"There is only one happiness in this life and that is to be loved" - George sand

Aurora has always been the 'unattractive, unattainable' girl throughout her whole life. No man has ever approached her with the intention of courting her, rather they approached her to learn more about her best friend. She was better known as a 'DUFF'. But now with her best friend dead and a baby depending on her, she finds herself trapped in a loveless marriage that will test and strengthen her character. Like most 21st century women, she views herself as a feminist. One who doesn't believe in love. She views love as a Capitalist movement created to control unsuspecting minds while breaking their bank accounts. But she finds herself falling in love with a man. Not just any man, her friends boyfriend who also happens to be her husband.

Deep In The Mud

<p>It was an ordinary night, like every other night after a long day at work. My father had started grooming me to take over the company because according to him, l had been performing exceptionally well and he felt like l was ready for the responsibility that was owning a company  </p>

<p>The news was music to my ears although he had started applying the whole 'settle down, have responsibilities other than work' pressure. I couldn't stand being in the presence of the man because whenever he saw me, he saw an opportunity to talk my ear off about grandchildren and a wife</p>
