Remy cursed loudly as he went up the stairs and banged the door of his room before collapsing on his bed. He stayed on the bed face down for a while before be couldn't breath anymore and shifting he stared up at the ceiling and tried to figure out what to do. His father was always telling him what to do and how to do it. Before it was just tiny things and Remy hadn't minded that much. But what his father had just told him was unacceptable. "You can't just walk into your 18 year old son's room and just announce to him that he is getting married in a week." Remy thought angrily as her replayed his father's commanding voice in his head. How could he possibly expect Remy to just go through with it and that too with that spoilt brat Belladonna? Sure Remy had flirted with her once in a while during his father's business parties but he just could not even begin to imagine what living with her and basically being with her and having to listen to her whine and complain every single moment for the rest of his life. They would definitely end up killing each other.
Why did Remy have to sacrifice everything in his life jus so his father can make another of his stupid business deals and make another million or two with which he would try to buy everyone around him. His brother had fallen for his father's lies and had gotten married to Merci and sure they had a great life together and had fallen in love with each other but that did not mean that it would happen with him too. Considering the fact that it was Belladonna he would be getting married to he was absolutely certain that his life would turn into a living hell if he went through with it.
So Remy decided right at that instant that he would never let his father walk all over him and order him about ever again. He was 18 now and was quite capable of taking care of himself. Besides he had all that money left over from all those jobs he had done without his father's knowledge. It wasn't enough to live on but it would last till he went to another place and found a job. So he packed up everything that he would need and after leaving a note for his Tante Mattie and brother Henri he slipped out of the house by climbing off his balcony. He ran out of the gates making sure that none of is father's men had seen him.
He briefly stopped at the garage to take one last look at the beloved bike that had helped him make his last minute getaways too many times to count. He then went to the nearest train station and got a ticket to Venice. He had a friend living in Venice who would surely help him out for a while before he could make it on his own. Remy smiled quietly as he anticipated his future and how different it would be from the life he had been leading all this while. No more taking orders from anyone. He was free to do whatever he wanted now and Remy couldn't wait for his new life to begin.
So what do you think of the story so far. Plz R&R
