Tears continued escaping my viridescent eyes as I gazed down at my clenched hands remaining in my lap; feeling absolutely downhearted. I have been crying for about two hours now locked in my room, but I guess I'm finally starting to calm down.
Earlier today I went on a date with a guy in the city and for once I thought that I had finally met a man who could have been my potential future partner, but... He admitted to being married at the end of our date. I didn't know how to react or if I should have even believed him... Was it just an excuse so he didn't have to see me anymore?
It feels hopeless. All I want more than anything is to genuinely fall in love with a man and be married someday, to find my soulmate, but all the men I have dated have all betrayed me in an endless amount of ways. I don't get why guys don't seem to believe me when I tell them that I want a relationship or that they seem scared when I tell them that I want something serious, a commitment... I don't understand what's wrong with me? Am I getting too old? Do they just see me as only a pretty face? Is it...the way I dress?
Frowning, I arose from my pink chair and looked at my reflection in the mirror, inspecting my outfit. Ruby red dress, tiny sky blue jacket, heels... Does my apparel really give off the wrong impression to men?
I've had thoughts about changing my wardrobe to what isn't really my style, but I like the way I dress and don't want to change myself just so someone will like me romantically. I don't want to settle, but... At this point, it just feels like I won't find anybody with good intentions no matter what I do.
Will I ever find love?
"Muffy! We have a new arrival outside!" I suddenly heard my boss Griffin loudly call from outside the door.
My emerald eyes grew wide at recalling hearing a rumor that someone was going to take over that old farm today with that...bushy-eyebrowed guy?
A flicker of hope then gleamed across my eyes.
Could this be...?
Author Note: I literally thought of this story tonight while taking a shower and just had to write it out. xD I always was intrigued by Muffy's character and can relate to her in many ways. I'll always have a soft spot for her. I wanted to write way more for this chapter but I have work in the morning, soooo yeah. But I will try to update when I can. Please tell me what you think by reviewing. :) I'm really excited to write this story. Thanks!:D
