"Well you see ..." my mom began.
" Just remember it's for your own good and we did this because we love you" my dad said .
Now I was even more worried, they would never start a conversation like that if something big wasn't up.
"What?" I asked worried .
" Your sort of engaged " my mom blurted out quick .
What ? did I hear that right ? Was my ears playing a trick on me ?
Shocked I awnserd " Um ... I think I would remember if I was engaged " as I laughed it off thinking this must've been some joke or prank their doing on me for we're quite the jokesters in this family as mentioned before
" Actually no, because it's been an arranged marriage since birth" my dad chimed in sounding very serious and very calm , as if this was the most normal conversation like talking about the weather .
Then realizing this wasn't a joke and they weren't kidding .I shouted " A what !? How could you do this to me !"
" Now Tiffany Rose Ross don't raise your voice " my mother commanded.
"No, no it can't be , I'm only 17 ... How am I supposed to be a 'wife' at my age, I can barely be a daughter to you ! And with who ? Who's dumb enough to marry a 17 year old ?" I asked not knowing what to expect anymore . My whole world came crashing down in mere 5 minutes . Making me wonder who's responsible for this bomb my mom just dropped. I mean they must've gotton a ton of money out of this or something , because who would just give away their daughter, their only daughter for that matter to some stranger ! So it kind of makes sense if money was a part of the deal . right?
My mother shrugged saying two words I've never heard before and quite frankly never want to ever again " Alexander Tatum" .
I paused for a moment taking in the words my mother just said . Processing this new found information.
Alexander Tatum , Alexander Tatum I said over and over again in my head . This was the guy that's ruining my life . No ! This isn't going to work I will fight against it with everything I've got I'm not going through with this. there's no way they can make me. I'm almost 18 , practically an adult, they can't tell me what to do !
I'll just make him hate me . Make him reject me , or simply not want to marry me anymore. Yeah...then I'll have my life back again. I thought to myself
Alexander Tatum you are not going to want to marry me and that's a promise.
A/N sorry guys the first few chapters are a bit short when I started first writing the book but it gets longer as the story goes on
