SHATTERED HEART

　　I am Zoya Hildan, born to Anna and Aly Hilan. The younger child of my parents. Growing up my parents were always understanding with me, they wanted me to run in the race of dreams just like everyone else in the world. Despite being born with all abilities, I was always an average student and even a dumber human being. But I had my elder brother to support me in every step of my life.

　　He was there when our parents died, when I quit school and began to work on the farms to support my aunt. My Aunty says the world is a very bad place thats why she keeps me away from every matter saying I am too innocent.

　　Now, all my dreams have turned into lies. My smiles turn to tears, my hopes have turned into fears. Because I know that no one is coming to rescue me. Not even my brother.

　　Here I am being taken away by a monster, the person I fear most! Im preparing myself to surrender at his feet and to be his slave officially forever. This is a funeral day for me.

　　For me, I am dying today and entering the abyss of hell which will rip my skin slowly and throw me to the fire to feel the pure taste of burning. And the worst part is I would face it every day. Everyday!!!!

　　………….

　　A 16-year-old girl is standing at the altar and shaking like a leaf, her eyes holding fear and a plea as they collide with the harsh and vengeance-filled steel blue eyes of the man standing on the other side of the veil, just centimeters away from her. A palpitating hand on her shoulder brings her back to reality as she turns to face her aunt who is assuring her weakly to say no and run away with them.

　　A tear cascades down her rosy cheeks and with a heavy heart, she looks away and inhales a deep breath. This was for her family, for his only living family. With that thought in mind, a gentle whisper rushes out of her chapped lips.

　　"I..I do!" Her quivering voice came.

　　She was married even when she didnt know the proper definition of it.

　　That was it. Everything spun, her life shattered, she wanted to cry,

　　Badly,should someone add? She wanted to cry her heart out. But no!! She couldnt, not in front of her family who was everything to her. She gave up, in front of this selfish, ruthless person she threw her armor and surrendered.
