department's finest would be on their way, siren's blazing.

I had no time to search for the cause of the explosion. I felt her went limp, maybe she lost consciousness due to the impact.

"Miss! Wake up! we have to go somewhere safe! Oh crap! I don't need this now!"

Seeing that she probably is knocked out, I carried her bridal style and proceeded to search for cover.

By then, several debris were falling out from the building of the cafe I was supposed to meet a client. There was chaos near the smoky vicinity, and so I ran away with her in my arms.
