If You Can't Beat Them...

Habromania: delusions of happiness

Drapetomia: an overwhelming urge to run away

Ilunga: a person who will forgive anything, the first time, tolerate it the second time, but never the third.

........

It has been love at first, but then popularity came through and everything was about to change forever and way too fast.

First it was the family, everything seemed so pitch perfect and lovely, something to aspire to, something so sweet it was almost fake.

Then it was the group, all the changes, and the first child, an accident, but he was loved nonetheless.

Tours then began, months away or sometimes a whole year or more, but it was always worthy the first times, and then the second child came, they quite didn't remember if he was an accident or anything else but they accepted it.

Albums, songs, press conferences, tours it all became a routine after that, always the same but at least in the end, he always came home.

Then something switched on again...soon after the third child, the husband was still lovely but he was away more than before, rarely coming back home or not at all, rarely calling in and when it all happened he was nervous and tired.

He began to travel more, by himself or with his friends, more parties came in and she was always left alone, by choice or not it didn't matter anymore, she was in fact alone with too much time in her hands and 4 children to manage.

She didn't see what she still called her husband in a year and a half, he was somewhere around the world, probably too busy with some other new interest to care.

The rarest times he was home they would always fight, and after that he was once more out the door to wherever he liked to go those days, doing whatever he loved to do.

She manage to keep calm, not for herself, but for what she considered her family still, for what she had left, their original love completely missing, her life lost. Regrets soon started to be her only company.

Then hard times came in, his former husband was lost. Depression came in, they tried, for a while all seemed normal again, two more children came into their family, maybe it was the right path…after all.

But then, unexpectedly she took another hit, this time the final one.

He was again on his old path, old habits kicked in again, but now more evident than before, now he was shameless and she can't take it anymore, that true love that once was, wasn't there anymore.

Everything now was just fake, the perfect image of a happy family just the perfect cover for the press, the perfect facade to sell themselves to the world.

Yes quite perfect indeed.

She wasn't angry, how could she. At this point she didn't blamed him anymore. It was pointless, but the image, the fake happiness had to stays on.

For their family or part of it and for the world to see..

A compromise.

Note: another twist of a fairytale

Gaming flag I guess...
