An absolutely unsavory situation got Cathy hooked. How does whe survive everything?

Chapter 1 Bizarre

Deep down, I feel I know how to crack these nuts. No, I do know how to.

But then, somehow, it's so seeming that I'm most likely never going to have this figured out.

I think life's a trickster. Is it? No, I think life's actually a cassonava.

You know how they do right? Charm you, lure you, just to get you fúcked.

How can anyone convince me that life is not a fúckboy when I pulsate from his merciless strokes every now and then? I hate it when he does that. Do I? I think I do hate it.

Hi there, I'm Cathy and I bet nobody has had their minds messed up as I have.

Feel free to call me enigma cause I'm not sure even I understand me.

I could be easy yet difficult, calm and raging at a go, I could actually be silent yet speaking a thousand words in one breathe.

I'm actually a beauty and quite brainy too. These are the only things I'm sure of about myself cause everyday, I've seen how these men look at me with hunger in their eyes.

Everyday, I struggle to escape being devoured. This hourglass figure, beautiful jawline, bright smile and shining black hair is my bane.

I'm not even tryna pull your legs right now. I'm quite a hottie.

On some days, I'm all bubbly, hyped and determined to make great strides.

Other days, I just feel it's futile and not worth the stress.

Cause again and again, I've watched castles I built crumble before my nose.

I had quite high standards and was quite principled too.

Thinking that I used to be the ideal daughter and perfect role model to the twin Lina and Lana , my half siblings is laughable. who could have imagined?

I've sent those principles to hell now. Initially I had remorse, but now, I simply don't care.

I've also stopped doing those high and mighty things everyone thinks need to be done.

Like setting goals, reading books, accomplishing great things and hearing the applauses of people who really don't care.

It's like a circle and you know how boring circles can be.

So, why go hard when life will go harder? I told you he's just a casanova, you'll only get laid.

Again, deep down, I don't know if you should believe all I've said .

Already told you my mind is the most messed up right? I feel they're partial truths.

Trust me, I'm not a liar but I've heard people call me that a couple of times.

I'm never really sure of a lot going on with me and I feel anything they call me is justified. I stopped picking offense long time ago.

You see, rgardless of life's antics, some times, I find him quite seductive. He's cute, I kid you not.

He flashes the most beautiful smiles and have the most scintilating things to say.

Two can play right? Most times, I find myself on his bed yet again.

Honestly, I think I'm used to getting laid by him that deep down I want to try again and again.

Maybe I'm used to the organismic pain.

What's the worst that could happen?

I know.

Probably watch my world crumble yet again.

But who cares? I'm tired but maybe I'm used to trying now.

My friend Betty, who lives down Tropeville, would always say, "Cathy, are you sure you can pilot your life? I think you should reconsider going back to church. You've become more messier than I last saw you."

But church?

The name is repulsive to think it used to be a huge part of my life. I wish she could just stop mentioning it.

I guess I'll have to tell you my church story tomorrow. Do you mind listening? Nevermind, I'm still gon' tell you anyways.

But Betty, she's the only friend from church who stayed and sometimes I honestly wish she left too.

"Lucien, let's get a divorce," I said in a peremptory tone that was long overdue, the most decisive farewell to this absurd marriage. We had been married for exactly three years-three years that, for me, were filled with nothing but endless loneliness and torment. For three years, the husband who should have stood by my side through every storm, Lucien Sullivan, had completely disappeared from my life as if he had never existed. He vanished without a trace, leaving me alone to endure this empty, desolate marriage. Today, I finally received his message: "I'm back. Come pick me up at the airport." When I read his words, my heart leapt with joy, and I raced to the airport, thinking that he finally understood my love and was coming back to me. But his cruelty was far worse than I could have ever imagined-he was accompanied by a pregnant woman, and that woman was Carla, my closest and most trusted friend. In that moment, all of my previous excitement, all my hope, and all of our shared laughter and tears turned into the sharpest of daggers, stabbing into my heart and leaving me gasping for air. Now, all I want is to escape from this place that has left me so broken-to lick my wounds in solitude. Even if these wounds will remain with me for the rest of my life, I refuse to have anything to do with him ever again. He should know that it was his own hand that trampled our love underfoot, that his coldness and betrayal created this irreparable situation. But when he heard those words, he desperately clung to this broken, crumbling marriage, unwilling to let it end-almost as though doing so could rewind time and return everything to how it used to be. "Aurora, come back. I regret everything!" Regret? Those simple words stirred no emotion in me-only endless sadness and fury. My heart let out a frantic, desperate scream: It's too late for any of this!
