"E...Engaged?"
I...I couldn't believe it. Now what was I meant to do...now...I'll never get to be with him. I looked at him in the eyes but, he didn't seem all that happy himself. When his mother walked in, his eyes suddenly saddened...why?
"Yes...I don't know who to though...the letter didn't give me a name, just a date and a place."
He doesn't know her? How can he be getting engaged to someone who doesn't even know? Although, I suppose anyone is better than Gabby...shame it wasn't me though.
"I don't want to be though Aphrodite..." He placed his hand on my cheek and moved close again. What was he doing? He moved his mouth up to my ear and whispered.
"I'm sorry...my love goddess."
I felt a blush appear on my cheeks when he said that. I'm a...Goddess to him...Or was it just because of my name. He was so sweet but now...He's going to have to spend less time with me to get ready for this wedding of his.
I sighed and moved away from him slightly. I really didn't know what to do now...it didn't feel right anymore being with him when another should be, but who would ever love me...I'm just...Junk, but other the last few weeks...I felt like someone. Like I belonged. I was happy, I felt alive, but now...I felt like all of that has been drained out of me within a second.
I stood up and started to make my way to the door. I couldn't be here anymore. Not now.
I knew I shouldn't have told her. She's really upset now. I stood up and followed her out of the room, but she didn't get too far, her legs collapsed under her and she was now sitting down on the floor, knees pulled to her chest and I believe she was crying.
I started to walk over to her, but my mother came and dragged me down the stairs for a talk. I really wanted to go cheer Aphro up...but at this rate I'll never be able to. Mother was talking to me about this wedding like she knew the girl. Apparently she had long blonde hair with green eyes. Rich, and was close to royalty. Royalty? I don't want royalty, or a person with a title, I want someone...like Aphrodite.
"I'm not doing this mother; I refuse to marry someone I don't know!"
Not like she would listen, she was trying to point out all the good bits about this, which were a bit tempting but...what's the point when there would be no love... I heard someone come down the stairs and go out of the front door. I hope it wasn't her; she hasn't been out the house alone in weeks and even now gets lost around the house.
Junk. That's what I am.
Something that no one wants, something without a meaning or purpose. I was a fool to think that Jun-Kun would ever love me. Walking through the large garden outside the house, I found myself lost. Silly really how I've lived for her over a month and I still get lost. I wondered over to a fountain that I spotted that me and Jun-kun would sit by and watch the fish swim around, or at least while there were fish in there.
All of the animals seem to avoid me when Jun-Kun isn't with me. Strange, I guess they don't like me either. I watched a bird bathe within the water of the fountain, it was here every day since me and Jun-Kun found it a few weeks back with a broken wing. It looked at me and jumped over to the side, while shaking the water off its feathers. A strange coloured bird it was, all of the other birds would stay away from it, like people would stay away from me.
I sighed slightly and sat on the edge of the fountain, allowing the bird to jump onto my lap and lie down. I stroked its head, waiting, waiting for something or someone to give me a sign that I was wanted.
