"Miss are you ready to order?" another waiter came to meet me, "No I am waiting for someone," I dismissed politely. "Can you tell me what's going on outside?" I asked. "Oh a young man is trying to get in without a reservation," the waiter told me. "Oh, thanks," I said.I stood up and decided to investigate myself, I also needed to call Min Jun. He was ignoring my calls. "Min," I said. He looked at me and turned to the waiter who was holding him. "See, now do I need reservations?" he asked and shook the waiter's hand of him."I have been trying to call you all night," I said to him. "I was stuck," he said. I led him to our table and we got seated. "My bad, I should have waited for you outside and I am so sorry I kept you waiting, I had to go for chemotherapy," I said. He nodded and picked up the menu."So what are you ordering?" he asked. "Probably steak," I said. "I guess I'll have that too," he said. I waved to the waiter and gave our orders. "So huh, how was your day?" I asked him.
I stood staring at Min Jun's disappearing body. Why was he suddenly so angry? All I did was suggest he wore better clothes. "Miss we have to leave?" her driver said to her. She looked at the dark and then at her driver. "Let's go home," she said and got into the car.I stared at my dad's figure standing by the door waiting for us. The driver left me in front of my father and drove off to the garage. "Hey Father," I said and attempted to go inside. "Do you realize what the time is?" her father asked her. "Apa, let me go in," she whined. "It is 10 Pm, you were expected at home by 8 pm," Dad said to me."I got the chemotherapy to please you and Mom, staying out a little longer should be my reward," I argued. "Who was he?" Dad asked. "Who was who?" I asked. "The man you were with?" Dad asked."The man I am getting married to. And I would like to keep our relationship private," I defended. "Who are his parents?" Dad asked me. "It's cold," I whined. "Answer me," Dad yelled. "My head hurts,"
"Everyone hates me," I yelled, I sat down and wiped my tears. I took a berry and ate it. "These are really nice, you should try some," I said and offered LIn Fei a blueberry, he looked at me and then at my parents. "Your daughter is crazy," he said. "You dare insult the heir of the Lin family's wealth? i asked him. He looked shocked and insulted. He turned to my parents and shook his head, he was probably disappointed. I can't blame him, I would be disappointed too. "I am calling off this wedding, I can't marry someone who is crazy," he said and stood up abruptly,he left the dinning table without hesitation and didn't listen to mom and dad's call. "Mei," dad called my name and looked at me sternly before he got up and went after Lin Fei. "You better have an explanation for this," mom said and went after them. What other explanation do they need other than the fact that I didn't want to get married to a complete stranger. I grabbed the bowl of fruits and walked to the living room to m
Why were my parents always treating me like a child? I am already 21, I am a legal adult and i deserve a chance to prove that I could do things my own way. I was going to plan a date for them to meet with Min Jun and this time I am not going to give them a chance to decline. They either accept that I have chosen the man I want to spend the rest of my life or forget about attending my wedding. I got to my room and decided to talk to Min Jun about the wedding, when we met last night, he walked off angrily. i needed to find out why and make him apologize for calling me a bad person. I wasn't like every other rich person he had met, I am the overprotected, social awkward daughter of a rich dad. I dialled his number and watched it ring. Was he really going to be like this, making me beg for his attention, I was paying him for this, the least he could do was do his part right. "What do you want?" Min Jun asked. I was shocked at the tone of his voice, I didn't know he had pick up the call
“Where are the cloths?" Mom asked immediately I walked into the house. "What clothes?" I asked and immediately realised my mistake, i told mom earlier that I was going to go get clothes. "What clothes? I couldn't pick anything, I am so used to you always being there that I couldn't decide on my own," I lied, Mom looked at me for a quick second and looked away. "I will have to go back tomorrow, maybe find something I might like," I said unsure of my excuse. "Should I come with you?" Mom asked me and I quickly shook my head. "Mei?" She questioned. "Are you okay?" She asked. "Yeah mom I am fine," I said. Her eyes looked questioning, I was panicking, she was going to know I was lying. "Mom the reason I couldn't even decide on what to wear today is because you always decide what I wear. I need to be able to make decisions on my own"."I am going to get married soon and I should be able to make decisions on my own without you interfering," I said. "Fine," she said and I went to my room.
"Apa,"I whispered. "Mei eat your food," Mom ordered. I looked at dad but he wasn't looking my way. "Apa, I am sorry," I said. "Mei eat your food," Dad said this time. I nodded and stuffed a piece of meat in my mouth. I stared at the spaghetti in my plates and played around with it. I had lost my appetite, all I wanted to do was go back to my room. The last time I got scolded by my parents I was ten and I tore my dress while playing in then garden. "You can go have your dinner in your room," Dad excused. I shook my head and remained seated. "I will eat here, don't worry about me," I said and ate a spoonful of spaghetti. "It's delicious," I said. Dad nodded and i forced a smile on my face. The atmosphere was making it so hard for me to swallow. "Mei if you want o go to your room, you can leave," Dad offered but I rejected his offer again. "If you don't want to eat again, that's fine," Dad said. "It's fine," I said and to prove it to him, I ate another spoonful of spaghetti and smile
"What?" Min Jun asked me, I ignored him and peeped through the racks of clothing, Min Jun copied me and stuck his head into the rack of clothing. I pulled him back and gave him a look of disapproval. "What?" He asked me. "Do you want to get caught?" I asked him. "By who?" He asked confused. "By my mom, she's in the store catch on," I said to him. "How was I supposed to know?" He asked me but I still ignored him and watched out for Mom. "We need to get out here," I said and pulled him hiding and navigating my way through the racks of clothing trying to avoid Mom. "Aren't we going to pay for the dress?" Min Jun whispered. "This would have put us in the spotlight," I said and tried to return the dress. "No don't do that, the dress was made for you," He said and it only took me a moment to decide my answer. Risking the chance of being caught, we got to the counter and paid the bills for the dress. "Hey, we didn't get you anything," I said. "Should we go to another fashion store?" I asked
We finally got home and I walked into the house, I told my driver goodnight and walked into the house. "Good evening," I greeted my parents who stopped talking the moment I walked into the house. Dad nodded in acknowledgment while Mom asked how my day went. "It was good, finally got clothes without your help," I said and showed her the bags of clothes I was holding. "I went shopping today," Mom said. "Oh! You went shopping too?" I asked her, pretending to be curious like I didn't see her in the mall. " Why did you go shopping? No bad people to put in prison?" I asked Mom. "Your dad can put them in prison for me," SHe said. "Do you want to see what I got you?" she asked leading us to her room. "You are already walking aren't you?" I joked while trailing her. She turned to look at me, stared at me for a while, and went on walking. She pulled the door open and I followed behind her, she closed the door and I sat on her bed. "Here," She said pulling a pink dress from a shopping bag. "I g
