'' hhmmmm '' my eyelids and body felt so heavy. It was morning already and I didn't want to get up. The bed felt so soft and Comfortable. I wanted to continue my sleep. When my phone began to ring. '' arrr '' I let out in frustration. Stretching my hand to reach for the phone on my bedside table. I noticed something. The place was empty Wait... Realization hit me, this was not my bed. It carried a different smell. It felt too comfortable to be my bed. Where am I? I turned my head and squinted my eyes against the sunlight that was pouring in through a c***k in the curtain. I lifted my head and studied the room. Obviously, this was not my room. I sat up to study the room properly and my body ached and felt heavy. What happened and where am I? Trying hard to remember as I studied the room. I seemed to be in a luxurious hotel room and it was well decorated. It felt warm and welcoming. It then occurred to me that my phone was still ringing. I turned to my left and grabbed my phone from the cabin, by the bedside. It was Olivia calling. I picked up the call and instantly '' Hello, Hello, Elena is than you? '' worried tone '' yeah...'' feeling totally drained ''Oh thank goodness '' instantly relived '' Hey '' she yelled and I flinched in shock '' what is your problem.. why have you not been picking up your calls, Where are you? '' '' ammm '' looking around '' in a hotel room '' '' what are you doing in a hotel room? '' '' I honestly don't know '' trying hard to think '' you called me drunk yesterday and ended the call so suddenly. After that you didn't pick up your call... what happened at the party '' Just then it hit me. I got a flashback to last night and my heart began to ache again '' oh... '' In a low tone '' what do you mean oh? '' '' I will talk to you when I get back '' ''Well hurry up... Mother is worried '' she scolded ''Mother came over '' '' yes she did.. she wants to celebrate your scholarship '' '' Scholarship? ''Too tired to be surprised. '' I got in? '' '' Yes.. and they will be expecting you in a week so come home tell talk '' she ended the call. I put my phone to the side. Thinking about what happened last night after the party, I couldn't remember a thing. How much did I drink? I dropped my head in frustration only to notice that I was naked and my eyes fell wide open. I spotted my clothes, neatly folded by the edge of the bed and I noticed some fresh clothes by the side. With my eyes closed I spread my legs a little to confirm my worst suspicion. It ached there. That familiar ache but just that this time, it was worse. '' f**k '' I whispered. Last night, I went all the way with a man I do not know and I do not remember. I went under the blanket to check, noticing that I was still dripping wet from the session last night. And from the warm wetness of my love honey, I realized that I must have come quite a lot last night. Whoever I had s*x with last night, did a fine job '' Oh Lord '' I got out of the blanket. I did the one thing I don't usually do and my body was satisfied and even craved for more. Who was this person and what did he do to me to make me this way? I moaned softly as I tried to get off the bed then my eyes spotted an envelope on the cabin. Wait did I just get paid? Panicking, I reached for the envelope, opened it and took out a document and my heart dropped at the sight of it. A marriage certificate '' Holly s**t '' Shocked and speechless. How much did this person and I drink that we got our marriage registered '' no, no, no, no ''the name on the certificate says, Alexander Stanislav Wilson. The name sounded familiar. I couldn't remember where I heard the name before. I sat down and checked the envelope again, taking out a note. It says. Sorry, I couldn't wait till you got up. I will be away on a one-month business trip. Call me. He put his phone number, email and home address. Oh lord.. what do I do? Should I call him, what kind of person is he anyway? I quickly got dressed. Ignoring the fresh clothes that he kept for me because I found them so expensive and I left the hotel with the envelope. Thinking deeply about what to do when I get home. Should I tell my mum about this? No, she would have a heart attack if she heard about this. I will talk to Olivia about this, she will know what to do. I can't believe the night I got dumped by my boyfriend, got into a one-night stand and got married. Can my life get any more f****d up... My name is Elena Rose. Rose is my mother's name. I use her name because I never got to meet my father. My parent met in college and my mother got pregnant for me. His family did not accept my mother because of her poor background and my father abandoned my mother to raise me alone so she is my only family and the one I love the most. And my biggest dream is to make her proud. But things were beginning to get messy. I got dumped for the same reason as my mum. Poor social status and even worse. I am married to a man I do not know. I have to fix this mess without my mother finding out about it. I arrived at my apartment to see my mother and Olivia preparing breakfast. My mother carried a smile as she worked. And they both congratulated me. As we had a big breakfast and while we were halfway through eating, my mother handed me an envelope. What with me and envelopes today? I panicked as I instantly remembered my marriage certificate. I opened the envelope my mother gave me, to cash. '' that is 200 hundred dollars '' she smiled ''What there? '' shocked '' Mum.. why are you giving me this?'' trying to pass it back to her but she turned it down. '' Mum!! '' '' Use it to prepare for your travel '' '' Mum.. I am too old for this '' I whined '' I'm the one who should be giving you money '' '' Hey '' she yelled and I flinched in shock '' You are my child... I give you money if I want to '' '' Oh.. mother '' Olivia moved her chair closer to her and rested her head on her shoulder, She gently patted her hand '' Mother.. don't mind this ungrateful daughter of yours... she doesn't know how to say thank you '' '' hey '' I scolded Olivia '' what '' she rolled her eyes in a playful manner '' hey you... Don't yell at her.. she is my beloved daughter you know '' I watch my mother pat her hair gently '' good girl '' she says '' hey you... Go to your mother.. and leave mine alone '' suddenly we heard a knock on the door. '' Who is it?'' I asked Olivia curiously '' I think it's my mum, I told her about the good news '' She got up and made her way for the door while I smiled. What is more amazing than having a rich aunty who always got you back '' oh my.. Where is my baby '' she calls out to me the moment the door is opened and walks to the dining. I quickly stood up and took her in for a hug. And that was how I went to London to finish my studies the next week. But before then I sent an email to my supposed to-be husband, telling him to forget about what happened that night since we both made a mistake and get rid of the marriage certificate. But if he is still not comfortable with the matter. I would be back in two years and we can file for a divorce. Since that is the only option we have. I didn't get any response from the man and I kept hoping he agreed with Olivia and advised me not to stress too much about the matter and just focus on myself and getting over Viktor. I can settle the marriage once I return. She wasn't happy about what Viktor did and was about to raise an issue but I calmed her down thank goodness. I agree with Olivia. There was no time to worry about men, it was time to make something of myself. Make a name for myself.
