"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

I don't know what to make of the situation, Darke is texting my phone like crazy and as much as l want to be angry with him, what if something bad happened and my stubborn self can't see past his mistakes

The last time he texted me this much was to tell me that our grandmother was rushed to the hospital. I was on a date with my then boyfriend and l had put my phone on silent. At the end of the date, l couldn't stop gushing about how infatuated l was about the guy, the last thing on my mind was checking my phone

When he dropped me off in my dorm room, that's when l took out my phone from my handbag, excited to tell Darke all that had happened only to find a lot of missed calls from him. I called him back immediately but l was too late, she was already gone
