4. Never Cross A Crazy Girl
The Witty Writer"I'm planning to get married. To you!" He said, looking straight into my eyes. She stepped toward him, standing very close to him and looking straight into his eyes. When someone tells you a lie, they will often find it difficult to look straight into my eyes, but he isn't. His eyes never left hers. Why? "Sir, there is beauty in truth, even if it's painful. Those who lie twist life to look tasty to the lazy, brilliant to the ignorant, and powerful to the weak. But lies only strengthen our defects. They don't teach anything, help, fix, or cure anything. I'm not sure your reason for marrying me, but my life is at stake. We can try and find good alternatives for you?" The Stranger raised a brow at her, clearly not getting what she meant by that. "You say that we are getting married? I don't know you.

Marry Me, Ms. Stranger 7. Let The Games Begin
I couldn't help but smile at my little sister's innocence. "Why do you want to help me?"She held her in with one arm, sniffled again, and wiped her nose with the back of her hand. "I don't want you to marry the Stranger, but no one listens to me. But you promised you would never talk to us if you got married. I can't lose you, Anita. I have a few friends, and we can hide you in their homes." I smile in relief for the first time. I haven't lost everyone. At least I have my sister on my side. "That's sweet, Lee. He is inimitable and powerful. And the cherry on the top, he is the richest man in New York. Going against him will be as stupid as an adult who doesn't know the answer to 1+1.""Did he find a minister to officiate the wedding?" "I don't know, but something tells me that this wedding will happen today come high or hell water.""Why is he so desperate to marry you? You gave him millions of options to get out of this." "There is nothing more dangerous than a desperate man. He h
Marry Me, Ms. Stranger 8. Shall We Begin?
Breathe in. Breathe out. As my Gramps always said, if deceit and greed are center stages at the wedding, the marriage is on stormy seas from the get-go. Minutes that seemed like hours passed before Anita composed herself took a deep breath, straightened to her full five-foot-eight height, and determined to face her fate. Before she could leave, she heard a knock. It was her instant noodles fiancee’s friend. What was his name? Gosh, she forgot his name. “Anita, you look beautiful.” He walked in with a large floral box, opened it, and handed me the most beautiful traditional round wedding bouquet I have ever seen. “Traditionally, the groom buys the bride’s bouquet, right? And you look exquisite.” I blew air out of my mouth. “Why do I have to carry flowers?” I know I’m whining like a child at my wedding, but she is in the tornado’s eye right now, and she can’t see anything but her life swirling around her.He smiled charmingly, ignoring her rudeness, “I know you would ask this questi
Marry Me, Ms. Stranger 9. Mr. and Mrs. King
Anita saw a tall, well-built guy in his early fifties with blond hair standing in the middle to officiate the wedding. He smiled as she looked at him, confused. Dearly beloved, we have come together in the presence of God to witness and bless the joining of Alexander King and Anita Lewis in Holy Matrimony. Life sometimes throws things at you, you don’t want, but they turn out to be exactly what you need. Many a time, the wrong decision you made at the right time is better than the right decision you made at the wrong time. There is always something to lose. But maybe more to gain. Home isn’t where you are from. It’s from where you find light when all goes dark. I pray you both find the light in each other. Don’t ignore your blessings. Simply it’s not packed the way you expect them to be. Not everything comes gift-wrapped and with a bow. And so, in the presence of the Church, I ask you to state your intentions. Mr. King and Anita looked into each other’s eyes. Anita leaned in and whis
Marry Me, Ms. Stranger 10. Suffering is Just Suffering
She needed to recuperate from Mr. King’s surprising devotion. He had played his part well, too well. She brushed her fingers across her lips moments before Mr. King had planted his most passionate kiss yet. He had ignited a charge in her that began slowly and increased with the pressure of his lips. By the time he pulled away, her body wanted to explode. Her head swirled, and his friend shouted for more. She did not know Mr. King kissed that well, not that she had much experience. The kiss wasn’t part of the deal. She wanted a moment to herself; she needed to regroup. She ran to her room. She put her elbows on the table to rest her pounding head. This wasn’t how her life was supposed to pan out. But, the shock of her now-husband demanding to marry him, his callousness and devil-may-care attitude, was slowly seeping into her. All it took was one poor decision. Now her life is in shambles. It was all because of Ken; if only he showed up at the wedding? She picked up her phone and wonder
Marry Me, Ms. Stranger 11. Hard To Please
"I can't believe you are defending them. Our sorry your parent's actions have left me no choice. Sometimes suffering is just suffering. It doesn't make you stronger. It doesn't build character. The only thing that hurts is. I will get changed." She changed into a white dress belted in with a broad blue ribbon. The dress came down to below her knees to her mid-calf. Sleeves were trimmed with a light beige. Her hair into a French twist with wispy tendrils hanging down her neck. She refused any makeup and just applied lip gloss on her dry lips. "You look beautiful." Lee smiled as if she had won the lottery. "I will miss you." Anita hugged Lee as they both fought tears. They pulled back when they heard a knock on the door. It was the minister who officiated their wedding. Before she could reply, she heard her husband's voice."Ani, this is Daniel, my bodyguard, driver, confidante, and my second father." Anita felt her nostrils flare. "My name is Anita, not Ani. And no offense, Sir, yo
Marry Me, Ms. Stranger 12. Welcome Home
“Honey, did it ever occur to you that some people just don’t care about money? Fine, you can make whatever you want to happen with the snap of a finger, but you can’t give someone the ability to love you, can you?”He remained silent as we sat in eerie silence for a few moments. He still didn’t know what to say to my last stab.“Daniel, please pull over.” It was about time, and she will put a full stop to this marriage drama.“No” was my only husband’s response. “Listen, why don’t you go home and re-evaluate your unreasonable expectations? Where you’ll inevitably do nothing because the minute you figure out how the wedding happens in the real world works, you will tap out.” “No” “Please don’t be silly. We are talking seriously. You don’t want to end up in a loveless marriage, do you?”“I’m married. We-Are-Married.” He repeated, enunciating each word as if talking to a young child.“I spent my entire life making other people happy. It’s time I find happiness the only way I see possi
