Zara's Pov
I stood rooted close to the large window, staring at the beautiful landscape ahead. My mind was racing with different possible events, hows, and whats.
"I...I just---"
"You just what, Zen? I don't want to know. Just leave. I need a minute to gather my thoughts and settle in," I stated firmly, moving to the side of the bed and taking a seat.
He didn't utter a word as he stood a distance from me. I could feel his hard stare drilling holes in the back of my head.
After a while, he finally leaves, slamming the door shut. He was angry.
As soon as he left, a single tear dropped from my eyes and rolled down my cheeks, my heart pounding hard in my chest with my breathing ragged.
Everything felt so overwhelming: the marriage, the contract, the fear of losing my license, and also having to deal with him even though a part of me might be into him.
