WHAT!!! MY MARRIAGE
I stared at my dad in shock still trying to process what he just said before I heard him say.
"Son, many people your age are married so you better get married soon, for now go and freshen up and come down for dinner".
.
I was about to say something to him when he suddenly looked at me with a face that said you brought this on yourself. I stared at him for his second before I inwardly told him to bring it on, I was not going to give up so easily. After that I went to freshen up leaving him there as he kept smiling uncontrollably.

I just finished taking a shower and decided to go down for dinner. I took one last look in the mirror to check if I was ready. My short brown silky hair that stopped right after my head was still a little wet, I had reddish brown eyes which always seemed to be drawing the attention of girls as they were always drooling over me at work.
Although I never really cared and always focused on my work, people even thought I was gay but I was not, I just didn't have any interest in girls.......yet.
I quickly dismissed my thoughts and went downstairs for dinner, on my way there I overhead my parents talking.
At first I had no intention of evesdropping so I decided to just work past their room when I heard them talking about someone ME.

( Honey are you sure this is a good idea. I heard my mom say.
Yes I'm sure it's for his own good, if I keep pressuring him to get married he will be forced to become the heir to my business, any decision he makes will be beneficial to me said my dad with a mysterious grin ).....
So this is what it's all about your plan is not going to work Dad. I'm sorry but I have to spoil them.

POV FAITH:
I was dressing up for dinner at the Williams house. I still thought this was a bad idea because I didn't even know any of the Williams I only heard they owned the third best company in the city the DK company.
I suddenly wondered why my Dad didn't think of fixing an alliance with the RK company, I mean they were the second best, why would he go for the third best when there was a second best, I wondered if there was a mystery surrounding this but I didn't have time to think about this now as I suddenly heard a knock on my door.
Knock!!! knock!!!. My thoughts were interrupted by the knock on the door from my mom. Come in. I said as I quickly glanced at the mirror to make sure I was ready.
Dear it's time to go to hurry up. Said my mom as she quickly rushed out again. Okay mom I'll be right there. I said to no one in particular and she had already left before I could finish my sentence, I wondered why she seemed to be in a hurry.
( INSIDE THE CAR)
Dad how could you agree to this dinner I don't even know who their son is. I started still trying to reason with my dad as I really didn't want to go through all the trouble of having to cut this alliance but all I heard him say was.
You better shut up your mouth young lady I don't want you to go there and tell everyone that you don't want to get married, so better compose yourself. We are going for the dinner and you're going to talk to Jack.
Jack was the name of the person they wanted me to marry. He was a spoilt brat who always got everything he wanted at the snap of a finger, or so I heard. Anyways whether the rumors were true or not I really didn't care all I wanted to do was break the alliance so I tried to reason with my dad again by saying.
" Dad you want me to marry that spoilt brat how could you do this to your own daughter, why".... He didn't let me finish before he suddenly caught me off.
Shh, lower your voice we are already here. As we entered the mansion I wasn't surprised by how big it was. The garden was as big as a park and there was a pool at the back of the house, but I must say the interior decor was very beautiful as it was painted with white and gold.
We stepped in and greeted the Williams and I quickly stepped forward to execute my plan, as I didn't want to waste anytime with these people.
Good morning Mr and Mrs Williams I don't want to waste any of your time so I'm going straight to the point. I do not agree to this marriage and I'm sorry for the inconvenience but if you still insist of this marriage then I have to date Jack for at least a year to decide if I want to marry him. That is all I have to say.
Okay then let's cut this dinner short after 1 year of dating Jack you will decide if you want to marry him. Said Mr Williams surprising both me and my dad who will seemed to be staring at me in absolutely disappointment. Even the Williams seemed to be surprised at my courage.
After thinking for a while I finally said. "Okay thank you Mr William I'll take my leave now, goodbye".
As we stepped out side the William's house my dad quickly looked at me with angry eyes but said nothing and just left with my mom who turned around and flashed me is sweet smile.
..........
Jack are you okay with this, I mean are you going to be patient enough to wait for one whole year.
No Dad but I will try my best to make her love me she is mine and only mine. (Hahaha, evil laugh)
Besides I have other plans of my own but I simply can't tell you that. said Jack whispering to himself.
