On this particular day two weeks ago I was stuffed into a grenade and launched.

Two weeks ago, this sham of a marriage started.

Two weeks, since I lost my mind calling that utterly ridiculous person with an alter personality of Leone Alessio Valentini. But all my calls went in gutter, I mean voice mail.

All my family members are so excited about the marriage that it's nauseating to see. Every corner of the house is filled with giggling and dreamy looking people. As if they will finally get their gifts from Santa.

As for me, I cannot take it anymore. So I needed to get away from all the mushy giggles before I threw up.

So here I am. Driving off to god only knows where. Tricking Leone's men in black was really tough and now I know why they were assigned to be on my side. Leone had his best guards on my tail all through the years.

That idiotic man!

But honey, stubborn is my middle name and I do whatever the hell I want. So here I am. Trying to find some peace. But Leone is stuck to my mind like a leech. Sucking my blood.

I am pretty rudely interrupted by a loud honking noise by a Bugatti Veyron right on my tail.

I gave it way. But the honking never stopped.

Is this person out of his mind?

I gave him way and the road doesn't have a single vehicle other than us. It's almost outskirts of the city. But no. This idiot is blind perhaps.

I just ignore the car and kept my foot on the gas. But Veyron was quick in following suit.

Bloody hell!!!

By now I was beyond furious due to the constant loud honking, I rolled down my window and gestured for the car to just go away. And it actually slowed down a bit as if the driver was out of focus and I sighed in relief.

I spoke too soon. Way too soon.

The car now was right beside me and the honking oh dear god, I think I am going to loose my ears and my mind both.

But apart from all the irritation, I am feeling something different, a tingly rush perhaps but I can't exactly put a finger on it.

"Maybe it's just stress." I shrugged and decided to focus on the task at hand that is killing that moron of a driver.

I was brought out of my murderous thoughts when the ring of my phone went off.

"This better be important." I said into the phone almost growling while I kept my eyes trained on the outrageous Veyron and the road, simultaneously.

Never multitask while behind the wheel. Never.

"The heck? Ri, what did I do?" My best friend Rosieliana asked from the other side.

"Oh it's you. I am so sorry Ro. I thought it was someone else." I said genuinely, feeling guilty for snapping at her.

"Ah chill out Ri, it's fine. Where are you? You were supposed to pick me up from the airport and it's been almost twenty minutes since I landed but there's no one here. I Am freaking out right now. You know I can't understand or speak French for the life of me." She said
