IAMLARRAINE

Every fairytale has its ending. And in every ending, there's a wedding, and uh, a baby. But mine was different, it begins with how everything ends. A wedding. My name is Bryan. And I met the most beautiful, graceful and enamoring woman with exquisitely shaped features I have ever seen in my entire life. Just like how piercing and fiercely her eyes are, my mind was easily subdued, my heart instantly surrendered and simply pointed her. But what makes her contrastive is her title. She's called the "TIGER WOMAN OF ASIA". She's not a mafia member nor justice seeker but rather the most successful businesswoman on her young age in leading and expanding their prestigious and well-known corporation around the world. But I’m just a young man who never had a girlfriend, was new to his newly founded restaurant and thought that his life was meant for his dreams alone. And my fate got entangled with her when she proposed---- no, ordered me to marry her. For real. But the moment our baby was brought into this world, she left it in my care and vanished without a farewell. Now, how can I face a new chapter of my life being a newbie father of this adorable baby girl, a husband to a cold-hearted and dominant woman, stranger to a new and whole different lifestyle, and prisoner of family rules in this luxurious and enormous villa? Does the wedding ring symbolize only as an ownership of a claimant or is it beyond that line that none of us have ever crossed before?

Her World Will Become Two. The yesterday that shapes the present and the present that will predict her future.

Alice is the author of an ongoing book, “One Shall Reign”, a story that revolves around the four princes who will struggle to prove their worth as the sole Emperor of Apeiron Imperium Empire without knowing the real successor. However, known for her absurd and lame plots, tends to favor only the first two princes and the youngest with optimistic traits while punishes the notorious third prince with pouring misfortunes who will be the inhumane and cold-blooded antagonist of the story. But unexpectedly, the unfinished book she’s eagerly writing gobble her up and took her to the realm of her own creation. And what she has unforeseen, were the eyes of frightened individuals in strange clothes watching in horror and the blazing sword pointed at her neck mercilessly in an inch as the man with striking beauty both in appearance and dressing growls, “I have no care if you are a Saint blessed by Gods nor a ruler with thousands of men but if you cross this distance with the length of my sword then I have no space to spare.” His sparkling dusty-white hair is as pure as the freshly bloomed Camellia flower trapped in the middle of a Volcanic eruption but at the same time cold as the cruelty of a muddy ice frost. The crimson red eyes staring down at her, are burning but heavy and dark as the buried stories of heroes’ blood slaughtered in a snow-clad battlefield that further intensify his exquisitely shaped facial features to its utmost glory. Beyond a shadow of a doubt, he’s the ultimate definition of the art of human beauty and warrior sculpture carved to perfection by thousands of proficient artists that took years to hone. By then, she has realized that those lines were referred to the one and only neglected character of the tale, Tristesse, the bride-became-wife-now of the beastly and brutal villain of her story, the third prince. And she became who she didn’t expect… unexpectedly.

Chelsea’s life has never been better and her days have never been colorful when her wish was granted. It is a simple dream that any girl already has except for her. And that’s to have a beautiful, princess-like and perfect hair. From there, her fantasy turned into reality and felt belonged in this world. She felt loved like she never experienced before. But every princess in a fairytale needs to be back to who they are.

But what if her dreams ended and turned into nightmares because of her? A stupid mistake, a mistake she wants to wipe away. As her world starts to darken and crumble, she hid her beautiful and inner self inside of indestructible walls surrounding her dark and wretched heart, letting her haunted old memories and fears reign back again in her life, just to escape the pain she felt. But life is a game played by luck, fate and chance for a story to go on which she underestimates. Fate had yet to prove in her story and now its turn to roll the dice. It’s time to reveal and bring out the real color of her life, concealed radiance, secret passages, lessons yet to be learned and most importantly, friendship that might last forever. And it will all start in Just a Simple Hello.
