Episode 1
Cassandra Morgan took one of the papers that was thrown at her face and read it's contents with surprise. "DIVORCE AGREEMENT"
She looked up at her husband with a questioning gaze, and trembling voice, "What's this hubby?"
"I'm sure you can read? Then you should know that I'm telling you to leave, I'm no longer interested in you" the man standing before her shouted.
Cassandra was stunned for a moment, trying to process the news.
She continued, "I don't understand you, what are you saying all of a sudden?"
The man stood up from the chair with anger and spat passively, "I say leave my life Cassandra Morgan! I'm tired of seeing your face around my house. Is that too much to ask? Leave right now!"
She thought it was kind of prank or something since it's Valentine's day. Every Valentine's day, Obadiah Moretti, her husband always gives her an awesome give to symbolize his love for her.
She threw the paper aside and moved closer to hug him, "Happy Vals, Hubby, you don't have to....."
"Don't touch me witch!" Obadiah shouted immediately and pushed her aside.
Cassandra fell on her knees and cried as she pleaded, "Obadiah please, what has came over you all of a sudden? You said I'm your life, we are made for each other, our marriage is just two years so why are you showing me divorce papers? Today is Valentine's day let's enjoy today at least?"
"Who cares if today is Vals? I'm tired of your empty promises Cassandra, you have failed to give me what I needed the most which is a child, your fame is no longer useful to me anymore! Leave my house and marry your precious fame for all I care!" He spat back.
Cassandra cried the more at this harsh revelation "it's late and its also raining, where would I go? I have no family and my manager is out of Manchester?"
Obadiah sneered, "Ain't you a top star? I'm sure that alot of top Stars will be very happy to welcome you, so you can go to them. You can as well enjoy your Valentine at your fan meetings"
"But I'm not close to any of them. I only love you Obadiah, and I'm ready to give up my hard gotten money and fame if that's what you want, just don't chase me out tonight" she cried again.
Obadiah didn't mind her tears as he packed out her bags. "If you had done this earlier and gave me a child, I won't have done this. So leave!"
Cassandra cried the more as she was forced to sign the papers. With tears and sobs, she left the house. Obadiah forbade her from taking the car, she was casted to the empty streets.
She stood on her knees as she banged the gates sadly, "Obadiah!! Obadiah!!! Please open the door, I'll leave in the morning, I don't have anywhere to go now"
Obadiah didn't say anything again but closed the gate mercilessly.
"Obadiah!!!!"
She woke up. Cassandra Morgan rubbed her face and realized that she had fell asleep inside the bar and the terrible nightmare she always had about her divorce last year Valentine's day came back again.
The dimly lit nightclub pulsed with energy, the air thick with stench of alcohol and sweaty body. Neon lights danced across the walls casting a kaleidoscope of colors in the crowded dancefloor. It's Valentine's day, everyone on the dancefloor are either couples or dressed in white or red.
But to Cassandra, nothing is like Valentine, her own Valentine is full of unforgettable memories that she can't ignore.
She gulped the last drop of alcohol in the bottle before stumbling towards the restroom then stumbled back to the bar and continues dancing.
"Hey guys, it's CM (Cassandra Morgan)!!" Someone shouted. The partiers let out a joyous shout immediately and the music became louder.
Cassandra Morgan is an actress, once a top star but her career hit the rock after getting divorced from her husband last year Valentine's day and since then, she has been miserable beyond doubts.
Cassandra prefers going to clubs rather than staying alone since no producer calls her for any role again.
At 28, she was a divorced woman who was once married to Obadiah Moretti, a business man who ditched her for her cousin.
Every drink, she dedicates to her failed married life for she was constantly reminded of that Valentine's day anytime she's sober.
Cassandra doesn't care about her public image as she parties, all she wants is to forget that harsh memory. Cassandra Morgan lost her parents at the age of 10 in a ghastly motor accident which she had managed to survive.
Her uncle and his family became her only living family since then.
As she danced that night, memories were temporarily forgotten. The music blaring added to the already burning Inferno as she wouldn't remember her sorrows at that moment.
After sometime, everyone left the dancefloor since it's late. But Cassandra continue dancing like a mad woman.
Still dancing, she bumped into a hard surface that seems like someone's chest. She looked up at the man's face and saw her ex husband there.
Cassandra stood still for a while to stare at him but another thought stopped her "Obadiah can never be here" She regained herself before trying to continue dancing but his hand grabbed her back.
By now, Cassandra Morgan is very drowsy which prevented her from seeing the assailant's face clearly.
She yanked her hand away angrily, "Let go!"
The grip on her arm became stronger and brought her out of the bar forcefully.
Once outside, She struggled again throughout her drowsiness.
"Let go! Who are you?" She shouted again.
Before coming into the room, Obadiah had been sitting at the VIP with some bussines partners while drinking when he noticed her at the middle.
"Long time no see Cassandra, Happy Vals" he said.
She quipped almost immediately, "Why did you follow me?"
He composed himself and said with a cold tone dripping with sarcasm, "is this what later become of you?"
Cassandra looked at him with drowsy glare.
She gulped before replying rudely, "Obadiah please! Are you stalking me or what?"
The man was once again taken aback with her suaveness.
He grabbed her hand trying to make her stand on her feet since she was swaying unsteadily, but Cassandra pushed him with power and he felt back to the wall and hit his head.
"You'll regret this Cassandra" she heard him say. But not minding him, Cassandra stumbled back to the dancing floor.
Later that night, as she stumbled out of the bar, her mind reeling at Obadiah's sudden appearance. As she hailed a cab, her phone vibrated with an urgent message from her formidable cousin.
Cassandra ignored at first but after some time she decided to check it out, "You b***h! You have injured Obadiah come to City hospital immediately!"
Cassandra's heart sank with panic, another problem on Valentine's day. Immediately, she ordered the driver to drive to city hospital.
As the yellow cab drove through the busting red and white streets of Manchester towards the hospital, Cassandra's mind went back to the unfateful night that changed her life.
The night when Obadiah casted her out of the house in the rain just to bring in his girlfriend who was her cousin, Cassandra had left Obadiah's house, she was r***d by a group of bad boys who also took her n***d pictures and shared it online.
This was the beginning of the fall of her career.
"Cursed be to all Valentine's day because that day, is the day my life ended" She said to herself.
