Chapter 7 - I AGREED

"Y/N, this is the last time I'm asking you this, are you going to marry him? Yes or no!"

"Dad...I..."

What's the point of even asking me!

It's not like your going to listen to what I have to say.

...I get up from the sofa and start making my way upstairs.

"Y/N, come back!" He shouts. Again, something that he never did before.

Every time I hear dad's voice, my pace becomes faster and before long I was already running.

I went to roof...that's where I always go when I need some time by myself or just want to escape from reality.

It's already been half an hour and I guess they already gave up searching for me... after all, I'm just a deal right? My happiness doesn't matter!

As I bury my head on my knees with my arms hugging them tightly, I start to smelling something...

...hot chocolate?!

"I knew you would be here, Miss Y/N!"

"Mia?!"

I was surprised to see her, but then again...how could I forget!

Whenever I was here alone, after a while, Mia would always come in, holding a cup of hot chocolate.

"You know me so well!"

"I'm your maid after all."

We both smile, as she hands me the cup and sits next to me.

I take a sip....the warm, sweet smell, melts my heart!

We both continue to sit quietly on the cold, wooden floor when she suddenly breaks the silence...

"Miss Y/N... I know it's not my business but, I think, you should listen to your heart! I know that it's a very difficult decision but then again....god does things for a reason! I know you hate him, it's ok, you don't have to force yourself to love him, just maybe act like a happy couple, for your dad, perhaps? And also, you don't know him very well, so maybe if you get to know him better... you might end up liking him, little by little?"

Well, maybe she's not completely wrong; I indeed know nothing about him and the only way dad will be happy is to marry that guy but...

....I look at Mia and give her a reassuring smile, I don't want her to worry, this is my fight!

We continue gazing at the stars as my eyes slowly start to feel heavy, guess all the commotion really affected me.

TIME SKIP-MORNING

"Miss Y/N! Quickly wake up!!!"

I slowly open my eyes, feeling the comfort of my bed underneath me...the warm blanket, the little bit of sunlight coming from the curtains...

...wait, what?

I unlock my eyes wide open, as I start to remember what happened yesterday.

Mia certainly didn't bring me all the way to my room, I might not be that heavy but she's not strong either.

Dad probably didn't even know I was there, even if he did, he would have been too angry with me...

.....what about....no, no way he will help me!

I quickly get off my bed, still, half asleep, I reach out for my bathroom door but I end up opening my room one.

"Oh hey, babe!"

I look up and rube my eyes while my vision slowly starts becoming clear.

"My... saviour!"

I cry tears of joy, as I see Lauren.

"Lauren! Lauren! Laureeennnn!!!" (crying her heart out)

"It's ok I'm here now!"

We both enter my room as I close the door. I make her sit on my bed and start telling her what happened, thankfully Mia already told her most of it on the phone so I didn't need to rush as Lauren had to attend a meeting later.

"That fucking idiot!"

She starts cursing at the freak and it made me feel better so I started cursing as well!

TIME SKIP-2 HOURS AFTER THE CURSING COMPETITION

"Argh, I'm so worn out!"

I look at Lauren who looked like she was plotting something.

"Ok! I have an idea! Why don't you just agree to the marriage, then make him fall in love with you, and then (evil smirk), and then break his heart so he will, want, a divorce!"

I look at her with sparkling eyes!

"You're a genius, my love!"

"I know, I know!"

We both start laughing and sadly it was time for Lauren to go.

I'm not a bad person but, it's your fault I have to take these measures!

TIME SKIP-NEXT DAY

Finally, It's the time! I've spent the whole day yesterday, planning for all the tricks we need to use to achieve our goal!

The operation, break freaks heart- full power!

I take a deep breath as I make my way to dad's office which is right next to his bedroom.

Knock'-knock'

"Yes, come in!"

I slowly step inside. I look at him but as expected he ignores me!

"Dad, umm, well, I thought about it a lot, and...I think that you were right!"

Dad's head shoots up towards me, he knew what was coming.

"I...I'm going to marry that fre...I mean that businessman!"

His face lightens up, as he smiles brightly!

He comes to me in a hurry and gives me a warm hug.

"My lovely daughter, I knew you would listen to your daddy for sure!"

If only you were happy for something else, I wouldn't have to fake smile right now!

After the hug, he tells me how proud he was of me and stuff like that, but his compliments didn't make me feel any better.

I had a smile on my face till the end, but that smile was hiding a massive amount of pain behind it...

....if only you knew how hard it is for your daughter!

I make my way outside and start walking like a depressed, drunk, emotionless person until I reach the living room.

"What's with the long face?"

Seriously! Why does he always have to be here when I don't want to see him the most.

"Hello? You deaf?"

"Yes, I am! Your annoying voice has messed up my ears and your ugly presence has made me believe that demons really do exist!"

After saying my words, I glare at him and make my way to the kitchen...

"Ouch!"

Before I could even take another step, he pulls my hand suddenly which makes both of us fall on the sofa, making me position on top of him.

"Hey! let me go, you perverted freak!"

He pins both of my hands on either side of my head...

"What you gonna do princess?"

"You...."

Before I could say anything, we...

...made an unwanted connection...
