When love detroys
They say love makes you strong. But what we are also not told is that the same love can destroy the soul to the last degree.
Tatiana will have to learn all this because of her love for Muriel. The one she's in love with seems to be the same one who still loves other girls like her, but why?
It is said that there is a reason that causes each drop of rain to fall in a very precise place on the earth. Maybe Tatiana's was to heal Muriel's sentimental wounds.
How can she do it? We have no idea, but love succeeds where all else fails.
Muriel, Muriel... It is this name that keeps Tatiana awake. Again, the name Tatiana's family does not want to hear at all.
Muriel is the name that made a whole bunch of young girls cry. But above all, it is the name of the one who got Tatiana to conquer the heart.
"Good... Let's take a good look at Muriel before talking about Tatiana"
*6 years rather*
Love can turn a heart into a stone, something that young Muriel would have learned at the cost of the depression he will suffer.
- but we're barely 18, how can you think about marriage now.
- age is not what matters most in our relationship, but the love we feel for each other...
- but you're still a student and you don't even know how to support yourself...
- yes I know my heart, but I plan to drop out of school and find myself a little job that can allow us to have food and pay the rent..
- you are right, the rest will come later...
Love has made a young little adult so blind that he thinks he can no longer continue with his studies. all he has in mind now is to marry young Anaïs.
Anaïs is a young lady of 17 years old. and since she was 14, she has been living in great love with Muriel.
Everything was going so well until that famous day when the decision that will destroy the lives of the two young lovers will be taken by Anaïs' dad.
It was a night like any other. Anaïs ate quietly with her parents and her two little sisters. and like in their family, dinner time was the time that brought all the family members together. so take advantage of this moment to announce the big news.
The dad was about to say tonight was some of the biggest news for the family.
- pass me the sauce please...
- thanks Mom...
Between the usual little discussions at the table, there was a moment which was also reserved for the announcement of the big news.
You could see everyone's eyes wandering around. everyone wondering what the father was going to announce to them as news. the suspense ended when the father opened his mouth and began to speak.
- children, your mother and I are looking forward to seeing you grow up. this is a source of pride for all parents. and as they grow up, the girls are called upon to leave their parents' house for another family...
And Anaïs, who was the eldest of all, even took a glass of water to calm down. without knowing why, she had the presentiment of being the one her father is talking about at the moment.
The father will continue with what he said:
- today, I am the happiest of dads to see the Clovis family asking for my dear little girl's hand...
The Clovis family? each of them wondered who this family was. she couldn't know since none of them actually knew this family. the dad has actually just given his daughter in marriage without even taking the time to ask her opinion.
Everything was already said when the eyes of Anaïs and her father were crossed.
- Father, you know very well that I love Muriel
- you are still young to understand many things and more specifically love. don't worry, you will find true love with your husband...
- but I don't even know him
- thank you don't know me when she married me. but is it as much as she was not happy in her home?
We will all wonder in which generation does Anaïs' father live. civilization has made us see its face and it is preferable to marry for love.
- you really have no idea what you are doing,Dad ...
Said the little young adult, very much in love with her boyfriend. her eyes were filled with tears that she will soon run down her cheeks. tears perhaps that had touched his mother, but the dad didn't want to understand anything. he always travels with his daughter like a little girl who had no concept of life. love had no meaning for youth, in the calculations of Anaïs' dad.
She wanted to continue talking with her father to make him understand what she really felt. but he was so sure of his decision that he will firmly pronounce this sentence:
- that's how it is and that's it. you're getting married, end of discussion.
Anaïs ran to her room to take refuge. you could see her mother and sisters running behind her. Hardly had she entered her room when she burst into tears.
- I'm so sorry my daughter, reality and that I have no say.
- but how can he give me a marriage without even asking my opinion?
- it is also his way of giving you a good future and giving you it in marriage...
- but my future lies with Muriel..
The mother understood what her daughter was going through right now because she herself had gone through the same thing. but she could not oppose her husband's decision. so all she could do was console and reassure her daughter.
- it's true that Muriel is a very promising young boy and you love each other very much. but you must also understand that you are almost the same age. He's not ready to get married yet...
- but if .. he even spoke to me about marriage yesterday very close.
- talking about marriage and being ready to get married are two totally different things my daughter. you are too young to understand this...
- but I'm the one to get married so it's up to me to choose who I'm going to marry. it's a right that dad must not take away from me.
- it doesn't take away any rights from you my darling, you mustn't see things like that...
Despite her mother's efforts to console her and make her understand things differently, it was still without result and the pain was still great. she couldn't imagine for a moment living without the love of her life, Muriel.
"the day after"
As usual, Muriel had come to see her at school. and since the night, she wondered how she was going to tell her the news.
Being the eldest in the family, she did not want to disobey her parents in any way. but on the other side, there was her love that she wanted to live with all her heart.
- I called you in vain on your phone yesterday but you didn't pick up...
- I'm sorry, but I fell asleep quickly...
- stop lying a bit, we both know you're not sleeping at this hour...
- every day is not the same. and I know that even if it was sleep that took you, you were going to give yourself the time to leave me a message...
She lowered her head directly, as if hiding something from the love of her life. her eyes were calm with tears.
- please look at me and tell me what's wrong...
- Well don't worry. but i just want you to promise me something...
- you know very well that I would promise you everything you want...
She then took both hands of her love, before staring directly into his eyes, then she began to speak:
- promise me that no matter what happens you will never doubt my love for you and everything we shared...
- I knew something was wrong. please tell me what's wrong...
- and I'm begging you, promise me...
- I promise you...
He didn't fully know what happened, but he wasn't so blind to suspect that there was something wrong.
There were a thousand and one questions in his head.
He was all devastated when he got home. And the fact of going directly to his room just when he came back from school could only justify that.
A mother is a mother. and even if Anaïs' mother couldn't find concrete words to comfort her, Muriel's was doing her best.
- can you please open the door for me?
Discouraged, he gets up from his bed, towards the door to open.
- you've been locked here all alone since you came home from school. tell me please, what's wrong?
Muriel's mother was her main confidant. he wasn't hiding anything from her about his life no matter what he had done.
- today I went to see Anaïs in her school. She wasn't doing well at all and that, I could see...
- I see a little. did you try to talk to him about it i mean did you ask him directly what was wrong?
- yes, and that's what really worries me. I could see that she was trying to hold herself back so as not to cry in front of me. mom, I've never seen him in this state it really worries me.
- don't worry, maybe she doesn't want to talk to you about it right now, but she will eventually. a woman in love can never hide anything from her love. I know very well what I'm talking about... she's just not ready to talk to you about it right now, that's why you shouldn't force her to tell you something. show her that you are always there for her...
The mother just said that these are little teenage crises that will just pass to the little girl. no one could doubt at that moment that Anaïs' father wanted to give her a forced marriage.
This situation will last about a week. but the two families had already set a date for the wedding.
A date that Anaïs' dad would never miss for anything in the world. moreover, he is going to tell her this evening.
Anaïs had just arrived from school. And since morale was also low and the situation was too tense at home, Anaïs always locked herself in her room as soon as she came home from school. So her mother will look for her in her room, and she will start talking to her:
- your father told me to tell you the news. I'm going straight there because I know there's no better way to tell you...
- so go straight to the point instead of beating around the bush. the wedding date has been decided, right?
- I'm really sorry that things happened like this.. but you mustn't get it into your head that your father and I don't love you...
- you have already made your decision, that's all that matters. I'm not going to disobey you, but every time you see me unhappy, don't forget that you're the only ones responsible...
Seeing her daughter say that did not at all leave the mother indifferent to the facts. her eyes even filled with tears when she left her daughter's room.
It was over, the wedding date was already decided and preparations were underway.
Anaïs was certainly very afraid to say that Muriel. knowing well how much Muriel loved him, she stayed figuring out how to tell him until the wedding date was really close.
For her part, Muriel continued to suspect that something was going on and that her darling did not want to tell her.
This continued until the day before Anaïs' wedding. and it is tonight that she will finally make the decision to inform him. the marriage was to be celebrated in the family of her husband. suddenly she and all her family had to travel to go to the country where her beautiful family was.
She picked up the phone and called her lover.
- hi...
- how are you doing ? mom made some cakes again that you love so much I can take them to school today I can bring them to you tomorrow at school if you want...
- I would love to... but I'm afraid it's not possible
- how will it not be possible anymore? won't you be at school tomorrow? you are sick...?
She takes a short moment of silence before suggesting that they meet just in front of their house...
- can you meet me in front of our house just in a quarter of an hour?
Muriel immediately understood that there was a situation that was wrong.
And as well liked had asked him, he respected the appointment.
With the help of her mother and little sisters, Anaïs was able to leave the house to go and see her lover one last time.
She was already there when he arrived.
- you really scared me and I even thought you were hospitalized...
She was looking at him like it was the very last time she was going to see him in her life.
- but what is really happening? You've been behaving very strangely lately...
- there is no better way to tell you so I will do it in the most normal and natural way possible....
You could read the fear on Muriel's face.
- I'm getting married tomorrow...
Muriel remained motionless for a few seconds, before she could put in a single word.
He saw his whole dream go up in smoke. he was so devastated that he didn't want to talk...
- tell me something please. I know we had a program, but my father decided otherwise and he even took the dowry with another person. I love you and you know it. you are and will remain the love of my life until my last breath. but I really don't know how to stand up to my parents by disobeying them. I am the eldest in my family and I have to show a good example to my juniors.
- and the two of us, what do you do with it?
- I'm really sorry, maybe it was our fate. no one can escape his destiny and you know it very well...
- maybe you're right. but every time you see me unhappy, remember what you did...
The wound was double-edged. Muriel saw Anaïs who had betrayed her and Anaïs who was getting married just so as not to disobey.
Muriel had loved Anaïs beyond humanity. what he felt for the young lady was not just love, but it was passion.
A passion that he will nurture for years and years. and the wound grew deeper every day. the pain had invaded his whole heart so that there was no longer any place for love.
This love, which was then supposed to be the most beautiful thing in his life, was the one that transformed young Muriel into a real sentimental monster.
And this sentimental watch is the one of which Tatiana will fall in love. And his fight for love started ...
*in the present*
Tatiana continues with her university studies in Senegal. and after 3 years of study, she has just returned home.
A lover of music, she would also like to take part in the retreat for musicians in her country. this seminar was organized by a small association of musicians from their country. and as luck would have it, this activity was led by Muriel.
Today is the first evening so the beginning of the activities. the participants had just settled in and everyone was going to the canteen to eat.
The organization was made in such a way that everyone was mixed without exception. and like a coincidence too, Tatiana just ended up on the table with 3 other people, because the tables were made for 5 people.
- Well... Since we're supposed to eat together, so as long as we know each other's names. I'm Ariadne
- I'm Muriel...
- I'm Audrey
- Aufiel
All four people had finished introducing themselves. and it was now around Tatiana. she was a little shy and also in her corner. she even had her head down on her phone when her daughter immediately came back among the others by Muriel's voice:
- can Miss phone now give us her first name..
He said that with a laugh. something that even upset Tatiana a little at first. but she had been offended in a good way. it could even be seen in the look she exchanged with Muriel. let's say it was the beginning of their story without the two knowing it.
- I am Tatyana...
- pretty name..
- thank you, sir who wants to control everything. with your permission of course, yeah I went back into my phone. in there at least there are people who...
It was a bit warm on their table. although that was kind of the point of getting people together on the table so he could eat. it would also be a question of forging links between the participants. something that had taken on its full meaning with Tatiana and Muriel. it wasn't the only place or activity that would bring them together. lots of other activities go to meetings in the same group test a component necessarily that he shares a lot of moments together during his activities.
They were getting closer and closer every day. little moments that made or still obliges them and more time with each other.
Especially times like this. in the large seminar room, the participants had just been divided into small rehearsal groups. and again chance, one can always call it fate, had played its turn. the two ended up in the same group. Casually the two had become closer than one might think. he is with something that McDo all attracted them to define as love but things approached it very well.
- I wonder why it always seems like joining the house that I'm starting to really like meeting people...
- You're not the only one. I've met so many people I've grown attached to that I could live here the rest of my life...
- we could well visit each other, or even call each other. Phones are made for that.
- and for that it is necessary that we exchange the numbers
- Give me your number please, if you don't mind...
And yes the two lucky guys to change the numbers. numbers that will be useful for something. it will be on this number that our two lovebirds are going to exchange stuff. this number will receive the messages of separation and reconciliation, moments of sharing and divisions.
The retreat was only to last a week. and as they say everything has an end. and the end of the retreat was this morning. everyone had to go home. and those who came from the same city could take the same bus for the return. and now the two found themselves on the same bus again.
All the close friends could well notice that there was something going on between them.
On the other hand, Muriel's friends did not want to go too far into the story because they knew that she was not his only retirement conquest.
And yes we weren't going to skip that part either. Tatiana wasn't the only girl who thought she had an affair with Muriel.
There was also Mauricia who had been in love with Muriel for 4 years already. and his relationship with Muriel was a bit complicated. they are never the same and yet they are never together either. Something crazy, but also true.
She had met Muriel during an activity too. She even knew his entire family and introduced herself as his girlfriend. Except that the latter never commented on their relationship.
How this can be done, we will wonder. but how do you say she loves with all her heart.
She was always ready to do anything to lead to the heart of those who weren't too fond of her. As a result, she was the recognized rival of all Muriel's conquests. And more specifically, that of Tatatiana.
Meanwhile, there were also other girls. It was as if he was looking for all the characteristics of Anaïs, the one for whom his heart had really beaten.
After a few hours of travel, the kisses finally arrived, we could see everyone going down. and everyone takes a taxi to go home after a good time of conviviality together.
- I'll call you a taxi...
- with pleasure, but I have to go to the second sector...
He was in very opposite sectors. but it wasn't something that was going to stop Muriel from going there the very night they arrived.
He called the taxi and even paid for Tatiana's transport. in the meantime he had said goodbye to Mauricia. how did he manage to reassure them all, it's the same question that everyone was asking about him. and at the same time, everyone wondered he is capable of taking her heart and winning her true love. because unlike the girls who loved him, he didn't love anyone.
Tatiana finally arrived home. she has just complained about a good shower, after which she will of course want to rest.
And as you might expect, her phone starts ringing.
Just by looking at the number that had appeared on the screen and the smile that appeared on his face, one could directly understand that it was the nice and gentleman Muriel.
And yes, on his side too he had arrived safely at home. local now he had put his stuff in the room and it was also taken a good shower. and like any man in love, he wanted to make a quick phone call with his darling to find out if she had arrived safely.
- I hope my phone likes to arrive at home...
- and I can see that there is no one who has not always complicated is no longer so retired so you will have to call me by my own first name..
- please, I didn't call you to argue with you again, I just want to know if you arrived safely...
- yes... and I even just took a good shower
- let me guess the rest, you are about to answer the call of your bed...
- and how did you know?
- you just have to analyze well to understand that you are a spoiled little girl...
- first I was Miss Telephone and now I'm the spoiled little girl. go ahead and don't stop. you will have to empty your little nickname suitcase...
- and that's it I managed to annoy you for tonight. I'll let you rest now....
- that's it, keep bragging about a victory that's not for you....
- your voice is too cute when you get angry, you knew that. Ok... rest well and above all don't dream of me.
- a dream in which you find yourself can no longer be called anything but it is a nightmare...
- as you wish, have beautiful nightmares...
The two were just smiling behind their screens.
*3 hours later*
- Tatiana, it's time to wake up otherwise you won't be able to sleep again at night.
- okay mom I'm so exhausted that I liked to continue for the night..
- Oh no, you'll have to wake up even if it's to take a little walk outside and after coming back we'll have dinner and you can go back to bed.
It was his mother who pushed him to wake up because she thought it was too long in bed to ruin his sleep at night. maybe Muriel was right and Tatiana was a little girl soon. but it was the most logical thing because she was the only child of her parents.
She was pampered in every way. however the real reason her mother woke her up wasn't so she would go out or keep her from sleeping at night. but she was so eager to ask him questions.
Moms, they're really never going to change their lives. and when Tatiana was finally able to get up from her bed, you could see her mom's questions falling like raindrops to the earth.
- tell me, did the short stay happen?
Tatiana had understood directly in her mother's game. and with her sleepy voice while yawning, she will answer him:
- I can see that's the real reason why you woke me up...
The mother was caught in the act, she had no choice but to accept.
- you are right, so please tell me everything.
- there is not much to tell. we went to the retreat we did activities, I met some friends and now I'm back home.
- it's really good. and there are some of your friends who are here in the same city as you are not...
Mom still wasn't happy with the answer so she actually keeps asking the question until she can find satisfaction.
_ mom, it would be better if you asked the question you want directly.
- you yourself already know everything. you have not met who you like come and with whom the current passes...?
And when the mother asked this question, she was already far in her thinking. she remembers all those good times she had spent with Muriel. she hadn't forgotten either, he's the guy they've changed...
And on his face, a smile betrayed him. the smile already answered the mother's question but she wanted her daughter to answer her with concrete words.
She's still the only girl in the family. we are still not going to have fun with whom she will choose or who will decide to rub shoulders with her.
- just by looking at your face I know that you knew someone there. so, what is she hiding from me, the secretive little thing...
In reality, she hid nothing from her mother. suddenly she will begin to explain to him what had happened at the retreat.
- his name is Muriel...
- he has a very nice name...
- and this beauty does not concern her first name. he is so beautiful with everything you need... but you shouldn't imagine things. there are no concrete links yet...
- concrete things do not come overnight. it takes a while for you to get to know each other and build stronger ties...
- I know... but all this scares me a little.
- It's normal for you to be scared. put yourself quickly on Sage and you will see that the rest will be fine. when are you going to invite her home?
- Mom, we've only just met and you already want me to invite her to the house?
- you know very well that your father does not want you to meet someone who does not know. then it will just be necessary to invite even if it is for 5 minutes. I could cook for you...
_ we'll see, go get out of my room now you got what you wanted...
At Muriel, Mauricia had just launched a call: - How are you? - And it's a little ... - I see ... try to sleep ... - Wow ... You're talking to me it looks like a doctor who makes prescriptions to his patient - but you are my big sick ... He was really tired, and it could be even on his face. But this phone call came the morale and give him the same physical force. Something we will never understand with him, and with something that attracted him well at home Mauricia. Even if no one knew it, deeper from him something to tie him to this in love girl. - And you, you could rest even if it's a bit ... - Yes it goes a little. Mom wanted me to do some shopping for her - I see ... try a little to rest too. For example, you can sleep early ... - That's exactly what I plan to do. But I had to hear your voice before starting to sleep. Like that I could dream of you well ... - I'm in life it's my voice can use you sleep. Go rest now ... _ You do not kiss me? It begs with Muriel's love each time. - Rest well! Maybe in the muriel language, that meant kisses. And only Mauricia was able to understand that. And just barely hunting Mauricia, he had just taken the time to write a nice message in Tania: "Maybe you'll think it's early enough, but I just want to make you hear the cry of my heart. This little moment we had to share together allowed me to see in you the one I'm going to look for real. I do not want to use a thousand and a word, but I just want to use these three to tell you that I love you. Tania, I want you to share my life. I want you to do me all the honor of being part of your life ... Do not precipitate you to answer, you have all life in front of you. But I could not let one minute go before you tell you what I had on the heart. Rest well, kisses and I t '?.
