"What would there be to lie about." I spoke barely above a whisper.
She was behind me with her arms wrapped around my torso.
This I remember vaguely.
We had just met up with each other and got married after college. Our lives had already begun.
Such a young and happy couple. She wrapped her arms around my torso so that we could take a picture.
She must've read my mind because her arms tightened around me and she buried her head in my neck.
It made me shudder. "That's not your fiance. That's a boy. He's not even a man. I can tell. You aren't happy." Her voice croaked with desperation, but steadiness. Thank God I was tied up. She was temptation. The color purple looked damn good on her too , back when she used to wear it. It's the color of temptation.
Now, she's nothing but dark. Emotionless it would seem.
