"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.

Leaving a foetus in a club seems a bit cruel but who am l to judge when l had promised her that l would help her

"she didn't tell you?" he asks sounding rather surprised

"She did mention it when we first met in the prison cell thanks to Celia"

"You met her in a prison holding cell and you befriended her, how stupid can one be?"

"watch your tone, you abandoned your own baby, you are not one to judge" l said and immediately felt guilty. The wound was still fresh to be reminding him of his careless actions

"There it is, l am sure you've been waiting all night to use this on me. l thought you were on my side but l guess l thought wrong" he says victimising himself
