"Saturday?!" I exclaimed as I stood from my seat. "That's in two days time. How is that even going to be possible?""Oh my dear." Mrs Norman said. "I understand that you think this is close but I need you to also understand that this needs to be done so soon.""But why?" I asked. "I mean, why the rush? We've got enough time.""Are you interested in this or not?" Ace stated, causing me to turn to him."I--I..." I tried to speak but my dad caught me in."The thing is that she's so worried about the expenses. That's it." He stated and let out a shaky chuckle.My parents, dumbest human in the world. All they cared for was money. They didn't even care about my feelings. How could they agree to get their daughter married to a random person who proposetwo days ago? I didn't expect less though."Oh, the money." Mr Norman finally spoke. "We understand that you guys don't hav

I stared at myself in the mirror. I looked so stressed out and weary. I could hardly sleep. I was in a crazy dilemma. A dilemma that didn't worth my thought or time.Even when I tried to sleep, Ace's words attacked me in my dream. I had been threatened a lot in my life, but none of it seemed so scary like Ace's. I wondered how he did that. His glare alone, frightened me so bad. How on Earth was I going to survive, if I got married to him?I sighed and walked to my door, opening it, and shutting it gently as soon as I was out. Although my mind wasn't supporting my decision, I was willing to do it for Mrs Norman. It wouldn't be nice to hurt the old lady. I was willing to listen to whatever he had to say. What if he was only sputtering false threat? And what if he was being serious? I was so puzzled. How could my own life be confusing me?I walked down the stairs, carefully, and observed everyone in the living room. M

I boiled vigorously within me, as I stared at Ace. He tightened his hands into a fist like he was going to hit me soon, and glowered irritatingly. I turned to Mrs Norman again. She looked so worried and suddenly seemed pale. She turned from my gaze and bent her head, staring at her laps and clinging her fingers against one another. Was she crying? Or praying? "Pardon?" The priest said, causing me to turn to him. I was zoned off in my thought that I totally forgot I was getting married. Ace's threat were the only things I could think of. "Oh, I'm so sorry." I apologized. I turned to the crowd. Their eyes were vehemently on me. They all seemed shocked. "Oh sorry everyone, I--I'm just so excited. I was so zoned off that I didn't realize when he asked me that. Sorry again." I uttered, and let out a fake chuckle. 

"Please Ace." I cried. "I'm not ready for this. Please." I pleaded.He moved back a little and stared into my eyes. "What's with your courage now?" He asked."I don't know. Just let me go." I begged vehemently."There's one thing you need to know. When I say something, that's what I do." He uttered."Can't you hire a lady to comfort you?" I asked, almost crying.I couldn't just let him have me like that. Even my lover didn't touch me for more than a year we were together, and here was the guy I only knew for four days, trying to hook up with me."Who told you I need your comfort?" He asked as he smirked at him.What was he saying again? He didn't need my comfort? What did he even want? He was earnestly confusing my already confused self.Before I could ask anything further, he stood a bit and jolted at my neck and kneel, holding me up with

I stared at the amazing area, as we drove through the streets. I had never seen anything so beautiful like the place, in my entire life. It was a true definition of elegance. The estate expelled big houses. It was obviously for the rich and big guys. The more we drove, the more enticing the place was. It was really great to have fun. Maybe I could come out in a while to enjoy myself. At least, that could save me from his stress. And soon, he honked in front of a high fence. The outside was beautiful too. The huge gate opened up and we drove into a long drive way. We got out of the car as soon as we packed it in the garage. Even the garage was a gigantic one.I couldn't help but wide open my mouth and eyes. Was this his house? This was definitely the reason he thought I needed his money. I had never seen anything like it before. The compound was so large, and the building which was suspended in middle, was enormously huge
