#Chapter3

Sasha felt lightheaded and oozing in alcohol, she decided to just sit on her side and listen to them sing, maybe she can stop thinking for a while /"it's Sasha's turn now/" she heard and opened her eyes to see her friends all looking at her expectantly, one second she wanted to refuse but then why not? She smiled and stood up, she staggered to the CD library and selected her music, she staggered back to her seat and took the microphone from Marilyn just as Celine Dion water from the moon began to play.

Her friends looked at her surprised at her choice of music but she only smiled and brought the microphone to her lips and sang along.

/"I've looked everywhere I can

Just to find a clue

Oh to get to you

And make you want me

And I've run circles around the sun

Chasin' after you

Oh but it's no use

Can't you see that I'm going out of my mind

Trying to find a way to get through to you

Oh you don't know how hard I try

And I try and I try

What do I gotta do?

Do I gotta get water from the moon?

Is that what I gotta do

To make you love me, make you love me?

Do I gotta turn the sand into the sea?

Is that what you want from me?

I've done everything that I can do

But get water from the moon.../"

Her voice was melodious but it was filled with sorrow and sadness. A tear slipped from her closed eyes and watching her so immerse in the song brought tears to her friend's eyes.

/"Love me, how do I make you love me?

How do I make you see that I'm going out of my mind

I try, and I try, and I try

Do I gotta get water from the moon?

Baby is that what I gotta do

To make you love me, make you love me?

Do I gotta turn the sand into the sea

Is that what you want from me

I've done everything that I can do

But get water from the, water from the moon

Baby, love me baby, love me, yeah

I've done everything

You've got to love me baby

I've done everything, oh.../"

The music slowly died off and everywhere was silent, Sasha, finally has broken down, even though she didn't want to and certainty not in the presence of her friends but one can't just control their emotion. She sniffed and looked at them with her teary eyes, she smiled faintly /"I'm...I'm sorry...about that./"

They walked closer to her then, Janet and Marilyn sitting at both of her sides, Agatha looming over and Agnes at her feet /"you can always talk to us./"

Sasha sniffed /"nothing was like I made it to be/" she looked at each of their faces /"Michael and I aren't happily married./"

/"What?/" The ladies were shocked.

Sasha nodded and sniffed /"our wedding night, wasn't like I told you. I made it up/" she heaved a sigh /"Michael didn't touch me that night, rather he gave me three rules./"

/"Rules? On your wedding night?/" Agatha asked bewildered, well not just her.

Sasha gave a bitter low chuckle /"don't talk to me, don't touch me, stay out of my business/" she recited the rules as if it was some priceless treasure.

/"What in the world!/" All her friends shouted at once /"you..you...you.../" None of them could finish their sentences.

/"Everything was just a false, he protects me outside but once inside/" she shook her head bitterly /"we are complete strangers./"

/"But why would Michael do that?/" Agnes found her voice and asked.

/"I don't know. But one day I was speaking with his mom. He had traveled out of the country without telling me and his mom had somehow found out/" she looked at them /"that day she picked me up from the office/" they all nodded, remembering how envious they had been of her that day /"though before that day, something had happened. He had came home one night drugged, I don't know by who but that night, we were together, the drug took effect on him and he approached me. I didn't push him away, I willingly let him/" she sighed /"He woke up the next day and was so angry.../" She broke off.

/"Hey/" Janet stroked her back /"there, is alright./"

/"Since then he stopped talking to me at all, so he had traveled and his mom invited me to spend the afternoon with her. That day, she told me that there is a girl he was so madly in love with, even though it's been years, that he still loves her./"

/"Damn!/" Exclaimed Agatha.

/"I don't know, maybe it's because of the night, maybe because he has been keeping himself for her and I took it away, I just can't tell but ever since that day, Michael never talked to me again. It went on like that till he had an accident. Although he spoked to me the night he woke up but it was just to ask me what happened to his legs and the next I know, he walked me out. When I offered to take care of him the day he was discharged, he insisted for a nurse. Although his mother told me that day we went out for lunch that I'm free to divorce him but I told her I can do it. I thought I could/" she started sobbing again.

/"There, there, it's okay. It's okay, you have us./"
