Entry for mini task for the Glimpse Book Society
(Single paragraph of seven sentences portraying emotions of happiness, sadness, anger and love.)

Being wed to the only man you've ever been with is probably the next best thing that could ever happen to you, the first being able to find a person to love. So I walk out of the car, into the house that I'll be calling home from now on, my-can you believe it-husband lovingly brings me to his bedroom door, clinging to my hands like his life depends on it. I glide through the creaking wooden floors, ecstatic to have finally had the wedding I wanted, hopefulness brimming ripe in my bosom at the marriage I'm about to have. That's when I see the bed, flaunting it's sinful white covers, with rose petals spread over it like little specks of evil, laying in wait for the blood of my innocence, the one that'd been slaughtered by the pathetic excuse of a man holding my hand. This is not a marriage. This is the reminiscence of that fateful night when my screams were muffled by the unwelcome mouth and my body numbed by the torturous rhythm. My silent screams had been silenced ever since, the slowly cracking bones in my hand being the sole witness to the monster who robbed me of the child in me.
