Not All Mistakes Are Forgiven

Sophie opened her eyes to see a beautiful young lady sitting on a chair staring at her own reflection. There she saw a beautiful girl. Her skin was as white as snow and glowed so beautifully and was so clear that it couldn’t even be compared to the most expensive diamonds in the capital. Her emerald green eyes that were supposed to be shinning their brighter where lifeless. And last but not least, her jet black hair. The one thing she hated the most about herself as it led her to be in the position she is in.

I once fell in love with a man that she truly avoided all red flags. Just a mere look at her from him would her blush. The man I was going to marry, KingAlexander De’mar. A month before our wedding, I went to surprise my fiance with a gift that I spent a lot of time and money on. I bought him an ancient sword that had been blessed by the first Pope. I took many months trying to find this artifact just for the mere thought that it might please him. As I run to the King’s office just about to knock on the door I hear a women’s voice inside. I was surprised to say the least because no woman except the me, his fiancé was allowed to go inside the office. I tried to overhear their conversation through the door.

“Your Higness when are you going to dump that stupid fiancé of yours?” the strange woman said.

“The time will come my dear. That stupid fool hasn’t even realized that I am cheating on her!” He exclaimed.

*Sophie clenched her fists*

“ It’s her fault for being born with that black hair. If only the temple hadn’t received that Oracle saying that a girl with black hair will bring great prosperity and fortune to the kingdom. What nonsense is that. That girl can’t even relize her own fiancé is cheating on her how can she bring fortune.” Said the strange woman.

They both laughed their hearts out. I was bursting into tears already. I was in so much pain. It hurt me so much that it was hurting physically. I couldn’t believe it. They all used me. I peeped through the door with tears all over her face to see who the strange woman was. What she saw next was so heartbreaking.

It was her own best friend, Maria. She couldn’t believe it. My fiancé had already broken my heart, now the remaining pieces were shattered even more.

We had been through the bad and good together. When Maria’s parents died in an accident her family took her in. They had been to parties, schools, and even couldn’t go a hour without seeing each other when they were little. I thought, “Where did it go wrong?”

I had just realized. Maria was jealous of her. Everything was adding up. Her parents didn’t survive the assasination attempt and hers being alive caused her to bear hatred against me. She probably thought we were the reason her parents died. All the times when Maria hung out with her bullies were also used to manipulate them into hating her. She spread those rumors. She was just acting as my best friend.

I made a promise to herself. I will make them pay. Even if they begged on her feet to not kill them, I won’t listen to a thing.

Her heart at that moment was beyond repair.
